00:22.602 --> 00:23.863
[SPEAKER_02]: How about everyone's fighting?

00:24.103 --> 00:32.813
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody is DC fighting in DC, KO, number four from DC, comics written by Scott Snyder and Joshua Williamson, art by Havier Fernandez and Cermanico.

00:33.434 --> 00:36.838
[SPEAKER_01]: Spoiler warning for this whole stack, everything that we're going to be talking about.

00:37.291 --> 00:53.815
[SPEAKER_01]: but we're going to get into it as big stuff goes down in this issue of DCKO as the remaining heroes and villains who to run through it are superman wonder woman joker and Lex Luther face down the all absolute university

00:53.795 --> 00:59.925
[SPEAKER_01]: That's just the beginning of the twists and turns that happen in this issue as Joker changes science.

01:00.506 --> 01:06.136
[SPEAKER_01]: Batman returns and then we get a King Omega by the end here, but wait, that's not all.

01:06.176 --> 01:09.381
[SPEAKER_01]: There's more to come at the end at an entire other issue.

01:09.842 --> 01:12.526
[SPEAKER_01]: Justin, do you seem like you're running to say something here?

01:12.787 --> 01:14.650
[SPEAKER_02]: I saw anything to say first off.

01:14.870 --> 01:16.292
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I feel like you need to go first.

01:16.332 --> 01:19.077
[SPEAKER_00]: This was on my fucking list, bro, that's bullshit.

01:19.715 --> 01:21.458
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, anybody can put a list to it.

01:21.478 --> 01:22.239
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.

01:22.359 --> 01:22.699
[SPEAKER_01]: Here's a call.

01:22.980 --> 01:25.243
[SPEAKER_01]: I like to say, I'm going to spell something about this podcast.

01:25.343 --> 01:27.567
[SPEAKER_01]: All three of us get to talk.

01:27.807 --> 01:29.129
[UNKNOWN]: All right.

01:29.850 --> 01:31.312
[SPEAKER_02]: What have we changed in only two?

01:32.494 --> 01:33.335
[SPEAKER_01]: With that?

01:33.355 --> 01:34.777
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, sorry, dynamic.

01:35.178 --> 01:37.301
[SPEAKER_01]: Two of us already talked about this book, so.

01:37.461 --> 01:38.223
[SPEAKER_01]: The third cannot.

01:38.243 --> 01:38.663
[SPEAKER_02]: You're cut.

01:38.823 --> 01:39.364
[SPEAKER_02]: You're cut.

01:39.705 --> 01:40.225
[SPEAKER_02]: Who would win?

01:40.266 --> 01:40.846
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll never know.

01:41.888 --> 01:42.950
[SPEAKER_02]: Pete, you know what?

01:43.030 --> 01:46.435
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to take a KO here and let you talk about this.

01:46.555 --> 01:47.857
[SPEAKER_02]: No, no, no, no, no, no, please, please.

01:47.877 --> 01:48.658
[SPEAKER_02]: You started.

01:49.600 --> 01:50.281
[SPEAKER_02]: Really good.

01:50.321 --> 01:51.822
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm glad we spent that moment.

01:51.842 --> 01:56.888
[SPEAKER_02]: The moment we will never get back and neither were the listeners The thing about this.

01:56.968 --> 02:01.393
[SPEAKER_02]: I have so many things to say because number one reading this issue I was like God.

02:01.693 --> 02:09.522
[SPEAKER_02]: Why did I ever fill out our dumb bracket the way that I did because I was like of course The way is going that so I was like this.

02:09.662 --> 02:13.707
[SPEAKER_02]: I felt there are two three months ago Me felt very stupid.

02:13.727 --> 02:18.392
[SPEAKER_02]: Secondly, I'm like, do I like the absolute Trinity more than I like the main Trinity?

02:19.368 --> 02:23.696
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, do I is that mean now because I'll tell you what when they were evil on this.

02:23.776 --> 02:38.642
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, hey, no, no No, no, yeah, and then when they came back I was like, yes, those are the ones I like And I was like what a litmus test for me is a reader that I I might like these absolute characters

02:38.757 --> 02:39.117
[SPEAKER_00]: more.

02:39.257 --> 02:39.558
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

02:40.198 --> 02:40.839
[SPEAKER_00]: No question.

02:42.320 --> 02:43.341
[SPEAKER_00]: I now over to you.

02:43.541 --> 02:43.821
[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks.

02:44.001 --> 02:44.922
[SPEAKER_00]: I lost my shit.

02:45.303 --> 02:47.464
[SPEAKER_00]: I had a real old shit moment during this.

02:47.905 --> 02:51.248
[SPEAKER_00]: When Batman showed up and then did that bang.

02:51.608 --> 02:52.869
[SPEAKER_00]: I fell out.

02:52.949 --> 02:54.130
[SPEAKER_00]: That was so cool.

02:54.150 --> 02:57.093
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, oh my God, that is awesome.

02:57.953 --> 02:59.354
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I jumped up out of my seat.

02:59.414 --> 03:01.096
[SPEAKER_00]: It was such a bad ass moment.

03:01.756 --> 03:04.519
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I just love the swings that are happening.

03:04.559 --> 03:08.342
[SPEAKER_00]: The

03:08.322 --> 03:10.409
[SPEAKER_00]: The Batman fight was so awesome.

03:10.429 --> 03:13.098
[SPEAKER_02]: How do you like the phrase I don't cheat on Batman?

03:14.182 --> 03:15.467
[SPEAKER_02]: Hi, you know, I'm fine with that.

03:15.487 --> 03:17.333
[SPEAKER_02]: Can we say that in casual conversation?

03:17.353 --> 03:17.955
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it work?

03:17.975 --> 03:18.838
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah.

03:19.392 --> 03:22.277
[SPEAKER_01]: Here's my, here's my one big criticism of the issue.

03:22.518 --> 03:25.343
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to know that man versus absolute bad man.

03:25.443 --> 03:28.910
[SPEAKER_01]: Because he's tighty little bad man face off again.

03:28.930 --> 03:30.192
[SPEAKER_01]: It's hooking beast bad man.

03:30.232 --> 03:31.194
[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, let's go.

03:31.234 --> 03:33.358
[SPEAKER_01]: And then it was only one or two paddles.

03:33.498 --> 03:35.141
[SPEAKER_01]: And that was a little bit of a bummer.

03:35.221 --> 03:37.926
[SPEAKER_01]: But otherwise the fights were very fun.

03:37.986 --> 03:40.050
[SPEAKER_01]: They were very big.

03:40.030 --> 03:49.532
[SPEAKER_01]: What I am appreciating about this book is it keeps pulling the rug out on over and over and over again We're like this is what's gonna happen.

03:49.552 --> 03:50.033
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like now.

03:50.053 --> 03:52.859
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not that you're like no, okay This is what's gonna happen.

03:52.879 --> 03:53.340
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like now.

03:53.360 --> 03:57.229
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not so I'll show that'll be fine standing on this rug

03:59.335 --> 04:12.487
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm very curious at this point to see how we end up in the final issue and whether this feels like a cohesive complete story because there have been so many rung poles throughout the four issues so far.

04:12.927 --> 04:15.709
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the place we end up in is interesting.

04:15.769 --> 04:19.733
[SPEAKER_01]: Talk about like the ending a little bit because this is another thing that comes in.

04:19.813 --> 04:27.840
[SPEAKER_01]: Interesting choice that I don't know that we necessarily needed, but maybe we did need for the next issue

04:28.360 --> 04:49.761
[SPEAKER_01]: After we have a crown king omega and a set up for a big fight for the next issue, we flash back in time and find out how dark side corrupted booster gold and how dark side took the absolute

04:49.960 --> 05:10.230
[SPEAKER_02]: about circumstances that takes up a bunch of the page count to the end I agree with that I found that the back that bit to be like sort of like well we must tell this part of the story and it's sort of like dark side being like you know what I want to do kick everybody's ass and I was like yeah I know I don't know what I'm doing for a million bro I don't know what

05:10.210 --> 05:26.873
[SPEAKER_02]: The only part that may be interesting is the Saturn girl for the sort of corrupted Legion Saturn girl of it and so like And I do like the the evil Legion aspect of the story and maybe that will come back eventually So like I just was I agree with you.

05:26.893 --> 05:28.776
[SPEAKER_02]: I was surprised about that back bit

05:28.756 --> 05:31.601
[SPEAKER_02]: Lex loose the third being the power player here.

05:31.621 --> 05:41.560
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like that's cool, but also we have truly the original Trinity in both main continuity and absolute just being like, what's up?

05:41.580 --> 05:42.963
[SPEAKER_02]: Right off camera.

05:43.965 --> 05:45.668
[SPEAKER_01]: So like, that's all killed.

05:45.648 --> 06:07.572
[SPEAKER_01]: everybody else is done except for Lex Luther versus dark side at the end there, but yes, I know that's the real thing that happened and that's the end of that's the end of that's yeah, that's the end of that's all we're here all throughout a theory because the other thing and this is a personal thing I don't have a problem about how they had this story wise, but the last panel of the issue is Saturn girl being like

06:07.552 --> 06:10.736
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, and I saw at the past Presented Future, it's all dark side.

06:10.756 --> 06:11.336
[SPEAKER_01]: It's all done.

06:11.356 --> 06:14.921
[SPEAKER_01]: He has one except for one little light there.

06:15.481 --> 06:20.907
[SPEAKER_01]: Skinny doomsday for the future of the time, trapped in with his little chains that fly around it.

06:20.928 --> 06:22.429
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, oh, I don't like that guy.

06:22.449 --> 06:23.591
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's a great day.

06:23.671 --> 06:24.652
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I like it.

06:24.772 --> 06:25.713
[SPEAKER_02]: I like the move.

06:25.873 --> 06:29.998
[SPEAKER_02]: I did think the pose is very funny of like skinny doomsday being like me.

06:29.978 --> 06:37.129
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, what is this little peek of a, but so that I'm on board for that.

06:37.229 --> 06:47.025
[SPEAKER_02]: But all I am, all I do want to say is absolute Wonder Woman, regular Batman, absolute Superman, absolute Batman, Superman, regular Wonder Woman.

06:47.005 --> 07:11.443
[SPEAKER_00]: well interesting ranking there uh i want to get back to talking about the batman fight because it was so good i even love the power was like you like the new bat symbol and he was like it's growing on me i was like god damn it this is just such a blast i don't want to leave again i agree with you it's just i wanted bored i think it's like a sign of a good like these are little tastes of these things but uh

07:11.423 --> 07:14.069
[SPEAKER_01]: We know this is the second act of a three-part story.

07:14.169 --> 07:15.231
[SPEAKER_01]: There is more to come.

07:15.251 --> 07:17.395
[SPEAKER_01]: There's going to be more to come.

07:17.897 --> 07:22.386
[SPEAKER_01]: Well hold on, but it felt like this is like, ooh, here it comes.

07:22.526 --> 07:26.434
[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely universe versus the DC universe, but I felt the holding back a little bit.

07:26.454 --> 07:32.487
[SPEAKER_01]: I think like this is they have a bunch of cool things in a notebook, because they're going to do it about a year from now.

07:32.737 --> 07:33.558
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's so fun.

07:33.578 --> 07:35.821
[SPEAKER_02]: And you're like, yeah, I don't know if the story's going to come together.

07:35.841 --> 07:40.486
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm like, this part of the story was everybody fucking fights.

07:40.506 --> 07:40.607
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

07:40.627 --> 07:41.408
[SPEAKER_01]: Like what I was saying?

07:41.428 --> 07:41.948
[SPEAKER_02]: They did that.

07:42.108 --> 07:43.010
[SPEAKER_02]: Alex, they did it.

07:43.290 --> 07:47.135
[SPEAKER_01]: What I'm saying is there is more to it and more cool, moving moments.

07:47.195 --> 07:47.655
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure.

07:47.815 --> 07:50.839
[SPEAKER_01]: But they're going to do a more full throttle thing down the road.

07:51.180 --> 07:54.423
[SPEAKER_01]: The other thing that I wanted to throw out there about the time trapper thing that I wanted to mention.

07:54.443 --> 07:56.045
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a pure theory for the last issue.

07:56.546 --> 07:59.790
[SPEAKER_01]: But I think what they're saving there is either

08:00.614 --> 08:09.609
[SPEAKER_01]: Doomsday comes back to being doomsday, and it's a doomsday versus dark side, or doomsday dark side, Abbott-Lex Luther all taking each other on.

08:10.029 --> 08:16.480
[SPEAKER_01]: Whatever it is, you get all of Superbads, biggest baddies of all time in one place, and I do think that's gonna be a lot of fun.

08:16.831 --> 08:17.973
[SPEAKER_00]: Also speaking of fun.

08:18.033 --> 08:20.839
[SPEAKER_00]: It was cool how they brought the brackets back.

08:20.899 --> 08:22.301
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought that was a fun panel.

08:22.321 --> 08:27.170
[SPEAKER_01]: So speaking of which we got to bring our brackets back and see how we're doing.

08:27.211 --> 08:29.695
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's see how close we're coming so far.

08:29.795 --> 08:34.384
[SPEAKER_01]: You guys want to get a look at three losers.

08:34.364 --> 08:35.687
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, here we go.

08:35.988 --> 08:40.157
[SPEAKER_01]: I am going to bring this up, okay.

08:40.177 --> 08:41.159
[SPEAKER_01]: So what do we got here?

08:41.179 --> 08:45.870
[SPEAKER_01]: I think this this is Pete's bracket going on to the final four.

08:45.930 --> 08:53.487
[SPEAKER_01]: You had Superman Supergirl Wonder Woman and David Wayne's Superman and your final two is Superman and Wonder Woman.

08:53.467 --> 08:58.474
[SPEAKER_01]: And we actually have Lex Luther vs. Darkside so I'm sorry you're done.

08:59.355 --> 09:01.538
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no one, what do we do?

09:01.558 --> 09:02.520
[SPEAKER_02]: What does he say?

09:02.540 --> 09:07.266
[SPEAKER_02]: What are we going to see in this?

09:07.727 --> 09:08.127
[SPEAKER_01]: All right.

09:08.187 --> 09:08.628
[SPEAKER_01]: Here we go.

09:08.668 --> 09:10.330
[SPEAKER_01]: I believe this was...

09:10.350 --> 09:12.013
[SPEAKER_01]: This is mine.

09:12.033 --> 09:12.994
[SPEAKER_01]: This is yours.

09:12.974 --> 09:17.060
[SPEAKER_01]: Your final four was Captain Adam, Supergirls, Wonder Woman, and Red Hood.

09:17.501 --> 09:19.944
[SPEAKER_01]: And you have the final two big Supergirl and Wonder Woman.

09:20.405 --> 09:22.588
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, it's Lex Luther and Darkside.

09:22.648 --> 09:24.251
[SPEAKER_01]: I really think you should figure that out.

09:24.691 --> 09:25.312
[SPEAKER_01]: You bet.

09:25.332 --> 09:28.417
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's see, let's see how close I got to the end here.

09:28.737 --> 09:34.886
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so I had Superman Black Lightning, Wonder Woman, and Batman, and my final two was Superman and Wonder Woman.

09:36.168 --> 09:39.353
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't come close at all either, I guess.

09:39.552 --> 09:39.912
[SPEAKER_02]: Wow.

09:41.474 --> 09:47.161
[SPEAKER_02]: How did we lose this fictionalized story, gambling competition?

09:48.122 --> 09:58.775
[SPEAKER_02]: I would throw out one more thing, though, I was thinking of that they were going to highlight some non-trendity characters here, and that was wrong, and that turned out to be wrong.

09:58.975 --> 10:05.863
[SPEAKER_02]: Because I feel like the post-Ko is about highlighting non-trendity characters, and I

10:05.843 --> 10:06.645
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see.

10:06.665 --> 10:07.346
[SPEAKER_02]: It's incorrect.

10:07.506 --> 10:07.987
[SPEAKER_02]: No, it is.

10:08.007 --> 10:08.548
[SPEAKER_02]: That is.

10:08.789 --> 10:09.209
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see.

10:09.270 --> 10:09.991
[SPEAKER_02]: They've announced it.

10:10.312 --> 10:10.532
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

10:10.813 --> 10:11.253
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll see.

10:11.674 --> 10:11.995
[SPEAKER_01]: All right.

10:12.055 --> 10:14.239
[SPEAKER_01]: Why don't we move to a big ending.

10:14.279 --> 10:18.748
[SPEAKER_01]: Ultimate X-Men number 24 from Marvel by Peach Memorial in this final issue.

10:19.389 --> 10:21.353
[SPEAKER_01]: Boy, there's a lot of stuff going on.

10:22.234 --> 10:23.076
[SPEAKER_01]: As...

10:23.545 --> 10:26.852
[SPEAKER_01]: everybody searches for armor, who has disappeared.

10:27.573 --> 10:40.941
[SPEAKER_01]: They tracked down a new mutant too is giving people a trigger mortgager suicide pills so that they can kill die by suicide if they don't like being a mutant dead anymore.

10:42.384 --> 10:43.326
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah!

10:44.487 --> 10:45.328
[SPEAKER_01]: There you go.

10:46.048 --> 10:52.374
[SPEAKER_02]: Wait so in the as we set in the the previous comic whoever highlighted this in the live show talks about it.

10:52.394 --> 10:55.317
[SPEAKER_02]: So Alex, you just describe this issue.

10:56.117 --> 10:57.479
[SPEAKER_02]: Give us the sure.

10:57.519 --> 10:58.119
[SPEAKER_02]: Here's the thing.

10:58.400 --> 11:05.126
[SPEAKER_01]: I do want to like just to talk about what has been happening all along with ultimate X men.

11:05.186 --> 11:08.569
[SPEAKER_01]: I think we have all agreed that we love pizza bokeh's art.

11:08.989 --> 11:14.494
[SPEAKER_01]: Occasionally appreciated the story but mostly been very confused by it.

11:14.474 --> 11:35.453
[SPEAKER_01]: No way in the world this was supposed to be the final issue of ultimate expert There is like no planet where that actually was the plan here with the story because there's so much new stuff Introduced in this issue so much new stuff so much about these suicide pills which I didn't love to be honest with you Like I found that

11:35.433 --> 11:36.855
[SPEAKER_01]: very uncomfortable.

11:36.895 --> 11:47.353
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's a way of dealing with that, particularly because the thing that I think a lot of Lee Peach Moko has brought into Ultimate Expand is bringing it back to like teen rebellion on outside of nature.

11:47.393 --> 11:47.854
[SPEAKER_01]: That's great.

11:48.255 --> 11:49.216
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's something to deal with.

11:49.256 --> 11:54.646
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's not the sort of thing that you can throw into the last issue and not resolve in any way.

11:55.167 --> 11:57.090
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know what's going on there.

11:57.190 --> 11:58.993
[SPEAKER_01]: But still looks good.

12:00.172 --> 12:03.095
[SPEAKER_02]: I agree it does look good, but yes, I found this.

12:03.335 --> 12:07.118
[SPEAKER_02]: I was just shocked by what was laid out here.

12:07.178 --> 12:14.265
[SPEAKER_02]: Definitely not connected at all to the ultimate, the other stuff going on in the ultimate universe at all.

12:15.066 --> 12:19.830
[SPEAKER_02]: Which I thought it was going to go that way given some of the stuff that happened in the previous issue.

12:20.871 --> 12:26.296
[SPEAKER_02]: And I like the idea that they were going after armor, like there's some stuff here, but it ends so abruptly.

12:26.436 --> 12:28.778
[SPEAKER_02]: And I don't know, it's just a tough read.

12:29.062 --> 12:32.347
[SPEAKER_00]: I, uh, it's worth it for the art alone.

12:32.427 --> 12:36.674
[SPEAKER_00]: I just peach from Oco's art, even though it's fucked up shit going on here.

12:36.714 --> 12:38.918
[SPEAKER_00]: It's still just so beautiful.

12:38.938 --> 12:43.104
[SPEAKER_00]: The facial expressions, the way they're communicating.

12:43.224 --> 12:44.606
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not a lot of talking.

12:44.687 --> 12:46.670
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just really leading with the art.

12:47.371 --> 12:55.744
[SPEAKER_00]: So I agree with what has been said, but I'm still just having such a great time looking and it's so it's hard to, uh,

12:56.483 --> 12:59.529
[SPEAKER_00]: not enjoy it because it's just so goddamn beautiful.

12:59.549 --> 13:13.075
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I mean, to talk about the greater thing here and we're not done with absolutely everything at this point, but it makes me really worried, it general about the ultimate universe and it's legacy right now because

13:13.055 --> 13:15.818
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm never big on like the endings or the only thing, right?

13:16.079 --> 13:21.765
[SPEAKER_01]: But Ultimate Black Panther ended fine, but it away where we talked about it exactly the same way.

13:21.786 --> 13:23.267
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, this is not a last issue.

13:23.307 --> 13:24.529
[SPEAKER_01]: There's plenty more to tell.

13:24.569 --> 13:27.973
[SPEAKER_01]: They're just sort of like finishing it here and then going on.

13:28.173 --> 13:31.918
[SPEAKER_01]: Same thing with Ultimate X, but it's introducing new things that like not really finishing.

13:31.958 --> 13:38.606
[SPEAKER_01]: If we people see mixed about Ultimate Ed game right now, so like, I don't know.

13:38.626 --> 13:42.150
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll see what happens with Ultimate Spiderman and Ultimate Wolverine.

13:42.130 --> 13:44.595
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and is there another one that I'm forgetting?

13:46.199 --> 13:48.284
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I think that's it, except for when the ultimates.

13:48.645 --> 13:50.408
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, the ultimates, that is the other one I'm forgetting.

13:50.469 --> 13:52.754
[SPEAKER_01]: So like, we'll see what happens with those.

13:52.814 --> 13:55.700
[SPEAKER_01]: Hopefully we could have more good at the edge here.

13:56.342 --> 13:58.306
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they're much closer to the main storyline.

13:58.446 --> 13:59.268
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

13:59.288 --> 13:59.829
[SPEAKER_02]: Those titles.

13:59.930 --> 14:01.894
[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll see though.

14:02.448 --> 14:05.173
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm concerned is, I guess, when I throw out there.

14:05.393 --> 14:06.656
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, but we'll see.

14:07.157 --> 14:18.077
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, Transformers number 29 from Skybound and Image Convictory by Robert Kirkman, art by Kirkman Mora in this issue, something that I don't think has ever happened to the history of Transformers before.

14:18.057 --> 14:27.012
[SPEAKER_01]: Activist private mega-tron fight, which is crazy because mostly like they've been friends They've hunked out They love each other.

14:27.032 --> 14:27.893
[SPEAKER_02]: What's their opinion?

14:27.953 --> 14:30.598
[SPEAKER_02]: Can you walk us through their beef because I'm like guys?

14:30.678 --> 14:31.760
[SPEAKER_00]: When did that start?

14:31.940 --> 14:32.501
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god.

14:32.541 --> 14:34.023
[SPEAKER_00]: It started so many years ago.

14:34.104 --> 14:36.167
[SPEAKER_00]: Is it a soft hat cool cover is it?

14:36.772 --> 14:56.687
[SPEAKER_00]: yeah this is a fun cover uh it's uh by the way for anybody listening on the audio podcast it's a cover of Optimus Prime fighting package right that's right yeah uh something i love to see uh i i had a real i was having such a great time with this comic until the very end the last panel

14:56.667 --> 15:02.574
[SPEAKER_00]: really kind of was such a sour note that I kind of was upset.

15:02.715 --> 15:03.836
[SPEAKER_00]: I was a little disappointed.

15:03.916 --> 15:10.084
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, Autobots are maybe about to finally win for the, you know, which is huge.

15:10.104 --> 15:12.467
[SPEAKER_00]: And then all of a sudden, like, you know, this lady shows up and they're like, hey, stop fighting.

15:12.487 --> 15:20.717
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's like, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

15:21.305 --> 15:21.786
[SPEAKER_00]: What?

15:22.366 --> 15:24.730
[SPEAKER_00]: You can't just, we're in the middle of something here.

15:24.790 --> 15:36.466
[SPEAKER_00]: It was, uh, I was really just an upsetting, last panel, sour note to end on and I was, uh, I was scratching my head and couldn't believe, uh, what was happening.

15:36.626 --> 15:44.036
[SPEAKER_01]: It's weird to me that you're using sour note as a negative, because if a herbo made like little sour notes, you would eat those.

15:44.076 --> 15:44.337
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

15:44.497 --> 15:45.338
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, you would eat those, not.

15:45.618 --> 15:46.259
[SPEAKER_01]: You'd be like, Sure.

15:46.359 --> 15:46.479
[SPEAKER_00]: Great.

15:46.560 --> 15:48.342
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I mean, you had me an herbo.

15:48.727 --> 15:53.154
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, we could throw together almost any two words and say Haribo made him and Pete would eat it.

15:53.595 --> 15:53.695
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

15:54.356 --> 15:54.877
[SPEAKER_02]: So, like.

15:55.638 --> 15:56.139
[SPEAKER_01]: It's very good.

15:56.159 --> 15:56.800
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a very good shit.

15:56.880 --> 15:59.124
[SPEAKER_01]: Haribo, a raccoon shit.

15:59.144 --> 15:59.704
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, man.

15:59.724 --> 16:01.527
[SPEAKER_02]: Yo, you think it's a joke?

16:01.547 --> 16:03.290
[SPEAKER_02]: Pete would eat that if that was in a fun box.

16:03.811 --> 16:04.472
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.

16:04.532 --> 16:06.856
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not as it's really gummy and uh...

16:06.876 --> 16:10.221
[SPEAKER_02]: If it was one of the characters in a fun dip, he'd eat that.

16:10.381 --> 16:11.683
[SPEAKER_02]: He'd eat that raccoon shit.

16:11.704 --> 16:14.548
[SPEAKER_02]: He'd take his little wand and be like, guys, you gotta try his raccoon.

16:14.528 --> 16:15.890
[SPEAKER_01]: It all serious this.

16:16.030 --> 16:33.439
[SPEAKER_01]: I do enjoy myself and Optimus Prime Megatron fight, but this issue was a little too Robot-faced for me by which I mean Ever once in a while this book becomes like let's just do panels that are just close-ups of all these robots faces Is they screaming each other and I'm like can we pull back?

16:33.479 --> 16:37.465
[SPEAKER_01]: Can we see some of the action a little bit because I don't know who is who I'm sorry?

16:37.445 --> 17:00.415
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean and like to going off of that like I did at the art in this issue like I agree with you but there's there are some great panels in here but I'm like can we just let these guys not fight for a second so some other stuff can happen coming across the end of the Danny Warren Johnson story and this I'm like let him chill a little bit let him have a home life

17:00.395 --> 17:15.906
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, because all the stuff we have miles made him setting up mask has been fun, like it's an interesting counterpoint to everything that's going on when all of the stuff with the Transformers is, we haven't seen it before.

17:15.886 --> 17:24.395
[SPEAKER_00]: the whole kind of take on star scream in the betrayal and that kind of stuff and then sound wave coming back and like sacrificing himself.

17:24.695 --> 17:25.456
[SPEAKER_00]: It was all great.

17:25.536 --> 17:27.518
[SPEAKER_00]: This battle was awesome.

17:27.658 --> 17:29.540
[SPEAKER_00]: It was epic feeling.

17:29.820 --> 17:34.865
[SPEAKER_00]: It was just weird that it was like, hey, you two knock it off and that's how you're ending the issue.

17:35.025 --> 17:36.747
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was just like, what the fuck?

17:36.767 --> 17:40.491
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, whose mom just came in and yelled at us for playing with toys?

17:40.711 --> 17:45.876
[SPEAKER_01]: They set her up a couple of issues back.

17:45.856 --> 17:47.198
[SPEAKER_01]: familiar with her.

17:47.678 --> 17:48.179
[SPEAKER_01]: She hates her.

17:48.479 --> 17:50.021
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, but you don't like her because she's a lady.

17:50.041 --> 17:50.742
[SPEAKER_01]: Is that what you're getting on?

17:50.782 --> 17:50.982
[SPEAKER_01]: No.

17:51.083 --> 17:53.626
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just saying any idea of a woman in charge.

17:54.086 --> 17:54.887
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, my God.

17:54.907 --> 17:56.589
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have a problem for it.

17:56.650 --> 17:58.812
[SPEAKER_01]: You just haven't voted for it in the past couple of months.

17:58.832 --> 17:59.453
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, my God.

17:59.493 --> 18:00.615
[SPEAKER_01]: That's not true at all.

18:00.955 --> 18:01.756
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't dare you.

18:01.776 --> 18:03.698
[SPEAKER_01]: I have the voted records right here, Pete.

18:04.019 --> 18:04.339
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

18:04.499 --> 18:05.601
[SPEAKER_00]: Bring them up, adds all.

18:05.901 --> 18:06.522
[SPEAKER_00]: Bring them up.

18:06.542 --> 18:06.983
[SPEAKER_00]: You wouldn't.

18:07.223 --> 18:10.527
[SPEAKER_00]: If you actually had them in front of you wouldn't say those things because it's a lot of no.

18:10.567 --> 18:11.248
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm trying.

18:11.288 --> 18:12.910
[SPEAKER_01]: But I can't get the software to work.

18:12.890 --> 18:16.376
[SPEAKER_00]: My pal being like, there's a huge battle raging on.

18:16.416 --> 18:18.960
[SPEAKER_00]: It was just so cool.

18:18.981 --> 18:24.129
[SPEAKER_00]: Or maybe you'd go to finally win and then it was like, hey, stop this.

18:24.230 --> 18:27.215
[SPEAKER_00]: We have to talk and it's like, look, the fuck!

18:27.235 --> 18:30.420
[SPEAKER_00]: It was just such a sore, left turn.

18:30.861 --> 18:34.948
[SPEAKER_00]: So we were building all this action and then all of a sudden it means nothing.

18:36.160 --> 18:38.705
[SPEAKER_02]: And you know, I feel like Alex was bullying you, Pete.

18:38.725 --> 18:42.953
[SPEAKER_02]: So I want to say something just true about you that I think will make the audience understand you more.

18:43.514 --> 18:48.724
[SPEAKER_02]: The phrase constructic on's form divestator is what you say every morning when you put your clothes on.

18:48.924 --> 18:50.247
[SPEAKER_02]: That's right, that is true.

18:50.587 --> 18:55.276
[SPEAKER_02]: It's fact, you stand nude over your laid-out outfit.

18:55.697 --> 18:55.978
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.

18:55.998 --> 18:57.240
[SPEAKER_02]: And you say form divestator.

18:57.220 --> 19:05.028
[SPEAKER_00]: That's correct, and they do, that's the fun part of this that actually works, that's how I get dressed.

19:05.048 --> 19:05.688
[SPEAKER_01]: It works.

19:09.092 --> 19:17.720
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, next up, absolute Wonder Woman, annual 2026 from DC Comics, Mike Kelly Thompson, art by Mataya de Illus, Eulus.

19:18.161 --> 19:26.569
[SPEAKER_01]: Sorry, this is following up on the plot point, way back, and I want to say like the sixth issue of the made series, something like that, we've been saying the sixties.

19:26.549 --> 19:46.427
[SPEAKER_01]: where one woman took the form of Medusa and had the thoughts and feelings and memories of Medusa for a little while, she has been very haunted by that and so praise to Athena to try to help Medusa in some way and sort of suss out what the myth is and what the reality is.

19:46.887 --> 19:49.873
[SPEAKER_01]: Pete, you're a pump in your fist, so let's go to Justin first.

19:51.406 --> 19:54.090
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I can't go ahead because all right great.

19:54.371 --> 19:55.953
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean this is an epic cover.

19:56.214 --> 20:00.220
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean just while what an issue I love this so much.

20:00.561 --> 20:07.492
[SPEAKER_00]: This is such a great example of a perfect Wonder Woman story Love the last panel love the art.

20:08.013 --> 20:12.801
[SPEAKER_00]: I laughed at the You know the Batman without powers line.

20:13.001 --> 20:14.724
[SPEAKER_00]: I cried at the last line.

20:14.764 --> 20:17.228
[SPEAKER_00]: This is just so

20:17.613 --> 20:25.242
[SPEAKER_00]: smart and well done and such a great team and such a great way to consider Medusa and to look at Medusa.

20:25.262 --> 20:35.214
[SPEAKER_00]: We have heard so many tales in different ways but this is just it feels so good and it just feels so Wonder Woman and I was just so moved by this.

20:35.494 --> 20:37.837
[SPEAKER_00]: This is just epic on so many levels.

20:38.498 --> 20:40.380
[SPEAKER_00]: I love this comic.

20:40.782 --> 20:44.508
[SPEAKER_02]: feel like we all got in the reading comics because we like heroes.

20:44.928 --> 20:59.551
[SPEAKER_02]: We like any character who is willing to be pure of heart open to the world and doing the right thing and there is no better comic, no better character than absolute woman showing that off right now.

20:59.811 --> 21:05.440
[SPEAKER_02]: It is unbelievable how she's been constructed to be just

21:05.420 --> 21:28.643
[SPEAKER_02]: maximal good that's why like i don't know she's just the best and in this story we get someone who is like fighting hard great action the art is so good and like really taking advantage of the extra pages you get it an annual to like just let the let each panel be big and breathe and be mythological like like one woman's talking about in here

21:28.623 --> 21:30.546
[SPEAKER_02]: It's your mythology.

21:30.586 --> 21:31.247
[SPEAKER_02]: It's my history.

21:31.267 --> 21:32.508
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was just a cool idea.

21:32.569 --> 21:36.614
[SPEAKER_02]: This comic just has everything slotted just right.

21:36.835 --> 21:38.837
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's always good.

21:39.278 --> 21:39.959
[SPEAKER_02]: She's the best hero.

21:40.540 --> 21:43.864
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, this is an absolutely fantastic issue.

21:43.885 --> 21:52.837
[SPEAKER_01]: I will just give a shot and I'll get a bang on this day again, but Mattia, who worked with Kelly Thompson on the call, which is another fantastic series.

21:52.857 --> 21:54.900
[SPEAKER_01]: You should read if you haven't checked it out.

21:55.184 --> 22:10.594
[SPEAKER_01]: But just gorgeous art throughout gorgeous creature designs, you know, one thing that I was thinking about when I was reading this is eye knock comics a lot for having just color washes as their backgrounds like they don't

22:10.574 --> 22:13.257
[SPEAKER_01]: They're doing it and I understand like it's a speed thing.

22:13.277 --> 22:15.620
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of things that I just, yeah, exactly.

22:15.680 --> 22:17.442
[SPEAKER_01]: But it doesn't look great.

22:17.483 --> 22:20.446
[SPEAKER_01]: What you're like, here is five pages of Deadpool on pink.

22:20.787 --> 22:21.748
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, where is he?

22:21.928 --> 22:22.669
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't understand.

22:23.430 --> 22:31.840
[SPEAKER_01]: But here, you're not getting that because you're getting Wonder Woman in this foggy limbo for most of the time.

22:31.960 --> 22:37.307
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's gorgeous because the colors and the shading are gorgeous and you understand

22:37.287 --> 22:40.633
[SPEAKER_01]: the place she is in is this in between place.

22:40.813 --> 22:57.642
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm just really struck by like there is a difference between this is a solid color and this is something that we are creating that is a misty libido where space and that's what comes through in the art here and it just shows a really great artist versus a brush job, you know?

22:58.010 --> 23:00.517
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, nothing about this feels rushed.

23:00.537 --> 23:00.778
[SPEAKER_02]: It's good.

23:00.798 --> 23:01.800
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to like saver.

23:02.302 --> 23:02.663
[SPEAKER_02]: I want it.

23:02.683 --> 23:13.673
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, every page like a bit of Yeah, I want like a You know, I want to eat this to some the finest raccoon shit at the most at a Michelin star restaurant

23:13.653 --> 23:17.699
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I thought we were, you know, like sharing a moment and then you ruin it, you know?

23:18.240 --> 23:19.862
[SPEAKER_00]: We're sharing a moment and I ruin it.

23:22.887 --> 23:24.189
[SPEAKER_02]: Both are always true.

23:24.269 --> 23:27.754
[SPEAKER_01]: And this is a great setup for somebody who shares a moment and also ruins it.

23:27.795 --> 23:32.742
[SPEAKER_01]: Star Wars, Jar Jar, number one from Marvel Written by Obbed, Bested, Mark Gook at Hime.

23:32.722 --> 23:47.455
[SPEAKER_01]: Rart by King of Macaugan and Laura Braga and in case you missed it, yes, that is I'm a best who played Jar Jar co-writing this comic and not only is Jar Jar in it, but he meets Jedi Killer in back.

23:47.995 --> 23:52.679
[SPEAKER_01]: It was the character that I'm a best plays in life action on the Disney plus shows.

23:53.220 --> 24:02.728
[SPEAKER_01]: So in fact, it is I'm a best meeting I'm a best at teaming up to save the

24:02.708 --> 24:06.393
[SPEAKER_01]: before something.

24:08.055 --> 24:10.319
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, where is Nick?

24:10.339 --> 24:12.602
[SPEAKER_01]: It's after attacking the clothes before revenge of the set.

24:12.622 --> 24:14.885
[SPEAKER_01]: That's where it's set.

24:15.185 --> 24:15.426
[SPEAKER_01]: Really good.

24:15.907 --> 24:22.035
[SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, Pete seems to want to die here, so I'll say something positive about this.

24:22.235 --> 24:23.417
[SPEAKER_01]: I think like,

24:23.397 --> 24:43.060
[SPEAKER_01]: I love that there has been a re-taking and re-owning of Ahmed Best in culture, like he has been very open about the fact that he was bullied to the point of not, I'll say this very kindly, like not feeling good about himself, it perhaps taking some action because of that.

24:43.040 --> 25:11.055
[SPEAKER_01]: uh... as the fact that like he's come back he's hosted i think there is like this secrets of the temple style jennie competition show he hosted he got to play killer and back in live action and like this is a silly charger book and it's charger and his character teaming up and going on an adventure and i think it's really nice and fun that he got to do it it's clearly for him but that's great yeah he's been through a lot

25:11.525 --> 25:17.097
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and I agree like, you know, I like, I like telling stories at this park.

25:17.178 --> 25:20.365
[SPEAKER_02]: Jar Jar was such a big character for the prequel.

25:20.385 --> 25:21.808
[SPEAKER_02]: So like, makes total sense.

25:22.590 --> 25:24.694
[SPEAKER_02]: I just feel like, and we can do this.

25:25.436 --> 25:28.082
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's just wreck on the way he talks.

25:28.062 --> 25:29.484
[SPEAKER_02]: Can we just change that?

25:29.804 --> 25:29.985
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

25:30.005 --> 25:34.271
[SPEAKER_02]: Because literally no one is like, perfect.

25:34.291 --> 25:35.012
[SPEAKER_02]: I love it.

25:35.733 --> 25:37.475
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah Um, woo, woo, woo.

25:37.495 --> 25:38.938
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a bob-back.

25:39.038 --> 25:39.378
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't.

25:39.699 --> 25:43.985
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's even critty listening to it in them in when you're watching the prequels.

25:44.005 --> 25:45.407
[SPEAKER_02]: Annoying, but tolerable.

25:45.847 --> 25:46.428
[SPEAKER_02]: Reading it.

25:46.689 --> 25:49.092
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to poke my eyes.

25:49.072 --> 25:52.617
[SPEAKER_02]: Because it's so I'm like, stop doing it that way, right?

25:52.677 --> 25:54.940
[SPEAKER_02]: The words that we're saying here.

25:55.020 --> 25:56.742
[SPEAKER_02]: And you hear his voice when you read it.

25:56.762 --> 26:05.214
[SPEAKER_02]: So otherwise, like, I agree, like, this is a nice, and like, you know, we're telling us, and there's this whole story here about the Palpatine scene.

26:05.254 --> 26:08.218
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, oh, I would have never expected to see this scene.

26:08.238 --> 26:17.070
[SPEAKER_02]: There was a good little scene there between Jar Jar and Palpatine, where Jar Jar is like working the system against the greatest villain of the Skywalker.

26:17.050 --> 26:36.510
[SPEAKER_01]: Trilogy, and so I'm sure Pete was going to say this in a second and I sincerely mean this cool cover The it is a very funny cover with three jar jars on it like a classic like three wolves shirt or something like that and I don't know funny

26:36.490 --> 26:37.572
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was very funny.

26:37.592 --> 26:56.524
[SPEAKER_01]: I kind of actually wish the rest of the issue was cheeky and ridiculous like that, rather than being like, no, we're doing a real adventure, where Jar Jar is a real hero, and there's jokes in there throughout, but I wish it was a little more ridiculous and archic, that's all.

26:56.723 --> 27:13.213
[SPEAKER_02]: Have you ever seen the videos that were at least saying that Jar Jar secretly like the mastermind of the force and his all of his like mistakes that he makes or actually force driven and he's like maybe a secret Sith Lord like that that's the book I'm ready to see.

27:13.193 --> 27:42.728
[SPEAKER_01]: they there was I didn't watch all of it but Lego Star Wars rebuild the galaxy they had Darth Jar Jar and there I believe was the big villain of the first series so that's how done that but yeah I agree that's the sort of thing that it should have been and two of us have talked so I think you're off the hook that's it yeah Pete's cut you know I'm sorry for what I'm at has been through you know I don't want that but we have to take into account what you've

27:42.995 --> 27:56.413
[SPEAKER_00]: no i just no i i'm not trying to say that i don't want you know i'm sorry that you don't even for all that but i i don't want to read this

27:56.613 --> 27:59.956
[SPEAKER_00]: I, you know, I don't want this to be good, you know?

28:00.317 --> 28:01.939
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't want it to be good.

28:02.639 --> 28:06.263
[SPEAKER_02]: That's just a hell, I've never heard someone have that thing.

28:06.844 --> 28:12.530
[SPEAKER_00]: I had to read this comic because you guys would make fun of me for not reading it.

28:13.411 --> 28:17.355
[SPEAKER_00]: But I just was like, what are we doing?

28:17.615 --> 28:18.216
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, what is this?

28:18.356 --> 28:19.116
[SPEAKER_00]: Biz steak dinner?

28:19.577 --> 28:20.578
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't want it to be good.

28:21.267 --> 28:24.231
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not interested in it to be good.

28:24.832 --> 28:25.613
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's bad.

28:25.953 --> 28:28.516
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought the art was good, but what are we doing?

28:28.817 --> 28:31.981
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, what are you trying to do?

28:32.581 --> 28:33.463
[SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean?

28:34.043 --> 28:35.946
[SPEAKER_00]: Either I agree with Justin.

28:36.066 --> 28:43.275
[SPEAKER_00]: Either changes voice, change him, so it can be something else or let's just leave it where it happened.

28:43.255 --> 29:05.449
[SPEAKER_01]: and let's just move on because this is just well i'll tell you what i think they're trying to do here is there has been a real retaking of the prequels in culture particularly for people who were much younger and growing up with them and they were their first star wars movies so this is a tab to take charge of a major character from that trilogy and treat it

29:05.581 --> 29:13.498
[SPEAKER_01]: seriously like treated as a character that can go on adventure that can be crucial to the Star Wars mythology.

29:13.538 --> 29:15.182
[SPEAKER_01]: There's some key moments that happen here.

29:15.202 --> 29:21.876
[SPEAKER_01]: There's the mother of a character that is very important to another character down the road who shows up here.

29:21.916 --> 29:23.279
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a big deal.

29:23.399 --> 29:24.602
[SPEAKER_01]: So like

29:24.582 --> 29:25.103
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

29:25.663 --> 29:38.761
[SPEAKER_01]: This is obviously not for us who were old and cranky by the time the prequels came out, but for people who this was their original Star Wars trilogy, they mean this is fun, you know, like maybe this is what you want to see.

29:38.861 --> 29:40.543
[SPEAKER_01]: And there are, is a lot of media.

29:40.563 --> 29:45.470
[SPEAKER_01]: There's books and novels and stories and everything that are exploring these characters in different ways.

29:45.550 --> 29:51.518
[SPEAKER_01]: So why not

29:52.375 --> 30:00.886
[SPEAKER_01]: The crown, a tale of hell, number one, from Dark Horse Comics written by Mike Minyola and Todd Minyola, no relation, art by Warwick Johnson.

30:01.026 --> 30:01.807
[SPEAKER_01]: Two series?

30:02.188 --> 30:02.969
[SPEAKER_01]: No, they're brothers.

30:03.229 --> 30:09.938
[SPEAKER_01]: And this is about... Hellboys, brothers, in hell, vying for the crown.

30:10.779 --> 30:16.587
[SPEAKER_01]: It is crazy to be that Warwick, Johnson and Cadwell, is not like Minyola based on the art.

30:17.328 --> 30:19.210
[SPEAKER_02]: That's all I want to say.

30:19.190 --> 30:21.773
[SPEAKER_02]: But it might take on this this book, which I really enjoyed.

30:21.813 --> 30:25.457
[SPEAKER_02]: This is like hellboy via adventure time.

30:26.338 --> 30:27.700
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, you're taking great way.

30:27.920 --> 30:29.642
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I loved this.

30:29.742 --> 30:31.804
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought the art really reflected that style.

30:31.864 --> 30:44.218
[SPEAKER_02]: There's so much comedy happening here while there's also so much like intrigue very like game of throne style conversations through the lens of adventure time, which I thought was just so fun.

30:45.953 --> 30:46.674
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I agree.

30:46.714 --> 30:48.155
[SPEAKER_00]: This was awesome.

30:48.375 --> 30:50.277
[SPEAKER_00]: Got some fun family drama here.

30:50.877 --> 30:52.078
[SPEAKER_00]: Amazing art.

30:52.098 --> 30:53.500
[SPEAKER_00]: Fun, weird story.

30:53.640 --> 30:55.001
[SPEAKER_00]: Like the twists and turns.

30:55.441 --> 30:56.182
[SPEAKER_00]: This is enjoyable.

30:57.203 --> 31:05.951
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think they, I mean, obviously did a good job of capturing the world of Hellboy, but this is much more packed than your regular Hellboy story.

31:05.971 --> 31:07.672
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's a lot more things going on.

31:08.853 --> 31:12.677
[SPEAKER_01]: Like it's not people just wandering through Hell and going on esoteric adventures.

31:12.957 --> 31:14.138
[SPEAKER_01]: It is.

31:14.776 --> 31:25.410
[SPEAKER_01]: It's still weird, but like it's much more straightforward at the same time, so if you have been like, huh, about some of the helpless stuff, this is a good one to pick up for sure.

31:26.167 --> 31:35.157
[SPEAKER_01]: Bleeding Hearts, number one, from Vertigo, written by Dennis Camp, art by Stepanumorian, after the Dice House, by the sea was back last week.

31:35.177 --> 31:49.073
[SPEAKER_01]: This is the first new title from the new Vertigo line, and it takes place in a world where zombies have taken over, and one of those zombies finds that his heart has started beating, again, of the name, Bleeding Hearts.

31:49.573 --> 31:51.215
[SPEAKER_01]: Justin, you're going to camp camp.

31:51.295 --> 31:52.697
[SPEAKER_01]: What'd you think about this one?

31:52.846 --> 32:08.661
[SPEAKER_02]: I love this book and I feel like it's funny to me that this is like the first new vertigo book because it's such a vertigo book and It's deep in the pocket like the the writing is so fresh all of the zombies have like

32:08.641 --> 32:12.286
[SPEAKER_02]: physical description names that are meticulously used throughout.

32:12.887 --> 32:29.552
[SPEAKER_02]: We're introduced to a world that is like a world we've seen of zombies but in a totally different like conception Really smartly drawn up from a writing point of view, but man the art is so like so fresh it feels like

32:29.532 --> 32:47.944
[SPEAKER_02]: something out of the like 70s, influence like mad magazine vibes while you're still hitting a compelling story with some great zombie attacks and interesting the zombie whose heart starts beating in the midst of all this great relationships.

32:48.645 --> 32:50.528
[SPEAKER_02]: One of my just fav of the week.

32:51.082 --> 32:58.971
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the art is really spectacular to be kind of gives a little bit hints of like, keep David the Max a little bit.

32:59.092 --> 33:02.235
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's just such a cool vibe.

33:02.336 --> 33:04.238
[SPEAKER_00]: It really makes the whole thing fun.

33:04.919 --> 33:07.842
[SPEAKER_00]: You really kind of wanted to see the world and spend time with it.

33:08.683 --> 33:10.926
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, interesting characters, cool idea.

33:10.966 --> 33:20.177
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, there's this rom-com that where it was like about zombies and then like these two, uh,

33:20.866 --> 33:21.447
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I am.

33:22.589 --> 33:25.052
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, just a solid rom-com.

33:25.072 --> 33:31.021
[SPEAKER_02]: And if you guys go back and listen, Pete brings up warm bodies in every single episode of the stack, he can't help it.

33:31.982 --> 33:35.147
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, we're talking about zombie love.

33:35.207 --> 33:37.010
[SPEAKER_01]: How can we not talk about warm bodies?

33:37.670 --> 33:46.123
[SPEAKER_01]: See, this made me immediately made me think of I zombie, which is a very different thing, but just based on the fact that being like a vertigo book about zombies.

33:46.784 --> 33:48.126
[SPEAKER_01]: I am, I also really like this.

33:48.146 --> 33:48.767
[SPEAKER_01]: I love that.

33:49.087 --> 33:49.708
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

33:49.688 --> 33:50.430
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

33:50.450 --> 33:50.871
[SPEAKER_01]: That is that.

33:51.152 --> 33:51.353
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

33:51.373 --> 33:51.834
[SPEAKER_01]: That is that.

33:53.077 --> 33:57.309
[SPEAKER_01]: It is interesting to me that they're essentially leading with yet another zombie book.

33:57.409 --> 34:00.778
[SPEAKER_01]: And the other thing that I'm curious about is...

34:00.877 --> 34:30.394
[SPEAKER_01]: what is vertigo now because everything is vertigo kind of like not across the board but images vertigo and boom is vertigo and odie presses you know they all have like their own little pockets but what makes DC vertigo different and this is a really good book but this more just sort of big picture I'm curious to see what happens what's we get through the first month of the

34:30.897 --> 34:34.525
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know, it's interesting, like it's a good start, Dennis Cam.

34:34.545 --> 34:35.046
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm great.

34:35.167 --> 34:38.975
[SPEAKER_01]: Stip and Morians are great, like we're saying.

34:39.055 --> 34:44.428
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'd follow this book no matter what, but curious to see how Vertigo nets out.

34:44.989 --> 34:46.813
[SPEAKER_01]: After like the first month or two, you know?

34:46.793 --> 34:47.634
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it is.

34:47.715 --> 34:48.796
[SPEAKER_00]: It's exciting.

34:48.836 --> 34:54.446
[SPEAKER_00]: But the the problem is it's like it was so successful that it changed comic books and you're right.

34:54.486 --> 34:59.254
[SPEAKER_00]: Like everybody is taken from the vertical kind of style a little bit.

34:59.714 --> 35:02.479
[SPEAKER_00]: So what is this kind of new take on vertical?

35:02.799 --> 35:09.190
[SPEAKER_00]: But I think this is an interesting start and leading with art and kind of bringing that like

35:10.182 --> 35:14.389
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, different grungy, you know, takes on things.

35:14.469 --> 35:17.033
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's an interesting start.

35:17.173 --> 35:22.621
[SPEAKER_00]: And I agree, like after a month, it will be interesting to see like what it is and where it becomes.

35:23.863 --> 35:26.788
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's an exciting time, I think.

35:27.088 --> 35:29.832
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'll be interested to see how this goes.

35:29.893 --> 35:31.515
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm rooting for it for sure.

35:31.495 --> 35:32.417
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we all are.

35:32.999 --> 35:35.945
[SPEAKER_01]: And here's another one, all three of us are rooting for cyclops.

35:35.986 --> 35:36.607
[SPEAKER_00]: Number one.

35:36.647 --> 35:38.732
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not too written by Alex.

35:38.772 --> 35:40.316
[SPEAKER_01]: Packed a dial, art by Rojay.

35:40.436 --> 35:40.977
[SPEAKER_01]: Antonio.

35:40.997 --> 35:43.082
[SPEAKER_01]: We had Alex on the show about a month back.

35:43.443 --> 35:45.668
[SPEAKER_01]: Talking about this book, he was pretty hyped for it.

35:45.989 --> 35:47.913
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a new mini series that takes cyclops.

35:47.994 --> 35:49.858
[SPEAKER_01]: Set in continuity.

35:49.838 --> 36:02.262
[SPEAKER_01]: So he's leading the X men in Alaska, but this issue, a rebuilt team of rivers take him down and we kind of already know what happens towards the edge of the issue, but

36:02.815 --> 36:04.016
[SPEAKER_01]: his visor cracks.

36:04.557 --> 36:14.949
[SPEAKER_01]: So he's going to have to wander through the woods and fight the rivers even though he basically can't see or at least can't open his eyes for fear of destroying everything around him.

36:15.529 --> 36:21.676
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll just say I thought this was a killer first issue whether you like Cyclops or not.

36:21.956 --> 36:24.499
[SPEAKER_01]: He is the level of badass.

36:24.619 --> 36:28.223
[SPEAKER_01]: I think he is in X-Men 97 was the first thing that I came to mind.

36:28.403 --> 36:29.004
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh yes.

36:29.084 --> 36:32.468
[SPEAKER_01]: We're just doing like he's doing these moves that are like

36:32.448 --> 36:33.494
[SPEAKER_01]: that's cool.

36:33.595 --> 36:35.023
[SPEAKER_01]: That is a cool thing to do.

36:35.285 --> 36:36.793
[SPEAKER_01]: And I love the idea.

36:36.813 --> 36:38.644
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a thing that

36:38.945 --> 36:49.358
[SPEAKER_01]: Alex brings, I think, brings back here where he's like, I could see, but I got brave damage when I was a kid.

36:50.099 --> 36:50.180
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

36:50.200 --> 36:51.301
[SPEAKER_01]: Totally for that.

36:51.321 --> 36:56.868
[SPEAKER_01]: I, yeah, that completely was out of mind, but it's something that he doesn't just bring back to explain it.

36:57.389 --> 37:03.737
[SPEAKER_01]: It's something that he's playing with in this issue, both through the level of cyclops's memory, what he remembers about his childhood.

37:03.717 --> 37:06.282
[SPEAKER_01]: and also how his powers actually work.

37:06.783 --> 37:12.073
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought this plus the new rivers are gross, and I give that to the best way.

37:12.173 --> 37:13.756
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I love the rivers as a villain.

37:14.257 --> 37:19.347
[SPEAKER_01]: They made them real scary in this book, and so I'm very excited to see what this goes.

37:19.327 --> 37:43.343
[SPEAKER_02]: same I feel like they read this this book really pluses up all of these ideas like it had me enjoying the current uh... x-men continuity home base a little bit it was drawn and it feels sort of shitty to be stuck in Alaska in the middle of winter in a way that i was like that explains a lot of why everything feels miserable in that book um... cyclops we get into his backstory reminded of it here and it's like

37:43.323 --> 37:44.585
[SPEAKER_02]: Everyone's like he's such a boy's guy.

37:44.645 --> 38:07.534
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like his childhood was hell like he's like there's a reason He has you know the his heart edge and his dedication to like following the rules and all of that because he his life was very chaotic before that Protecting this brother living in orphanage having this brain damage like crazy and we get the emotional hit of that While he's maintaining a tough exterior.

38:07.634 --> 38:12.300
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like this book is gonna take us on such a ride with him and emotional ride

38:12.280 --> 38:22.372
[SPEAKER_02]: reflected by the very physical and cool action idea that he can't control his bursts and the rivers are extremely recognizable villains.

38:22.992 --> 38:24.354
[SPEAKER_02]: So let's do that.

38:24.374 --> 38:28.198
[SPEAKER_01]: And I just want to say one thing before Pete agrees with you and me, Justin.

38:28.218 --> 38:29.440
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he's just nodding his head.

38:29.500 --> 38:31.822
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's going straight off.

38:31.862 --> 38:32.203
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not.

38:32.363 --> 38:34.966
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't hit your mic with your forehead, Pete, because you're nodding your heads.

38:35.166 --> 38:42.034
[SPEAKER_01]: Something we talked about a little bit with this era of

38:42.014 --> 38:47.459
[SPEAKER_01]: that they've introduced, and I appreciate them introducing new villains, but like, I don't know, not a lot of them are working.

38:47.479 --> 38:53.325
[SPEAKER_01]: Having Donald Pierce back, a character who is motivation, is like, well, I hate mutants, and I wish they were dead.

38:53.465 --> 38:56.128
[SPEAKER_01]: So I built cyborgs to kill them, period.

38:56.148 --> 38:57.369
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, and that's a small plan.

38:57.409 --> 38:59.031
[SPEAKER_01]: It's good.

38:59.231 --> 39:02.014
[SPEAKER_01]: Like it's nice, and it's clean, and it's understandable.

39:02.434 --> 39:04.777
[SPEAKER_02]: He's such a mad scientist, other bashedly.

39:05.017 --> 39:11.143
[SPEAKER_02]: He's like, well, I'll kill you too with my drill as I make you into a, and I was like, okay.

39:11.123 --> 39:23.855
[SPEAKER_01]: All of those, I mean, granted this is when I was like in my private reading X-Men, but all of those characters like Donald Pierce and Cameron Hodge and everybody who are like, I'm gonna kill you X-Men!

39:24.335 --> 39:32.163
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a level I like that better, like I like that because that makes puts the X-Men in a position where like, Oh, back off, man!

39:32.683 --> 39:38.008
[SPEAKER_01]: Versus these new visions are like, we're just like you and we want to do the same things, but like, kind of in a fucked up way.

39:38.461 --> 39:39.723
[SPEAKER_02]: Alex, you're still in your prime.

39:40.284 --> 39:41.186
[SPEAKER_02]: Never say otherwise.

39:41.246 --> 39:41.747
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.

39:41.787 --> 39:42.509
[SPEAKER_01]: Never say that.

39:42.529 --> 39:42.929
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you.

39:43.050 --> 39:45.013
[SPEAKER_01]: And Pete, you were about to agree with that.

39:45.033 --> 39:46.756
[SPEAKER_01]: You did, Ty, believe me.

39:46.796 --> 39:49.942
[SPEAKER_00]: Not agreeing with anything that has been said.

39:49.962 --> 39:54.210
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, this is not my cup of tea.

39:54.290 --> 39:59.119
[SPEAKER_00]: I would not go and spend money on this because I don't like sideclops.

39:59.460 --> 40:01.684
[SPEAKER_00]: And this doesn't make me think.

40:01.664 --> 40:04.126
[SPEAKER_02]: We don't think this is a cool version of Cycle.

40:04.146 --> 40:08.530
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, oh, this is, he's yelling at these kids, you know?

40:08.590 --> 40:10.812
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's like, I want fucking soldiers.

40:10.832 --> 40:13.474
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, dude, yeah, but that's what we go.

40:13.594 --> 40:15.616
[SPEAKER_01]: Beast is very specifically like, what are you doing?

40:15.736 --> 40:16.477
[SPEAKER_01]: Back off, man.

40:16.537 --> 40:17.498
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Cobb down to that.

40:17.678 --> 40:19.099
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, that's the point to the book.

40:19.219 --> 40:21.461
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, he's going, he's a dick.

40:21.481 --> 40:22.302
[SPEAKER_00]: And he sucks.

40:23.002 --> 40:24.223
[SPEAKER_00]: He shouldn't be in charge.

40:24.904 --> 40:25.104
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

40:25.184 --> 40:27.106
[SPEAKER_02]: So, yeah, I, oh, sorry, it's an unrelated question.

40:27.126 --> 40:30.709
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the punisher ever said anything that you like don't quite agree with.

40:30.689 --> 40:34.053
[SPEAKER_02]: Sure, don't a hundred percent get on with it, but you respect it.

40:34.933 --> 40:36.915
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

40:37.096 --> 40:49.929
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what we're doing here, but You know, I mean obviously, I'm not gonna like a Cyclops book and I tried to read it You know, just so Alice could torture me later.

40:50.049 --> 40:54.434
[SPEAKER_00]: So I did Well, I'm to dark path Pete.

40:54.454 --> 40:55.034
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, sorry.

40:55.054 --> 41:00.460
[SPEAKER_01]: I just want to clarify the last thing Pete said I'm turning him into a reverb leader So yeah, no

41:00.794 --> 41:06.160
[SPEAKER_01]: a river who loves cyclops keep flesh tight because it's river time.

41:06.220 --> 41:12.227
[SPEAKER_01]: The center holds number one from boob studios written by Larry Hamaard by emitter.

41:12.247 --> 41:13.548
[SPEAKER_01]: He had a dock bright.

41:13.568 --> 41:19.955
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a new superhero book by Larry Hama and the unfortunately late MD dock bright who passed away.

41:19.995 --> 41:25.401
[SPEAKER_01]: This was something that they were working on for a very, very long time together and then fortunately.

41:25.381 --> 41:32.474
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm bright past on, but they are finally getting it out anyway so that everybody could see is art.

41:33.556 --> 41:34.678
[SPEAKER_01]: What do you guys think about this one?

41:36.141 --> 41:36.421
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

41:36.441 --> 41:37.804
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, the art is great.

41:38.385 --> 41:40.489
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot to this.

41:40.529 --> 41:41.190
[SPEAKER_00]: There's real.

41:41.530 --> 41:44.095
[SPEAKER_00]: You could tell this was like thought about.

41:44.135 --> 41:47.862
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of kind of depth to these characters as a lot going on here.

41:48.061 --> 41:51.910
[SPEAKER_00]: It's such an interesting kind of take on so-called heroes.

41:52.030 --> 42:03.876
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I appreciate that they put this out, you know, post-mortem, but, you know, it is great art.

42:04.058 --> 42:08.307
[SPEAKER_02]: Pete, you're sort of our MC Hama, so thank you for that review.

42:08.868 --> 42:11.874
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like I think the R in here is great.

42:11.955 --> 42:20.312
[SPEAKER_02]: It has such a, and the writing has such a match to the R. It's such an old school vibe in the,

42:20.292 --> 42:27.867
[SPEAKER_02]: But like undercutting superheroes in the way that Watchman did not quite with the as much of an impact.

42:27.927 --> 42:31.213
[SPEAKER_02]: I would say so far, but But I do like this.

42:31.574 --> 42:41.693
[SPEAKER_02]: I wish the title was something was different words It's just not descriptive of what's going on did the center holds is such a like huh?

42:42.483 --> 42:45.788
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot going on in this issue and there are bits that I like to hear us.

42:45.848 --> 42:50.714
[SPEAKER_01]: I like to, it does feel like it's so many ideas that are packed in here.

42:50.794 --> 42:53.017
[SPEAKER_01]: It's hard to focus on any particular one.

42:53.057 --> 43:03.732
[SPEAKER_01]: People have done it before, but it is tough to introduce an entire new superhero world in one issue.

43:03.712 --> 43:06.715
[SPEAKER_01]: I just don't think that's the bothered way that we do things.

43:06.935 --> 43:15.925
[SPEAKER_01]: I wish peace-wise they had focused in on one character and explored it from there, but that's not the book we got, so there you go.

43:15.945 --> 43:22.071
[SPEAKER_01]: Siren's Love Hurt's number one from DC Comics, written by Tini Howard, Art by Babs Tar.

43:22.632 --> 43:26.356
[SPEAKER_01]: This has been described as long Halloween for the girlies.

43:26.516 --> 43:29.719
[SPEAKER_01]: I believe Tini Howard said that at the New York Comic-Con panel,

43:29.699 --> 43:45.909
[SPEAKER_01]: It is a four-issue series that focuses on poison ivy, Harley Quinn, and Catwoman, and Black Canary all the grudgically teaming up to solve a murder while also dealing with the upcoming wedding of green arrow and Black Canary.

43:46.289 --> 43:53.142
[SPEAKER_01]: There's also clearly elements of sex in the city into here as these four characters go to brunch for most of the first half of the issue.

43:53.122 --> 43:58.991
[SPEAKER_01]: before they get it to costume and head to a concert and solve some crimes in the second half of the issue.

43:59.011 --> 44:01.295
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought this was a lot of fun.

44:01.335 --> 44:03.599
[SPEAKER_01]: The characterizations are really enjoyable.

44:04.060 --> 44:06.463
[SPEAKER_01]: More than anything Babs Tar's costumes.

44:06.644 --> 44:07.605
[SPEAKER_01]: I think are great.

44:07.625 --> 44:08.667
[SPEAKER_01]: She gives everybody

44:08.984 --> 44:22.976
[SPEAKER_01]: such specific looks and every single scene from like just the out on the town fashion, which is very specific to poison ivy's costume is really cool and very different from the costume that she has in current continuity.

44:23.376 --> 44:31.684
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, this is working on what Babstar said on that panel, but she was like, we want to do something for cosplayers and give cosplayers as much stuff to wear as you really possible.

44:32.264 --> 44:38.029
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that really comes through in the art

44:38.397 --> 44:43.942
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree, the tone, the vibe, and just the feel of this book is great.

44:44.523 --> 44:46.244
[SPEAKER_02]: It's very funny to me when they all meet up.

44:46.264 --> 44:47.565
[SPEAKER_02]: They're like, oh, what are you doing here?

44:47.585 --> 44:49.907
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, you guys see each other constantly.

44:49.927 --> 44:50.848
[SPEAKER_02]: It's an interesting surprise.

44:50.868 --> 44:56.814
[SPEAKER_02]: How are you surprised to be bumping into each other for a slightly aggressive mission that they go on?

44:57.534 --> 45:08.404
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a little bit of a mystery here, but it's such a just having this art here such a refresh on the sort of usual way we see these characters.

45:09.565 --> 45:36.822
[SPEAKER_00]: uh... yeah this is fun um... arts great uh... yeah i can feel for black canary and this she's sacrificing a lot to kind of hang out with the cool kids a little bit but uh... yeah i'm interested to see where this is going to go and fun villain reveal there at the end so yeah i do want to just throw out on the costume friday it's relatively better things but also the way babstar draws the dudes specifically greed arrow who's just like

45:36.802 --> 45:41.511
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just a pro, I get out backstage, but the one that really struck me was Caliderbad.

45:41.551 --> 45:46.280
[SPEAKER_01]: He comes into the club, but he's wearing like sort of like a very nicely fitting shirt.

45:46.481 --> 45:53.093
[SPEAKER_01]: And he looks good when usually he's like, I'm the dirtiest guy in Arkham with my weird head tattoo.

45:53.354 --> 45:55.097
[SPEAKER_02]: He's usually naked.

45:55.077 --> 46:03.209
[SPEAKER_02]: We're gonna brag around his torso and he's like, that's January, okay, okay, so I like that.

46:03.229 --> 46:07.736
[SPEAKER_01]: Just I like creating this world where it's like, oh, wow, everybody looks pretty good, so there you go.

46:07.756 --> 46:14.746
[SPEAKER_01]: Mark Spector, Bouddehyde, never went from Marvel by Jedbike, art by Devblyah, promenek in this first issue.

46:14.826 --> 46:21.997
[SPEAKER_01]: Mark Spector has been captured by a bunch of villains who are trying to break him using fear gas.

46:22.117 --> 46:23.920
[SPEAKER_01]: Can you break Bouddehyde now?

46:23.900 --> 46:24.921
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think you look bad.

46:25.622 --> 46:26.303
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think so.

46:26.483 --> 46:28.125
[SPEAKER_02]: This guy's brain is crazy.

46:28.545 --> 46:29.226
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

46:29.286 --> 46:30.908
[SPEAKER_02]: I think is the point we're getting at here.

46:32.089 --> 46:34.471
[SPEAKER_01]: We, well, all, all, all, all speak for myself.

46:34.932 --> 46:40.198
[SPEAKER_01]: I have been a little back and forth on a lot of Jen because Moody Knight Rodney.

46:40.478 --> 46:45.303
[SPEAKER_01]: It keeps starting at intriguing places and then losing me as it goes on.

46:45.363 --> 46:49.748
[SPEAKER_01]: This one, though, was the strongest start I thought so far.

46:49.888 --> 46:51.510
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought this was like,

46:51.490 --> 46:59.701
[SPEAKER_01]: a killer first issue where I'm not a big boondite fed, but there were several awesome moments where I was like, oh yeah, okay, here we go.

47:00.282 --> 47:01.884
[SPEAKER_01]: That we're just really fun.

47:01.924 --> 47:09.915
[SPEAKER_01]: It's this mix of Jeff Lamier's brain bed dig stuff that he brought to boondite with just some killer boondite action stuff at the same time.

47:09.955 --> 47:20.890
[SPEAKER_01]: Some great mixed media art from devil y'all, probadak as well that I won't necessarily spoiled, but I'm sure somebody else will.

47:21.832 --> 47:22.574
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I agree.

47:22.594 --> 47:23.636
[SPEAKER_00]: Plus a cool cover.

47:24.960 --> 47:27.205
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it was fun to kind of see the cover.

47:27.225 --> 47:28.087
[SPEAKER_00]: By the way, his mood net.

47:29.170 --> 47:30.553
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, perfect.

47:30.633 --> 47:30.954
[SPEAKER_00]: I knew.

47:31.536 --> 47:31.936
[SPEAKER_00]: Number one.

47:32.718 --> 47:34.643
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's a cool kind of like a.

47:34.859 --> 47:40.105
[SPEAKER_00]: pose and and great art that the light and all that's it is shading.

47:40.145 --> 47:41.387
[SPEAKER_00]: It's really well done.

47:41.407 --> 47:41.667
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyways.

47:42.508 --> 47:50.278
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I like this kind of take on Mark the kind of low man on the totem bullies in the male room and you got the evil boss.

47:50.298 --> 47:52.400
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I mean, we've all been there.

47:53.081 --> 47:54.843
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, love the last panel.

47:55.223 --> 47:58.648
[SPEAKER_00]: The art style is creepy in all the right ways for this story.

47:58.688 --> 48:00.350
[SPEAKER_00]: It really brings such a cool vibe to it.

48:00.830 --> 48:02.332
[SPEAKER_00]: I love this first issue.

48:02.392 --> 48:04.815
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they did a great job.

48:04.795 --> 48:12.289
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you think of his new ad that on the last page has cost him being like sort of loose black pants no shirt and white gloves?

48:14.032 --> 48:15.575
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, little into it.

48:16.336 --> 48:16.737
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, man.

48:17.138 --> 48:17.859
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, definitely.

48:17.879 --> 48:19.081
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a good ship in Dales.

48:19.141 --> 48:20.644
[SPEAKER_01]: That's when I hit where's the work.

48:21.130 --> 48:22.331
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, exactly.

48:22.812 --> 48:23.953
[SPEAKER_00]: That's my every day.

48:24.274 --> 48:24.374
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

48:24.394 --> 48:28.399
[SPEAKER_01]: When he says Constructicon's form of devastating.

48:28.419 --> 48:29.160
[SPEAKER_01]: For devastating?

48:29.200 --> 48:30.081
[SPEAKER_01]: For devastating?

48:30.101 --> 48:30.722
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what happens.

48:30.742 --> 48:33.525
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, the team up last panel is just so bad at that.

48:33.565 --> 48:40.514
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, if you want to try to take shots at the fashion aspect of it, I think you're missing the point, but okay.

48:40.534 --> 48:50.226
[SPEAKER_01]: My bigger question is, I'm getting back to what I said earlier about like, wow, his

48:50.662 --> 48:51.723
[SPEAKER_01]: waiver from there.

48:51.763 --> 48:56.909
[SPEAKER_01]: We ended a totally different place than where we started at the beginning of this issue.

48:56.989 --> 49:15.788
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm very curious with the overall story is because it is the sort of brainbending thing that I think could have powered six issues, potentially 12 issues, even something like that as they got deeper and deeper, but instead it feels like they're ditching the conceit here at the end of the first issue, but maybe they're not.

49:16.309 --> 49:16.629
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I guess.

49:49.049 --> 49:49.830
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, what?

49:50.151 --> 50:16.187
[SPEAKER_00]: And you're sleeping, when you're sleeping with none checks, you never strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the night or you always strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the middle of the night or you always strangle yourself with the night or you always strangle yourself with the night or you always strangle yourself with the night or you always strangle yourself with the night or you always strangle yourself with the night or you always strangle yourself with

50:16.437 --> 50:18.220
[SPEAKER_02]: That feels also complicated.

50:18.240 --> 50:19.501
[SPEAKER_02]: You do not turn over.

50:19.521 --> 50:21.324
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, man.

50:21.384 --> 50:22.205

[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, well, good to Brooklyn.

50:29.836 --> 50:30.297
[SPEAKER_01]: Am I right?

50:30.877 --> 50:32.099
[SPEAKER_01]: No, yeah.

50:32.119 --> 50:37.907
[SPEAKER_01]: Geiger, number 21 from Ghost Machine, an image comics written by Jeff Johnson, Art by Gary Frank in this issue.

50:37.967 --> 50:42.173
[SPEAKER_01]: Geiger is teaming up with the Northerner and ooh, they got a Nazi tech.

50:42.193 --> 50:44.757
[SPEAKER_01]: They got a drive across America.

50:45.108 --> 50:57.699
[SPEAKER_01]: But there is a lot of big mythology stuff for this whole universe that's getting laid out here that I thought was very interesting in this issue Yeah, what do you guys think?

50:58.020 --> 50:58.882
[SPEAKER_01]: How are you feeling?

50:58.902 --> 51:01.328
[SPEAKER_01]: Are you blowing up on Geiger?

51:02.320 --> 51:05.284
[SPEAKER_00]: I love Geiger.

51:05.344 --> 51:06.986
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's a great comic.

51:07.907 --> 51:11.452
[SPEAKER_00]: The time machine tank is weird for me.

51:11.472 --> 51:17.279
[SPEAKER_00]: I know tanks are super popular and stuff right now, but what do you mean?

51:17.340 --> 51:21.305
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a tank movie, there's like ghost tank.

51:21.325 --> 51:26.151
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a bunch of tanks.

51:26.823 --> 51:29.033
[SPEAKER_00]: You're on tank talk.

51:29.093 --> 51:30.700
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you on tank talk?

51:30.760 --> 51:31.021
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

51:31.041 --> 51:32.769
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm all over tank.

51:32.789 --> 51:35.601
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, there's some movie called tank.

51:36.965 --> 51:37.366
[SPEAKER_00]: I got it.

[SPEAKER_01]: I've just never heard of this movie.

51:44.639 --> 51:57.724
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the tank thing is probably Jeff Jones riffing on the haunted tank because he's already got GI robot is what's the day of metal Joe the guy.

51:58.801 --> 52:01.205
[SPEAKER_01]: God, that he has a GI robot in this universe.

52:01.685 --> 52:02.527
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's Joe.

52:02.767 --> 52:03.007
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

52:03.548 --> 52:04.329
[SPEAKER_01]: Junkyard Joe.

52:04.349 --> 52:05.131
[SPEAKER_01]: Junkyard Joe.

52:05.331 --> 52:09.377
[SPEAKER_01]: So anyway, the tank is, you know, they'll do it that way.

52:09.397 --> 52:11.700
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, that, I'm just looking up tank movie.

52:12.442 --> 52:15.947
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, there wasn't movie called The Tank from 2025.

[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.

52:16.508 --> 52:19.152
[SPEAKER_02]: A German movie.

[SPEAKER_02]: Pete?

52:22.325 --> 52:29.874
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I saw it advertised.

52:29.894 --> 52:30.975
[SPEAKER_00]: I was aware of it.

52:31.055 --> 52:33.838
[SPEAKER_02]: It was in my when you were Summering in Berlin.

52:34.259 --> 52:37.342
[SPEAKER_02]: What happened?

52:37.362 --> 52:38.503
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I don't summer.

52:38.543 --> 52:42.448
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, you don't have to go to Berlin to travel back in time and kill baby Hitler.

52:42.468 --> 52:44.350
[SPEAKER_01]: You could be anywhere and then go there.

52:44.600 --> 52:46.644
[SPEAKER_02]: P goes in case that's when the time is.

52:46.664 --> 52:51.733
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's why I I hope that if I by going there I can get some kind of time.

52:51.753 --> 52:52.575
[SPEAKER_00]: We're gonna ask your question.

52:52.595 --> 52:55.821
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you do a baby Hitler came forward into the future to kill you?

52:55.841 --> 52:58.085

[SPEAKER_02]: I think I'll fucked up.

53:02.092 --> 53:06.220
[SPEAKER_02]: You have to be a baby Hitler's going to kill you

53:07.870 --> 53:09.633
[SPEAKER_02]: that's such a funny idea.

53:10.916 --> 53:12.178
[SPEAKER_02]: I like this issue.

53:12.258 --> 53:14.302
[SPEAKER_02]: I like that Geiger's doing some different stuff.

53:14.983 --> 53:16.125
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's cool.

53:16.546 --> 53:19.651
[SPEAKER_02]: It it changes up the vibe of this.

53:19.792 --> 53:23.378
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you guys feel about August 36th as a day?

53:23.579 --> 53:26.684
[SPEAKER_02]: We get a full full page of a calendar.

53:26.844 --> 53:27.325
[SPEAKER_01]: Here's the thing.

53:27.446 --> 53:29.770
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think we need more August.

53:29.870 --> 53:30.992
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I would say.

53:31.276 --> 53:39.014
[SPEAKER_01]: The last day of August is my wedding anniversary so I like that, but by that point, I'm ready for September.

53:39.175 --> 53:43.585
[SPEAKER_01]: Like let's go through in the future the more days in the month.

53:43.665 --> 53:44.227
[SPEAKER_01]: That's great.

53:44.247 --> 53:44.527
[SPEAKER_01]: September.

53:44.567 --> 53:45.670
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm trying to get to fall.

53:45.770 --> 53:46.973
[SPEAKER_01]: There's better weather then.

53:47.948 --> 53:51.957
[SPEAKER_02]: And the August real vacation month really fun.

53:51.977 --> 53:53.179
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

53:53.199 --> 53:53.300
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

53:53.320 --> 53:54.222
[SPEAKER_01]: Not for this guy.

53:54.322 --> 53:55.184
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm always working.

53:56.246 --> 54:01.457
[SPEAKER_01]: Aquaman number 14 from DC Comics written by Jeremy Adams, art by Daniel Bayless.

54:01.517 --> 54:03.722
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a DC KO tie in.

54:05.225 --> 54:08.252
[SPEAKER_01]: Question mark.

54:08.232 --> 54:24.385
[SPEAKER_01]: as there's a battle for control of the seas and there's a evolution power of the blue there's a change in the hierarchy of power in the ocean

54:25.242 --> 54:30.750
[SPEAKER_02]: He's done like you're struggling to read a press release that you don't know occupants not my thing.

54:30.810 --> 54:43.690
[SPEAKER_01]: What do you guys think your aqua heads do you what you don't like aquamanic in I just this is not fair So I don't I try not to talk about this too much, but like as soon as they go into the sea There's something in my hand that I like come on

54:44.311 --> 55:09.846
[SPEAKER_01]: What are you being under to see it's I don't have a problem with people flag through the air flag through space, but as soon as they're under the ocean, it's just not I can't I don't know why I can't explain why it's not interesting to me, shit, have you tried swimming you're gonna hate it, no, I like swimming I just don't like to make sense, but they're like, wow, it's just like the land, but also there's water, maybe that's the problem is that like as a comic that makes no difference to be

55:09.826 --> 55:15.916
[SPEAKER_01]: You could be sure, like, take the blue away, and it's exactly the same thing as on-led.

55:16.519 --> 55:17.845
[SPEAKER_01]: It affects the story.

55:18.787 --> 55:43.233
[SPEAKER_01]: What sort of make why and all they fly through the I'm serious like these different people they're there have been stories that deal with actual Under DC stuff or something is about the sea, but most of the time it's exactly the same thing where it's like We have a bunch of Kingdoms under the sea everybody's fried to the Kingdoms Aquabad is the king, but we don't want it to be the king anymore.

55:43.293 --> 55:44.335
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's see what happens.

55:44.395 --> 55:46.617
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe there's gonna be a shake up with the king

55:47.288 --> 56:01.404
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's the other part is like I don't love kings as characters in comic books because I'm like you have other things to be doing right now the biggest superhero right like or fighting wells or whatever you're doing like you have a job you have stuff you need to be doing.

56:01.424 --> 56:07.270
[SPEAKER_01]: That's every character not just it's very specifically kings like whatever they get to king characters of like you got to do.

56:07.330 --> 56:09.653
[SPEAKER_01]: The only one that has to write is Dr. Doom.

56:10.073 --> 56:16.300
[SPEAKER_01]: He's

56:16.280 --> 56:19.144
[SPEAKER_01]: I got to feel this accursed Richards.

56:19.624 --> 56:21.687
[SPEAKER_01]: How do you manage management?

56:21.727 --> 56:23.730
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't understand how you're brainwashed.

56:23.750 --> 56:25.131
[SPEAKER_01]: She'll force get out of here.

56:25.432 --> 56:26.573
[SPEAKER_00]: What do you like name more?

56:29.317 --> 56:31.039
[SPEAKER_01]: I do literally the same thing.

56:31.099 --> 56:32.661
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the same thing.

56:32.781 --> 56:34.203
[SPEAKER_01]: Most of the time with daybore.

56:34.363 --> 56:35.865
[SPEAKER_01]: Most of the time with daybore though.

56:35.925 --> 56:37.427
[SPEAKER_01]: Daybore is like

56:37.930 --> 56:59.415
[SPEAKER_01]: Something is happening here and I've got to come out of the sea and kick your ass and now I have to go back to the sea All right You want your kings to be in a bad mood Like you don't have to come in I've got to do the king thing Little time for all this So he just did this in front Interesting he's beaker actually Yeah

57:02.365 --> 57:25.791
[SPEAKER_02]: I will say so this story feels like Jeremy Adams is like I don't care about DCK I'm gonna continue my fun under under to see story and like I like the the mirror of it all and the the power play between her and her mom But they really came alive to me the last like five pages when Aquaman does come back the confrontation between him and Adriana Mirz mom I thought was great

57:26.159 --> 57:39.865
[SPEAKER_02]: and she sort of has taken his power because Aquaman has been sort of suited up with his control of the blue and we get that flipped here and then we get a last page that I thought was really interesting.

57:40.334 --> 57:50.807
[SPEAKER_01]: So I thought the ending was very strong when they were on the land and then the last period was on the land.

57:50.987 --> 57:51.307
[SPEAKER_01]: I like that.

57:51.328 --> 57:52.149
[SPEAKER_01]: And they were on the land.

57:52.169 --> 57:54.291
[SPEAKER_02]: And these two, they are owned at the last end of it.

57:54.311 --> 57:56.614
[SPEAKER_02]: They're like, let's bring this up to the surface.

57:56.754 --> 57:58.897
[SPEAKER_02]: And Alex is like, hell, yeah.

57:58.917 --> 58:01.921
[SPEAKER_01]: The last page where I was like, oh, now he's a little kid again.

58:01.981 --> 58:03.042
[SPEAKER_01]: He doesn't have to be a kid.

58:03.102 --> 58:05.565
[SPEAKER_01]: That's going to be so much less complicated.

58:06.406 --> 58:07.448
[SPEAKER_02]: Really feeling the stress.

58:07.789 --> 58:08.951
[SPEAKER_02]: That's such a peat take.

58:08.991 --> 58:09.792
[SPEAKER_02]: You have it.

58:09.812 --> 58:10.674
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I don't be like.

58:10.794 --> 58:12.117
[SPEAKER_01]: That's why I don't like to mention it.

58:12.177 --> 58:12.838
[SPEAKER_01]: It's bad.

58:12.938 --> 58:13.960
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a bad take.

58:14.060 --> 58:16.224
[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't make it all right.

58:16.264 --> 58:22.997
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, at least you know not that all p takes are bad, but But soon the blank.

58:23.017 --> 58:23.858
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you go.

58:24.059 --> 58:27.064
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, I'm going to pee with another take.

58:27.297 --> 58:29.720
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I, I like this.

58:29.780 --> 58:35.386
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought they, you know, the evil creepy mom who kills off your husband.

58:35.486 --> 58:37.449
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, that's, that's always gonna be an issue.

58:37.489 --> 58:38.149
[SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean?

58:38.229 --> 58:47.340
[SPEAKER_00]: So, yeah, I, you know, it's just was, I was just like, you can't do this Aquaman's, the middle of a very important tournament right now.

58:47.740 --> 58:50.183
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's, uh, pulled them out.

58:50.163 --> 58:54.728
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so I was a little shocked by that, which I think was fun.

58:55.469 --> 58:58.592
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I also really enjoyed the art, and I don't hate Aquaman.

58:59.453 --> 59:06.161
[SPEAKER_01]: Wade Wilson, Deadpool, number one from Marvel, written by Benjamin Percy, art by Jeff Shaw.

59:06.661 --> 59:11.387
[SPEAKER_01]: In this issue, we're getting what I thought was going to be a more serious take on Deadpool.

59:11.667 --> 59:12.728
[SPEAKER_01]: It isn't really.

59:12.708 --> 59:29.839
[SPEAKER_01]: Nope, but he is bummed out about something that happened to his daughter, then we'll find out about later, and he is trying to die as hard as he can, unfortunately, his body and his powers will let him die, so he's just getting hurt horribly and then coming back from it.

59:29.819 --> 59:37.634
[SPEAKER_01]: But with sexually as the back-to-basic approach where he is a mercenary, he's working for Hammerhead, he's living with blind owl.

59:38.757 --> 59:45.750
[SPEAKER_01]: He's not doing quite as much winking and looking at the camera, though there's plenty of jokes and meta-jokes.

59:45.911 --> 59:48.115
[SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, what you guys think about this issue.

59:49.546 --> 59:54.571
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, it started off pretty sad and crazy, but ends up with some hope, so that's always nice.

59:56.092 --> 01:00:02.218
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm looking forward to the next issue to kind of see how this is all gonna kind of like, once it kind of hits a groove.

01:00:03.259 --> 01:00:04.260
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I love the art.

01:00:04.280 --> 01:00:06.963
[SPEAKER_00]: It seems like an interesting kind of take on Deadpool.

01:00:07.683 --> 01:00:13.189
[SPEAKER_00]: The art style has a silliness and a madness to it, which I think works really well for this comic.

01:00:14.070 --> 01:00:17.713
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I'm interested to see, what's gonna happen?

01:00:18.132 --> 01:00:20.416
[SPEAKER_02]: I like what Deadpool is a little de-powered.

01:00:20.656 --> 01:00:28.870
[SPEAKER_02]: I think he's a little over the watching him just kill and die, like for 15 pages, and I was like, I definitely don't need to see more of that.

01:00:28.910 --> 01:00:33.177
[SPEAKER_02]: The Deadpool Wolverine movie got me fully tanked on that.

01:00:33.818 --> 01:00:36.021
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what tanks are really popular right now, I heard.

01:00:36.422 --> 01:00:37.664
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's so fully tanked.

01:00:37.684 --> 01:00:43.093
[SPEAKER_01]: You see there was movie in Berlin in 2025 called Tank?

01:00:43.073 --> 01:00:44.236
[SPEAKER_02]: Really good.

01:00:44.256 --> 01:00:46.842
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I mean, Pete loves, I mean, Pete does love vehicles.

01:00:47.022 --> 01:00:47.844
[SPEAKER_02]: So I guess it makes sense.

01:00:47.864 --> 01:00:49.729
[SPEAKER_02]: He loves a movie called The Tank.

01:00:49.749 --> 01:00:51.333

[SPEAKER_02]: The.

01:00:58.295 --> 01:01:06.267
[SPEAKER_02]: But I will say the the the sort of early edition CBS's early edition idea that happens at the end of this issue.

01:01:06.307 --> 01:01:18.024
[SPEAKER_02]: I shout to my uh... octagenarians at the time, who like early odds uh... vaguely christian television.

01:01:18.385 --> 01:01:20.488
[SPEAKER_02]: That was 2000s wasn't it?

01:01:21.498 --> 01:01:23.984
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what I said early on.

01:01:24.345 --> 01:01:25.708
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, we're really hot, so okay.

01:01:25.728 --> 01:01:26.049
[SPEAKER_02]: It was it.

01:01:26.290 --> 01:01:27.773
[SPEAKER_02]: I actually thought I was wrong about that.

01:01:27.854 --> 01:01:32.204
[SPEAKER_02]: But, um, yes, that's a TV show about a guy who gets the newspaper one day early.

01:01:32.766 --> 01:01:37.397
[SPEAKER_02]: And he's like, imagine doing that today.

[SPEAKER_02]: He gets a new bell.

01:02:03.348 --> 01:02:31.498
[SPEAKER_01]: We know a lot of details about Ray edition unfortunately yes, I do like the idea of that for Deadpool That's when I thought this really came alive in the last like five or six pages Okay next up babbs the black road south number two from a holy comics written by Garth NS art by Jason Burrow's last issue babbs and Izzy got real wasted and lost a ton of money and now they are on

01:02:31.478 --> 01:02:40.776
[SPEAKER_01]: the pursuit of that money into this fantasy world's version of a morder and of course because of that we're getting a bunch of opits in this issue.

01:02:41.297 --> 01:02:51.377
[SPEAKER_01]: Now the last issue I was a little critical of I enjoyed it generally but it felt like it was not quite as secretly sharp as the first bab series.

01:02:51.357 --> 01:03:07.138
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I would frankly say that continues in this issue, but also it goes back to the old guard that is, uh, and I'll just spoil the last page, which is a habit who is Sam, right?

01:03:07.118 --> 01:03:26.388
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the Sam Hobbit, who Frodo wanted Sam to suck his dick, and then Frodo got knocked into Bound Tomb, and now Sam, yeah, by-babs, and now Sam is dressing it at a tiny little Gibbsuit, and wants to kill Babs, and I was like, all right, sure, that's fine.

01:03:27.529 --> 01:03:34.560
[SPEAKER_01]: This is not what I liked about the first series, but yes, this is a Garth at his comic, so I get it.

01:03:35.300 --> 01:03:46.264
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, and it's interesting you don't like this because I feel like there's more premise to this many series There's more like we have this very particular thing we're doing But it's also a more sketchy.

01:03:46.524 --> 01:03:53.038
[SPEAKER_02]: It's more like sketch comedy Like we get that set up, which I thought was fun and funny we get some like

01:03:53.018 --> 01:04:05.998
[SPEAKER_02]: fellowship with the ring roasts we get like a drag in we get a drag in sort of like cancel culture take so but I like that part like I it's just a I think it's a different type of story

01:04:07.042 --> 01:04:08.184
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

01:04:08.605 --> 01:04:11.149
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's fun to see Garth having a good time here.

01:04:11.189 --> 01:04:20.584
[SPEAKER_00]: I grew with his album trying a little bit where I felt like he hit and the last arc kind of hit a little bit more of a fun crew made of groove.

01:04:21.145 --> 01:04:24.831
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I think this is just kind of a...

01:04:25.267 --> 01:04:35.263
[SPEAKER_00]: It's fun to see him having a good time so, you know, if this is my cup of tea, I'll keep reading until it is, so yeah, that's how you treat tea.

01:04:35.944 --> 01:04:36.865
[SPEAKER_02]: What is your cup of tea?

01:04:37.066 --> 01:04:38.588
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just a raccoon chin.

01:04:39.750 --> 01:04:40.712
[SPEAKER_00]: So we're talking about it.

01:04:40.732 --> 01:04:42.154
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I like a nice green tea.

01:04:42.254 --> 01:04:42.555
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, dear.

01:04:42.655 --> 01:04:44.217
[SPEAKER_00]: Interesting.

01:04:44.237 --> 01:04:45.599
[SPEAKER_02]: Love is the anti-oxidance.

01:04:45.900 --> 01:04:47.663
[SPEAKER_01]: Justin, you a tea guy?

01:04:48.324 --> 01:04:50.006
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, black coffee's my tea.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

01:04:51.108 --> 01:04:52.270
[SPEAKER_01]: I love a black tea too.

01:04:52.520 --> 01:05:02.004
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'll have a I'll have a black vanilla or something like that but like of course has to be but I won't choose tea I would prefer not to have tea if I don't have to you won't choose you.

01:05:02.024 --> 01:05:06.175
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I thought you were like you choose

01:05:06.813 --> 01:05:08.978
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know, definitely not an herbal tea or anything like that.

01:05:09.078 --> 01:05:14.750
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, Batman and Robin, number 30 from DC Comics written by Philip Kennedy Johnson, art by Fiko Asio.

01:05:15.071 --> 01:05:21.745
[SPEAKER_01]: This is the final issue of Philip Kennedy Johnson's run on the title, and we talked to him earlier this week on a bonus podcast.

01:05:21.766 --> 01:05:23.549
[SPEAKER_01]: So go listen to that.

01:05:24.010 --> 01:05:26.155
[SPEAKER_01]: No spoilers there for...

01:05:26.135 --> 01:05:35.348
[SPEAKER_01]: the issue, but we can get it to spoilers here, as they wrap up multiple fights with Penguin, Scarface, and a bunch of other folks who are running riot in Gotham.

01:05:35.689 --> 01:05:38.338
[SPEAKER_01]: Justin, I think you would love this one.

01:05:38.588 --> 01:05:39.209
[SPEAKER_02]: I love this.

01:05:39.789 --> 01:05:42.452
[SPEAKER_02]: The great use of Penguin in Scarface.

01:05:42.532 --> 01:05:49.020
[SPEAKER_02]: I love seeing Scarface is such a funny villain, funny rogue's member for Batman.

01:05:49.500 --> 01:05:51.402
[SPEAKER_02]: But the real star here is Damian.

01:05:51.523 --> 01:05:53.485
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like what a come up.

01:05:53.505 --> 01:05:58.350
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like Damian grows up in this in Philip Kenny Johnson's run and especially in this issue.

01:05:58.911 --> 01:06:00.833
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's such a nice

01:06:00.813 --> 01:06:04.699
[SPEAKER_02]: thing to have happened like I think we've the timing is perfect.

01:06:04.739 --> 01:06:08.404
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like we've done enough of the like bratty kid who's like should I kill him?

01:06:08.444 --> 01:06:08.745
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.

01:06:08.765 --> 01:06:09.386
[SPEAKER_02]: I used to do that.

01:06:09.967 --> 01:06:24.508
[SPEAKER_02]: That version of Damien I think I've ready to move on from and between this and having that fraction in the live show and the stuff he's doing on his Batman run is similar like changing who Damien is because it's time and I really appreciate that.

01:06:26.530 --> 01:06:27.351
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

01:06:27.591 --> 01:06:30.094
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, if I may, I have a prepared statement.

01:06:30.114 --> 01:06:30.755
[SPEAKER_00]: I'd like to read.

01:06:30.795 --> 01:06:31.816
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh boy.

01:06:31.936 --> 01:06:32.276
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

01:06:32.737 --> 01:06:38.923
[SPEAKER_00]: Alex, Alex, I just want to start by saying, I'm constantly impressed with how you curate a stack.

01:06:39.384 --> 01:06:42.908
[SPEAKER_00]: I think you do an amazing job crafting this lift.

01:06:43.729 --> 01:06:56.082
[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully someday someone studies it and congratulate you on the craftsmanship and buyers and and brace down your choices and can really get an insight to who

01:06:56.062 --> 01:07:00.110
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, all that being said, why is this here?

01:07:00.751 --> 01:07:03.796
[SPEAKER_00]: Why is this comic so far down on this list?

01:07:03.837 --> 01:07:07.604
[SPEAKER_00]: This is just, I mean, are you not moved?

01:07:08.305 --> 01:07:09.567
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you not have a heart?

01:07:10.549 --> 01:07:12.473
[SPEAKER_00]: This is an unbelievable comic.

01:07:13.895 --> 01:07:15.859
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, I was very touched and moved by this.

01:07:17.003 --> 01:07:18.486

[SPEAKER_01]: I respect and enjoy your words.

01:07:26.543 --> 01:07:27.745
[SPEAKER_01]: They are well thought out.

01:07:28.286 --> 01:07:35.822
[SPEAKER_01]: And now I'm going to go back to the first title in the stack and explain all of my individual choices leading up to this.

01:07:36.241 --> 01:07:39.204
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I love this insight.

01:07:39.485 --> 01:07:41.106
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a lot of prepared statement.

01:07:41.347 --> 01:07:42.268
[SPEAKER_01]: Oops, wow.

01:07:42.348 --> 01:07:43.229

[SPEAKER_01]: No, I'm not going to do this.

01:07:48.715 --> 01:07:50.377
[SPEAKER_01]: Why do you bring this up all the time?

01:07:50.577 --> 01:07:51.097
[SPEAKER_01]: Who cares?

01:07:51.818 --> 01:07:53.140
[SPEAKER_02]: Is the thing I love about the stack?

01:07:53.220 --> 01:07:54.821

01:07:58.125 --> 01:07:58.345
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

01:07:58.886 --> 01:08:03.531
[SPEAKER_01]: No, and I didn't get to talk about this one, so there you go.

[SPEAKER_01]: A little filly on finishing this off.

01:08:13.269 --> 01:08:15.453
[SPEAKER_01]: And little, little things.

01:08:15.473 --> 01:08:17.677
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all to be cost.

01:08:17.837 --> 01:08:22.305
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is a, this is a great kind of end to such a great arc.

01:08:22.686 --> 01:08:23.207
[SPEAKER_00]: And.

01:08:23.187 --> 01:08:25.450

[SPEAKER_01]: I was very touched and moved by her plan and she all can number four from Marvel written by Stephanie Phillips art by Emilio Lasso and Lisa I think in this issue Jack of Hearts is back and he has been brainwashed

01:08:41.513 --> 01:08:44.198
[SPEAKER_01]: by the folks who want him to fight.

01:08:44.719 --> 01:08:46.482
[SPEAKER_01]: She Hulk is former lover.

01:08:47.403 --> 01:08:57.801
[SPEAKER_01]: Meanwhile, there is a trial going on for a dude that she Hulk helped, who's been accused of murder, ending in a big twist by the end of the issue.

01:08:57.781 --> 01:09:00.547
[SPEAKER_01]: I really like the series, I'm really enjoying it.

01:09:01.048 --> 01:09:03.513
[SPEAKER_01]: It really gets to the heart of She-Hulk.

01:09:04.535 --> 01:09:07.120
[SPEAKER_01]: Great character, great characterization throughout.

01:09:07.561 --> 01:09:09.365
[SPEAKER_01]: And I love the use of Jack of Hearts in here.

01:09:09.405 --> 01:09:12.572
[SPEAKER_01]: That relationship was so good in the last run on She-Hulk.

01:09:13.013 --> 01:09:17.562
[SPEAKER_01]: So it was very happy to see it back and happy to see how they play around with it.

01:09:19.162 --> 01:09:21.989
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I love the twist at the end.

01:09:22.009 --> 01:09:29.607
[SPEAKER_00]: I have such a good time with she-hulk in this kind of planet hall.

01:09:29.627 --> 01:09:31.652
[SPEAKER_02]: Cause you've been there for a while there, right?

01:09:31.970 --> 01:09:32.671
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.

01:09:32.932 --> 01:09:35.557
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just think it's such a great use of She-Hulk.

01:09:36.619 --> 01:09:41.528
[SPEAKER_00]: There's just the arts, I believe, well, the action is fantastic.

01:09:41.848 --> 01:09:49.422
[SPEAKER_00]: This is just a blast in the half, and also just kind of such a cool thing to bring back Jack in this way.

01:09:49.522 --> 01:09:52.628
[SPEAKER_00]: So I can't wait to see how this all kind of unfold.

01:09:52.608 --> 01:09:56.675
[SPEAKER_00]: But again the art is just so badass and I'm really enjoying this.

01:09:57.456 --> 01:10:04.969
[SPEAKER_02]: I love this as well I thought this was a great Great to bring in the relationship and have it be Her problem.

01:10:05.490 --> 01:10:12.422
[SPEAKER_02]: I like her and her her bud have the such a breakout couple of scenes where they're talking about what it's like to

01:10:12.402 --> 01:10:16.814
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, have emotions, but also go through a bunch of shit and how it makes it different.

01:10:17.576 --> 01:10:24.313
[SPEAKER_02]: And then the twist at the ending, the arts great, so much sword, giant sword stuff, a lot of reflections.

01:10:25.175 --> 01:10:28.825
[SPEAKER_02]: Who needs to be here when you can check how you're, check your look in a giant sword.

01:10:30.188 --> 01:10:48.275

[SPEAKER_01]: Pete, you're pumping your fist because you love brutality and you love watching people die in real life and in comics.

01:10:55.946 --> 01:10:56.386
[SPEAKER_01]: Take it away.

01:10:56.647 --> 01:10:57.428
[SPEAKER_01]: No.

01:10:57.408 --> 01:10:59.792
[SPEAKER_00]: Just just comics, but thank you for your time.

01:10:59.812 --> 01:11:05.482
[SPEAKER_01]: If anybody's not watching on the video, there's an entire wall of faces of death and VHS is behind Pete right now.

01:11:05.502 --> 01:11:05.703
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

01:11:06.083 --> 01:11:07.205
[SPEAKER_01]: Those are hard to check down.

01:11:07.225 --> 01:11:07.366
[SPEAKER_01]: There.

01:11:07.386 --> 01:11:11.212
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it does one of us run a trivia section that is obsessed with the dead people.

01:11:12.354 --> 01:11:12.875
[SPEAKER_02]: Any of us here?

01:11:14.057 --> 01:11:16.321
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, that would be weird.

01:11:16.482 --> 01:11:17.243
[SPEAKER_01]: That would be weird.

01:11:17.423 --> 01:11:20.749
[SPEAKER_01]: If that was, yeah, we should probably cut it out.

01:11:20.729 --> 01:11:42.433
[SPEAKER_00]: we should get a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of

01:11:42.413 --> 01:11:52.746
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was really enjoying the revenge area of this, so I was nice to have something that I could read and enjoy, not be too scared of.

01:11:52.766 --> 01:11:55.089
[SPEAKER_02]: It really lives in the revenge area, I would argue.

01:11:55.349 --> 01:12:03.780
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's great bloody, I like the, especially the scam that our main character runs on the badass bodyguard, dude.

01:12:03.760 --> 01:12:22.680
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it gets very hastily, so that's basically a frank castle person and he gets wrecked pretty fast This story is dark, but each issue sort of honors the horror that we went through in the first issue in a great way by giving us the catharsis of murder

01:12:24.027 --> 01:12:35.268
[SPEAKER_01]: Supergirl number 10 from DC Comics by Sophie Campbell, Art by Joe Kenonis, and this issue Supergirl has been tricked by some pink kryptonite into dating who she thinks is her crush.

01:12:35.789 --> 01:12:40.678
[SPEAKER_01]: Meanwhile, Lita Luther is trying to help her out and track her down.

01:12:41.159 --> 01:12:42.441
[SPEAKER_01]: What do you guys think about this one?

01:12:44.243 --> 01:13:04.800
[SPEAKER_02]: uh... i the jokin on his art is is awesome here the tone of this book is very different from any of the other comics here in the stack that has like romance angle meets superhero feels like uh... i don't know uh... more super focused riverdale or something like that so that's a nice uh... shake up in the stack

01:13:05.557 --> 01:13:23.295
[SPEAKER_00]: yeah cool great art uh... just love the style of this uh... you know uh... who are almost falling for the kind of pink crypton i trapped her friend saver fun team book i i like the friend angle for super girl i think that's great

01:13:23.275 --> 01:13:38.502
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, I'm enjoying this car and last but not least, Venom 254 from Marvel Written by All-Uing Art by Carlos Gomez in this issue Venom and Mary Jane go to to to with Madam Bask who is in some giant power armor.

01:13:39.905 --> 01:13:42.870
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought as usual this was a ton of fun.

01:13:42.890 --> 01:13:44.052
[SPEAKER_01]: There's just so many.

01:13:44.032 --> 01:14:09.043
[SPEAKER_01]: Really enjoyable moments throughout this fight not a mask really coming for venom a surprise reveal About the characters we thought some characters we thought were dead, and I love Maybe they've done this in previous issues, but maybe not as explicitly the way that Mary Jade exists inside the venom suit They cut into these black panels where she just kind of hanging there and I was like, oh, yeah

01:14:09.023 --> 01:14:29.774
[SPEAKER_01]: thought about that and that leads to this really fun moment where she's being held face down by that of mass and she's like, oh god, I can't turn around and that's like, I made it cool, I can turn around and what are you talking about so they continue to find fun ways of iterating venom in this series.

01:14:29.934 --> 01:14:31.957
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just having a blast reading this book.

01:14:31.977 --> 01:14:35.402
[SPEAKER_02]: Same and that's why if I ever meet the bastard.

01:14:35.534 --> 01:14:37.658
[SPEAKER_02]: who put this at the bottom of the stack.

01:14:38.579 --> 01:14:39.982
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, kill.

01:14:40.002 --> 01:14:41.785
[SPEAKER_02]: That's my devil on my shoulder.

01:14:42.627 --> 01:14:43.869
[SPEAKER_02]: Is that motherfucker?

01:14:44.290 --> 01:14:45.772
[SPEAKER_01]: Good thing we don't know what it is.

01:14:46.113 --> 01:14:47.375
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, exactly, God.

01:14:47.435 --> 01:14:53.907
[SPEAKER_02]: I think, unfortunately, I heard a cat leaves this on your doorstep every week, right Alex?

01:14:53.927 --> 01:14:54.107
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

01:14:54.528 --> 01:14:55.309
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what you said.

01:14:55.630 --> 01:14:56.231
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's a gift.

01:14:56.251 --> 01:14:58.555
[SPEAKER_01]: I actually get the stack on Tuesdays.

01:14:59.193 --> 01:15:07.905
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, wow, it's a great early edition and what that's what you're doing with it is just having us talk about it on let's say Interesting in the TV show early edition.

01:15:07.925 --> 01:15:09.367
[SPEAKER_02]: He saves people's lives.

01:15:09.627 --> 01:15:14.413
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no, I'm just having you guys do it again I know I don't know what it is, but you're hitting your lines.

01:15:14.874 --> 01:15:18.619
[SPEAKER_01]: It's mostly for my purposes because otherwise like I'd be totally off script here

01:15:18.818 --> 01:15:20.221
[SPEAKER_02]: were Olympians in a lot of ways.

01:15:20.763 --> 01:15:21.906
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought this was fantastic.

01:15:21.946 --> 01:15:24.753
[SPEAKER_02]: I love every issue, especially the physicality stuff you're talking about.

01:15:25.234 --> 01:15:29.564
[SPEAKER_02]: At one point, Mary Jane gets knocked out for a second and then I'm like, hey, hello, knock knock.

01:15:29.945 --> 01:15:30.627
[SPEAKER_02]: Are you okay?

01:15:30.827 --> 01:15:33.975
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, that's such a cute relationship they have.

01:15:35.035 --> 01:15:39.843
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm surprising how much I'm enjoying MJ as Venom.

01:15:39.883 --> 01:15:42.889
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's such a, at first I was like, what the fuck are we doing?

01:15:42.909 --> 01:15:50.822
[SPEAKER_00]: But really impressed with how this is working out and the kind of tone of it, it brings in a newness to Venom, which is great.

01:15:51.524 --> 01:15:55.170
[SPEAKER_00]: Also, there's a moment early in the comic.

01:15:55.150 --> 01:16:05.352
[SPEAKER_00]: where they're just talking, they just kind of remarked that it's a warm spring day and I'm like, god damn, I hope I make it because it is fucking cold as fuck outside and I am sick of it.

01:16:05.833 --> 01:16:11.826
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, this is just such a great comic so well done, fun last panel reveal.

01:16:11.806 --> 01:16:13.228
[SPEAKER_00]: this is a blast.

01:16:14.229 --> 01:16:15.511
