This week on The Popcorn Podcast, Tommy and Ryan dive headfirst into two wild corners of the superhero universe. Where blood, chaos, and moral corruption reign supreme.
We kick things off with the explosive Season 2 finale of Peacemaker, as James Gunn’s brilliantly deranged DC series goes out with a bang (literally). From jaw-dropping betrayals to surprisingly heartfelt moments, this finale cements Peacemaker as one of the most unhinged yet emotionally resonant superhero stories on TV. Then, we’re heading back to Godolkin University for Gen V Episodes 3–6, where the next generation of Supes faces new enemies, shocking revelations, and an ever-thickening web of Vought’s dark secrets.
🦅 Peacemaker S2 Finale:
Total Carnage: Breaking down the epic showdowns, unexpected alliances, and gut-punching losses that bring this wild season to a close.
Heart Behind the Helmet: Exploring Peacemaker’s journey from selfish killer to broken anti-hero searching for purpose.
DC’s Mad Genius: Why Peacemaker continues to prove that James Gunn’s brand of chaos is the future of superhero storytelling.
💉 Gen V Eps 3–6:
Midseason Madness: How these episodes up the ante with shocking deaths, twisted experiments, and jaw-dropping reveals.
Power and Paranoia: The growing divide among the students as loyalty, corruption, and control take center stage.
The Boys’ Legacy Lives On: Why Gen V Keeps the Spirit of The Boys Alive While Carving Out Its Own Blood-Soaked Identity.
