Did #Supergirl miss the point of Woman of Tomorrow? Man, did we want to love Supergirl. Instead, we walked away disappointed. We discuss the film's strongest positives, its biggest storytelling blunders, why the emotional payoff never landed for us, and more!

What? I'm just listening to Nick Drake and idea mapping in a notebook for the next newsletter. I wish I had some kind of… avocado panini situation.

One of the perks of running a DC podcast! Got an advanced copy of Daniel Dockery's "I Am The Night, The Ultimate Unauthorized History of Batman: The Animated Series"! (Comes out Sept 1)

Hey, night crew! I write poetry, flash fiction, short stories, etc. I'm an artist, graphic designer, photographer, and podcaster. I publish a newsletter about it. I say curse words and make pop culture references. I'd love to make friends. I'm going back to sleep now. Davidcroberson.substack.com

Playing catch-up today on several fronts! First up: creating show art for our Star Trek Universe review of “Is There in Truth No Beauty?” and then probably editing that episode. And scheduling it out to post for tomorrow.

So I really hate this trend of making “Happy Birthday” posts for elderly celebrities look like obituaries.

I was gonna try to stay up. Maybe do a reset to get off my shitty schedule. Then I cleaned the bedroom, changed the bedsheets, and showered. It's very, very hard to resist sleeping on fresh linens after having just showered. But I resisted… until it started raining.

Inside each person are two wolves. Unfortunately, outside each person are two blankets—one on the sofa and one on the bed—and neither will allow the wolves to do wolf things.

“THAT's NoT THE flEX you THiNK It iS.” My good man… the line between a flex and a shrug is a thin one indeed. Also, please find a new idiom to mindlessly parrot.

So what? I went through some old files of my writings, found a bunch of old essays, found the first draft to a novel… worked on that for the first time in 20 years… it's no big deal. I'm pretty excited about it though.

Since the internet is full of bad actors and clickbait headlines, I'll say it again here: Superman is still in theaters. The movie was released on VOD so everyone who wanted to see it before Peacemaker (premiering on HBO Max August 21) could.

Reminder: haters attack creatives for lots of reasons, but it usually just boils down to something being broken inside the hater. It probably doesn’t have anything to do with you.

I oscillate between “display everything you've done to show growth" and “delete every fucking thing you've ever written or said and die quietly in the dark, you fuck.” So, you know… good days and bad. 😉

Hello! I would like to be friends with rational individuals who love Star Trek! You needn't like all of it, and you must be okay with the fact that I won't be enjoying all of it, either. But you must understand that Star Trek has always been progressive. Any takers?

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 3×05, “Through the Lens of Time" was a FANTASTIC Star Trek episode, and I just recorded a really fun review episode of my podcast with Matt Carroll discussing it and excitedly cooking up fan theories! I'll share it here when it's uploaded!

This might be a question for the 30-40 somethings out there: Have you ever found yourself longing for the play order of an old mix tape or CD, searched for the mix and organized a Spotify or Apple music Playlist based on it because none of the band's albums sate you in the same way?
