This new Comic Book Bears Podcast audio episode is a little bit different. We were down to two bears in the cave this week so we elected to use this time together as a "backdoor pilot" for Steve Mowry's new horror-centered podcast The Bear Cave of Terror. BCOT will be available in its own feeds going forward but with Bill Z as the first of Steve's guest co-hosts, we are thrilled to present you our discussion of the seminal 1975 film Jaws as it celebrates its 50th anniversary this summer! Jaws was the first wide-release summer blockbuster which changed the way films were marketed forever and established its director Steven Spielberg as a major figure in filmmaking! We discuss the book that the film was based on, the cast, the later imitators and (of course) the scares!!!

However we still were able to get a little bit of comic book talk in as well, with the first issues of The New History of the DC Universe and Lazarus Fallen by Greg Rucka and Michael Lark from Image Comics getting the CBB chat treatment! So hit play and, for one hour and fifty minutes, DON'T GO NEAR THE WATER!  

We could not wait to bring you this episode!!!  Superman, the new film, is written and directed by James Gunn and is the kickoff movie for the new DC Universe media franchise! David Corenswet stars as Superman/Clark Kent, alongside Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor along with Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced and others. In the film, Superman must prove to a suspect world that he is a protector after billionaire Lex Luthor enacts a plan to turn public opinion against him. Be forewarned, this episode is COMPLETELY spoileriffic! We all weigh in on what we thought of the movie and, as has become customary for our film-centric episodes, we also offer up our suggestions of collected editions starring the characters from the film - in this case The Man of Steel, Superman: Birthright and Superman: Lost - that we hope you might enjoy! So, hit play and ... LOOK UP!
