Superman is one of the greatest examples in all comicdom of how to be a hero. In this episode we take a look at Superman II and discuss how we feel it holds up.

Superman II is a product of two directors and actors who didn't want to reprise their roles in a movie that was already in production. This movie has a lot of great qualities, but we don't know how great of a movie it is.

Do you think this movie stands up to the standards established by the original movie, or the character? Let us know how you feel about Superman II.

Reel Comic Heroes 024 - Alien

Alien is one of those weird movies that is essentially just a slasher/thriller, but because of how well-made it is, it is regarded often as a classic piece of cinema. And rightfully so.This is a movie about survival in the face of pure terror against a creature that, like Keith Richards, cannot be killed by conventional weapons.

Now that we're in space, we're going to stay there for a while. Our next movie review will be covering Roger Moore's Moonraker.

194 - Star Trek: Nemesis with Alex Thompson-Forte & Jonathan Howell

The crew of the Enterprise is back for one last big-screen adventure, and this episode is boldly going where we’ve gone several times before: straight into the Star Trek universe! This time, we’re joined by returning guests Jonathan Howell and Alex Thompson-Forte to tackle 2002's Star Trek: Nemesis.

With Captain Picard facing an enemy with a very familiar face, the Romulans causing their usual amount of trouble, and the Enterprise crew dealing with everything from weddings to warbirds, there's plenty to discuss. Is Nemesis a fitting final voyage for The Next Generation crew? How does a young Tom Hardy hold up against Patrick Stewart? And can four grown men have a perfectly normal conversation about Star Trek without getting sidetracked into the Final Frontier?

And Alex can be found on Independence Day Minute, Galaxy Quest Minute

192 - Die Another Day with Ryanne Bennett

James Bond has faced megalomaniacs, henchmen, and the occasional shark tank... but can he survive the early 2000s? This week on Reel Comic Heroes, we're joined by special guest Ryanne Bennett to take on Die Another Day, Pierce Brosnan's fourth and final mission as 007.

From over-the-top action to gadgets that definitely stretched the limits of "plausible," we're revisiting one of the most hotly debated Bond films ever made. Does it deserve its infamous reputation, or is there more to this diamond-studded adventure than people remember? Along the way, we celebrate 40 years of Bond on the big screen, laugh at some truly wild creative choices, and try to decide just how much is too much when it comes to secret agents.

So grab your favorite martini, keep an eye out for invisible cars, and join us for a lively, spoiler-filled conversation that's equal parts Bond appreciation and well-deserved roasting.

191 - Austin Powers in Goldmember with Johnie Powers & Jonathan Howell

The mojo is back as Johnie Powers and Jonathan Howell return to Reel Comic Heroes to help us close out the Austin Powers trilogy with Goldmember. We dive into the biggest, boldest, and weirdest entry in the series, discussing Mike Myers playing just about everybody, the franchise's ever-growing love of callbacks, and whether this final adventure still has the comic magic that made the original films pop—or if it's simply too much of a good thing.

Along the way, we talk memorable gags, surprising cameos, and the challenge of wrapping up one of the most quotable comedy franchises of the early 2000s. So grab a smoke and a pancake, settle in, and join us for one last shagadelic adventure. Yeah, baby!

190 - Road to Perdition with Jarf

This week on Reel Comic Heroes, we're taking a detour from capes and cowls and heading down the rain-soaked road of Road to Perdition! Wait... a mob movie? On a comic book podcast? You bet! Based on the graphic novel by Max Allan Collins and Richard Piers Rayner, this Oscar-winning crime drama proves that not every comic adaptation needs superheroes.

We are joined again by Jarf (who actually requested this on be put back on the list) as we dive into Sam Mendes' beautifully crafted film starring Tom Hanks, Paul Newman, Jude Law, Daniel Craig, and Tyler Hoechlin. We'll talk about the stellar cast, breathtaking cinematography, the differences between the graphic novel and the film, and why this story of family, loyalty, and consequences has earned its place among the greatest comic book adaptations you've probably forgotten was based on a comic.

So grab an umbrella, avoid making eye contact with suspicious guys in fedoras, and hit the road with Reel Comic Heroes as we uncover the comic book roots of Road to Perdition!
