The Legionnaires resort to desperate measures to restore Brainiac 5’s sanity, and it’s making the Subs crazy!
The Subs go back in time to Smallville, and then back even further to Krypton on a fateful day, in order to save the world. It’s fill-in madness, along with the latest in Legion news and some character talk.
The Subs talk about part 2 of the League of Super Assassins story, but before that, they get into a discussion (thanks to James Purcell on the Facebook page) about Alan Moore and Curt Swan’s Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow. Was it a response to the darkening of comics, or was it a further salvo in that darkening? Listen to our thoughts, and share your own on the Facebook page, or by email!
It’s new villain time, and Darren, Travis and Paul are going to tell you all about the first appearance of the League of Super-Assassins. Meanwhile, Paul attempts to restore a balance to the show, by bringing in contributions from other Canadians!
The Subs talk Hallowe’en traditions and plans, and their favourite horror movies, then they get into Superboy and the Legion 252. Who’s the craziest Legionnaire in this issue?
The Subs finish up the Steve Apollo story. Matter Eater Lad saves the day, so what more could anyone want? In case you need more, we salute the 500th episode of 11 o’Clock Comics, and talk a bit about what they’ve each been reading
The Subs finally learn the truth behind the murder of An Ryd, from way back in issue 239. It’s Legion Traitor time!
It’s Canadian Thanksgiving, and so Paul takes you back to a time that three Canadians made their way south of the border, and the shenanigans that occurred. Happy Thanksgiving to our Canadian listeners, and Happy Monday to everyone else!
Darren and Paul take a look at Superboy and the Legion of Super Heroes issue 249, as well as some Legion news, and their thoughts on what they’ve read of Rebirth.
Darren, Travis and Paul dig into the sewers, as the Legion faces a new threat, and RJ Brande faces a struggle of his own! All this and some Legion speculation, as well as some talk about what they’re currently reading!
In this, our 466th anniversary episode (yes, we get that anniversaries don’t work that way), Darren, Paul and Travis take a look at Superboy and the Legion issue 247, for the conclusion of the battle with the Fatal Five as well as a celebration and a Legion leader is elected!
Darren and Paul are joined by Travis Ellisor and Michael Grabois as they pay tribute to Len Wein who passed the day we recorded this episode, which was coincidentally scheduled to contain Len’s first Legion story. We take a look at his life and career, as well as his first Legion stories. Len Wein, 1948-2017. RIP.
While Darren is off at DragonCON, Paul is joined by Michael Grabois to cover the remainder of the Karate Kid series, including his crossover with Kamandi, and a team up with Batman!
Darren and Paul are joined by Michael Grabois and Travis Ellisor to attempt a truly staggering marathon. They summarize and annotate the first 10 issues of Karate Kid’s solo series! The Action! The Exposition! It’s all here!
Darren and Paul are joined by Travis Ellisor as they look at the final chapter of Earthwar. Finally, the Legionnaires know who is behind the invasion of Earth, but are they ready to stop Mordru?
