Listen Later

This week the Summer of Superheroes continues with our look at the deeply implausible romance of Guillermo Del Toro's original Hellboy movie!

Join in as we discuss Ron Perlman's performance, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Nazi occultism, and Marvel's Son of Satan.

Plus: Why wasn't David Hyde Pierce credited for voicing Abe Sapien? What exactly was Rasputin's goal? And, most importantly, is there a single person who likes John?

Next week: Mystery Men (1999)
