Story x Story #122: The People’s Anti-Hero (Black Adam)

This week, Nigel and Tazziii welcome the Dynamic Duo of Greg Driver (Ace Comicals) and Annabel Anzy (Melanin Gamers) for a super powered deep dive into the latest DC film, Black Adam (from 28:39). We get stuck into this bombastic blockbuster to examine what worked and what didn't across the story's rollercoaster journey.

It's a comic book film over a decade in the making so we take time to debate narrative choices, which characters stand out and answer some listener questions too! This week's storytelling tip is all about developing the False-Ally Opponent character in your story.

Other stories we're enjoying: Gotham Knights, Born A Crime, Death of Superman, Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities, Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher, Spy x Family, That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime, Paddington, Return of Mary Poppins, Dragon Quest Heroes 2, Saga, Castlevania, Mr Robot
