Toonami Absolution

20-3 - Stan Lee Presents The Condor


Listen Later

Stan Lee is a comics legend. However, in the early-2000s he was producing some very weird things. The Condor or El Condor, or Stan Lee Presents The Condor is a great example of this. This direct-to-DVD movie tries to capture the magic that made Spider-Man and Iron Man household names, but fails in every way imaginable.


This might be one of the worst films we’ve watched on Toonami Absolution, as it features iffy animation, bad voice acting, and a plot that has no idea what it wants to be. However, there is some light, as we get a chance to talk about Stan Lee’s attempt to make a Ringo Starr animated movie.

Toonami Absolution is a weekly podcast where Alyx, Jon, and Sam revisit the Toonami and Adult Swim shows that made them, and you, you.


From the block's early days with shows like Space Ghost: Coast to Coast and Transformers: Beast Wars to the imported anime that made Toonami and Adult Swim appointment television for a generation of kids, such as Cowboy Bebop, Sailor Moon, and Dragon Ball.
