Episode 143: Who Is The Definitive Batman?: The Answer Is No One!

53m · Under Two Capes · 05 Nov 16:00

This week, Jared and Teladia discuss the idea that there is no definitive versions of DC characters; there is only the version the fan prefers. They discuss why all versions of a character are valid, why demanding one's favorite iteration be reflected in every future version is unrealistic, and why having one's preferences does not invalidate another's preferences. They conclude by discussing Gotham Knights and comparing it to the Arkham series. 

It is totally fine to have a favorite version of Batman, Superman, etc. But one must allow others to have their own preferred versions. Liking Ben Afleck as Batman does not invalidate one's love of Michael Keaton. The only rule is, liking one over the other does not make one any less of a DC fan.  

What do you think? What is your favorite version of the DCU? Do you agree that all versions are valid? Who is the best Batman, Superman, etc?

Episode 146: Dawn Of DC Sounds Like The New 52 And Rebirth 2.0

This week, Jared breaks down the Dawn Of The DCU announcement and the books that constitute the year-long publishing initiative. He then breaks down the previous New 52 and Rebirth initiatives to compare them to the Dawn. He outlines why the strengths of both reboots and what DC can learn for Dawn to be successful.
