The Weekly Podioplex: April 5, 2016

 

On an all-new edition of The Weekly Podioplex, Batman v Superman remained on top, but at a cost. This week's newcomers are small but innovative, and the question remains: How long can Justice reign? In addition, you can bring the Force home this week, as well as a touching farewell for a time-traveling companion. This and more on this week's edition of The Weekly Podioplex, brought to you on the Chronic Rift Network.
