In this episode, we dissect the morally grey universe of Zack Snyder's film adaptation, a narrative that challenges the traditional notions of heroism.

With a backdrop of Cold War paranoia, nuclear terror looms ever closer, testing the boundaries of morality and decision-making.

This is not just about the comic book façade, but a reflection on humanity's capacity for both destruction and redemption.
