SPOILERS if you haven't seen this week's episode obviously

We start off the episode with this shot of Superman with the drawn on glasses. A good homage to what Lois did in the 1980 Superman II movie...

where she not only drew the glasses but also a full suit and hat on a picture of Superman.

Next we see Jimmy waking up and seeing someone debunking his conspiracy theories on Sub-Diego.

Sub Diego was an actual place in the DC universe before the New 52 reboot. In Aquaman #15 and #16 (2003) , shown here (W: Will Pfeifer, P: Patrick Gleason, I: Christian Alamy, C: Nathan Eyring, L: Jared K. Fletcher for issue 15, Nick Napolitano for issue 16). The underwater city is actually San Diego, but is buried underwater thanks to a tidal wave and makes its first appearance in Aquaman #15 (2003). There was a lot of casualties from this.

When we get to our title its "You Will Believe A Man Can Lie" a reference to the tagline for the 1978 Superman movie.

As seen here on the poster, it says "You'll believe a man can fly".

Next we see our villain, well one of the villains, for the episode, Heatwave.

In the comics Heatwave makes his first appearance in Flash 140 (1963) (cover art by Carmine Infantino, Murphy Anderson, and Ira Schnapp). Heatwave aka Mick Rory is a Flash rogue usually acting as a rival to Captain Cold aka Leonard Snart. In MAwS, their Heatwave shares the same last name and powers, but MAwS Heatwave is gender flipped. You might have seen Heatwave in the CW DC comics shows where he is played by Dominic Purcell in The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow.

Lois, later in the episode, name drops Heatwave's name. Gotta be honest when Heatwave showed up I was like is that Rampage? Cuz the MAwS design looks vaguely like Rampage.

If she does show up in MAwS, I'll talk more about her in another post, but for now, Rampage aka Karen Lou "Kitty" Faulkner, makes her first appearance in Superman #7 (1987) (full page here: W&P: John Byrne, I: Karl Kesel, C: Tom Ziuko, L: John Costanza).

Steve drags Jimmy to film his debunking Flamebird videos and references Starro who I talked about here.

Lois, later runs around with the Daily Planet police scanner trying to catch Superman and the dispatcher reports that a robbery is in progress at McGuinness Luxe Garage.

This is a nice reference to Ed McGuinness who was the artist for Superman, Action Comics, and Superman/Batman in the early 2000s. If you've seen Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, then you'll know the movie takes inspiration from his character designs in the first arc of the Superman/Batman comic series. The Superman/Batman #1 (2003) cover here is done by Ed McGuinness, Dexter Vines, and Dave Stewart. I like Ed McGuinness's pencils, very stylized.

Heatwave name drops Livewire and the Gazzo mod family. Both of whom I've talked about here and here respectively

Heatwave has been running away from Deathstroke here who has been taking our her crew. Notice that Slade Wilson doesn't have the half black half orange helmet yet that almost every Deathstroke depiction always has.

He, Amanda Waller, and the General who I totally think is General Sam Lane, Lois's dad, are fans of DBZ cuz of the scouters they're wearing.

Later in the scene we see the General again he's totally General Sam Lane. I'll talk more about him when we get a double confirmation through a name drop/reveal in a later post calling Amanda Waller, Mandy. What a fucking bold thing to say to Waller! Like damn! power move right there!

Superman and Deathstroke are fighting under a highway and we see the traffic is heading to Bludhaven!

Very good reference to my favorite character in all of pop culture, Dick Grayson aka Nightwing. Nightwing makes Bludhaven his city to protect. The city makes its first appearance in Nightwing #1 (1996) (the panel here - W: Chuck Dixon, P: Scott McDaniel, I: Karl Story, C: Roberta Tewes, L: John Costanza). Fun Bludhaven fact, its crime rate is WORST than Gotham! Also HIGHLY recommend reading the new Nightwing run cuz its fucking amazing! Won a few Eisner Awards (think the Oscars but for comic books) recently and I am not just saying that because I am a Dick Grayson fan.

Near the end of the episode, we see Lois willing to jump off a building to prove that Clark is Superman. A lot of discourse was happening online over this, but I do want to say this is pretty on brand for her to do.

In Superman II, Lois does something similar and Clark saves her. its just in MAwS, Clark flies to save her thus ruining the secret identity, while in Superman II, Clark does save her but he is still able to get away with it thanks to him playing it more subtly.

Don't know why people we're in such a fucking fit over something that Lois has done before.

In the after credits scene, Jimmy, who planned a sasquatch finding adventure with Lois and Clark, but they were dealing with their shit and Jimmy was by himself, decides to do the finding on his own and meets a giant gorilla. In the first episode Jimmy mentions an intelligent gorilla in France and my guess is this is Monsieur Mallah. You can read more about him here.

new orders

pairing: cassian andor x reader synopsis: you and cassian try something new! warnings: smut. minors dni. dom!reader (afab), sub!cassian, hair pulling, begging, dacryphilia, traffic light system, petnames (my love, sweetheart, baby) a/n: sorry this took so long! i got a job lol. y/n was on a mission and it was CARRIED OUT. i need to suck his dick sooooo bad</3

after returning from the store for some moski peppers, you find cassian in the kitchen. he's wearing a navy blue apron and that tight black shirt that hugs him just right. his hair's grown out a good bit, enough that he's tied some of it back into a little bun. it's the epitome of domesticity and the sight is making you go a little crazy. your nails dig into your palm, trying to ground yourself as you approach him.

"i'm back! got those peppers you wanted," you say, placing the bag on the counter next to him. he looks up from the chopping board and takes you in with a smile, like he always does.

"welcome back. thank you," he says, giving you a quick kiss. he takes a pepper back to the board and begins chopping it. "did you run into any trouble?"

"no, nothing thankfully," you sigh in relief. "but i do have a problem that needs working out..."

cassian doesn't look up from the chopping board as he responds. "mhmm?"

your teeth bite into your cheek for a moment before you position yourself behind him. planting a few slow kisses to his neck, he chuckles, leaning into you.

"ohhhh, i see. you want something," he remarks, smirking.

you hum thoughtfully, placing a few more kisses before responding.

"maybe. i have a proposal," you start. "you're captain, yes?"

"yeah, your point?" he asks.

"that means you're good at taking orders, right?" you say, hands wandering over his torso.

"i'd say so," he agrees. "what're you getting at?" he abandons the chopping and turns to face you.

"i was thinking we could try something... how about you obey my orders tonight?" you propose.

“oh yeah? and what would you do to me, hmm?” he challenges, chin tilting up in a cocky manner.

you rise to the question with ease, hand wrapping around his neck gently. his pulse quickens under your fingers.

“mmmm, whatever i want,” you purr.

cassian's pupils dilate for a fraction of a second and it boosts your ego enough to continue.

"it wouldn't be anything too crazy, unless you want it to be. it's something i've been thinking about for a while. but if you don't feel comfortable, i understand. just think about it may-"

he cuts you off before you can finish. "i want to. i want to try it," he murmurs. taking your hand, he kisses the inside of your palm gently. "please."

the desperateness in his tone almost makes you snap, but you compose yourself.

"are you sure? i don't want you to feel pressured, my love. i want us both to have fun," you say, searching his eyes. he takes a breath before responding.

"i trust you, y/n," he states firmly. "you know i do. and i know you wouldn't break that trust." he squeezes your hand as if to cement the fact you both know. he trusts you. your heart thumps harder at his honesty.

"ok. thank you. really," you say earnestly. giddiness and nerves fill you, but you push on. "you know the traffic light system? red for stop, yellow to slow down, green to keep going?"

he nods.

"great. ok. umm..." you trail off, hands fidgeting at your sides. "i told you i think about this a lot, but know that i'm about to do it, i'm a little nervous."

cassian smiles softly. "don't be. order away." it's that charm, that self-assuredness that makes you want to tear him apart. straightening your spine, you look at him fiercely.

"kiss me," you order him. for a moment, you wonder if this was a mistake, that he'll laugh. but cassian is all too keen to grab your waist and pull you into him, kissing you roughly. your hands find his hair and yank hard, earning a moan from him.

"did i say anything about touching?" you ask, eyes hard. your hands grip his locks and pull his head back. "i don't think i did."

despite the pain, cassian feels his dick twitch. his hands drop from your body in a flash.

"n-no, no you didn't. i'm sorry," he gasps. no movement to try and escape, you note. an evil grin creeps up your face.

"awww, you're sorry?" you coo in faux-concern. "i have a way you can make it up to me."

his eyes meet yours hopefully and you see tears welling up. it makes your cunt drool.

"those pretty tears won't make me stop, you know," you giggle, nipping his neck. a dazed look has painted over him. you lick his neck to snap him back to reality. "color?"

"green, green... maker, y/n," cass murmurs. the grip on his hair softens and you place a kiss to the corner of his lips. there’s a beat before you decide what you want to do next.

“bedroom, cmon,” you say, taking his hand in yours and walking over.

“i’m liking this new side,” cassian chuckles, following you eagerly to your shared sanctuary.

the two of you stand in the middle of the room, lights dimmed low. he looks at you for an order, but you don't give him one just yet. instead, you circle him slowly, taking him in.

the stubble dotting his face, his strong, commanding nose, there were a myriad of things about him you adored. and not only those things. you loved his attentiveness, his unwavering devotion to you and the rebellion, and that despite everything, he was hopeful. you couldn't ask for a better partner.

a slow, possessive hand trails down his clothed chest. cassian stiffens, wanting to touch you, to guide your hand where he really needs you. but he just opts to take a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves.

"take everything off and sit," you say, tugging at the hem of his shirt. cassian obeys, removing everything. slowly. the sight of his bare chest makes you want to swoon, the hair there arranged in a way that makes you want to bury your head in it. his cock is perfectly shaped, leaning a bit to the side with a soft plum coloring the tip. and the best part? he was leaking.

"giving me a show?" you smile, appreciating the view. the tips of his ears turn red, a slight blush dusts his cheeks. "don't be shy, baby. i like seeing what's mine."

at this, cassian whines. "what's yours, huh? fuck, y/n. you're good at this."

"glad you think so, sweetheart, but we've barely started," you smirk.

cassian sits on the edge of the bed. the next move you make surprises him. sinking to your knees, you make yourself comfortable between his legs, lips inches away from his cock.

"w-what are you doing?" he asks, fighting with myself not to buck towards you.

"what's it look like? m'gonna suck you off. duh," you say, rolling your eyes playfully. "and you're gonna sit there and take it, ok? no moving."

you lean down to lick up and down his shaft teasingly, and damn it, he can't help himself. cassian bucks towards you just a little and immediately regrets it. with a sigh, you pull back.

"wait, no, no-" he begins to protest. a pointed look from you stops him from going further.

playing pretend, you sigh in "disappointment". a few choice kisses inch further and further to his inner thighs, earning trembling breaths from cassian and a smile from you.

"shame, that was supposed to be easy. 'no moving', i thought, 'he should be able to do that, right?'" you tut. "but you just couldn't help yourself, could you?"

"how could i have kept still? your mouth just felt so good, i couldn't not move!" he grumbled.

"i know, baby, i know. but you wanna be good for me, right? make me proud? i'll reward you, promise," you wink up at him. he sighs, tilting his head back for a moment. your hand rests on his thigh gently.

"color?"

"green... damn it."

"that's what i thought."

with that, your lips greet him in one fell swoop, all the way to the base. the gasp that emits from cassian makes you giggle again, the vibrations fueling his pleasure. drool spills from your mouth as you take him in and out, in and out, in and- then you stop. take a moment to breathe. you take your time kissing his balls, seeing how they twitch with every act.

long lashed eyes flick up to look at him. his hair is a bit messy, knuckles white from gripping the sheets. the captain that you know and love is struggling to keep his composure all because of you. he's wrapped around your finger, mind, soul, and especially body.

the more and more you take him in your mouth, the more that famous composure of his breaks down. he's whining, moaning, groaning, all the prettiest noises you ever did hear escaped from his lips. you groan at the sight of him, making him twitch in your mouth.

"m'gonna cum! i wanna move so bad, shit-" he looks down at you teary eyed.

you just bat your lashes at him, continuing until he has no other choice but to unravel with a strangled cry. the taste of him is a little tangy, nothing unpleasant. it's no problem for you to swallow him down greedily and keep going.

"ungh! oh my god, wha- fffuuuckk!" cassian can't help but buck into you know, so with quick hands, you pin his hips down and abuse his sensitive head, swirling your tongue deliriously around him. and it's all just so much for him, the poor thing. he's whining, begging, crying for you to stop. but no colors are uttered, so you continue.

his mind is melting. the mixture of pleasure and pain is addictive and soon enough, he feels that coil in his stomach tighten up again. the whines and pleads grow louder and louder as he cums again. you keep licking his head and he decides he can’t take it anymore.

"yellow! please, please, hah-," he breathes out. you hum around him one more time before detaching yourself. a long, glinting trail of saliva connects the two you for a moment, a reminder of the sinful act just seconds before. you rest your head on cassian's thigh, looking up at him.

"thank you for honest, baby,” you coo. “didn’t think you’d enjoy it so much. you only said ‘yellow’ after you came.”

tears escape his avoidant eyes but he can’t help but look at you anyway. “and what about it?” he sniffles, a little embarrassed.

your eyes narrow. “don't be smart with me now, especially after you just cried like a slut."

he chuckles at that. "fine, fine. but wow, you really were thinking about this a lot, huh?" he teases.

and now it's your turn to blush. "i mean, yeah. s'not my fault you look so submissive and breedable," you confess.

"wait, what?!" he balks. you laugh, rising to kiss him slowly.

"we can try that next round," you suggest, tucking a strand of hair behind his ear. his eyes widen.

"next round?"

a gentle shove lays him flat on the bed. you look down at him, smirking.

"you thought i was done?"

“I had a sudden vision of what the three of us might look like to an outside observer: three young gentlemen of the same age, dressed in three iterations of current fashion, still bearing the influences of our respective universities. Tara, Stoneybridge, and Morrowlea: the Three Rivals among the Circle Schools, each of them considered the greatest university in the world, perhaps in all nine worlds.

Tara, the oldest, largest, and most famous, positioned both topographically and metaphysically on the horn of Orio Bay opposite the famous prison, the rich, corrupt, and historic capital of Orio City lying in the crescent between. Stoneybridge, caring more for excellence than reputation, one of a cluster of schools in and around the small Charese city of the same name, part of a network of scholarship and sports. And Morrowlea, by far the smallest, with the finest architecture, and from its isolated campus on a hill in the rich bucolic landscape of South Erlingale the heart of radical politics and social revolutions.”

so it looks like DC was not quite done with the Sub Diego idea and there still are some people in Sub Diego who didn't lose the ability to breathe water and still live under water. and there's still a government system and cal durham is mayor, or was mayor before black manta took over.

leading me to wonder...

why even do that thing with the people starting to lose their ability to breathe water in wwiii in the first place anyway?

Linking the Newsweek article because look at the language here. What is the most powerful word in the sub-headline? the word first.

The first U.S. bishop appointed by Pope Leo XIV has called for priests, deacons and parish leaders to join them in accompanying migrants to court.
