I wasted far too many of my years as a comic book fan complaining that Superman was “boring” or “vanilla”. It honestly wouldn’t be until within the last ten years or so that I would start appreciating who Clark Kent is as a character and look to abandon the whole notion that he was boring because he is too powerful. Superman’s powerset isn’t the defining … Continue reading Top Ten: Superman Stories
I’ve been sitting on this idea for SO LONG! You see, SEVERAL YEARS AGO, when I was doing my previous podcast, my then-cohost and I were asked to guest star on another podcast for their Pod V Pod challenge. Those challenges had two quiz rounds, followed up by a draft challenge. The draft for that episode was Best Non-Disney/Pixar Animated Movies. I had a blast … Continue reading Top Ten Non-Disney Animated Movies
And we are once again back as we look back at Wizard Magazine’s list of the Top 100 Single Issue Comics Of A Seemingly Arbitrary Time Period. If you want to check up with comics #100-26 that got us to this point, click HERE. With that, I’m VERY excited to get into this part of the list because, well, I already sneaked a peak at … Continue reading The Top 100 Comic Books Of A Lifetime, #25-21
Yes, it’s been a while! I know, I know! I’ve been busy. Let’s get right into it. Not fair to make you wait any longer. For more on this list recounting up to this point, click HERE! Just follow the links backwards. #35) Omega Men #26 My very limited experience with anything having to do with The Omega Men is entirely the Tom King mini-series … Continue reading The Top 100 Comic Books Of A Lifetime, #35-26
What’s up party people, this is ya boy Joey, the host of the So Wizard Podcast and here is my list of the best TV show theme songs! Right off the bat, let’s be honest here, I didn’t make this list to win the poll. In fact, this isn’t even really a list of the best theme songs, but it’s MY choices for the best. … Continue reading Top Ten: TV Theme Songs (By SO WIZARD!)
It’s June! The official start of summer! Now, the movie industry will tell you that the summer starts in May, even possibly encroaching into the end of April, but I don’t buy it. Here in the Northern Hemisphere, summer starts June… June… June twenty-somehingth. I’m not sure exactly. It’s definitely a solstice. But that’s not the point. The point is… not May. They can release … Continue reading Top Ten: Summer Blockbusters
We all knew it had to come back to this. I’ve done Best Part 3, Best Part 4, and Best Part 5+. I’m not sure why I initially skipped Part 2, but… here we are. Looking back at the best Part 2’s in movie history! Out of order. It’s FINE. Anyway, this is MY best. Not YOUR best. You’ll have your own Best. Tell me … Continue reading Top Ten Sequels Of All Time
First, a disclaimer of sorts. You’re probably expecting two hosts of a music podcast to have something poignant and intelligent to say about their Best Songs of the 2010s list, but they can’t all be winners, amirite? Sometimes a jam is just a jam and you can’t explain it. If you’ve listened to our podcast then you probably already know that our tastes differ pretty … Continue reading Top Ten: Songs of the 2010’s (BY ROCK CANDY!)
Moving on with our coverage of the most annoying/boring/uninspired Pokémon in existence, we journey to the water-covered Hoenn region, and see what it has to offer us for just bottom-of-the-barrel Pokeys. We’ve previously covered Kanto and Johto, and our current team of bad pokeys sits at Jynx and Unown. And you know what? There’s not even anything outrageously bad here in Hoenn. You’d think that … Continue reading Bottom 5: Worst Generation 3 Pokémon
We’ve done the best Threequels! We’ve done the best Part 4’s in franchises! You know what’s next, right? No, not Part 5’s. Don’t be absurd. That was honestly where I was going to go, but JESUS CHRIST that would be near impossible to make even halfway entertaining. There would, what, 3 quality movies? MAYBE? So I decided to throw everything left all into the pot … Continue reading Best Part 5+ In A Franchise
To include independent comics in this list or not; that was the question. The problem that I ran into is that so many independent comics–Saga, Hellboy, Fables, Monstress, Strangers In Paradise, Spawn, and so many more–are so inextricably linked to their supporting cast that the idea of a “main character” in those books can get lost in the shuffle. Sure the BPRD are a support … Continue reading Top Ten Supporting Casts In Comics
ALEX’S TOP FIVE With respect to our host’s, and my Contrarian Compadre’s, lists, I went in a bit of a different direction. In preparing for this, I realized the truest way I could do it would be by providing the blockbusters that meant the most to me. The ones I lived through. So, my list will only consist of those I went to the theater … Continue reading Top Ten: Summer Blockbusters (by THE CONTRARIANS!)
Oh man did I call this one. Previously, when I ranked the best Part Three’s in movie franchises, I noted that when I started putting together the list, I was SHOCKED by how many of them were great. I ended up leaving off several high quality movies because there was such a dearth of winners when movies hit their third entry. So I wondered… if … Continue reading Top Ten: Best Part 4’s In A Franchise
We’re back, as I INCREDIBLY RELUCTANTLY list the worst Pokémon of each generation. (At least the first six generations) ((We’ll see from there)) What is the basis for a determining a “worst” Pokémon? It’s easy and scientific! I look at a list of all Pokémon created in each new region, and then I think to myself “Oh, I didn’t like that one for reasons”. And … Continue reading The Bottom Five: Worst Generation 2 Pokemon
So the Stew invited me back for this very timely article, and I’m very happy that they did. You see, the last time we did this and put our articles up for vote as to who’s was best, well, I humbly won. Now, do I expect to win again you may ask? I answer with a resounding- Yes. Yes I do. Ok, now that that’s … Continue reading Top Ten: Fictional Mothers (by THE PINT!)
