I did it! I found a Bizarre Silver Age Comic where Superman’s not a dick at all—unless you count the ridiculous hoops he makes his friends jump through to save his life just so he can cruise in for a…
It’s time for another installment of Bizarre Silver Age Comics, which is quickly becoming something I might as well rename Random Acts of Superdickery. Superman acts like a complete dick in this story—the dude literally changes history so…
I’m back again to talk about Bizarre Silver Age Comics. And yes, I’m looking at another Superman story. I’ve got some stories featuring other characters in the pipeline, but there’s just no escaping that most of the true Silver…
Last week, multiple prologues had villains Lex Luthor and Doctor Octopus thwarted by our heroes, Superman and Spider-Man respectively. As Clark Kent and Peter Parker went off to attend a (yawn) news convention, Luthor and Ock met in prison and…
When I looked at the X-Men/Teen Titans team-up, I had said all the crossovers done before had felt like gimmicks. But after I had said that, I wondered if perhaps I had been, well, unfair. After all, it had been…
Remember how last time I praised that opening for issue #2?
As a Dark Lord of the Sith once said: Impressive. Most impressive. It’s the 21st century and Superman has celebrated his 63rd birthday. Brainiac has told him almost six…
Last issue, Superman, having grown up in the Soviet Union, had become a staunch defender of all things communist. After Stalin’s death, Superman decided to lead the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact, and the only person who might be…
So, let’s talk about Mark Millar. A former associate of Grant Morrison’s, Mark has had an impressive career, working both for DC and Marvel Comics as well as independent titles. Several of his works have been adapted into successful motion…
I continue my look at the “maxi-series” format and list my top 10 favorites of all time. Make sure to check out part one and part two if you haven’t already. And now, the thrilling conclusion!

As I noted in my previous recap, the third season of Lois & Clark began promisingly by surprising the viewers in the best possible way. In this case, it was Lois responding to Clark’s marriage proposal by revealing that she…
By the end of its second season, Lois & Clark was becoming more of a ratings hit. One reason for this was that the title characters were starting to become more romantic with each other by this point. The only…
With Harvey Weinstein’s career still in ruins and the #MeToo movement now being targeted by Donald Trump (although I guess that was inevitable), I felt prompted to look at an interesting episode from Lois & Clark‘s fourth and final…
You might recall that some time ago I wrote an article chronicling the Silver Age adventures of Supergirl and Comet the Super-Horse, who some might have previously assumed was just another wacky super-pet like Krypto the Super-Dog or Streaky the…
Welcome back to Bad Superhero Movie Showdown, in which we compare two reviled superhero movies to definitively answer the question of which one fails the most.
In 2013, Marvel released a third Iron Man film, creatively titled Iron Man …
Sometimes it seems like Jor-El sent his son to Earth because he foresaw what a rancid sack of dicks he was going to turn into.
Bruce, did you know Clark is also a brooding, violent momma’s boy who enjoys growling vague platitudes in the rain?
Budgets will be slashed, regular cast members will be demoted to recurring, network-wide crossovers will happen, and hopefully the series will be allowed to appeal to a hipper, savvier audience of superhero fans as opposed to its previous demo of elderly women watching with their granddaughters.
“All of these plot points could be used to write three good Superman films. It is a waste that we didn’t even get one.”
“While many fans of Big Bang Theory are excited, some are wary, especially because they can point to a long list of other TV shows that were cancelled not long after the decision to have two of their main cast walk down the aisle. ”
