The Superhero Show Show #403: The Apes of Wrath

The Superhero Show Show #403

The Apes of Wrath

It’s the premiere of Hit-Monkey, plus the return of Riverdale and The Flash, on an all-new The Superhero Show Show!

On an all-new, all-different episode of The Superhero Show Show, Cassie and the Boyz are checking out the newest, and final, entry into the Marvel Hulu Universe! Hit-Monkey has premiered, and the Taste Buds are reviewing the first two episodes. It’s a tale as old as time, as a snow monkey grabs a suit and some guns and attempts to take down the Japanese mafia! Is Hit-Monkey able to make its crazy premise work? Will the Taste Buds enjoy this as much as they liked MODOK? We’ll see!

As if that wasn’t enough, the Friends also return to X-Tasmania to watch part 2 of the Dark Phoenix Saga on X-Men: The Animated Series! When we last left the merry mutants, they were stranded in space, and the only person who could save them is Jean Grey. But…but…is something happening to her out there in space as she crash lands to the Earth? Probably not, right?

Then, Ryan sits down with comedian and comic book fan Will Hines! In part one of a two-part interview, the two discuss how Will got into comic books, his relationship with his equally nerdy brother, who is the co-host of his show, and the state of comic book television and movies today!

All of that, plus reviews and discussions on the season premieres of Riverdale and The Flash, two Walking Dead shows, a couple of Locke and Keys, Batwoman, Legends of Tomorrow, and the podcast finally starts covering Young Justice! All of that, and so much more, on an all-new Superhero Show Show!
