I thought it was funny. Adam, I think you make a good point on Max liking or having some kind of passion towards the character. After all, he did read the story back when it came out. Usually, if you don’t care about something you generally don’t waste your time on it.

Hi guys, Although I can see why people could get offended I thought it was pretty funny. I don’t think it was meant to be anything more than a silly romp but who knows? I agree that a lot of thought and care went into the costumes and twisted portrayals and flips taken with the story not to mention the language used for punctuation. Now let’s talk about the parody and stop talking about your podcast…LOL!

Anabel, have you been able to see any of the Young Justice episodes? It’s a great show.

Good podcast guys, whilst I do get that its a parody a few things still irked me, I hated the fact this guy said he doesn’t give a crap about Superman and neither do we even of we think we do. That was a really poor comment to make joke or not. Also a nitpick I hate the fact that everyone thinks Batman can beat anyone or anything that bugs me (I did love how they used the sponge lol). But it made me laugh and I agree that there was way too much swearing. End of the day it gave us all something to talk about which is good

I thought the video was funny but i agree there were too many four letter words. And Mandy Moore is a great excuse to be forgetful. And I have to agree that there have been much better superman stories in S:TAS, JL, and Smallville than in the comics the last 20 years.

Thanks for the comments, guys! I think there was just a little too much overreaction on the part of the fan, and we now live in the day and age of shoot first and ask questions later. Bob I totally agree! Batman is the equivalent of Wolverine. They’ve made him too powerful.
