In this episode of Nerdrotic’s Nerdsplaining Podcast, Gary (@nerdrotics) and Jon (@jonreed16) get into the geek weeds and explore the alternative universe where Game of Thrones characters are your favorite superheroes. Is Arya Stark more of an X-23 or a Raven from Teen Titans? Is Tyrion Lannister Tony Stark or Puck? If you have ever wondered what GoT would be like with superpowers, this episode is for you.
