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.

We take some time too look back on the past year of our show: the best comics we’ve read and the worst, along with what we kept reading and the comic moments that still stick in our mind. We’ll be back with our regular programming next week when we read “Creator-Owned Heroes.” For more info on past and future shows, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com!

The big two comic book publishers come together to make what was billed as the greatest crossover in the history of superhero comics. They put their best writers and artists on the project, and had readers vote on the outcomes of matchups long asked for by fans: Silver Surfer vs. Green Lantern, Lobo vs. Wolverine, and Batman vs. Captain America, to name a few. What the reader gets instead is a deeply disappointing, sometimes disturbingly out-of-touch comic book. If only it hadn’t been written in the 90’s, maybe it could have had a shot at being more than a steaming pile. For more information, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com!
