Great show! Although Mr. Freeze may be miffed that Shawn called him Captain Cold when naming the villains in the spectacular splash page which finished the main story. I agreed with your comments about Brandon Routh. I was able to meet him and Dean Cain at Wizard World Des Moines this year, which was super! Sorry. I bought signed photos from each of them which they personalized to my son, who was with me.
Since you asked if I am a supervillain, I will say that I am the Tangent version of the Heckler. If you get that interview with Dan Jurgens, let him know he has my permission to use my name should he craft any more Tangent tales. Michael, if you love the Relatively Geeky podcast network, why don’t you marry it? Seriously, you should marry Emily, then you could be part of it! That was me heckling, my super power.
I found the Convergence: Justice League of America series for half off at my local comic shop. If you want to cover it in more detail, that would give us two more episodes of greatness! I’m just trying to stretch this show’s life span. You two make a great team, and I like hearing you together. Another idea is for you guys to add episodes in the Green Lantern’s Light feed, just to bring us to the beginning of Just One of the Guys. Speaking of Just One of the Guys, I am trying to get the issues covered therein, and look forward to listening to it. I’m also loving Thrilling Adventures of Superman, but am stalled listening to that until I pick up Superman: The Dailies 1940-1941, since I like to read the stories first. There, I plugged your shows so you won’t have to this episode!
