  • Superman - The Film! (2025)
    Jul 18 2025

    Today, the club discusses their reactions to the Superman movie from Soup(er) to nuts! The cast, the plot, the reveals - we'll talk about it all. That means spoilers folks! Be aware that we'll meander into spoiler territory a little bit at a time, so if you haven't seen the movie, you might want to avoid this one. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!

    In addition, you know we gotta cover first issues (its our core premise afterall). We'll talk about Ghost Pepper, and manga inspired double sized indie debut on image comics from Ludo Lullabi, then we get a double dose of Duggan with his indie offering also on image with "This Ends Tonight". He's joined by Kelvin Mao, Robert Windom, Jae Lee, and June Chung in this action fantasy. His big two entry was Marvels "Godzilla Destroys the Marvel Universe".
