ComicBook CliqueComment

In this week’s episode of the Major Issues Podcast, the hosts revisit one of the most beloved Superman stories of all time: All Star Superman by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely! With James Gunn’s Superman film just days away, we take a deep dive into the comic that helped redefine the Man of Steel for a modern era and reportedly inspired Gunn’s take on the character. We break down the emotional, philosophical, and mythological weight of the 12-issue epic, explore how it celebrates everything iconic about Superman, and debate which moments might find their way to the big screen. Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering the story for the first time, this is the perfect prep before Clark Kent returns to theaters!

Major Issues 387: Judge Dredd (1995) Recap and Review

ComicBook CliqueComment

This week, the hosts revisit Judge Dredd (1995) for its 30th anniversary! With Sylvester Stallone behind the visor, this cult classic aimed to bring the 2000 AD icon to life—complete with oversized armor, dystopian chaos, and questionable comedy relief. But beyond the explosions and one-liners, the crew dives into the film’s deeper themes: authoritarianism, identity, and the cost of absolute justice. Was Judge Dredd ahead of its time, or just a stylish misfire with a killer helmet? Three decades later, we put the law on trial.

Major Issues Podcast Ep 386: Batman Forever Recap and Review

ComicBook CliqueComment

In this episode, the hosts revisit the neon-soaked, over-the-top world of Batman Forever in honor of its 30th anniversary! From Val Kilmer’s stoic take on the Dark Knight to Jim Carrey’s unhinged Riddler and Tommy Lee Jones’ chaotic Two-Face, we explore what worked, what didn’t, and why this Joel Schumacher-directed spectacle remains one of the most divisive Batman films ever made. Was it a misunderstood gem or the beginning of the Bat-franchise’s descent into camp? Tune in as we dissect the film’s legacy, behind-the-scenes drama, and the tantalizing myth of the Schumacher Cut. Holy anniversary, Batman!
