The Superhero Show Show #401
Y the Last Episode?
It’s the season (series?) finale of Y: The Last Man on an all-new Superhero Show Show!
On an all-new, all-different episode of The Superhero Show Show, Cassie and the Boyz are discussing the final episode of Y: The Last Man! The showrunners seem to think that the show might be able to find a home on a streamer other than Hulu, which originally produced the drama, but for right now, this is it! And it so very clearly did not think this was going to be the last episode. A lot of things come to a head when the Amazons finally make it to the prison, and Yorick and Hero see each other again. Loyalties are tested, backs are stabbed, lives are ended, and when the dust has settled, the first chapter of what is very clearly a long story is over.
Also on this episode, the Taste Buds head back to X-TAZMANIA with the start of the Dark Pheonix saga, or episode #303 of X-Men: The Animated Series, available on Disney+. Professor X sends the X-Men to space to see what this Lilandra lady is complaining about, and there they meet Mutant Daddy Erik the Red, and get embroiled in one of those gosh darn space wars! Then, something real bad happens to Jean…we’ll have to wait until next week to see what that is.
And as if that wasn’t enough, Mike sits down with Khelan and Adam from the Homo Superior podcast to talk about all things comics, television, and the nightmare of trying to wrangle five guys on the same podcast! Check out the Homo Superior podcast here, and follow them on Twitter @HomoSuperiorX.
All of that, plus discussions, reviews, and conversations about every other television show based on a comic book, including LOCKE AND KEY, FEAR THE WALKING DEAD, WALKING DEAD: WORLD BEYOND, STARGIRL, SUPERGIRL, LEGENDS OF TOMORROW, BATWOMAN, and DOOM PATROL. It’s almost too much show!
