This week on The Legends of the DCU Podcast! Drew Leiter and Cletus Jacobs travel to The Island of Mice and Men. Superman navigates major changes in his life, allies, and identity, learning from the veteran Hawkman and battling the devastating Parasite as Lex Luthor’s seemingly happy life takes an unexpected turn in Absolute Superman #15, 16, and 17. Wonder Woman and Batman race to solve Ares’ murder and clear Hippolyta’s name before war erupts between Olympus and the Amazons, uncovering a web of divine secrets and conspiracies while confronting their own struggles with loss, grief, faith, and hope in Wonder Woman #20 & 21. Wonder Woman defies the Justice League to rescue Etta Candy and a rogue Amazon from the tyrannical Mouse Man, liberating Moray Island while confronting the consequences of intervention, the threat of a possible future Matriarch, and the importance of compassion over fear and vengeance in Wonder Woman #22 – 28. All this plus, DC News, Shout Outs, and much, much more!
