Countdown to Crisis: Kingdom Come

You’ll probably be aware by now that three versions of Superman will grace our screens in the Arrowverse’s upcoming uber-crossover Crisis On Infinite Earths. The most recent incarnation, Tyler Hoechlin’s Clark from the current Supergirl series, will be most familiar to viewers, while the second, played by Tom Welling, originated in the young Superman chronicle…

Kneel Before Pod – Electric Shelves (103)

The CW DC TV shows recently had the annual crossover with “Elseworlds” and Kneel Before Pod continued the annual tradition of covering it in the usual detail. Craig and Chris take audience questions, discuss body switching antics and answer the age old question – who’s hotter; Barry or Oliver? Craig can be found on this…

Elseworlds Part 3

The Elseworlds crossover wraps up with an evil Superman and the promise of bigger events to come in the relatively near future. I have mixed feelings about this crossover on the whole. On one hand I’ve found all three parts to be immensely entertaining but I’ve also found the storytelling problematic as it buries what…

Elseworlds Part 2

The Elseworlds crossover continues with a trip to Gotham City, the introduction of a bat themed vigilante and further development of the mounting threat.

I’ll freely admit that the crossover stories are something I look forward to every year. Even though I don’t always love the shows that participate in them I’m still fully invested in…

Superman #2

“Son of Superman Part Two” DC’s excellent Rebirth stories continue with the second issue of Superman. Unfortunately I was too busy to review issue 1 so hopefully I can make up for that with this one. This issue continues what was established in the previous one with the new Superman’s son, Jonathan starting to develop…

Round Table with Clancy Brown

Recently I had the opportunity to catch up with Clancy Brown in a round table scenario. He was attending the 70th Edinburgh International Film Festival to promote the 4K restoration of Highlander. He did a Q&A at the screening, attended a Ceilidh and generally enjoyed being back in Scotland after being away for so long….

Superman Rebirth #1

Contrary to the output of the past few months, Kneel Before Blog does review comics but the lack of evidence for that recently can be attributed to a lack of time on my part as well as anyone else. Now that the TV schedule has dried up a fair bit I’m very keen to revive…
