Author and comic book fan Perry Constantine is your guide into the world of superhero film and TV! In each episode, Perry and a guest tackle a different movie or TV show and go into detail about what works and what doesn't, trying to focus on the stuff they enjoy as opposed to ranting about the stuff they hate.
Publisher
Perry Constantine and Derrick Ferguson (Host Emeritus)
In the latest comic episode, Nic Baldwin is here solo to talk about Dark Knights of Steel, an Elseworlds tale that reimagines the DC Universe in a medieval fantasy setting.

SCP #236 – Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze (1975)
Author and artist MD Jackson comes by the show to discuss one of the progenitors of the superhero concept. Today, we're discussing the big-screen debut of the pulp hero, Doc Savage! We discuss how the movie compares to the source material, why it didn't work, and some of the strange choices made.

SCP #235 – Supergirl (1984)
We're not talking about the new Supergirl movie. Instead, we journey back to 1984 to discuss Helen Slater's debut as the original live-action Girl of Steel! Superhero author James L. Richardson is here to break down this movie, and how it failed to meet the mark.
