#116 - The DC Comics Super Quiz (of Light!)


Listen Later

Welcome to the only game show brave enough to be powered by an Excel spreadsheet!


Ben hosts Gregory and Tom in the DC Super Quiz of Light, Peace, and the Quickening, a hyper-competitive trivia showdown built around one bizarre discovery: the Justice Society, Justice League, and Super Friends each have exactly 23 pre-Crisis core members. Coincidence? Destiny? Spreadsheet magic?


The rules are simple and ruthless. Name a hero correctly and score points based on how exclusive they are:

  • One team only? Big points.
  • Two teams? Respectable.
  • All three? Congratulations, you played yourself!

Along the way:

  • Old quiz beefs resurface
  • Face and heel turns are declared
  • Detroit-era Justice League members get their due
  • And deep-cut DC lore flies fast and loose!

Expect:

  • Arguments over honorary vs reserve members
  • Title-card technicalities
  • And just how powerful Dr. Fate and the Spectre are allowed to be before the story breaks!

It’s brother vs brother! Threes vs ones!
