Wow! Conor’s quantum leap power demands a screenplay, now!
As a midnight street fighter I can add that no serious hand-to-hand combatant would have hair longer than a buzzcut. In such close quarters, you never want to give your opponent anything to grab onto which controls your head movement.
Just curious, why was there no Special Edition Movie Podcast for “Blade Runner 2049?” Were no iFanboys interested in it?
Your reviews on Punisher: The Platoon were so tempting.. you’ve made me want to buy my first Punisher comic in years! (I’d start with #1 of course.) Thanks for another great podcast.
BLADE RUNNER 2049 is on the rundown for the year end show.
I just saw a commercial for DOOMSDAY CLOCK #1 on TV. It aired during MR. ROBOT.
It’s good to see DC is taking the initiative of promoting the book to this extent. I hope future books can get this treatment, I mean can you imagine a Southern Bastards commercial during The Walking Dead?!
Sadly, this kind of thing is an outlier reserved for really big mainstream pushes from DC (I think the last time I saw a commercial for DC was… the launch of the New 52? I feel like there might have been another one after that.)
Marvel will never do this kind of thing because they hate to spend money. Image will never do this kind of thing because they don’t have any money.

Fun show, nice to hear Ryan again, although that dice thing was the worst ever power… even when he explained it to Conor, I was utterly lost. What’s the advantage of getting a number that’s one more than the number you threw? Mind, the constant hypotheticals when Conor was giving out powers was fun, I bet ‘why’ was his constant refrain as a toddler!
The Cosmic Treadmill predates the Speed Force concept, so even if DC writers today say it can only be used by SF users – and why would that be, did the parts come from a SF workshop? – I reject that in this fluxing Rebirth period! So yeah, Superman can use it.
Oh, and Comet isn’t a Kryptonian, he’s from ancient Greece.
Whoever compiled the list of iFanboy’s Patron Powers needs to compile a list of all DC characters who could use the Cosmic Treadmill. Because if Superman can use it, then so should Supergirl, Shazam, etc. I bet Wonder Woman can get that shit working. If I were Flash, I’d put a big padlock on my treadmill.
I think if Ryan has the capacity, he should definitely take Ron’s place as the third IFanboy. The format really excels when there are three editors chatting.
@cskilpatrick When are we going to get a Punisher Netflix special edition?
Punisher? If it were to happen it wouldn’t be until next year–I’m not going to have time to watch it until then. But I don’t know that I could get a team together to talk about it.
Have there been other Marvel Netflix shows that weren’t covered on iFanboy?
