Come for the multiple references to the 2008 film Jumper, stay for the review of Static Shock season 2 episode "Power Play" that features the first time Richie Foley would get super powers. Richie doesn't develop his own powers but is instead gifted them by a strange man has tried to give him self a catchy nickname. The Good Brothers are quick to point out goes over just as well as when anyone else tries to bestow a nickname upon themselves, and also call out his lack of originality on the others he's bestowed powers upon. Hear the hosts talk about a really good episode showcasing Jason Marsden's acting chops, some very meta voice acting from Phil Lamarr, music that gets a passing grade from the resident harshest critic of Static's soundtrack, and a plot that seems undercut by later seasons and a lack of consequences. Plus the hosts talk about the early 2000s era superhero trend of avoiding classic costumes, which Looney Tunes character the villain reminds one host of and a special preview for next week's final review of the month, all on this week's all new DCAU Review!
