from The DCAU Review: A DC Comics Animation Podcast · host The DCAU Review
The temperatures are soaring and so is the Man of Steel as the Good Brothers return to Metropolis for the month of July with more reviews of Superman: The Animated Series. Their first critique this month is of the episode "Two's A Crowd" which features the second appearance of Rudy Jones aka The Parasite on the show. Join the hosts as they discuss a plot that sees several plot points lifted from classic thrillers including a few nods to Dr. Hannibal Lecter and a continued theme of horror elements involving the Parasite. Hear also about a joke that may have slipped by the censors involving Rudy's demands for help, Superman's water suit that may have been designed specifically to sell action figures, musical notes that rely heavily on the triumphant Shirley Walker Superman theme and some excellent voice acting from an actor best known from that other comic book universe. Plus some fun speculation on why S.T.A.R. Labs' books should've been audited and more Emil Hamilton hate all on this week's all new DCAU Review!
