in the 60s was’nt there a kyptonite for non powered kyptonians?
Yes. Anti-Kryptonite.
I knew if I left this here, Isaumu would chime in! I also figured it was a thing, since I know there was Kryptonite for plants!
White Kryptonite. I never understood the logic of how that “proved” the existence of Krypton in the 50th century in that old Superboy story…
“Hey kid you want some white Kryptonite?
Rookie “What’s that one do?
“kills plants”
“Earth plants or Kypton plants? I mean why kill plants on a planet that blew up?
“multivese kid. Someday your gonna run into Super Swamp-thing!
I watched a Jack Ryder exposé on this. Turns out there is no “white kryptonite.” It’s just concentrated Roundup!
That’s even deadlier!
Great episode on a great episode, gang! I’m happy to see Fire & Water is honoring the diva clause on my guest contract: “When appearing on a Justice League-themed podcast, Captain Entropy will always be followed by JT the Exterminator, like the exquisite chocolate soufflé after a perfect steak.” Seriously, except for the fact that Courtney is hard to take in the first half, I loved this episode. I loved Warlord. Since we Air Force officers are constantly falling through portals to strange other worlds (see the Stargate franchise), it was always totally relatable. I wonder what the per diem pay is for Skartaris? The Leaguers other than first half Courtney are great, too, and it’s nice to see how they and their relationships have developed. You all covered that very well. I’m sorry Cindy isn’t down with the tough guy talk, but that’s just a matter of taste. Cindy, I heard “cringeworthy” (or the modern equivalent) and I heard scoffing noises, but I’m still not 100% sure what part bothers you. Does the word “cheesy” cover it?
I asked Cindy, and she said it was just too formulaic for her. Too “by the numbers”.
Got it! Makes sense.
Because I love blowing the minds of old comic book nerds who aren’t still reading most of the continuity…
Two characters you mentioned in this episode are dating nowadays. Take your guess… Done?
What if I told you it was Jimmy Olsen and Silver Banshee?
You’re welcome.
Consider my mind completely blown. If she yells at him…well Jimmy’s going to lose a lot of weight in a hurry!!!
I have to say Silver Banshee’s design is the best one from Byrne’s Superman run. It holds up over time, other artists can adapt it well, it’s beautiful and scary at the same time. The character herself and her powers always seem to change, but that’s more on the writers, and goes to show why it’s so hard to describe her deal except for “she looks cool!”
Great coverage of this episode, gang! I’m sorry for Cindy, but hey, you got ‘er done!
I think you’re right Tim. Byrne tapped into something that hadn’t quite crystalized into horror beauty yet. We can see what Jimmy sees in her…apparently!
Cindy is a trooper. If she made it through Doctor Phibes with me over on House of Franklin-Stein, she can handle Warlord. 😉
