Ep.268 – Darkhawk No. 1 (1991)

Darkseid's Couch

This time on the Couch: Mike, James, and Shée swoop down and gracefully land on Darkhawk no. 1! Young Christopher Powell is a typical angsty 90s kid with a couple of dopey brothers and a set of parents who can't seem to figure out how to take an easy bribe. But when his family's overall schmuckiness lands him in a creepy abandoned carnival, he'll discover a mystical lava lamp that gives him the power to transform into the mighty avenger known as Darkhawk! Yes, he's still entirely forgettable, but when it comes to most of the flavorless gruel Marvel churned out in the early 90s, maybe you're actually hoping not to be remembered.
