·1 hr 22 min·5 clips

Jong returns from a severe sinus infection just as Daredevil spoiler talk and Comicpalooza announcements begin.

The episode opens with Jong Lee returning from a sinus infection, sharing personal health updates. The hosts transition to pop culture discussions, starting with housekeeping: Comicpalooza 2026 is announced for May 22-24 at the George R. Brown Convention Center, featuring Lawrence Fishburne, Halo voice actors Steve Downs and Jen Taylor, and fellow podcasters. Michael mentions moderating a sci-fi/fantasy author panel at the Book Dragon Festival on June 13, with authors K.R. House, J.J. Kang, D.L. Jennings, and Abby Fox. The main review segment begins with the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow trailer, where hosts analyze Kara's psychological scarring from witnessing Krypton's destruction, contrasting her with Superman. They note the trailer's focus on emotional stakes and clarify that while James Gunn is involved, the film is directed by Craig Gillespie and written by Ana Nogueira. The core of the episode is a spoiler review of Daredevil: Born Again episodes 2 and 3. Hosts discuss the plot involving Wilson Fisk framing Matt Murdock, Karen Page's potential killing of an anti-vigilante task force member, and the introduction of White Tiger (Angela). Criticisms include over-editing, repetitive exposition, and hand-holding for viewers, but praises include brutal fight scenes, lighting symbolism, and character moments like Matt and Karen debating ideologies. Other topics include Bullseye's chaotic role, Daniel Blake's potential as Fisk's heir, and speculation about Jessica Jones appearing. The episode concludes with reminders to follow the podcast on social media and leave ratings.
