    Batman: Digital Justice
    Aug 4 2025
    What happens when Batman enters the cyberpunk future of 1990… via early-90s CGI? In this episode of Bros, Foes, and Heroes, Zach and Mike dive into the bizarre, ambitious, and wildly outdated world of Batman: Digital Justice — one of DC’s earliest fully computer-generated graphic novels. We break down the story, the tech it was made on, the weird villains (Mob Lord! Madame X! A Joker virus!), and the overly enthusiastic teeth renders. From 8 megs of RAM and Tron-style Batmobiles to hoverboarding Robins, it’s a wild ride through a digital Gotham like no other.

    We're wrapping up our return trip through one of the most beautifully told Supergirl stories ever — Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King and Bilquis Evely. In Part 2 (covering issues 5–8), Zach and Mike continue Kara’s cosmic revenge quest, where things get darker, more dangerous, and surprisingly emotional. From poisoned skies to space pirates to final confrontations, we talk about why this book hits so hard, how it redefines Supergirl, and why it deserves to be a modern classic. See why this quickly became one of Zach’s all-time favorite stories in comics.

    Jul 21 2025
    This week, we’re revisiting one of our all-time favorite modern DC stories: Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King and Bilquis Evely. In Part 1 (covering issues 1–4), Zach and Mike break down the stunning, space-western journey of Kara Zor-El as she tries to enjoy her birthday in peace… only to get pulled into an interstellar quest for revenge with a sharp-tongued girl and a whole lot of emotional weight. We dive into the gorgeous art, the big character swings, and why this book made us both rethink how we see Supergirl. It’s violent, poetic, heartbreaking — and a top-tier comic from start to finish.

    It’s the grand finale! In this week’s episode of Bros, Foes & Heroes, we close out our deep dive into All-Star Superman with issues 10 through 12 — and it's all building toward one of the greatest endings in comic book history. Superman races against time as his body continues to break down, and Lex Luthor finally gets everything he ever wanted... or so he thinks. We unpack some of the series' most powerful and emotional moments — from the iconic "you are stronger than you think" scene to Superman’s final act of selflessness. We also share our full thoughts on the series as a whole, how it ties into the new Superman movie, and why this might just be the perfect Superman story. Expect our usual mix of praise, chaos, jokes, and a whole lot of love for Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely’s masterpiece.

    Jul 14 2025
    This week on Bros, Foes & Heroes, we jump into Part 3 of our All-Star Superman deep dive, covering issues 7–9 — and things get wonderfully weird. We talk Bizarro world (and the lonely genius ZiBarro), Superman's DIY rocket escape, bizarre Justice League knock-offs, and what happens when two other Kryptonians show up and decide Earth needs a new management team (spoiler: it doesn’t go well). Along the way, we get sidetracked on everything from the Superman movie’s perfect “golly” moments to popcorn salt overload, James Gunn’s Peacemaker, the future of DC movies, and the tragic downfall of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in our hearts. It’s part myth, part Silver Age fever dream, part love letter to Superman — and all chaotic fun. Tune in as we build toward the final chapters of this classic run and gear up for the big Superman movie talk coming Wednesday! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
