Tomorrow's Legends

Hello Lantern Corps! We may be in 2026, but we dive into Hal Jordan's past. We see who and what shaped him into the man we know. We also investigate his relationship with Kerry and John. Both Hal's father and grandfather were pilots and continued the legacy. Hal was taught to fight for and stand up for himself by his father. But for all the positive things passed down through the Jordan Boys there was something else. Hal's grandfather and father dealt with pain and depression. They each left a safe of things to pass down. They then took to the air and didn't return. They took their lives in ways that protected their families and legacy. Now we have an idea of why Hal was the way he was. He left a safe for John before he died. But he didn't leave a note, other than the Halogram. This is John, Halogram and us questioning Hal's death.  Did he kill himself and was it covered up by the murder angle. Or did he let someone he knew kill him to end the pain. We have questioned why he stopped backing up the Halogram in

Hello Lantern Corps!  10 years have passed since the battle in Rushville. There is major fallout.  Hal took the fall and has been in prison for all that time until recently. The Guardians created a new ring and made Guy Gardner the Green Lantern. The people who could leave Rushville did. The ones who stayed are bitter.  John has reconciled with his brothers. He and his younger brother, Marcus, have started a successful architecture firm building saferooms and safe shelters for the crazy world. John is about to close on a deal with his city and the military to build multiple shelters for the town. But his mom calls and convinces him Hal want to reconcile. John reluctantly heads to Rushville. Hal moved to Rushville. He has been dating Kerry and trying to make amends with the townspeople. But He didn't ask John to come. He is not going to apologize to him. He tells John not to let anyone know he was there. John just gets home when he gets the call from Sherrif Kane that Hal is dead. He returns and hears from Ker

Hello Lantern Corps! Rushville is a battle zone. Zoe has unleased the satellites on the people to drain Hal's ring in protecting them. Antaan and his aliens are taking people down with weapons and by blowing themselves up. The showdown of 2016 has come. Hal has had John call in the aliens and Hal sets them against Will Macon. Zoe knows it. She lets Will sacrifice his life for her. She heals John so he will turn over Hal. Hal makes his way to Zoe and fights to get near her. Antaan comes to blow her up. But Hal takes him out. Hal flies the copter to the hotel to charge the ring. John and Hal fight and Hal is left as bait. John takes out Zoe. He turns over Zoe's heart to Lianna. He then gives her the Lantern and the Ring turning down the job. Hal was addicted to it. John has never had a choice and now he chooses to walk away.

Hello Lantern Corps! Hal feels out of his depth and visits his mentor Sinestro for info on Manhunters.  What he gets is a warning to watch and sabotage John Stewart. Lianna tells John the Guardians are done with Hal. John needs to say the oath while wearing the ring to become the Green Lantern. Both men seem set against each other. But they still have a mission in Rushville. John finds Will's building at the center of his operation.  The Weenie, a Disney term for the center of everything that gets built around, is where they think the Manhunter is at.  After consulting Sheriff Kane, they make a nighttime move on the building. John gets the ring, pauses thinking about taking the oath, and then makes a tunneling machine.  The two men get to The Weenie and find no Manhunter, but a lot of advanced tech. Hal sets off an alarm and Will's guards take them out with darkness guns. They are taken to Will. He asserts his power over them. He forces John to draw him nude while Zoe and Hal watch. He tells them that he was

Hello Lantern Corps! We have jumped onboard the Waverrider and followed the life of John Stewart and his family. They man has been raised like no other to be the man he is today. True to the comic origin, the ring visited several people before choosing Hal Jordan.  Here we learn that the ring visited John Sr. The fears of being there for his family and being a black man in society caused him to be passed over. His wife, Bernadette, does not believe him until Lianna shows up.  She is a Guardian in disguise. She offers a huge diamond in compensation for the loss of the ring. But her conversation with Bernadette helps her to learn why John Sr. has fear in his heart.  She hints that John Jr. could be a Lantern if raised right. Bernadette and John Sr. begin training John not to have fear.  He is separated from society and even his brothers. He is repeatedly tested by having apples shot off his head. He is dropped in the ghetto and must find his way home. He is told the birds are spies for the Guardians. Bernadette

Hello True Believers! It's that awful time again when our show comes to a season end. At least it's just a season end as we have two more seasons coming at least.... The finale of S2 continues the story through line of Rogue and Gambit, as the the teams all come to a head against each other in an epic final battle. Can she get through to him while Apocalypse has taken over? What will she have to sacrifice in order to save him? That ends up not even being her choice as someone else steps in to make the sacrifice for her......and we're left in shock and tears once again....

Hello Lantern Corps!  The action this week was between two towns instead of time periods. We had some mysteries answered but more questions raised. Join us as we cover Lanterns "Trust Fall." Hal rudely awakens Jon for a flying lesson.  The instructions are fly. John does not even move. But he creates a live bird construct from the ring. Hal has already booked him a plane ticket to Coast City to pick up the Lantern to charge the ring up. So all he really wanted to do was get John out of town. With John gone, he heads to main street finding everyone in a town hall. After a disagreement with Sheriff Kane, and a request to leave town from his lawyer, he heads to the morgue. He steals all the alien bodies.  He has found out that the metal detectors are really alien detectors. He does not listen to Sheriff Kane and questions Will about the tech and targeting aliens. He is told to leave town, but refuses and gets shot. He is taken to the hospital and questioned by Kerry after he wakes up from surgery. The hospital

It's the penultimate episode of X-Men '97 season two! Rogue once again is the center of everything that's going on, and it's all because Gambit is back!

Cable is on a single mission. To take down Apocalypse at all costs, even if it means betraying his parents, Scott and Jean. And his target? Gambit.  What does all this mean? Well tune in to find out the theories and possibly some answers, as this one presented a lot questions and mysteries.

Hello Lanter Corps!  We have heard the call for help and landed in Rushville Nebraska.  It's a good thing the Waverrider can travel in time. Because it looks like there are mysteries in two different eras.  We are here to help the Lanterns with both! In 2016 veteran Green Lantern, Hal Jordan, is reluctantly training John Stewart.  John was chosen by the Guardians (leaders of the Lanterns) to be the next Green Lantern. This is not how it usually goes and Hal is not exactly happy. Hal is an Airforce vet and used to doing things on his on and in his own style.  John is a Marine Corps vet and son of a vet. He is used to structure and leadership.  Their training is interrupted when a mass casualty event brings them to Rushville. Hal knows that aliens are at the heart of the issue. But he must convince Sheriff Kane and John.  Aliens are there but so is a militia headed by Kane's father-in-law, Will Macon. We jump to 2026. John has been called by Sheriff Kane back to Rushville. It is Winter and a frozen and dead H

It's a trial of heart this week as we see Nightcrawler fighting for his half brother, Graydon Creed, during a trial against mutants on the island of Savage Land. This is a stand out episdoe for Kurt Wagner, as we being to understand what he's all about, and how strong his faith is, and what he's willing to do to give someone a second chance. Colossus also joins the cast and the team as he has to decide which side he wants to represent!  Contact Information If you want to join in the discussion for X-Men '97, you can submit feedback via email to TomorrowsLegendsPodcast@gmail.com.

Well Unlimited Leaguers we have come to the end of season 2 of Justice League Unlimited. We had a 2-part finale with Panic in the Skies and Divided We Fall. Then we closed the season with an Epilogue. Panic in the Skies see Galatea and the Ultimen sent by Cadmus to attack the Watchtower. It is an all-out battle with our core League members having surrendered to the Government. Steel & Supergirl are able to defeat Galatea but the League has no way to get to earth. Divided we fall see the core League members and Amada Waller turning on Lex. But they don't have a victory, because Brainiac takes him over fully. Brainiac & Lex take over the Darkhart tech, and it is a hard battle for our heroes. Flash is able to use the Speedforce to separate Lex and Brainiac. The League is able to pull him back from the Speedforce. Superman wants to disband the League. However Green Arrow and the world will not accept it. So they pledge to have an embassy and do better to serve not from above the world but in it. Epilogu

It's time for Polaris to shine like a green sun in the afternoon sky!! Wow, do we ever get a good look at who she is and what she is capable of, and it's fantastically awesome! We see Xavier struggling with his grief over the loss of Magnus, his best friend, and is using the danger room to help him work through it. But the danger room starts thinking on it's own, and seeing the constant failures, decides it needs to make things more difficult so the X-Men can survive in today's world of mutant haters. That self awareness and thought brings it to sentient life and it escapes the danger room in it's new cyborg like body! Proving to be a bit more than the team can handle, Xavier powers up Polaris with memories of how her father, Magneto, could control his strength, and that allows her to unleash her full power, stopping Danger...for now... It's an episode full of emotion, action, and tearful reunions, and a green star rejoining the team! Contact Information If you want to join in the discussion for X-Men '97, yo

It's a legit two parter this week! Lex Luthor continues his triple crossing schemes fooling Amanda Waller into thinking Cadmus is working with him, while also fooling the League that he is trying to help the world, and then also fooling the current president that they're all working together!  It's getting serious. Superman is losing his cool, as he's the only one that won't buy into Luthor's false words, and this time it gets out of control as he fights Captain Atom, who rejoined the air force!

Did we say a single episode this week? Whoops...our bad...we decided to throw in our coverage of the second issue of the S2 comic as well since it's a tie in to the episodes! Wolverine is on one single mission: get back his adamantium! But he doesn't tell anyone on his team, not even Morph, and that leads to some trouble and some broken trust And just when you think that's all that's going on, surprise! The Brood are here as well! The aliens like creatures are here to steal mutant bodies to breed with and it's a fury of survival to get out of there alive!

It's double clashing this week as both episodes deal with League members who don't necessarily get along! First in Clash, Captain Marvel gets himself in trouble as he can't keep his mouth shut, and he disagrees with Superman about Lex Luthor. It kicks off an all out brawl that decimates the city, that ends up in him quitting the League and the founding members have to look themselves in the mirror. Next in Hunter's Moon, Hawkgirl leads a mission to space, with Vixen and Vigilante in tow, and it's a facedown on who should actually lead, and who should actually date Green Lantern!

Are you in for a doozy? We mean, the two episodes covered here are doozy enough, but we really get into it all for you. All the history, backstory, connections, it's all here as you know you can trust us to bring you! Rise of Apocalypse Part 1 & 2....simply WOW.....and WOAH....and....yeah..pretty speechless after that one. X-Men '97 is showing us and all other animation studios exactly how it should be done. In fact, the movies should take note, and see how a 30min cartoon can write such powerful stories with important dialogue that keeps you invested with uninterupted attention. This is storytelling.  Contact Information If you want to join in the discussion for X-Men '97, you can submit feedback via email to TomorrowsLegendsPodcast@gmail.com.

The Suicide Squad) this week.  Waller is a planner and wants to protect the world from the League by any means. Batman and the League must examine themselves and their crew carefully. "The Doomsday Sanction" has a confrontation between Batman and Waller that leaves them both shaken. She and her allies are creating means of stopping the League to prevent what happened with the Justice Lords. In this process, they created Doomsday. The Justice Lord's Superman lobotomized Doomsday. But he has regenerated and is set free by Dr. Milo. Doomsday interrupts the League's rescue mission and fights Superman. Batman stops the Kryptonite nuclear bomb and Superman traps Doomsday in lava. The League sends him to the Phantom Zone. Batman is still leery of what the League can do. "Taskforce X" is Waller's Suicide Squad. All the members except for Flag are criminals freed from death row. They are forced into five years of service wit
