Super Mates Episode 3 - The Best of Batman: The Animated Series

March 13, 2014 | 0 comments

It’s Bat-Mania! We begin with the first installment of “Super Mates Theater”. Robin is late to school! How’s a Batman going to get him there on time? Take the Tumbler!

Then on to our feature, audio commentary on two key episodes of Batman: The Animated Series! A name from the past splits the Dynamic Duo, as Batman sidelines his trusted partner, leading both to recall the events that brought them together years ago. Watch along with Chris and Cindy Franklin as they give you their take on the classic 1st season episode “Robin’s Reckoning, Part 1”.

Then we jump forward to the second version of BTAS, with The New Batman Adventures episode, “Legends of the Dark Knight”. Three young kids have three very different ideas of who and what The Batman is, and two of them happen to match some of the most famous versions from the character’s comic history! Listen to the geekout as Chris gushes over his love of Bill Finger and Dick Sprang, and Cindy roots for Frank Miller’s Carrie Kelly Robin!

That’s more Caped Crusader than you can shake a Batarang at! So join us as we explore the shadowy alleys and rain-soaked rooftops of Gotham City, or actually SEVERAL versions of Gotham City!

Be sure to let us know what you think! What are your favorite episodes of BTAS? Let your voice be heard! We’d love to read it aloud in an upcoming episode. Drop us a line in our comments section, or email us at supermatespodcast@gmail.com. We’re also on Facebook!

SUPER MATES EPISODE 2 – COMIC COUPLES PART 2

February 27, 2014 | 0 comments

Valentine’s Day may be over, but the love-in continues! Join Chris and Cindy as they tackle the loves and losses of comicdom’s most famous red and blue heroes! Yes, it’s DC and Marvel’s flagship characters, Superman and Spider-Man!

Follow Spidey and his bride-to-be-and-yet-never-was Mary Jane from that first famous door knock, to the deal with the devil that undid it all.

Then stop by Metropolis to visit comics’ first couple, Lois and Clark, who finally made good on 50 years of “will-they-won’t-they” to ultimately land on “they never did”.

The winding road of romance proves their greatest enemies for happiness not to be Lex Luthor or the Green Goblin, but executives at the very companies they keep afloat!

Super Mates Episode 1 -Comic Couples Part 1

February 13, 2014 | 0 comments

It’s our debut episode, and it’s Valentine’s Day! Join Chris and Cindy Franklin as they reveal the Secret Origin of their relationship, and how it involves comics. Then we get to the topic at hand, and examine some of comicdom’s greatest couples and learn lessons in love and marriage, including;

  • Self-mutilation to save your child.
  • When is it okay to wear dominatrix gear and torture your spouse and teammates?
  • Fostering a strong marriage with an inescapable reincarnation curse hanging over your heads.

Chris and Cindy pick apart the so-called wedded bliss of Aquaman and Mera, the Fantastic Four’s Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman, and Hawkman and Hawkgirl. It’s a journey through comic history, including retcons, reboots, reimaginings, and Hollywood as the Franklins prove love can survive even the most convoluted stories writers can throw at it.
