ComicBook CliqueComment

No comic book movie has proven to be more polarizing lately than 2019's Joker, directed by Todd Phillips and starring Joaquin Phoenix. While some praise the gritty look at Gotham's clown prince of crime, others fear the repercussions of making a homicidal madman the hero of the story. Good thing your friends at the Major Issues Podcast are hear to weigh on all things Joker in this in-depth recap and review. In it we go scene by scene and dissect what makes this film both unique and important, whilst also discussing what films it pays homage to. It's time to grab some face paint, dance like noone's watching and put on a happy face as we tackle a new age of DC film by reviewing Joker.

Major Issues Ep 92: The Boys (Comic and Season 1) Review!

Episode92.jpg

The Boys has hit Amazon Prime Video by storm, if that storm were filled with blood, guts, bones and organs! Starring Karl Urban as Billy Butcher and based on the comic created by Garth Ennis under The Wildstorm imprint, The Boys is set in a universe where superpowered people are recognized as heroes by the general public and owned by powerful corporation Vought International, which ensures that they are aggressively marketed and monetized. These "people of virtue" are less than moral, as they create tons of collateral damage and live in complete excess. These ain't your grandma's superheroes! It's up to Billy and his band of misfits in The Boys to put these "supes" back their place, whether they like it or not.
