The season has finaled! Lanterns 1x08, "Dirt and Stars" gets dark and intimate and emotional, but is it the ending we hoped for? Were we good with what wrapped? Are we cool with what dangled? We're talking all about the season 1 finale, and we're addressing some of the complaints that we've seen haphazardly shat upon the myriad online platforms. 🎙️ Hosts David C.

Lanterns 1x07, "The Jordan Boys' Legacy" gets into the blood, and we're wading in the water with John, the Halogram, and that mysterious, cloaked figure! Oooh, what could it mean? Another solid episode of Lanterns, that's what it means! We have thoughts and theories, and we can't wait to get our eyes on the finale next week! 🎙️ Hosts David C.

We're getting into Lanterns 1x06, "Bad Optics"! It's 2026, and Hal Jordan isn't the man he used to be. In fact, no one seems to be who we thought they were. Except Guy. Guy is exactly what we expected. Come wallow in theories and good-time conversation with your buddies Dave and Jason! We're so interested to know where this all is going, and we're not ashamed to say we can't remember every freaking bit of Lantern lore! You can listen to us google! 🎙️ Hosts David C.

Holy crap! That's one of the best season finales I've ever seen! Crazy that there are 3 episodes left!  We're back to discuss Lanterns 1x05, “Lights Out”! The truth about Zoe finally comes crashing into the open as Antaan makes his move! Rushville descends into chaos! Hal and John find themselves on opposite sides of an increasingly ugly situation. We discuss the episode’s reveals, the Hal vs. John showdown, Kerry Kane’s past, Antaan’s vendetta, John’s shocking decision, and what it all means for the Lanterns moving forward. 🎙️ Hosts David C.

We're jumping on "The Weenie" like Zoe jumped on the weenie! That's right, we're getting into Lanterns 1x04, "The Weenie"! The mystery is finally starting to crack open on HBO’s Lanterns! What the hell is Sinestro really trying to do to Hal? Why are the Guardians trying to get John to replace him? Okay, that part is obvious, but do they gotta be such jerks about it? Did we seriously just get Mandarin-ed by way of Hector Hammond? Why is William Macon exerting power completely naked? Talk about a weenie... How many vehicles is Hal Jordan going to destroy this season? And after all this hunting for the Manhunter… did we just find it? Plus, John and Hal are finally starting to work like an actual team—oh, whoops. Nevermind. 🎙️ Hosts David C.

We're jumping into John Stewart's past as we review Lanterns 1x03, “Outkast”! Was John Stewart programmed or raised? Did his parents train him to become a Green Lantern, or did they groom him for it? And how much damage did they do trying to make their son fearless? Also, is it a weakness that Hal Jordan is to blame for almost everything in John's life going wrong, or is it intentional on the part of the writers? There's so much to discuss! 🎙️ Hosts David C.

We're haggard and recovering from illness, but we're still talking HBO’s Lanterns! We discuss episode 1x02, “Trust Fall”! Why is John able to keep that bird construct alive while unconscious? Is Antaan Atrocitus, or he a, ahem, red herring? Is William Macon Green Arrow, or he working for him? Wait, where are all the patients in this hospital? There's so much to discuss! 🎙️ Hosts David C.

We're back and ready to dive into the series premiere of HBO’s Lanterns! We discuss episode 1x01, “Pilot,” from Hal and John’s uneasy partnership, the show’s grounded True Detective-inspired approach, the Green Lantern mythology changes of James Gunn’s DCU, our favorite moments, and what didn’t work for us, to that massive ending that changes everything (or did it? Theories abound, friends)! Is Lanterns the Green Lantern adaptation we’ve been waiting for? Sound off at [email protected], and we'll talk about it next week! SPOILER WARNING: We discuss the entire episode and speculate about where the mystery could be heading. 🎙️ Hosts David C.

Did Supergirl miss the point of Woman of Tomorrow? Man, did we want to love Supergirl. Instead, we walked away disappointed. This episode we discuss the film's strongest positives, its biggest storytelling blunders, whether Lobo was wasted, why the emotional payoff never landed for us, and what this could all mean for the future of the DCU! By the way, the writer of the film didn't understand what happened at the end of the book, and the director proudly explained that he didn't read the book. 🎙️ Hosts David C.

We're just catchin' up with the news! For Supergirl we have cool behind-the-scenes footage to talk about, and a description of the Cinemacon clip! Has anyone else noticed that it's impossible to find the trailer for Lanterns on any of the official WB/DC accounts? James Gunn still has his up, though. Speaking of, that new poster and tagline sure got people upset! We have a bit of a breakdown/reaction for the new Clayface trailer! It's not our genre typically, but it's looking pretty cool! For Man of Tomorrow we have casting rumors, Gunn pointing out that he never confirmed Maxima was in the film, confirmation that Superman composer Dave Fleming is returning, plus some really cool backstory on the chess board Gunn posted on threads when they started shooting! People are concocting conspiracies about The Batman Part II not happening once again! This time because it wasn't mentioned at Cinemacon! We also laugh about some Superman/Batman Photoshop nightmare napkins that got everybody upset for a minute. 🎙️ Hosts David C.

I'm not sure what all we even talked about this episode, but it was a whole lot more than what is written below! Not only did we discuss the Supergirl trailer teaser AND trailer, not only did we discuss the update David Jenkins gave us for Booster Gold, we somehow got into discussions on franchise tone, fan expectation, my new cornbread cast iron skillet, my new ceramic pan... I don't even know. Plus, and update on the Grant Morrison/Damon Lindelof Lanterns drama!
