The Superhero Show Show #404: The Spirals and Arrows of Outrageous Fortune

The Superhero Show Show #404

The Spirals and Arrows of Outrageous Fortune

It’s Hawkeye time on The Superhero Show Show, plus the premiere of Super Crooks and more Will Hines!

On an all-new, all-different Superhero Show Show, Cassie and Mike are gone for the holidays, so Ryan is left in the studio all by himself. Luckily, he was able to call his good friend Greg, from Movie of the Year! They go out to the alley behind the studio, and wake up their favorite dumpster raccoon Taylor to also be on the show! Star-studded! It’s a good thing that this all-star team was brought together, because Jeremy Renner is on television! No, they’re not discussing Mayor of Kingstown, silly. They are talking about the first two episodes of Hawkeye! Clint Barton is in a bind: he has to make it home for Christmas, but before that, he has to deal with Kate Bishop, the Tracksuit Mafia, LARPers, Echo, and so much more! Do Ryan, Greg, and Taylor think that Hawkeye achieves the heights of other Disney Plus shows, or is it just the StreEternals? Tune in and find out.

Plus, Ryan continues his conversation with Will Hines, and Comedy Bang Bang fans will want to tune in for this one! Instead of asking Will about what other television shows he watches, they do a deep dive on the day Stanley Chamberlain came to be. What happened that glorious morning when a lonely med student became involved in a satanist cult? What is it like to walk into the CBB studios with one character, and come out the other side with a different one?

All of that, plus reviews and discussions about every other television show based on a comic book, including Young Justice: Phantoms, Hit-Monkey, Locke and Key, Fear the Walking Dead, Walking Dead: World Beyond, Legends of Tomorrow, Batwoman, Riverdale, The Flash, and Super Crooks! Simply too much show!!!
