Our tour of DC's Absolute Universe continues with Absolute Superman Vol. 1: Last Dust of Krypton by Jason Aaron and Rafa Sandoval
But first, who can we blame for one of our least favorite interviews? Is Rodney Barnes returning to the podcast? Why does Rodney like Cody so much? Is Anthony blowing up in the comic book world? How would we rank the first 3 Absolute series? Is this a fresh take on Superman? How was Superman’s lore changed for this series? Is Clark Kent not an element in this story? Is this Superman anti-AI? Does a big part of this volume take place on Krypton? Is this a Superman for the working class people? Does this section of the Absolute universe reflect our own world more than the others? Are the Peacemakers equivalent to ICE? Could new readers easily jump into the Absolute Universe? How does it also appeal to legacy readers? How do Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen compare to their original versions? What role does Ras al Ghul play in this comic? Should villains for one hero cross over to other heroes? Who is Absolute Lieutenant Dan? Does the Absolute Univefsr feel cyberpunk? Who is Omega Prime? What Absolute series that hasn’t been announced yet would we like to see? What is Absolute Evil? What is Captain Cold’s eyewear possibly made out of? What makes Absolute Gorilla Grodd so different? What’s going on in Absolute Green Lantern by Al Ewing? Do we need to do more Earth One episodes? Why is Marvel already ending the Ultimate Universe? Are we torn between Marvel and DC? Have we covered Batman more than anything else on the pod? Will there be no more Chronic in 2026 or ABSOLUTE CHRONIC? Who is Satan busy torturing? What is the trap door theory?
And we play fuck, marry, kill with the Absolute Trinity!

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
