Flickin’ It episode 105 is on Blue Beetle and the state of the DCEU, affectionately known at the Revue Podcast Network as the DC Disaster. Blue Beetle was honestly a delightful surprise, yet not without its flaws. The DCEU as a whole is still…well, we’ll just have to wait and see at this point. Because who the fuck knows??

Flickin It Episode 105: Blue Beetle and the State of DC

Episode 22 of Matt and Mike (and Melissa) Read Comics dives into Joss Whedon’s run on Astonishing X-Men. On the heels of Grant Morrison’s bizarre, confusing, and often downright boring run on New X-Men, the camp and straightforward superhero storytelling of Joss Whedon was a true breath of fresh air. The classic yellow-and-blue themed suits are back. A new team is formed. A new villain arrives from another planet with a cryptic message about the power of a mutant destroying their homeworld. And on top of all of that, a “cure” for mutants. And…AND in a stroke of brilliant storytelling Whedon pulls off a move that has since been so reused that it almost feels stale, but when this book came out it was a truly remarkable comic moment - the return of Colossus. A character that had been dead in comics for years makes a stunning and cinematic return in Astonishing X-Men. Whedon and the late John Cassady craft one of the best X-Men storylines in the 21st century with Astonishing X-Men and you all should be reading this.
