Tomorrow's Legends

The Waverider has crossed us over into another universe where another world has its own superheroes and super villains. We are covering the Netflix series Jupiter's Legacy based on the Image Comics of the same name.

The first episode "By Dawn's Early Light" lays the groundwork for this universe. We have a group of heroes The Union of Justice or the Union for short, who seek to serve the world with morals and integrity. Their leader, The Utopian lays out their code. "Service, compassion, mercy, those are the words we live by. That is our Code, and it's the most important thing in the world." But that Code is hard to live by in a changing world.

The Utopian, know also as Sheldon, and his wife Grace, who's alter ego is Lady Liberty, have two kids. The Code and their parents' life as heroes have had dramatic and dividing impacts on them. Brandon, know as Paragon, wants to carry on the Union. He is not his father and even though everyone tells him he can't live up to that legacy, he tries. But even his father is unsure of him. Meanwhile his sister, Chloe, is rebelling against the code, her father and his morality. We have the original heroes who have served the world since the late 1930's and then the next generation who have inherited their powers. All are put to the test when the supervillain Blackstar breaks out of prison.

But that is only part of the story. We also get flashbacks to the 1929 era where we see our heroes before they gained their powers. It shows us the forces and morals that shape them for decades to come.

It was a bold first episode. It raises a lot of questions. It also seeks to examine many of the issues and questions about how superheroes would really work in the real world. Our podcast is ready to examine them all along with you our loyal community.

The Waverider has crossed us over to a new reality. One where the Tomorrow People, with telepathy, telekinesis, and teleportation abilities, are on the run from the government run ULTRA organization.

“Girl, Interrupted” is a parallel story. We have Cara’s heartbreaking past being told in a series of flashbacks. She was a deaf high school student being raised by a single father alongside her younger sister. One of her high school classmates attempts to sexually assault her. Her powers manifest and she telekinetically pushes him away twice, killing him in the process. Her breakout somehow heals her deafness. But she is in jail for the murder with no chance of getting out. She teleports out to her home. Her dad pushes her out and she telepathically hears him say they are better off without her. This leads to her mistrust of normal humans. She is scared and insulates herself with the Tomorrow People

Our other girl in this parallel story is Emily. She is a high school classmate of Stephen. She and Stephen have been on similar paths mentally. Her sister was killed in a car accident with a train and Emily feels responsible. Stephen is at a party with Astrid and he telepathically hears her thinking about suicide. He wants to intervene but both Cara and Jed advise him not to do it. In the end, Cara steps in and convinces her it is not her fault and to live.

Stephen sneaks in a data link that will connect ULTRA and TIM. But it is found, and Jed sends agents to trap the Tomorrow People. They capture Cara. Stephen tires to prove his loyalty to Jed by offering to take Cara’s powers. He is able to stop time and switch out the drugs and Cara fakes being neutralized. It seems to fool Jed and his assistant.

"Kill or Be Killed" gives us John's backstory. John was rescued from a bad foster care dad by Jed. We see him learn the skills and abilites that make him such a great fighter now. But we learn that Jed experimented on the Tomorrow People to give them the ability to kill by blocking parts of their brain through intense drug therapy. Killian was a success but went rogue and John had to track him down. Now Killian is back and hunting his former friend. John has to face him again and we learn that John has the ability to kill as well.

The Waverider has crossed us over to a new reality. One where the Tomorrow People, with telepathy, telekinesis, and teleportation abilities, are on the run from the government run ULTRA organization.

The Tomorrow People are tired of being cooped up in the abandoned subway station, so Cara proposes a night out. She finds a party they can attend and jaunts John for the right to take everyone out for the night. He's against it, but ends up coming along in the end.

Meanwhile, Stephen and Astrid are preparing for homecoming but Stephen is intercepted by Jed and is taken to meet the big boss at Ultra, who just happens to be another Tomorrow Person.

Jed picks up Stephen just before he leaves for homecoming with Astrid and takes him to a warehouse for a loyalty test. Unfortunately, this warehouse turns out to be the same party where John, Cara, and the rest of the Tomorrow People are. It turns out to be an Ultra ambush and chaos ensues.

In a surprising ending, Cara uses the stolen serum to strip Kurt's powers for setting them up and getting at least three of their people killed. Stephen comes clean to Astrid and shows her what he can do.

Hello Super Fam of Steel. Lots of tears here on the Waverider as we mourn Sam Lane. Join us as we discuss “Always My Hero.”

The Kent family privately mourns a funeral on the Kent farm, foreshadowing what's to come this episode. Later, Lois decides she needs to tell the world, Superman cannot save them anymore. With Lex and Doomsday still on the loose, Sam asks the Irons family to step up. Giving them brand new call signs, Steel and Starlight, the power duo suits up and are ready to help defend their new world.

Jon is frustrated with Jordan. All the complaining about his powers, not being able to stand up to Lex, and also blames him for their dad dying. In anger and frustration, he punches a barn beam breaking his hand. All of this emotion, trauma and stress awakens his powers in one of the greatest scenes of the show. He has all of his dad’s powers and is ready to train at the D.O.D. with Sam.

Lex has control of Doomsday. It seems like he cares for little else than revenge on the Kents and finding his daughter. He spreads division by playing Jordan against Lois when he plays the audio of her choosing Jon over him. He sends his inside man to Sam, but he will not give up Elizabeth’s location and Lieutenant Jonell Jones shoots him. The wound is mortal, and Doomsday is on the way. Sam takes the serum Bruno used to make Doomsday and sacrifices himself to Doomsday who crushes him in one hand while Lois and the boys watch.

Steel flies the body to the Fortress and explains to Lara that Sam’s heart can be a donor heart for Clark. She has reservations until John explains that Cal's blood was running through that heart, and she decides to try it anyway. The procedure seems to work ask Clark’s eyes open with a gasping breath.

The funeral continues from where we began the episode, as Lois says her goodbyes to Sam in a tearful moment.

Can the Irons, Jon & Jordan stop Lex and Doomdsday?
