Kevin Conroy absolutely warrants an episode dedicated to him.

I just get goosebumps everytime i hear a Conroy story. That man was a legend upon legends.

The reason why the fish people don't die at first is because they do have enhanced durability, but they are weak against sonic weapons, is shown when Shuri is rescued.

the one two punch of Kevin Conroy passing and then watching a three hour long tribute to Chadwick Boseman has made this a pretty emotional week. If you haven't gotten a chance to read Kevin's comic from the DC 2022 pride special please do, it's an amazing read

Nice show, boys. I’ll cherish my memory of working directly with Kevin; wherein I wrote dialogue (alongside Marv Wolfman and the late-great, Dwayne McDuffie), cast, and directed Mr Conroy in an iconic role. An honor to watch him work. RIP, Mr Conroy.

Beware The Gray Ghost is my favorite Batman episode, it always hits me emotionally. I'm sure the next time I watch it, I'm going to burst into tears.

53:49 I actually did get the sense that Namor had like an unlimited army in part because of the look of Talokan. The difference between this and Wakanda is that the Black Panther is treated as like the protector, the ruler and like a respected symbol of the nation which is passed down through the ages, whereas Namor is literally treated as a God King, a seemingly immortal supremely powerful being who rules over them. Wakanda has the feeling more like a conventional monarchy, where there are somewhat defined clans/tribes loosely organized under one sovereign, while Talokan feels more like Egypt or an absolute monarchy, where nearly all power is invested in the single person, so the resources are directed towards that one person, and the rest of the society is built around that.

It's really hard to see the hero of my Childhood pass by, he was the Best
Rest in peace Kevin Conroy

Didn't really love the Midnight Angels costumes but do kinda appreciate the commitment to the comic accurate suits.

@HalfyManBearPig 3 years ago

Absolutely loved the Conroy tribute!

@Jim-ow3df 3 years ago

Kevin will forever be my batman, I spent hours upon hours with him whether that was watching the cartoons or on the many many play throughs of the Arkham games. Thank you Kevin for all the good times and may you rest in peace.

So happy to hear someone spreading the good word of Jenny Nicholson! I discovered her videos during covid and binged all of them. Her videos about Evermore and Bronycon are some of her best work

I was under the impression the massive army Namor mentioned was all the marine life in the ocean.

I hope Godzilla & Kong is a buddy cop movie like Turner & Hooch. Not sure if Kong would be the straight man w/ Godzilla making a big mess or the other way around.
