About this episode

The episode discusses the graphic novel 'Kingdom Come' and its themes while reflecting on its impact since its release.

Merry ComiXmas! Week 10: KINGDOM COME "In a darkened future, ideals collide, Superman’s hope meets Batman’s dark pride. With legacy at stake, they clash in the night, Old heroes struggle, wrongs turned to right— In Kingdom Come, by Waid and Ross, they confide." " This holiday season, we're airing our 10 COMICS OF XMAS - an excuse to recommend and replay some our fav books that make a thoughtful gift for your loved ones (or great reading to comfort your dark and lonely nights) KINGDOM COME - by Mark Waid and Alex Ross - is the perfect comic for the person who thinks the world is about to end. Kingdom Come was a seminal (Wait, was it seminal? ... Yes. It was) graphic novel when it came out in the 90s. Nearly 20 years later, does the end of the DC Universe hold up? ALSO - this was our first ever Quarantined Comics episode from way back when in May of 2020. So how does THIS classic episode hold up?!? ...and from our family to yours, happy holidays =)
