This episode is as big as Lex Luthor's ego! We finally cover the legendary Elseworlds story Kingdom Come that sees DC Comics' holy trinity of Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman battling a new generation of meta humans, aging super villians, the United Nations and each other in Alex Ross and Mark Waid's epic tale of visions and visionaries. We talk through all four parts with special guest and Superman super fan Elliot from ElliotComicArt.

Ep. 92 What if we covered Elseworlds legendary tale KINGDOM COME from DC Comics?
With Special Guest Elliot of ElliotComicArt
Earth-22 as seen in Kingdom Come #1-4

On this jumbo size Dear Watchers we are covering one of the most iconic of all Elseworlds tales, Kingdom Come from writer/artist Alex Ross and writer Mark Waid. On this alternate Earth, a new generation of so-called heroes battle each other and the full villains that are left as the original JLA retreat into their later years. This all changes when a long absent Superman returns to reshape the planet but is he doing it for the better? The allstar comic cast also includes Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Lex Luthor, Captain Marvel, Green Arrow, Black Canary, The Spectre, The Sandman, Hawkman, Aquaman, Magog (in his debut) and so many others. We hear first-time reader Rob's reactions along with long time fan Guido as they cover all four parts of this epic story while also extensively covering the background behind this story and the histories of its two primary creators. We also speculate when we could see a Kingdom Come live-action or animated version in the future DCU.
