James Gunn hit Threads with a fresh round of DCU answers, so we go full Gunn Show this week.

We dig into what Gunn said about DCU Batman and The Brave and the Bold, how they are avoiding stepping on Matt Reeves’ Batman plans, and what that means for the timeline on getting concrete DCU Batman details. We also hit the latest on Superman: Man of Tomorrow, including what is and is not being telegraphed right now, plus some production notes that help paint the bigger picture.

#batman #dccomics #jamesgunn

Happy 2026. DC news is slow right now, so we did what we do best and talked Batman.

We touch on the Sebastian Stan casting chatter, where Matt Reeves is at with The Batman Part II, and how the DCU is still laying groundwork with Gods and Monsters and Clayface finally bringing us to Gotham. Then we get into the main event, a full binge rewatch of Batman The Animated Series and the Red Sky season, what holds up, what hits different as adults, and why this era of DC animation still sets the bar.

We also talk Robin and Nightwing dynamics, Batgirl’s bigger role, the Superman and Supergirl crossover, and whether Batman Beyond is next on the rewatch list.

New episodes every Friday at 4:30 PM ET.

#batman #sebastianstan #batmantheanimatedseries

This is our final episode of the year.

With DC in a moment of transition and the holidays slowing everything down, we decided to close things out with a relaxed, all DC conversation driven by listener questions. We talk about comics, movies, animation, fandom, Batman, Superman, and why DC keeps pulling us back year after year.

This episode covers everything from confusing comic storylines and underused characters to the strengths and growing pains of DC right now. No breaking news, no hot takes for clicks, just a genuine end of year conversation about the stories and characters we love.

Thank you to everyone who supported the show this year. We’re taking a short break and will be back in the new year.

#DCU #dccomics #dc

This week we break down everything happening with the Netflix Paramount Warner Brothers situation and what it means for the future of DC. There is a lot of noise out there so we focused on the hard facts as of December 10th. What Netflix is actually buying. What Paramount is actually offering. How the breakup fees work. What regulators are already saying. And where DC Studios and the DCU land inside all of this.

We also talk about why a Netflix owned Warner Bros might be a better outcome for DC fans than a Paramount takeover and what the next few months could look like as the board reviews both paths.

If you have been confused about the headlines this episode should help cut through it.

New episodes every Friday at 4:30 PM ET.

#DCJunktion #BatFam #Batman

The Bat-Fam season dropped and we were not prepared for how quickly it landed, so this week we are digging into Episodes 1 and 2 and giving our first impressions before we finish the rest.

We talk about how the show picks up from Merry Little Batman, what works about the tone, why the humor lands better than it has any right to, and how the characters are reimagined in this weird little corner of Gotham. We also get into the Damian and Volcano dynamic, the Dent twins, the beard, the Batmobile, and why this series might be the most unexpectedly fun thing DC has released all year.

If you have watched the season, keep the comments spoiler light while we catch up.

New episodes every Friday at 430 PM ET.

When the DC news cycle slows down, we get back to what started this show in the first place — a real conversation.

This week we’re catching up on everything from the surprisingly solid State Farm Batsuit to the legacy of Kevin Conroy and why Batman The Animated Series still holds up after all these years. It’s a laid-back chat about the things we love, the comics we keep rereading, and the random corners of DC that keep us coming back.

Highlights include:

• The unexpected quality of the State Farm Batsuit

• Remembering Kevin Conroy and revisiting BTAS

• The comics we never stop rereading

• Why quiet weeks bring out the best DC conversations

New episodes every Friday at 4:30 PM ET. Jump in the comments and tell us what’s been on your DC radar lately.
