Flying in to save the day and deliver to us a brand new DC cinematic universe, it's 'Superman', the much-anticipated James Gunn reboot of the Man of Steel! And the film had a lot of lifting to do, with high expectations of the new cast, a brighter beginning to an upcoming and interconnected film and TV slate, and the hit and miss inconsistency of the Snyderverse fresh in our hearts. So does the film deliver? Is DC's marquee hero redeemed on the big screen? Ian Kerner and I connected to discuss the film, its comic book origins, and what to expect next from the new DCEU!

Marvel's latest Disney+ series 'Ironheart' zoomed onto TV screens without much fanfare. But did that reflect a low level of confidence in the 6-episode series or an overcrowded media landscape? After spinning off from 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' and Marvel's Iron Man books, does the character have what it takes to stand on her own? Ian Kerner joins me to discuss all six episodes (so SPOILERS!), what they introduce to the MCU, where we'll see Riri Williams and her supporting cast again, and more! Also, we pay tribute to the late great Marvel EIC Jim Shooter.

Marvel's not-so-superteam of rejects has finally hit the big screen... and do they prove to be enough to save the day? We've met characters like the second Black Widow, Red Guardian, The Winter Soldier, U.S. Agent, Taskmaster, and Ghost on the big screen before. How about The Sentry? Who is he and what does his appearance mean for the MCU? Who are the Thunderbolts anyways and what are their comic book origins? Most importantly: does the movie work? There's a lot to talk about with this one so I've got Comic Book Encyclopedia Ian Kerner himself here to chop things up with me and deliver the deep cuts!
