Episode 138: The Replacements - The Flash

November 13, 2022 by Kurt Onstad

More so than most episodes, you’ll want to be sure you’re familiar with all the DC Universe eras in order to fully understand what I’m talking about, so here’s my first episode where I go through them in detail, as a YouTube video.

The original…but not the one who’s replaced.

Wally in his various outfits, while Barry watches over.

The Flash of China, and now the multiversal Flash!

You can see why they refer to this version as “Dark Flash.”

John! You forgot the rule: Flashes before lasses!

Bart looks more and more like his grandpa every day.

Episode 15: The Replacements - Superman

October 11, 2018 by Kurt Onstad

The Eradicator. Cyborg Superman. Steel. Superboy. Each claimed to be Superman's successor, but none were the true heir. Where did they come from, and what happened to them after Superman's return?

The story that brought these four to the forefront.

One of these turns out to be a villain. Any guesses on which?

The Eradicator’s original form. And yes, that’s Superman with a beard.

Just a slight transformation from his hand-held device form.

Not a replacement, just an homage to a hero.

Natasha takes over as Steel, and she means business.

Leather jacket, unnecessary thigh belt, sunglasses? Oh right, it’s the 90s.

Young Justice isn’t a great name, but Impulse wanted to call them Super Heroes In Training, so it could be worse (check the acronym…)

The 1990s eventually passed, thankfully for Superboy.

Superboy decides to take after his other “dad” for a little while. It doesn’t end well.

These things never go well for The Flash

A major crossover with no Superman, Batman, or Wonder Woman?
