Show Notes

This is a spiritual sequel to our first collaboration, the Primo Lefter episode on Arctic Dogs, which you can hear in our premium feed.

Evan and friend of the show Mattie Washburn from Watchtower Database are here to give you a comprehensive review of the last installment in the DC Animated Movie Universe, capping off seven years of storytelling.

Justice League Dark: Apokolips War sees the Justice League, John Constantine, the Suicide Squad, and the Teen Titans come together to face an existential threat: Darkseid's conquest of all reality. They quickly learn that all of their strength isn't enough, and are left picking up the pieces in the wake of tragedy. 

We discuss our favourite installments of this 15-film series, Geoff Johns and Jason Fabok's Darkseid War Saga (which loosely connects to this film), which DC heroes we would send to Apokolips, and go through the highlights of the story - all the way from a kryptonite-infused Superman to bottoming for King Shark. It's a journey.
