Summary

The Good Brothers are back home safe and sound int the DCAU-proper after a brief multiversal anomaly in last week's episode, with another review of Static Shock and this week's season 2 episode "Sunspots." The hosts break down a plot that feels like two separate ideas melded together with a less than stellar result. Cal & Liam also talk about the very Disney-fied animation from this week's animation studio, and a voice cast that has guest stars noticeably absent. The hosts also discuss the purpose/need for "Zap-caps", Cal comes to grips with the Static style of music and much more fun all on this week's DCAU Review!

    Ep. 173 - DCAU Character Spotlight - Blight

    Release Date: 08/28/2021

    Description: As discussed on last week's episode, the Good Brothers are trying out a different kind of review this week, as they change things up from the standard episode/scorecard format to highlight a single character in the DCAU. With this month being all Batman Beyond episodes, the fellas thought it would be poignant to talk about arguably, the Future Knight's greatest adversary Derek Powers aka Blight. Hear the hosts discuss his entire DCAU story arc from beginning to end, the dual-natured threat of both of Derek Powers' personas, and his place in both Batman Beyond and the DCAU's history. Plus his greatest moments on screen, his appearances in DCAU tie-in material and main DC Continuity as well as a look back at his lackluster representation in action figure form. Plus a discussion of Sherman Howard's unforgettable performance that brought Blight to life, Blight's memorable music moments and more in depth discussion. All of this, a preview of next month's reviews and much more await you on this week's all new DCAU Review!
