It’s a week of epic returns: The return of John! The return of our favorite Book Club Barkeep, NIKKI (@sours_and_sass)! And, of course, the return of Superman to movie screens this week elicits a lot of conversation around the Man of Steel and his place in comic book and film history. Is the gang excited for the movie? Will the people flock to the theaters for it? The shadow knows!

Also, reflections on Ironheart and the state of MCU TV and reactions to Chip Zdarsky and Valerio Schiti’s Captain America #1.
