In the third installment of our ‘5 Comics That Explain’ series, we G-ride to the 1990s.

The conversation includes Spawn #1 and the meteoric rise of Image Comics, the death (and inevitable return) of Superman in issue #75 and the ‘Bad Girl’ craze led by scantily-clad characters such as Lady Death and Shi.

We also cover the landmark mini-series DC’s ‘Kingdom Come’ with the sterling art of Alex Ross; as well as give the nod to Neil Gaiman’s ‘Sandman’ and becoming the bedrock of DC’s late imprint, Vertigo.

Lastly, we give honorable mention to the 8 million selling ‘X-Men’ #1 by Chris Claremont and Jim Lee, the reality-bending ‘Maxx’ by Sam Kieth and the breath of diversity from Milestone Comics.

As always, thanks for listening.

Be it aliens, clones, or dystopian futures, we love us some science fiction. On today's podcast, we take inspiration from movieweb.com by compiling a list of nine underrated sci-fi movies. Terrific films like The Brother From Another Planet, Soylent Green, The Hidden, Equilibrium, and The Girl with All the Gifts are a few of the overlooked gems that make up our final list. We also ask questions on the pod: Are big budgets critical to the success of good sci-fi movies? Do the themes and concerns in these films often reflect the decades in which they were released? Is sci-fi as a genre better at telling cautionary tales?
