Holy extended absence! We're back to talk about The Lego Batman Movie, nods to the weirder parts of DC's history on TV's Supergirl, movies Aaron has not seen, that John Woo movie where a dude bodychecks a horse, Superman III vs Superman IV, Kraven's Last Hunt and the unrelenting grimness of all 1987 comic books, Friday the 13th The Series, and much, much more. No wonder it's a double length episode, and it's only part one of our conversation.
