The Superhero Show Show #412: Naomi vs Peacemaker
The Superhero Show Show #412
Naomi vs Peacemaker
It’s another Naomi vs Peacemaker slug fest, as the two newest shows compete to be our favorite!
On an all-new, all-different The Superhero Show Show, Katelynn from The Unnatural 20’s is back on the show to help Ryan breakdown the first two episodes of The CW’s Naomi. Ryan didn’t love the first one’s cringe-factor, but cringe is Katelynn’s favorite thing, so will she argue that the show is better than Ryan said? Also, it’s a CW show that focuses on Superman, so does the show already have a built-in fan in Katelynn. They’ll argue about what the most important aspect of the show is: the lead actress or all of the skateboarding. Got that, babe?
After that, they take a look at all of the other shows that came out this week, including the third and fourth episodes of Peacemaker, Superman and Lois, Batwoman, and Legends of Tomorrow!
Finally, the Taste Buds head back to X-TASmania to begin the Dark Phoenix Saga!!! The Hellfire Club, aka the Inner Circle, has found out that the Phoenix has taken over an Earthling, and set out to get that power for themselves. Meanwhile, Dazzler makes her debut, and goes right for Scott Summers!
All of that, and so much more, on an all-new Superhero Show Show!!!
