Our Morrison vs. Miller arc wraps up with Frank Miller’s “The Dark Knight Strikes Again.” In this story, we return to the word created in “The Dark Knight Returns,” three years after the faked death of Bruce Wayne. This time, Bruce sets out to bring back all the other heroes and take on their tyrannical, oppressive government — a government so insidious that the news is given to you naked and superchix musicians in spandex lead a rebellion. If that sounds wacky, that’s because it is. I get the feeling that this comic will live on in infamy. For more information on past for future shows, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com!

Our DC Let Down arc starts off with the big daddy of controversial comics: “Identity Crisis.” Written by Brad Meltzer with art by Rags Morales and Michael Bair, this comic kicks you until you fall to the ground crying, then kicks you some more. We talk about the depressing, violent, sexualized themes in this comic along with their repercussions on the super hero genre.

Perhaps one of the largest projects ever undertaken in all of comics, DC’s weekly title “52” came out every Wednesday, without any delays, for an entire year. It wove together storylines from across the publisher’s universe and highlighted the rich world crafted by decades of brilliant creators. We’re going to read all of it. This week, we read volume one and give our first impressions of the characters and mull over how the stories are set up.
