For our 99th episode, we read the digital-only series “Ame-Comi” by Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti. Inspired by a series of statuettes, the comic creates an alternate DC Universe where all the superheroes are women. The result is an incredibly interesting commentary on comics today. We also take a good chunk of time for an in-depth discussion of the digital comics experience. For more information on past or future shows, visit www.atomicpoweredsupercast.com!

We wrap up our Gail Simone series by reading the title she’s most notable for, “Birds of Prey.” The first volume, “Of Like Minds” drawn by Ed Benes and Alex Lei introduces us to an intriguing villain duo and introduces the Huntress to the Birds of Prey team. We dig into the great interpersonal character work that’s Simone’s forte and we mull over the choices Oracle and Canary find themselves making. Also, is it just us, or is the Huntress’ booty all over every page possible? Hooray, cheesecake! For more information on past or future episodes, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com!

We take on the amazing Amazon, Wonder Woman, as we continue our Gail Simone series. “The Circle” tells a story of the secret side of Diana Prince’s origin and how her “birth” almost shattered the delicate all-female culture of Themyscira. Well, either that or it’s a horrible case of gals gone “Baby Crazy.” Or it’s a story of zealotry and fanatacism. However you stack it, it’s a pretty good story.
