Are we sure thatâs Bruce Wayne Batman & not really Jason Todd in a batsuit, like battle for the cowl? Hahaha, jk. Another great episode, canât wait for the final episode, Iâve enjoyed this series so much & I hope it gets a season 2! Also, where the hell is the joker at? He escaped Arkham & hasnât come for Batman yet?

By the way, whoâs to say that mrs tesmacher was actually a human & not some alien in this game with weird psychic powers? Like a Martian? Then Batman wouldnât have actually killed a person⌠even though in his younger days in the comics he did kill some criminalsâŚ

I enjoyed the episode. The Batman no kill thing is a valid point to an extent, but as others have pointed out while the current mantra is Batman doesnât kill, there are stories where he has. And this is this show and Xavier woods take on Batman, so I can go with it.
One thing I did notice⌠they all pointed out they donât know Carl was Superman they just saw a blur⌠and mentioned having to âsave Carlâ but then they never actually tried and apparently in their minds just left him there. I donât know if that was an error on the players part forgetting they were not supposed to know who Carl was or if they edited something out which I think happens a lot. I get not wanting to do an unedited session but if they do another season they need to work on that.
Also a big error I saw. At 21:53 Sam asked Dina what her (Wonder Womanâs) strength was. They then showed Batmanâs card. And she said her strength was a 7, then highlighted the DEXTERITY on BATMANâS card (which at least was a 7. lol).
I mean not trying to make a huge deal, mistakes happen. But I got to say I was surprised no one caught that one.
But other then those nitpicks it was a fun episode and is cool everyone finally is in their superhero forms. And the Lex Luthor reveal and the Dean not being the villain were some nice twist.

Clare looks like she could be a live action catwoman to me. I think itâs her eyes and high cheek bones and straight face that she has. Like you canât read her. That was the first character I got right. Wonder Woman was the other. When they said a âred blurâ I honestly thought of flash before Superman. And couldnât even figure out Batman. Anyways. I didnât know if I would like this show, but I absolutely love it!

Thank you!!! @AlexanderKnox @jonleebrody for spittin facts

I honestly love DC Universe All-Star Games and the character match ups that have been chosen for each person, I personally feel that everyoneâs personality fits their character.
for season 2!!!

I really enjoy this series and hope it continues!
I didnât care for Xavierâs attitude of âI MUST KILLLLL!â I know, I know⌠Batman has intentionally killed before in the past. Itâs just that whole moment was offputting imo.
Aside from that one little sour moment, I really do love this series and the cast. If the series gets greenlit for more seasons (fingers crossed!!), Iâd like to see less cuts in the editing. As someone else pointed out earlier, we never saw Carl reveal to the crew he was Superman (I thought he was gonna be Flash tbh), nor the crew saving Carl in this episode. Yet they all piled in Tommyâs car and went to Old Arkham together. This is the type of show Iâd like to see MUCH longer. At least double in length.
Anyways, thatâs my two cents.

Never been that into role playing games but actually really love this cast and have enjoyed this so far! The 80s setting gives a really fun twist! I was able to guess Catwoman and Wonder Woman but the others really surprised me, especially the janitor /the question/lex! And man that cliff hanger XD

I just watched the 5 episodes today while painting minis. It was really nice seeing the Knight Models Arkham Asylum and several of the figures that I have painted and play with regularly.

You knowâŚwith a bit more effort, and money tossed into thisâŚthis could easily be this platforms version of Critical Role. Just look at the community they have built, the support they have gotten, especially with their kickstarterâŚjust saying! I think this is something to consider, this could be HUGE.
Great episode!! I didnât suspect Carl of being Superman, but I can totally see it now. No one would suspect Carl for being Superman. I know the game itself takes place in the 1980âs, but the asthma totally reminded me of the asthma of Supermanâs son in Superman Returns. Love the reveal of Lex Luthor, Ms. T, and Clayface. Man, I loved Sam and Freddieâs reaction to Batman killing. I was having the same reaction while watching it.
I really enjoyed this show. Iâm glad we are getting a bonus episode out of it.

Iâm always amazed at the imagination that the team has, especially Xavier Woods. He loves German Suplexing people lol.
Sam is a great host and somehow made the game pretty easy to follow and understand. Iâve never seen or played a game like that so seeing him work the story was impressive.

Another awesome episode.
The story continues and what a great twist. Lick is Lex. Alshleyâs MRS. TESSMACHER (had to say it like that) Brooke is Clayface. All my guess were right at least by episode 3. Freedies and Xaviers Supes and Bats friendship is amazing and hilarious. The weâre friends letâs muster scene killed me. Another awesome episode.
Also forgot to mention. I know bats donât normally kill. But I donât care. This is Xaviers creativity brutal Batman and it great. Enjoy the creative and freedom of the game. Canât wait for the secret bonus episode.
I had no idea what to expect from this show, but itâs been such a lovely surprise. 
Quick question though, why is episode 6 labeled as a âBonus Episodeâ? Was the original plan only to have five eps, but then maybe during the editing phase they realized that episode five was going too long, and decided to cut it into a sixth episode or something? Just curious!
Maybe @jonleebrody can give us some insight into the behind-the-scenes of that?

As to my actual reply.
I loved this episode. I did think Xavierâs actions were far too gritty and 90s for the setting, but I understand them as well as any Batman fan would. It is a temptation to take a dangerous lunatic off the board permanently before they can cause yet more damage. I think maybe his intense explanation directly at the camera might also have been a little much, but you can clearly see his WWE training in that. Mug for the camera. Itâs what you do and we love you for it Xavier.
Storywise I was expecting Superman. I was expecting Clayface. I was not expecting Luthor or Miss Tessmacher. The curves weâve been getting tossed at us are impressive, leaving us fans and viewers to offer up so many potential theories that just on those alone, DC has the potential for at least three more of these shows.
I canât wait to find out how that roll turns out. Second set of non-snake eyes doubles, and the best roll so far this game. Itâs going to be impressive. Hopefully the next episode will wrap up what the whole Lex-Plan was.
Iâm not sure I would ever describe The Questionâs outfit as a âzoot suitâ even back in his Charlton days, though this isnât even Vic Sage (I wonder if the real Question will show up in episode 6?). In what thrift store did Lex even find such an ensemble?
I like the hint that there could be consequences for Batman using lethal force since part of his character is his code against killing; though that seems like an empty threat if thereâs no long-term campaign.
