Black Widow and The Suicide Squad finally end a long gap without any new superhero movie releases; it’s an interesting time to cast our minds back to the late 90s, where superhero cinema was on the ropes and looking like yesterday’s news.

Joining me to discuss this topic is David Molofsky, Editor-In-Cape of A Place To Hang Your Cape (www.ap2hyc.com), the premiere source of British indie comics news and reviews as well as plenty of superhero content. We sat down to discuss Steel, Spawn and Blade, a triptych of 90s superhero films that experimented with the established format and in some ways prefigured the challenges and successes the genre would face over the next 20 years.
