Super Movie Monday – Superman Returns, Part 3
This is it, the conclusion to our titanic three-part recap of Superman Returns, and the end (sort of) of our months-long odyssey through the Superman theatrical films. When we left off last week, Lois (with Lois Jr. in tow) had … Continue reading
Out of the Vault – Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars

Super Movie Monday – Superman Returns, Part 2
Continuing a three-part recap of 2006’s Superman Returns, Bryan Singer’s bigger, faster, louder ode to the original 1978 film. But before we get back into the plot, a word about Brandon Routh’s eyes. They are brown. Not in the film, … Continue reading
