Our hosts return to the Podtower to continue their review of Part 2 of Secret Origins.

While the episode brings together some of DC's biggest heroes for the first time, Alex and Will come away feeling surprisingly underwhelmed by the experience. They discuss whether introducing so many major characters at once weakens the impact of their eventual team-up and wonder if a few heroes might have been better saved for later episodes.

Our hosts also wonder what the gooey, white alien invaders might be made of (if you know this podcast, I’m sure you can guess!). They also compare Superman's heat vision to a hot glue gun, discover that The Flash is a real Gooner, Batman gets benched, and Martian Manhunter goes emo.

Alex and Will leave the Podcave behind and move into the Podtower as they begin the next stage of Batman’s journey through the DCAU with Justice League and watch, “Secret Origins, Part 1.”

Along the way, they discuss Batman’s updated design for the series, meet the newest heroes joining the expanding animated universe, and take a look at the talented voice cast bringing them to life. The conversation also dives into the episode’s many nods to classic sci-fi horror films and uncovers the influences that helped shape the Justice League’s debut adventure.

As always, the discussion takes a few unexpected detours, including the discovery that Superman may have accidentally wandered into the Manosphere, Batman uses his Superman alert watch for absolutely everything, and Wayne Manor hosts an apple sauce party.

Packed with analysis, trivia, and plenty of laughs, this episode marks the beginning of a new era for the podcast as the Justice League finally assembles!

Our hosts return to the Podcave and crack open some packs and dive into Batman: The Animated Series trading cards, the latest collectible release from Upper Deck.

Alex and Will are joined by TJ Shevlin and Toni Sirianni, the team behind the set, to talk about their shared love for BTAS and what fans can expect inside every pack.

From rare inserts and variant selections to the creative process behind the collection, TJ and Toni reveal what makes this release stand apart from previous DC Comics trading card sets. They also tease what could be coming next for the line and Alex learns how to properly open a trading card pack (apologies for any excessive rustling in this episode!).

Alex quickly drops into the Podcave to update you all on some exciting new episodes that will be released in the coming months, as well as share some of the "Best Of" clips from the podcast over the last year.

Does this episode exist mainly because Alex fell behind in his editing duties? Yes...but, it's still content and you'll like it!

Our hosts return to the Podcave to review the final episode of Batman: The Animated Series, “Judgment Day.”

Alex and Will dive into the debut of The Judge and explore just how much he mirrors The Phantasm. Such as both characters being shadowy, masked figures with chilling voices, who stalk their targets in deeply unsettling ways, and all the while building toward a surprise identity reveal.

Along the way, they wonder what happens to Two-Face’s apartment while he’s locked up in Arkham? Why doesn’t The Judge find it suspicious that he knows so much about Two-Face? And how does Batman expect anyone to not notice his wildly over-the-top pirate disguise?

The episode also serves as a tribute to Richard Moll, arguably the greatest Two-Face ever put on screen. As a final goodbye, Alex and Will pack the discussion with enough “number two” puns to make your head spin…TWICE!

But, DO NOT think that this is the last episode of the Podcast, as our hosts will be continuing their journey through the DCAU and following Batman into Justice League.

Our hosts return to the Podcave to watch the episode, Beware The Creeper.

Alex and Will discuss the introduction of this new anti-hero to the DCAU, and discover why we only see him in this one episode.

Our hosts also can't help but wonder how Ace Chemicals are even still in business? And why do they keep making vats of chemicals that turn people into laughing maniacs? Plus, Joker performs a boring, mundane, everyday task, Harley gets cream pied, and Killer Croc and Salmonella expand their business empire with the help of Salmonella’s twin sister, Gingervitis.
