This week Zach is joined by Jon Lee Brody and Geoff Johns himself to discuss the one hundred eighty sixth episode of Smallville, “Legends." They talk Geoff's history with Smallville and how he came to write for the series, how "Absolute Justice" laid the groundwork for the Arrowverse and in particular the recent Stargirl series, the importance of the time period the JSA is from, and Richard Donner's influence on Geoff's career both professionally and personally. I see your fate...to listen to the latest Always Hold On To Smallville!

Check out Jon on That Was Pretty Scary.

Check out Geoff and his latest work at Ghost Machine.
