    Nixon is clutching the nuclear launch codes and we took the month to anatomically put ourselves back together for this special patreon birthday episode. How could this go wrong?

    Kelly cracks open her first comic book to find a fun way to play philosopher. Is this really about masked avengers or is it just Kierkegaard in tights? We don't think, therefore we aren't sure. Challenging as a new medium can be, an expression of intellect is still not something to throw into a radioactive particle test chamber and disregard. The squid may have destroyed the city, but it won her heart. She's now on step 3 of the Veidt Method!

    Jimmy would like to fight, really he would, but from his spot on Mars... Zack Synder just feels so... insignificant. He saw all the atoms come together, but, though they might look a lot like the comic, the soul of the story just didn't make the director's cut. It doesn't take a Rorschach test to prove you're nuts for preferring the film to the comic. Or maybe you're just seeing a pretty butterfly?

    Count down the dooms day clock -and how many times Billy Crudup's blue penis is mentioned- with us. Comic or movie? It's all perspective.
