S3 EP.20: It’s a work-wife thing – Reviewing relationships in comics

The guys (Kareem, Ken, and Pat) spend some time reviewing some of the most legendary relationships in comics. Tangents include using climate change to thwart protest, pro-choice vs. Fake news, the Inhumans practicing Mormonism, and more.

Show Notes

Relationships in comics are always hard, especially for superheroes. Complicated double lives and the responsibility of saving the world are often too much for most couples, but some get back together no matter what. Both DC and Marvel showcased some bad and good romantic couples, which became quite popular among the fans, and that prompted us to look into some of the best superhero couples that appeared in comic book media.

Of course, it’s hard to be fully objective with these lists, so bear with me and my explanations of each relationship. The list will strictly include couples that are both superheroes, but with one exception, which I will explain in more detail. If you’re interested, stay with us until the end. Also, this list isn’t ranked, and each entry could be placed anywhere.

The Giants are back, and this week, Kareem, Ken, and Pat have dragged their long‑suffering friend Tim into the studio for an episode that immediately veers off the rails and never once apologizes for it.First up: Greg Cipes. Yes, that Greg Cipes. The crew dives into the swirling storm of his latest controversy, unpacking the spectacle, the fandom reactions, and the eternal question: why do celebrity statements always feel like they were drafted during a juice cleanse.Then the conversation takes a hard left turn into the Ouroboros of Terminator robots, a philosophical deep dive into what happens when killer machines start time‑looping themselves into existential burnout. Is Skynet okay. Should someone check on it. Does a T‑800 dream of electric therapy bills.And because no episode is complete without roasting a beloved icon, the Giants revisit Superman’s rookie mistakes, the early days when the world’s greatest hero was still figuring out how not to yeet cars into orbit or accidentally demolish small businesses while stopping purse snatchers.If you enjoy pop‑culture chaos, sci‑fi spirals, and four grown adults trying to out‑tangent each other, this episode is your new comfort noise.#tangentialgiants #podcastchaos #GregCipes #popculturedebate #TerminatorLore #SciFiNerds #TimeLoopTalk #SkynetSpirals #SupermanFails #RookieSupes #NerdCulture #geektalkph #comedypodcast #popculturepodcast #KareemKenPatTim
