    #91 - Clayface Movie Review

    "I'm coming after all of you. And hell's coming with me." Forget capes and superpowers. This time, we're getting our hands dirty! Alan Burke and Rob O' Connor dive into the twisted world of the new Clayface film, as DC brings one of its most fascinating and unconventional characters to the big screen. With horror, mystery and a healthy dose of the macabre on the menu, does Clayface deliver something genuinely different or did a Batman The Animated Series do it better 34 years ago? We get under the skin of the movie, dissect the performances, explore the story and deliver our verdict! One thing is for sure, things are a out to get messy!

    #89 - Clayface SPECIAL - The Animated Episodes

    "You know what I'd have given for a death scene like this?" In anticipation for the upcoming Clayface movie, Rob and Alan discuss the various iterations of the Man of Mud across comics, videogames and of course the legendary reinvention of the character as seen in Batman: The Animated Series. We discuss how the different versions in the comics informed the animated version, some of the other less-remembered versions in comics and later animated series and we give our thoughts on the trailer for the brand new film directed by Speak No Evil director James Watkins and starring Tom Rhys Harries as Matt Hagen from a story by Midnight Mass scribe Mike Flanagan.  PLUS: We get Alan's thoughts on Lanterns!

    #88 - LANTERNS Season 1 Spoiler Review (feat. Jan Rollings)

    "And I love you too, Junior..."   Rob is joined once again by Jan Rollings to discuss season one of DC's LANTERNS starring Aaron Pierre and Kyle Chandler. We discuss each of the characters and their corresponding actors, the major storylines of the season and the ramifications they may or may not have in the future as well as the (somewhat controversial) grounded style of the series and whether or not it was wise to take such a sci-fi/fantasy mythos and dial it so far back. And the all-important question: is the wirework in this modern prestige HBO show as good as the wirework in Superboy?! PLUS: We discuss the Marvel's Wolverine and the brand new Hellraiser Revival game.  SUPPORT & CONNECT WITH ALL STAR SUPERFAN PODCAST 🎧 Join our Patreon for exclusive bonus episodes and to help support the show (a brand new episode of A Podcast for the 90s: A Superboy Rewatch Podcast featuring Lance Laster from Always Hold Onto Arrow has just gone live!) ⭐ Rate and review All Star Superfan Podcast on Apple Podcasts 💬 Join the Inside All Star Superfan Podcast Facebook group 📩 Send us an email or a voicenote with your thoughts on this week’s episode EMAIL: allstarsuperpod@gmail.com FACEBOOK / INSTAGRAM / THREADS / BLUESKY: @allstarsuperfan Theme music by Shawn Allen  Production, Editing and Social Media Poster designed by Rob O' Connor  Any additional materials used for entertainment purposes only

    #87 - Spooky Special: HELLRAISER Franchise Deep Dive

    "We have such sights to show you..." Alan and Rob have fallen out of the skies of Metropolis and stumbled headfirst into Hell in this Halloween Special episode of All Star Superfan Podcast as we explore the forbidden pleasures and the agonizing pain of the Hellraiser franchise: Clive Barker's 1987 masterpiece "Hellraiser" and its nine sequels (!) and the 2022 reboot. PLUS: We discuss the original novella "The Hellbound Heart" and we discuss our expectations for the brand new single-player game "Hellraiser Revival".  How good is the first film? How bad are the straight to video sequels? Is that Henry Cavill?! How many Superboy actors featured in these films? All of these questions and so much more are answered in this spooktacular special episode!  SUPPORT & CONNECT WITH ALL STAR SUPERFAN PODCAST 🎧 Join our Patreon for exclusive bonus episodes and to help support the show ⭐ Rate and review All Star Superfan Podcast on Apple Podcasts 💬 Join the Inside All Star Superfan Podcast Facebook group 📩 Send us an email or a voicenote with your thoughts on this week’s episode EMAIL: allstarsuperpod@gmail.com FACEBOOK / INSTAGRAM / THREADS / BLUESKY: @allstarsuperfan Theme music by Shawn Allen (with spooky touches by Rob O'Connor) Production, Editing and Social Media Poster designed by Rob O' Connor  Any additional materials used for entertainment purposes only

    #86 - THE FORGOTTEN BvS - Batman Vs Superman Asylum (Feat. Zach Moore)

    "Here's the thing about blood.  You develop a taste for it. Then a thirst...And I knew if I started killing, I wouldn't stop..." Ten years on from BvS, we discuss how different it could have been! Rob is joined by Always Hold Onto Smallville host Zach Moore to discuss one of the many ill-fated attempts at reactivating the dormant Batman and Superman film franchises: the unproduced screenplay for Batman Vs Superman: Asylum from all the way back in June 2002, written by Andrew Kevin Walker with revisions by Akiva Goldsman (although apparently it was a lot more than that!).  The script features a retired Batman, a despondent Superman, an imprisoned Luthor, a clone of the Joker, some pretty bonkers twists and the kind of Kryptonite-powered continuity headaches only found in a 2000s DC script. All this and more! PLUS: With the finished film Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and the DCEU in the rear headlights, Rob and Zach debate as to whether this earlier version would have been a stronger outing for the World's Finest team.     SUPPORT & CONNECT WITH ALL STAR SUPERFAN PODCAST 🎧 Join our Patreon for exclusive bonus episodes and to help support the show ⭐ Rate and review All Star Superfan Podcast on Apple Podcasts 💬 Join the Inside All Star Superfan Podcast Facebook group 📩 Send us an email or a voicenote with your thoughts on this week’s episode EMAIL: allstarsuperpod@gmail.com FACEBOOK / INSTAGRAM / THREADS / BLUESKY: @allstarsuperfan Theme music by Shawn Allen Production, Editing and Social Media Poster designed by Rob O' Connor  Any additional materials used for entertainment purposes only

    #85 - SUPERMAN FOR ALL SEASONS - Is it actually that good?

    "Nice to meet you, Trev. Folks call me Superman" Is Superman For All Seasons really as good as everyone says it is? Or has its reputation reached Metropolis sized proportions? In the latest episode, Alan and Rob turn their attention to the acclaimed Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale classic, taking a close look at its story, artwork, characters, emotional impact and most importantly, whether it deserves its place among the greatest Superman stories. Is it a timeless celebration of the Man of Steel? A beautifully drawn love letter to Superman? Or is the hype flying a little too high? There is only one way to find out...READ THE BOOK!  One Superman. Four Seasons. Two Superfans. One question: does it live up to its reputation? Listen now and let us know what YOU think! Check out the All Star Superfan Patreon to hear TWO new episodes - a lookback at the 1977 Amazing Spider-Man TV show with Nicholas Hammond AND the latest episode of "Superboy: A Podcast for the 90s" featuring friend of the show, Digging for Kryptonite's Anthony Desiato!   SUPPORT & CONNECT WITH ALL STAR SUPERFAN PODCAST 🎧 Join our Patreon for exclusive bonus episodes and to help support the show ⭐ Rate and review All Star Superfan Podcast on Apple Podcasts 💬 Join the Inside All Star Superfan Podcast Facebook group 📩 Send us an email or a voicenote with your thoughts on this week’s episode EMAIL: allstarsuperpod@gmail.com FACEBOOK / INSTAGRAM / THREADS / BLUESKY: @allstarsuperfan Theme music by Shawn Allen Produced and edited by Alan Burke Social Media Poster designed by Rob O' Connor (using artwork from Tim Sale) Any additional materials used for entertainment purposes only

    #84 - SPIDER-MAN BRAND NEW DAY - Spoiler Review (with Jan Rollings)

    "Hi. My name is Peter Parker. You don't remember me, but we used to know each other." Rob is joined by special guest and long-time listener Jan Rollings to talk all about the 38th entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the latest Tom Holland box office leviathan, "SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY" directed by Destin Daniel Crettin. Will this finally bring the MCU out of the doldrums? Is the movie too long? Is organic webbing better than mechanical webshooters? How does it shape up against previous entries in the Spider-Man movie series? Where is Peter Parker earning all of his money? Why does Kevin Feige wear so many baseball caps? All of these questions and so much more!   Check out the All Star Superfan Patreon where Rob and Jan have an extended chat all about the previous Spider-Man movies and the popular videogame series!    SUPPORT & CONNECT WITH ALL STAR SUPERFAN PODCAST 🎧 Join our Patreon for exclusive bonus episodes and to help support the show ⭐ Rate and review All Star Superfan Podcast on Apple Podcasts 💬 Join the Inside All Star Superfan Podcast Facebook group 📩 Send us an email or a voicenote with your thoughts on this week’s episode EMAIL: Spider-Man PS1 stereo mix by Apollo 11 and Anganoff
