Welcome to HeroBlend #44!

First up, though, we've got to make sure everyone is up to date on all the latest superhero news, so we'll fill you in on topics such as which hero-based films came out on top at the Oscars, the superhero Sylvester Stallone is looking to play, the big things we might see in The Flash movie, some uplifting news related to Avengers: Endgame, a few of the highlights from Eric's chat with Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige, and much more!

Next up, DC Universe is now three episodes in on Doom Patrol, the nutty new show about a group of misfit superheroes, so Eric and Adrienne will talk about why they think you should check it out if you haven't already. We'll touch on the basics of the series, what we think of the look and wild tone, the characters and a lot more!

Last, but most certainly not least, we've got Eric's three-on-one interview with Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse directors Rodney Rothman, Bob Persichetti and Peter Ramsey, where he got to talk with them about the process of deciding what storylines to keep in the film, how animation compares to live-action in a world of very advanced special effects and a whole lot more! Now, sit back and relax, folks, because this is one chat you're not going to want to miss. Ready to dive in? Great! Listen for yourself above!
