Introducing Cape or Cap: A Black Nerd Superhero Podcast! Hosted by Chamar Griffith and Andrew Tejada, two lifelong friends and proud Blerds who’ve been geeking out over superhero content together since 1996.
For the last 3 years, we've been covering DC animation and now we’re bringing our unique perspective to the other worlds of superheroes with a blend of culture, humor, and sharp critiques. Today, you'll get a chance to hear who we are and our plans for this new series as we explain what's a "cape" (it’s fire) and what's a "cap" (it’s a flop).
Get ready for a fresh, unapologetically Black take on the superhero multiverse—whether you’re deep in comic lore or just along for the ride!

We were rocked by the news of the passing of James Earl Jones, an EGOT achiever and a pioneer for Black actors in the entertainment industry. Known for his extensive and acclaimed roles on stage as King Lear, Othello, and Jack Jefferson; on screen in Field of Dreams, Coming to America, and Meteor Man; and through his voice as Darth Vader and Mufasa—his presence on Earth will be missed, but his impact will not be forgotten.
Today, we honor James Earl Jones's memory. May he rest in peace.
*Please excuse our usage of the wrong last name for James Earl Jones' character in The Great White Hope. While Jack Johnson was the real boxer who the story was about, James Earl Jones played the character Jack Jefferson in both the stage and film adaptation. Once again, we apologize for the error*
The End. Chamar and Andrew are back with yet another episode as we wrap our coverage of the Tomorrowverse with the final film in this trilogy and this universe, Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part Three. At the end, stay tuned for a special announcement about our show!
As always, we are here to ask the big questions: Does the story make sense? How does it compare to the comic? Is it a good addition to the universe? And most importantly, where do we go from here?
