Superhero Soup

This week, we parse through the middle chunk of season 1 of Luke Cage! While we are still enjoying Power Man, his friends and their various adventures, some of the cracks are starting to show.

Join us next week as we finish out the rest of season 1 of Luke Cage (episodes 9-13) and get ready for our hard-hitting analysis of 1978's Superman to tickle your eardrums on October 7! As always, follow us on social (@superherosoup on Twitter, @superhero_soup on IG) and drop us a line on whatever you fancy at [email protected] and we'll read it on next week's show!

In brightest day, in blackest night, this hour-long film was just alright. Mk, Trace thought it was alright, but Synneve hated it. This was DC's fifth direct-to-video animated film, and while its plot and characters fell pretty flat, we still had a hilarious time going through all of our extremely deep thoughts.

Check in next week as we continue season one of Netflix's Luke Cage (episodes 5-8) and then finish off the rest of the season (episodes 9-13) the following week. Follow us on social media and write in to [email protected] to be part of the show!

When the first season of Luke Cage released on Netflix in 2016, rumor has it that it broke the servers for a few hours from everyone wanting to watch it so badly. Who knows if that's really true, but the show is really good, as you'll hear from our analysis, fast facts and funny takes covering the first four episodes of Season 1.

We'll be picking back up with episode 5 of Luke Cage in two weeks, but join us next Wednesday as we discuss our first animated feature, Green Lantern: First Flight and give us a follow on social media (@superherosoup on Twitter, @superhero_soup on Instagram). As always, be part of the show by writing in to [email protected] with any of your thoughts on the heroverse! 

She's one of the most powerful characters in the MCU, and for good reason. This week we review Brie Larson's superior performance in Captain Marvel and also dive into her onscreen chemistry with Samuel L. Jackson, our thoughts on her dope costume and why female-led superhero movies are important today.

Tune in next week for our conversation on the first four episodes of the first season of the Luke Cage series on Netflix and check out our social media (@superhero_soup on Instagram, @superherosoup on Twitter) for the full upcoming schedule.
