We are all about girl power today in the Nerd Den. It’s yet another pit stop on our journey to Dawn of Justice, and this time the hero has girl parts. In this episode, we deconstruct the 2009 animated film, Wonder Woman, giving the demi-goddess her just due.
This is the first ‘solo’ Wonder Woman film since 1974, and she fairs much better here.
Also, we take another look at the CWDCTVU, discussing most recent episodes of Arrow, Flash, and Legends of Tomorrow.
Spoilers: King Shark returns!
It’s all DC this week on the latest episode of Nerdsense, the best source online for all that is nerdy. Cheers!

Whoa! Two Nerdsense Drinks in 2 days?! We have a fairly large back log of videos in the queue and this was a one off I did by myself on a snowy day.
It’s just me doing a head to head of 2 Pale Ales from 2 different FANTASTIC Massachusetts breweries. I do a side by side with Night Shifts Whirlpool Pale Ale and Trilliums Launch Beer Pale Ale.
Hope you like it!

Holy crap folks! We are another step closer to BvS. This week the train stops at Bruce Timm’s ‘Superman: Doomsday,’ the first appearance of the titular villain on film. We get an abbreviated interpretation of the classic Death and Return of Superman storyline, and your humble hosts do their best to give you the skinny on the very first entry into the ‘DC Universe Animated Original Movies’ series.
Also covered, albeit briefly, is the DCAU, including Batman the Animated Series, Superman the Animated Series, Batman Beyond, etc.
Finally, Deapool was released right before Valentine’s Day and we let you know whether he stole our hearts, or not.

Whoa! We’re not having a beer?! That’s correct! Mike brought back from Mamajuana from his Punta Cana vacation!
Here is the Mama Juana definition from Wikipedia
Mama Juana is a drink from the Dominican Republic that is concocted by allowing rum, red wine, and honey to soak in a bottle with tree bark and herbs. The taste is similar to port wine and the color is a deep red.

Whoa! It’s already part 3 in our Road to Dawn of Justice series! That means only 5 more episodes until we will be sitting in the Nerd Den recording our Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice review!

Hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed recording it because we had a GREAT time. Trust us. We recorded like 4 Nerdsense Drinks episodes before this so we were pretty happy!
