The Superhero Show Show #436
The Boys

It’s the penultimate episode of The Boys’ third season, plus X-Men: The Animated Series, and more!

On an all-new, all-different episode of The Superhero Show Show, Cassie and the Boys are giving Amazon’s The Boys one last look before next week’s season finale. No one is in a good place, things are about to explode, and the season is trying to stick the landing. Will Soldier Boy quit smoking weed and smoking priests? Will Homelander be able to find Soldier Boy before Solider Boy finds him. And how about that absolute banger of a twist? I mean, I saw it coming, but I’m assuming none of our panelists did. Tune in to hear another classic discussion of Mike and Ryan loving The Boys, and Cassie and Katelynn hating it!

Then the Friends make their way to X-TASMANIA to discuss another episode of X-Men: The Animated Series! In Beyond Good and Evil, Part I (of five!), Scott and Jean are attempting to get married again! I’m sure it’ll go great, right? WRONG. Apocalypse! Mister Sinister! The Nasty Boys! They’re all on hand to make sure Scott and Jean live UNhappily ever after!

All of that, plus discussions and reviews of all of this week’s comic book shows, including this week’s time traveling episode of Ms. Marvel, and episodes 304 and 305 of The Umbrella Academy!

It’s too much gosh darn show!

Also, don’t forget to:

While Americans overwhelmingly support the right of an individual to make their own decisions about abortion, unfortunately, that right is no longer protected everywhere in the U.S.

The Supreme Court overturned Roe versus Wade on June 24th.

Abortion is a basic healthcare need for the millions of people who can become pregnant. Everyone should have the freedom to decide what’s best for themselves and their families, including when it comes to ending a pregnancy. This decision has dire consequences for individual health and safety, and could have harsh repercussions for other landmark decisions.

Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health and independence of all Americans. Even if you live in a state where abortion rights are upheld, access to safe medical procedures shouldn’t be determined by location, and it shouldn’t be the privilege of a small few.

You can help by donating to local abortion funds. To find out where to donate for each state, visit donations4abortion.com.
