Superhero Bibliophiles still has a few episodes in the queue, plus the SBP Classic shows from the old Patreon show. And until we're back with new episodes, you can follow me on my personal Bluesky, @percivalconstantine.com or by checking out my other work: linktr.ee/percivalcons...
Superhero Cinephiles is going to be on a temporary hiatus for the immediate future. Everything’s okay, I’m just entering a busy period at work and I’ve exhausted my supply of movie episodes.
Pulp author Gordon Dymoski returns to the show to discuss the animated adaptation of Frank Miller’s Batman: Year One! Though lauded as one of the best of DC’s animated adaptations, we found it sometimes adhered a bit too closely to the source material.
Author and superhero fan Matt Farley makes his debut on the show to discuss the trippy 2001 film, Donnie Darko! We discuss both versions to get to the bottom of this flick. superherocinephiles.com/donniedarko/
This looks promising!
Unfortunately no, not even close to the area.
Nice! You’ll love this episode, then. Scott and I are big fans of 90s X-Men.
We’re going back to the 90s! Though this era of X-Men is heavily maligned, for Perry and returning guest Scott Honig, it represents when they got into comics. And today, we revisit one of the quintessential 90s X-Men stories — Fatal Attractions!
Logan Crowley is back for a spirited debate over 2006’s Ultimate Avengers: The Movie, the animated adaptation of the first arc of Mark Millar and Bryan Hitch’s infamous comic, The Ultimates. superherocinephiles.com/ultimateaven...
In another comic book episode, Stacy Dooks returns to discuss James Robinson and Paul Smith’s JSA: The Golden Age! Originally an Elseworlds story, parts of it have seeped into mainstream DC continuity. And some of it is alarmingly prescient today!
Alex Marcus of The Pop Break returns to the show to discuss Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the long-awaited sequel to Into the Spider-Verse!
*Sorry for the delay in new episodes, folks.
IT LIVES
@percivalconstantine.com from @superherocinephiles.com and @japanonfilm.com stops by to take a stab at the EVERYTHING that is Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Can we even pull this off?

Derrick passed away in 2021. Anyone who's listened to a single episode in the past five years or even read the website would know that.
If you can't spare the time to a single episode or even write the damn email yourself, then I'm not going to waste my time nor my listeners' time on you.
Screenshot of email from disingenuous marketer using AI. Text follows: Hi Perry and Derrick, I just caught your episode reflecting on Planetary: The Fourth Man, especially your shout-out to fans ready to revisit All Over the World and Other Stories. The way you highlight continuity in comic storytelling, and connect it to engaged communities like Gordon’s Doctor Who Meetup, really hit home as someone who sees how powerful shared worlds can be for fans and creators alike. With that in mind, I’d love to suggest [REDACTED], the creator behind [REDACTED], as a guest for Superhero Cinephiles. [REDACTED] work draws from an expansive universe full of action-adventure and fantasy, most notably in series like [REDACTED]. [REDACTED] recently recognized [REDACTED] for “[REDACTED],” and their recent deal with [REDACTED] is putting their stories in local shops each month. [REDACTED] honest approach to world-building and his experience engaging nearly 23,000 readers from comic, fantasy, and gaming communities means he’s more than ready to bring something fresh to your conversations about superhero, sci-fi, and fantasy media. I think your listeners would appreciate hearing firsthand how these new universes come together and why connective threads really matter to fandom. Thanks for considering [REDACTED], and for making your show such a thoughtful space for passionate comic fans.
I'm very welcoming of new guests, regardless of what sort of platform they have (or no platform). The one rule I have is you have to be genuine.
Getting some marketing agency to spam my inbox with AI-crafted bullshit like this is the quickest way to end up on my blacklist.
Sy Islam returns to the show to discuss Superman/Batman: Public Enemies. Reuniting Tim Daly, Kevin Conroy, and Clancy Brown, this adaptation of the first Jeph Loeb/Ed McGuinness Superman/Batman story-arc has a lot going on…at times maybe too much!

Another excellent series. And the only place after 3.0 (other than Morrison’s single-issue relaunch) that featured Jack Marlowe.
On the Superhero Bibliophiles show, Mike Sangregorio joins Perry to discuss Joe Casey’s revolutionary reinvention of WildCATS and how it deserved to last longer.
Marsden’s wearing that 90s Cyke costume well!
Will Short returns to the show to discuss Justice League: Doom and how it compares to the comic it’s based on.
Logan Crowley comes by Superhero Bibliophiles to talk about the Superman vs. Mongul collection of stories, including the classic "For the Man Who Has Everything." And we find some surprisingly prescient political allegories in that story.
Eoin Smith is back again to discuss Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero. Overshadowed by all the negative press received for Batman & Robin, it's time to give this film a second look.
In our latest comic discussion episode, Kaz Wheeler stops by to break down DC's Blackest Night crossover event!
Nic and Dani are back again to talk about Anthony Mackie’s first big-screen outing as the new Captain America in Captain America: Brave New World! There’s a lot to unpack here, from the missteps to the missed opportunities and how this movie could have been great if Marvel didn’t get cold feet.
Fellow podcaster Derick McDuff returns to discuss Madame Web. Yet another of Sony’s attempts to create a Spider-Man universe without Spider-Man, and with a cast that’s sleepwalking through pretty much the entire production.
WHAAAAAAAT?!?
