Trev and Joe are here to record a quick DOFP episode about recent MCU X-Men casting rumors. But then, an unexpected visit from Uatu the Watcher sends us into the multiverse, where the guys do not host an X-Men podcast, but instead are the hosts of Casting Podmerica, a show about all things Captain America. Perfect timing, as the multiverse Trev & Joe are able to review the recently released Captain America: Brave New World, to share their thoughts on how the movie not only stacks up to the previous Captain America films, but how strong of an MCU entry it is in general, at a time when the overall franchise is arguably struggling. Does the film do Sam Wilson justice? Is Harrison Ford actually good as Thunderbolt Ross? Can the movie's trouble production history be felt in the finished product? Trev & Joe of another world discuss all this, and more!

On this episode, it's Superman's girl friend (two words): Lois Lane! We talk the origins of everyone's favorite "girl reporter" and kick things off with a 1944 story that sees Lois stepping out on her own sans Superman. Then, we zero in on a 1962 issue of Superman's Girl Friend Lois Lane that sees the Daily Planet dynamo be "abandoned" by Superman (and face off against an octopus!) and then discover Superman's secret mermaid family on another planet (yep). We wrap up by discussing Lois on screen, why she doesn't have a more regular solo title and what to expect from Rachel Brosnahan's upcoming portrayal.

We talk her origins from Siegel & Shuster (and Joanne Carter) and then cover an early story from Don Cameron & Ed Dobrotka that sees Lois talk someone off a ledge (literally). We then cover a zany issue of Superman's Girl Friend Lois Lane where Lois faces off against gangsters, an opium smuggler and an octopus without the help of Superman (or so she thinks). Plus, lookout for a truly bizarre Krypton cameo! Later in that issue, Lois discovers Superman has a secret mermaid wife and child on another planet but everything might not be what it appears to be in this story from the pencil of iconic Lois Lane artist Kurt Schaffenberger. We wrap up by sharing our love for Margot Kidder, Elizabeth Tulloch, Teri Hatcher and speculate on how Lois will be portrayed in James Gunn's upcoming film.

Brett and EvilJeff watch Uatu get up to his old tricks in What If...? S3. Nosferatu brightens up our holidays. A Superman trailer dropped! And for good or for ill there are a TON of X-Men books to talk about.

¿Qué mejor manera de celebrar el año nuevo que rodeado de amigos? Hacemos nosotros nuestro propio team up para hablar de la mítica cabecera donde (casi siempre) Spidey se unía a otro amigo invitado. Sin embargo es esta una historia peculiar ya que se trata, cómo no, de una historia navideña y que además el bueno de Peter Parker hace una peculiar versión del clásico de Dickens con nada menos que Uatu, el Vigilante. Y para tal labor tenemos a unos primerizos J.M. DeMatteis y Kerry Gammill que ya dejaban ver los mimbres de los que estaban hechos y que nos dieran glorias futuras. ¡Feliz año nuevo!

We blast off with Riverdale's favorite girl group as Josie and the Pussycats rocket into outer space, first on TV and later in a 2020 comic. We start with the first episode of Josie and the Pussycats very Scooby-Doo original animated series in 1970 before the gang gets "lost in space" in the 1972 follow up. Finally, we launch into the 2020 five-part series that is surprisingly scary! (Think Josie meets John Carpenter's The Thing). All this plus insights from our Josie expert, Ethan from MakeMineAmalgam. Ep. 126 What If Josie and the Pussycats went into outer space?from Comixology & Archie Comics' Josie and the Pussycats in Space #1-5Find us at https://linktr.ee/dearwatchersIn space, no one can hear you scream...for your favorite rock band! Josie, Valerie, Melody, Alan and the Cabot twins are off to outer space, first on their 1972 animated tv series and then in a 2020 ComiXology original comic from Alex De Campi and Devaki Neogi that goes into some surprising horror territory. But first, we talk Josie's first tv series plus where else we'd love Josie and the gang to end up (or what about a meet up with Jem and the Holograms!)

We head to jolly olde Britain to ask the question, what if Superman was British? We tackle 2004's Superman: True Brit, written by Monty Python co-founder John Cleese and Monty Python scholar Kim Howard Johnson with art by John Byrne. This story sees Colin Clark coming of age in rural Britain before moving to the big city to work for a famous tabloid. We talk our love for British comedy, the Elseworlds history of Superman and speculate on what other location or time periods Superman could pop up in. Grab your headphones and a cup of tea and listen up!  Ep. 125 What If Kal-El arrived to earth in rural England to become Colin Clark, repressed British Superman?from DC Comics' Superman: True Brit #1Find us at https://linktr.ee/dearwatchersForget "truth, justice and the American way", it's time to have a stiff upper lip and carry on as Superman is raised British! We cover official Elseworld's Superman: True Brit, co-written by British comedy legend John Cleese and drawn by comics legend John Byrne. This nearly 100 page story sees Superman save The Rutles, impale someone with a cricket bat, meet the Queen and a whole lot more. We also talk Superman's long history in Elseworlds (from the USSR to Tarzan), our backgrounds with Monty Python, where else we'd want to see Kal-El's spaceship crash land and could Batman be as successful in a small rural village?
