How good is the Justice League animated series (finally on HBO Max)? Will the comics you're buying now ever be worth anything? Which way does Hawkman lean politically? Are comic book writers just trying to get into the movies now? Should DC put John Stewart Green Lantern in the movies? How will Marvel introduce the X-Men into the MCU? Which was better, Deadpool 1 or Deadpool 2? How young is too young to read The Boys? Why did DC stop publishing The Boys? What is the biggest difference between The Boys TV show and the comics? Do we want a multiverse in the movies? Is Batman just a rich white guy beating up poor people? (Yes, but there's more to it than that.) What is the average age of a comic book reader? How about Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas from Stranger Things) as Virgil Hawkins (aka Static Shock)? How dumb was Spider-Man: Brand New Day? Is watching Zack Snyder's Justice League an obligation?
