Super Heroic Ages

Let Me Know How It Is ·

2021/02/03

If you’ve read comics for any length of time, chances are you have heard the phrase Golden Age or Silver Age.

Today the panel takes a look at each of the separate ages of comics and the heroes that came during that period.

Great Moments in So-So Comic Book Movies

Let Me Know How It Is ·

2021/01/27

Today, there is a trend of some half-dozen comic book movies released each year, and it doesn’t show any signs of slowing down.

But, even if some movies are not the greatest as a whole, there can

2021/01/20

Sometimes when watching a movie or show, the story that’s told just isn’t enough. Even after the credits roll, sometimes the audience wants more. Sequels and prequels are not the only ways though. More can come in other forms. That's where spin offs come in; a way to pursue and explore other stories in the same world, but through a new lens -- a different point of view. Today, the panel is going to explore spin offs and the many shapes and sizes they can take.

EXTRA - Pop Culture Junk Food

Let Me Know How It Is ·

2020/11/23

One indicator of a pop culture property's success is the amount of merchandise that goes a long with it: toys, children's books, school supplies, even bed sheets and beach towels are all relatively common. But in some ways, the true tell of a property's popularity is whether or not it has been licensed for a snack food. It doesn't happen for everything, but it does happen, and maybe more than you think. Today the panel discusses their favorite pop culture junk foods from over the years.

Villains: What's Your Type?

Let Me Know How It Is ·

2020/11/04

Comics books, movies, TV, and the rest of pop culture are filled with wonderful heroes; but they are also filled with wonderful villains with which the heroes can match wits. There are many different ways you can categorize bad guys, but one could be this way: doppelgangers vs originals. Doppelgangers are the evil version of the hero, the inverse, the dark negative. Originals have their own story, their own gimmick. Often they have just a cool hook or an aspect that plays well against the hero. But

When TV Turns into Movies

Let Me Know How It Is ·

2020/10/21

Typically whenever a television show is canceled, we tend to think that's the end for it, but more and more we see that isn’t necessarily the case. It isn’t uncommon for a show to have a semblance of a second life as a movie. This usually comes in two varieties: sometimes a show just gets a reimagined adaptation as a movie, and other times we see a show get a movie to tie up some loose ends left behind from the series or to just continue the adventures. What is it like seeing something that works so

Batman is unquestionably one of the most popular characters in the entire DC Universe, if not THE most popular.
