The Whatnauts

Episode 11. Our main course today is reviewing the graphic novel Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King and Bilquis Evely, an inspiration for the upcoming Supergirl movie. We talk about the plot and prose style borrowed from True Grit, how the Superman movie could affect Supergirl's origin story, the mystery of Comet the Superhorse, what rocks eat, and other Coen Brothers movies that should be retold with superheroes. Also, we cover more comics-based TV and movie casting news, advocate for Sheep Detectives, and need a constant to anchor us during a 3D movie that goes too many layers deep.
