Our DC Crisis/Let-Down arc rolls onward with “Countdown to Infinite Crisis” by Geoff Johns, Greg Rucka, Judd Winick and ton of artists. This ‘book may only be 80 pages, but make no mistake: it’s a seriously huge piece of work. We talk about The dramatic death, the incredible buildup through Beetle’s narration, and of course, Batman’s ear. Wait, Batman’s ear?

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!
