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.

This week we take a break from cracking the books and finish up our Dwayne McDuffie series with what he’s probably best known for: animated television. We watch a couple time travel episodes titled “The Once and Future Thing,” both written and produced by McDuffie. We also wrap up our discussion on the man’s influence in the popular perception of superheroes today.
