Batman By The Numbers: The Past, Present, & Future of the DCU

There’s arguably no superhero in existence that has been reimagined, redefined, or reinterpreted more than Batman.  No matter how many times he’s been rebooted, audiences are always willing to come back to Gotham City’s greatest defender.  With so much Bat content out there, there’s plenty to dissect, analyze, and of course, rank!  This podcast is dedicated to a surgical evaluation of Batman’s history, with a focus on ranking several topics in the world of Batman, among other classic Bat themes and characters. Join host Daniel Cohen, Pop Break’s former Film Editor and Resident Bat-Maven, as he brings on several guests every month to share his passion for the one and only Dark Knight.  From Adam West to Robert Pattinson, no bat stone will be left unturned.  Bottom-line: If you’re a Batman fan, this is required listening. In this first episode of the new year, Daniel is reunited with the one and only Bill Bodkin, Editor-in-Chief of the Pop Break, as they delve into not just Batman, but DC on film! A few months ago, Daniel was a guest on the Socially Distanced Podcast to discuss the MASSIVE news of James Gunn and Pater Safran taking over DC Studios.  Now Bill returns the favor on this podcast, as the two dissect all the news, speculation, and absolute mayhem that has been DC these last few months since Gunn and Safran took over. But news and rumors aren’t enough for the Bat crew.  This podcast is a thorough evaluation of the DCEU, as the two discuss and debate DC’s PAST, PRESENT, and FUTURE.  Are the films of the past as bad as we remember?  Will Daniel once again have to defend BvS by himself for the 900th time?  (probably).  Will The Flash actually get released?   And of course, we get into all the big stories that have happened at DC over the last few months, including Henry Cavill’s time as Superman coming to an end, and what the state of Superman may hold. If you’re a diehard DC fan, this is a MUST LISTEN to episode.  Everything, and we mean EVERYTHING, is covered!
