ATA's DC Nation Podcast Week 25 (Standard) “Comics That Personify Their Characters“
from Across the Airwaves Podcast (Standard MP3) · host Dan Schmidt & Nico Reifsteck
Hello DC Nationites, it's Dan here bringing you another Comic Book Discussion podcast episode! And now there's probably a guy in the back of a room somewhere letting out a slow uncaring clap. In all honesty, this is a shorter episode because we feel you guys on that one as it's really time for new Green Lantern and Young Justice. However, please try to indulge us one more week since there's some new stuff planned for our next couple of episodes and you've got to be excited about this podcast's discussion on Smallville Season 11 as the longest running TV incarnation of Clark Kent/Superman comes face-to-face with Batman. In addition, the other comic books we talk about today, The Flash and Supergirl are some of the best to come out of The New 52. Obviously, The Flash written by Francis Manapul was expected to be good but Supergirl was a surprise as it took the character of Kara in a whole new direction that felt as intense as a Bourne movie. However, what really makes these books great is that they personify their characters meaning that reading The Flash makes you feel like you are fighting criminals at the speed of light just like Barry Allen and the nonstop action featured in Supergirl makes your heart starts racing like your an innocent teenage girl who woke up on a strange world where it seems like you can't trust anybody. Again, with these comics personifying their characters we tried to do the same with this podcast as we threw in musical transitions and more that represented Supergirl and The Flash. Heck, we even sped through this episode and that's a flash fact. On top of that, Michael would be a human Supergirl would believe to have questionable motives as the song he used at the end of the episode even personified one of Flash's Rogues good old Captain Boomerang who has yet to appear in The New 52. So Francis Manapul if you're listening, there's your next story arc but make sure credit goes to Dan and Michael the hosts of the DC Nation Podcast.
