Look up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Supergirl's debut on the silver screen!
Supergirl (1984) stars Helen Slater, Faye Dunaway, and Peter O'Toole and is seemingly ignored when talking about the pantheon on films based on DC Comics characters. To celebrate the 35th anniversary of its release, we talk about the many iterations of the "Girl of Steel", from animated to live-action, television and movies! Plus we give our opinions on the first female lead superhero film of all time, in this solar powered romp through all things SUPERGIRL!

No comic book movie has proven to be more polarizing lately than 2019's Joker, directed by Todd Phillips and starring Joaquin Phoenix. While some praise the gritty look at Gotham's clown prince of crime, others fear the repercussions of making a homicidal madman the hero of the story. Good thing your friends at the Major Issues Podcast are hear to weigh on all things Joker in this in-depth recap and review. In it we go scene by scene and dissect what makes this film both unique and important, whilst also discussing what films it pays homage to. It's time to grab some face paint, dance like noone's watching and put on a happy face as we tackle a new age of DC film by reviewing Joker.

In the same breath, the Green Arrow has made some friends in high places, and has been a part of some of the greatest comic book crossovers we've ever seen. Join us as we take a look back at 7 seasons of action, adventure and archery, as we celebrate the show that kicked off the Arrowverse, Arrow!

The Boys has hit Amazon Prime Video by storm, if that storm were filled with blood, guts, bones and organs! Starring Karl Urban as Billy Butcher and based on the comic created by Garth Ennis under The Wildstorm imprint, The Boys is set in a universe where superpowered people are recognized as heroes by the general public and owned by powerful corporation Vought International, which ensures that they are aggressively marketed and monetized. These "people of virtue" are less than moral, as they create tons of collateral damage and live in complete excess. These ain't your grandma's superheroes! It's up to Billy and his band of misfits in The Boys to put these "supes" back their place, whether they like it or not.

Few animated series have stood the test of time the way Batman the Animated Series has. Not only has it redefined a generation of storytelling in animation, but it has expanded upon Batman’s legendary mythos, and has even added some wrinkles to his infamous rouges gallery. Even decades after its release, people still talk about the style, score, and frankly adult like content in a medium that was daring itself to evolve. Join us as we talk all the things that made Batman TAS stand out in the golden age of carton television, marvel over the sheer talent of the voice acting, and reminisce over some of the best episodes the show had to offer, in this nostalgic look at a hallmark in The Dark Knight’s lore!
