Geek Family Therapy

GFT & Sagas Cross over part duex…. This time we meet Bruce Wayne…  Kal-el was sent to none other but Gotham City in this one shot ElseWorlds event.  Shannon and Kat review and discuss their feelings on the one shot.  Kat discusses attachment theory some more and discusses how secure attachment helps with Post Traumatic Growth.  This episode is a coming of age of Superman and though we see Bruce Wayne and Batman, the portrayal of Batman in this issue is just to show that Bruce is in his adolescence of overcoming the death and trauma of losing his parents as well as the trauma of learning that he is not of this world.  It is not until he fully accepts himself for who he is that he becomes someone greater and that is Superman.

The HCAT squad help Kat talk about the new Marvel Avengers movie End Game.  There are so many topics to discuss and there are so many topics that are missed, but we only had 2 hours to discuss the main characters that are seen in a three-hour movie.

We discuss depression in the MCU; grief and loss & hopelessness.  We totally miss the chance to directly name compassion fatigue that many of the MCU members are suffering from but we do discuss the symptoms.  And ultimately the relationships that everyone has and how they are affected by the snap.
