[SPEAKER_03]: What is up everybody, welcome to Comic Book Club, I'm Alex, I'm Justin.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm Pete, and we are coming to you live for a couple of places on the internet.
[SPEAKER_03]: We are live on Facebook, YouTube, Twitch, Pete's favorite for all these gaming needs.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're live on Instagram, LinkedIn of course, if you want to hire any of us for, I don't know like AI positions or anything like that, that would be great.
[SPEAKER_05]: I think we should remorse specifically what positions we want and our linkedin proposal.
[SPEAKER_05]: I feel like just as he for general works.
[SPEAKER_05]: For jobs?
[SPEAKER_05]: Dicey.
[SPEAKER_02]: Could you forget to say kick?
[SPEAKER_02]: Are we no longer working?
[SPEAKER_03]: No, we're on kick.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're on kick.
[SPEAKER_03]: We haven't kick.
[SPEAKER_03]: This week.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay Pete.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're also maybe a little louder.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe a little louder.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, you know, there's ads on there.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you want ad free versions of our podcast on all the podcast we do patreon.com slash comic book club You can hang out with us all day long on discord and just like chalax man.
[SPEAKER_05]: You know, that's pretty cool.
[SPEAKER_05]: I love the combination of those two words It makes me feel so much more comfortable It's kick a soccer platform.
[SPEAKER_05]: Are we secretly like holdings over that in the final way?
[SPEAKER_05]: I need this.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not a drink enough to be in hoogin
[SPEAKER_03]: No, I don't think no.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think it's status.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, exactly.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think it's specifically a live stream platform for soccer I think it's a gaming platform like Twitch, but like even more hardcore.
[SPEAKER_03]: I might have that wrong Yeah, not the same old dude.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's like a weird dark web I forgot to mention for us.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm selling your fresh.
[SPEAKER_05]: Is that okay?
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm pretty sure we have amazing guests we got to get to right we do and we are not going to sell their flesh that they do have a very spooky scary comic book about selling flesh That's not what it's about at all.
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll get it right.
[SPEAKER_03]: They are the creators behind IDW's operation iron coffin, which is going to be hitting stores on July 8 But final order cutoff is June 1st So this is right on time to hear all about it ladies gentlemen Kenny Porter and Tyrell can it
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, welcome.
[SPEAKER_05]: Merry Christmas.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, hey.
[SPEAKER_03]: Kenny, great to see you again.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tyrell, great to seeing you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Thanks so much for coming and talking about this book.
[SPEAKER_03]: This book is great.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's a ton of fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: We've got to have this.
[SPEAKER_03]: Look at it.
[SPEAKER_03]: We won't spoil too much here.
[SPEAKER_03]: But the concept is out there, which is that during World War II, Dracula is dropped in the iron coffin of the title into a train that is full of Nazis that are breeding monsters.
[SPEAKER_03]: And he's got a fight his way to the front.
[SPEAKER_03]: pretty much I mean there's more that happens obviously over the course of the series but that's enough of a high concept hook Kenny this is probably for you but like was that was that the thing like right Dracula versus Nazis and then board to way back from there or where did this come from?
[SPEAKER_04]: There's actually the original first of them dropping the coffin like a bomb.
[SPEAKER_04]: Like I've just grabbed it till like I called Tyrell and I was like, here are the pitch pages.
[SPEAKER_04]: Bomber flies in.
[SPEAKER_04]: Drops of bomb.
[SPEAKER_04]: We zoom in.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's not a bomb.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's a metal coffin.
[SPEAKER_04]: Coffin goes through back of train.
[SPEAKER_04]: Smash is Nazis.
[SPEAKER_04]: Dracula comes out.
[SPEAKER_04]: He was like, that's a bomb.
[SPEAKER_04]: What's the story though, Kenny?
[SPEAKER_04]: And I was like, crap.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's the story.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, so I only thought of the teaser trailer, but then from there we worked out like the emotional journey and everything goes from, but it was the visual first that kind of hooked me with it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, so Tyrell, once you heard that visual, what did you start leading into?
[SPEAKER_03]: What really grabbed you about this idea?
[SPEAKER_03]: Because you look like a very different looking Dracula here, you definitely, there's some other designs.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know how much you want to talk about, particularly in the first issue that come to play as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that initial image is really striking right of this this bomb dropping down, but also the idea of if him emerging from this coffin like dangerous weapon, just ready to take on all these evil evil bad guys and I've always been a huge Dracula fan and so that's why I was immediately saying to Kenny what's the story here it can't just be somebody else's Dracula you know this got to be our Dracula and so I wanted our Dracula to feel really
[SPEAKER_00]: dangerous and sleek and old, but also like, um, still have that, that, uh, lure that Dracula has throughout the novel and throw the things where you almost kind of construct people in.
[SPEAKER_05]: Um, Kenny, I started interrupt you, but that guy's do it, right?
[SPEAKER_05]: I, what you're saying, like the sharpness of the eyes and the, the forward motion, like a train that Dracula is exhibiting here is so, it makes him so dynamic.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, we wanted it to be a dynamic, dangerous character, but then have the ability to be expressive in these other moments too.
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I tried to work as much of all those different elements in the design as I could.
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know, with the long hair and the long coat stuff that's going to accentuate his actions, but also his stillness.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I was really impressed why we're talking about the art, the, you know, for an older gentleman, he's very fast and powerful, so it's always great to see those action sequences, but like the, you know, it's almost like an anime or manga kind of a style to the fighting, which was so badass and fun to see.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, we're mixing up a lot of things in this, but man, a fight scenes were really spectacular.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you so much and definitely anime and manga are big influences on both Kenny and I and so I think that there's a visual element that that comes from those types of media But also maybe some pacing and story type elements to you know, we're both fans of things like the guyver and you know Dragon Balls Z and the vampire hunter deep blood lust and you know ninja scroll So we wanted those cool villains and we wanted that but also that banter that happens between them
[SPEAKER_03]: getting given there has been so many stories about vampires and Dracula in particular what for you was the inn on the character there.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know you touched on this a little bit but like what makes him different so you feel like you're not just reiterating the same thing.
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, totally, yeah, that's a great question.
[SPEAKER_04]: That was really key to us doing this take, because we wanted to make sure that we weren't just telling another Dracula story, but like Tyrell said, our Dracula story.
[SPEAKER_04]: So I'm a huge fan of the original novel, and there's a point at the end, which spoilers, for anybody who has a print the novel or no Dracula story, he don't make it at the end of the video.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: Um, when they kill Dracula at the end of the book, Mena Harper, who he's been tormenting and pursuing notices that when his head is separated from his body, his face changes and has almost like a more human and content look on it.
[SPEAKER_04]: If that always really captured my imagination.
[SPEAKER_04]: So I started thinking about all these stories where he gets resurrected.
[SPEAKER_04]: He just kind of comes back and there's no real reason behind it.
[SPEAKER_04]: So in this we want to do include a real like Faustine bargain.
[SPEAKER_04]: about why he's coming back what his mission is and throughout the story we'll see him go on this emotional emotional journey of redemption and dealing with the horrible things that he's done because we don't let him off the hook like it isn't just like he's a good guy now it's like hi it was a monster like literally and figuratively and now there's a bigger monster that's out there that humanity is birth so we we juxtapose that against it while he's dealing with this bargain
[SPEAKER_05]: Uh-oh, moment when he realizes that things aren't exactly the way they were back in the novel.
[SPEAKER_04]: So that was really important in the story as well as juxtaposed like what's the difference between like a classic universal monster which he's arguably the most popular one versus a man-made monster like the Nazis back in World War II?
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, what is it about trains?
[SPEAKER_05]: I feel like we love trains, and with their, yeah, they are cool, but I feel like people don't like to travel on trains, but with stories on trains, what's going on here with us?
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't know, we built this society around like other countries haven't right.
[SPEAKER_04]: They, they really invested in the rail system.
[SPEAKER_04]: At least in this, we get to live out our fantasy of how cool trains are with dreadful.
[SPEAKER_04]: And not these just shreds on it, like a Spawn Indiana Jones crossover.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's a thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know, I was just going to ask you, sorry to stay on the train bent, but how do you make sure that it stays fresh?
[SPEAKER_03]: when you're setting things, I mean, I know the train cars do change a little bit, but like it's a very confined space as you may be aware.
[SPEAKER_03]: So how do you make sure it stays visually interesting?
[SPEAKER_00]: It's really tricky to find that balance because we want to make sure people feel the kind of urgency that you have in an enclosed setting like a train or, you know, say you're trapped in a building, you know, those are the kind of movies and games and stuff you reference a lot.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that
[SPEAKER_00]: Part of it is we do have some cutaways and stuff, flashbacks, and whatnot, but then also when I'm also doing the colors on this book, which is kind of a different thing for me, and one of the things I try to use is color, and so different characters might have different colors associated with them, and as they encounter say a new villain, maybe that car or the train has not only a different look to it, but a slightly different color palette.
[SPEAKER_00]: Another thing is thinking about
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, at the very beginning of the book, we show the whole, the kind of the whole train in a few shots to kind of make sure that people understand the scale of what we're working with here and then I could also, there's a spread where I show basically all the different cool cars we're going to end up in as the series progresses and so I think revealing some of the geography early on helps and then finding those little
[SPEAKER_00]: you know touches you can do with color and with with design of each car to make it feel different.
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of creative licenses too right I mean it is a giant train so the cars are much bigger so we could put a lot more in there and then once I'm in a car you know space might get a little bit funky sometimes but all in the name of good action and fun storytelling.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah I don't really have a question I just wanted to hype up the book a little bit more um I just love the
[SPEAKER_02]: As far as first issues go, like this one did such a great job of like giving you story, but not being like, let's explain who Dracula is.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know what I mean?
[SPEAKER_02]: Like we got things quickly and it really built nicely, you know, as the kind of intensity turns up.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you drop a sick last panel and I'm just like, at the end of it, like, I can't wait for the next issue.
[SPEAKER_02]: We've heard a lot of first issues, so I just wanted to say congrats.
[SPEAKER_02]: It does such a nice job of grabbing you, pulling you in, and then kind of really turning it up at the end and getting you excited for more.
[SPEAKER_03]: Not to contradict Pete, but I did have one question off the first issue.
[SPEAKER_03]: Who is Dracula?
[SPEAKER_04]: I feel like you did a good job of explaining what was in the book.
[SPEAKER_04]: I was a little lost.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's got a great mustache.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's all you can do.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the important thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's all you really need to do.
[SPEAKER_03]: People think track them.
[SPEAKER_03]: They think of mustache.
[SPEAKER_03]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_03]: First thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: The first thing I think of when I think of Dracula is that every week on our show, we have it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And this is true.
[SPEAKER_03]: What those weird transition.
[SPEAKER_03]: But.
[SPEAKER_03]: We have a professional shaft down in New Orleans named Brett McGriss.
[SPEAKER_03]: He works in an amazing place called Shift.
[SPEAKER_03]: You should be able to visit if you're in New Orleans.
[SPEAKER_03]: And he decides to cocktail based around some of the people we're talking to were their project.
[SPEAKER_03]: So this week he made the only good dotc is a blood-drained dead one.
[SPEAKER_03]: OK, all right, yeah, all right.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is Rye Whiskey, Cherry Laker.
[SPEAKER_03]: to give it the little red of the blood, sweet vermouds, agastera bitters, and some chocolate bitters as well.
[SPEAKER_03]: I assume that's because Germans like chocolate and the Nazis, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: But you take all the ingredients for them into the mixing glass, stir some more straight into a giant highball with a giant piece of ice shape like a vampire bat.
[SPEAKER_03]: or just a big ice cube or ball or whatever you have on hand, but a giant piece of ice is best.
[SPEAKER_03]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_03]: That was wonderful.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's like all things I have in my bar and that's absolutely fantastic.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's probably one of my hell it is.
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, there you go, the cocktail for Operation Iron coffin.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, can I do what I ask you because you actually have another book that I believe is coming out tomorrow called Superman Father of tomorrow of a DC Comics.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is the first of a new slate of Elseworld's books.
[SPEAKER_03]: What was, did they approach you?
[SPEAKER_03]: let me take a step back.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've been very curious about these because like all three of them seem like different riffs on what if somebody else was in the super bad's baby rocket?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like we've got super girl and baby cowl jabbed in there and one of them.
[SPEAKER_03]: In yours we've got
[SPEAKER_03]: jabbed to there but what do they present you with what are they really like what if this other person came to earth instead of canal or was it more open than that?
[SPEAKER_04]: It was it was just do you want to do an elseworld's book?
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh yes, fair and they were like what do you want to do and I was like who doesn't have one right now?
[SPEAKER_04]: And they were like please no more Batman that I was like fine.
[SPEAKER_04]: Good on me and so it was just one of the ideas that I pitched so
[SPEAKER_04]: I had no idea about any of the other elsewhere's books earning, but my pitch was essentially I wanted to do like a Tom Strong, like Reed Richards take on Superman, like leaning more into the science aspect, to have him be a super scientist, kind of like the old Docs savage, like pulp stuff.
[SPEAKER_04]: And then, as my editor and I were talking about, we're like, oh, what if it wasn't him though?
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, what if it was his dad?
[SPEAKER_04]: Because his dad was a scientist.
[SPEAKER_04]: And from there, that's where we spun out like, what does the whole DC universe look like when there's a superman who lands, who has like horrible survivors guilt, isn't an adult and approaches problems more from an analytical side.
[SPEAKER_04]: So like, rest assured, he still punches dudes.
[SPEAKER_04]: But his, his approach is way more like,
[SPEAKER_04]: A read Richards or Tony Stark of like, what can I build to help make sure either this doesn't happen again or nobody gets hurt.
[SPEAKER_04]: So that was a really cool and Buddhist to like build the universe around and then to I always love with the elsewhere stuff like how the ripple effect changes everything so I'm really excited for people to read the first issue.
[SPEAKER_04]: I can't wait till they read and see what other crazy shit we did because it goes into a direction that I don't think anybody's going to expect and I think it's going to have some cool action figures if they make a
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm really excited about what we got to do with it.
[SPEAKER_03]: What do you think the... We do actually talk about this a lot on the show, or at least I talk about it a lot.
[SPEAKER_03]: What do you think the difference is between else worlds and what if?
[SPEAKER_04]: Is there any?
[SPEAKER_04]: Um, I think what if really leans on the, you know, everything happened up to a point.
[SPEAKER_04]: And it's just this one tiny little moment thing that's different.
[SPEAKER_04]: Whereas else worlds, it feels like a bigger kind of swing.
[SPEAKER_05]: Mm-hmm.
[SPEAKER_04]: Um, yeah, because if you think of like a Marvel, what if sort of thing, it's like,
[SPEAKER_04]: you know, what if I did, this came up recently today, like, what if the Avengers helped in annihilation?
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, there's, that's like a popular one.
[SPEAKER_04]: But with elsewhere, it's usually, it can be a lot more open.
[SPEAKER_04]: Because I also did that one DC Macquater.
[SPEAKER_04]: It was a complete different alternate universe where there are Mac pilots instead of traditional superheroes.
[SPEAKER_04]: So that sort of core, it can either be something more like, what if somebody else was in this position or what it fundamentally, the whole universe works differently?
[SPEAKER_04]: So without being in charge of anything, that's the best guess you can give someone who's not officially on the payroll and is just a freelancer.
[SPEAKER_04]: That's probably the best answer how I would sort it in my head if I was pitching for them.
[SPEAKER_03]: And in this book, since he lands at Martin Pocken's farm, are we going to see them swaddling him in a crib at any point?
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, there's some weird adult diaper stuff.
[SPEAKER_04]: Nice.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, it's picking it up for sure.
[SPEAKER_04]: He's way more of like an adopted brother to them, which is also a whole, complete different dynamic where my and Pocken are just their John and Martha to him, like there is adopted brother and sister.
[SPEAKER_04]: And that that relationship plays a lot in how he makes decisions and eventually why he becomes Superman.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, very excited to check that out.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's get back to Operation Iron Coffin.
[SPEAKER_03]: So as I mentioned, the final order cutoff is June 1.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's going to hit stores on July 8th.
[SPEAKER_03]: Obviously we talked about a lot about the book already, and it's still a ways off.
[SPEAKER_03]: But what else do you want to tease if anything?
[SPEAKER_04]: sure.
[SPEAKER_04]: So one thing that I think I'll tease is like I said, this has even though the visual hook is incredible, like we weren't really hard just as much to make the emotional stuff really heavy.
[SPEAKER_04]: So the violence in it is top notch.
[SPEAKER_04]: Like Tyrell goes like full stop.
[SPEAKER_04]: Truly it's insane.
[SPEAKER_04]: It's so good every time I saw a page my mouth like dropped like a text-avery cartoon How good it looks but we did the same amount of working care on the emotional stuff There's a really horrific sort of scene where Dracula realizes
[SPEAKER_04]: what the Faustian bargain has gotten him, and it's a very emotional quiet somber scene between him and some other characters, and I'm just as excited for people to see Tyrell do that stuff in multiple issues as well as the violent stuff.
[SPEAKER_04]: And also like he's not just going to fight regular Nazis, there's some cool metal gear and vampire Hunter D inspired villains that plays really heavily into the occult and super science like myth around World War II like we both love Pope sort of stories so we injected some of that kind of Hellboy sort of thing in it where we played up a bit of the of the
[SPEAKER_04]: myth and legend around it.
[SPEAKER_04]: The only spot we didn't do that with, which was really important to us, was all of the realistic horrors and tragedies of the war.
[SPEAKER_04]: Like we very much respect how much of a horrible tragedy it was that everything that happened with the concentration camps and the Jewish people.
[SPEAKER_04]: Like we wanted to make sure that none of that had any of the fantastical elements.
[SPEAKER_04]: All that's reserved for the crazy baddies and stuff.
[SPEAKER_04]: So we did some fun research on some of the rumors, because some of them, I think everybody, some people will spot some of the supernatural rumors from World War II that we play on.
[SPEAKER_04]: There's a couple that don't get as much play that we expanded on.
[SPEAKER_04]: Like the train is based on a real gold train, they'll miss it.
[SPEAKER_04]: I want to run that time and then there's a couple of like science fiction, you sort of things of like rumored weapons they were going to work on.
[SPEAKER_04]: I think that also leads into a turtle that designed the train because you pulled stuff from that too.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, it's based on a theoretical train as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: This super size Nazi train, and I kind of just made it look even more dangerous than I thought it initially looked, but it's been, you know, it's like, this is one of those comics that is a blast for us to make.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I feel like it's perfect for comic readers, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: I really think that comic readers are more media literate and more abreast of like different kinds of movies and different kinds of books and this sort of pulls together so many of those loves and we do it in a way that only comics can do it and that's what has been exciting for me working on it and I think and I hope that that's what's going to be exciting for readers is that it feels very uniquely comics not just in the concept but in the execution.
[SPEAKER_05]: Awesome.
[SPEAKER_05]: You're talking about how you had it like dig deeper to find these more occult Stranger things have been covered.
[SPEAKER_05]: Where is there still a source of like weird world where to shit to find?
[SPEAKER_05]: I feel like it's been the most like scoured thing for all genre
[SPEAKER_04]: I just had my nose plastered up against the monitor and was reading a hundred lines of code like the matrix.
[SPEAKER_04]: I just kept looking up, I'd mainly try to look at things that were not completely explained so that it was just rumors that it was like, oh, nobody's ever done anything with that.
[SPEAKER_05]: Like, I'll take that and kind of spin it out into something.
[SPEAKER_04]: So that's where we side found some stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: Cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, it definitely comes through in the book, which is great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody should pick it.
[SPEAKER_03]: But Kenny Tyrell, thank you so much for coming on.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's looking forward to riding this train all the way to the end.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, thank you for having us.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'd be excited to talk to you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Have a good night.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I cut him off.
[SPEAKER_03]: There we go.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sorry.
[SPEAKER_05]: He didn't say take it easy, but he could have said anything.
[SPEAKER_05]: He could have said sleazy.
[SPEAKER_05]: He could have said evil.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, no.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're really bad.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know I just said this, but again, operation iron coffin from IDW.
[SPEAKER_03]: F.O.C.
[SPEAKER_03]: is June 1st and the book hits on July 8th.
[SPEAKER_03]: check it out.
[SPEAKER_03]: That book it's all right.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's like an iron coffin.
[SPEAKER_05]: Mayu.
[SPEAKER_05]: And Pete, you bought an iron coffin to sleep in because of this book, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, definitely.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just a it's cooler in the summertime.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yep, that's one of the main things I would say about sleeping inside iron is it's cooler in the summertime.
[SPEAKER_05]: I will say it's cool until it's very not.
[SPEAKER_05]: Then it's literally another.
[SPEAKER_03]: and you don't actually as always cool is you are audience questions
[SPEAKER_03]: And for audience questions, all you got to do is drop a question in the comments and we will get to it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It can be that absolutely anything in the meantime Well waiting for those comments and questions and complaints probably to come in just a couple of complaints It's a couple of landlords just put a bit Let us know we'll get to them What are you guys drinking Pete?
[SPEAKER_02]: What are you drinking?
[SPEAKER_02]: A little log we need to stay time, you know stay time somewhere Nice little drink What are we going to get the summer beves in Pete?
[SPEAKER_05]: Been really on that day time for a while
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's true.
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you have a 5,000 pack?
[SPEAKER_02]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're cheaper bulk.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, uh, you get the beer truck pulled up to the Lepage residents again, a place we don't know about.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm drinking a boulevardier.
[SPEAKER_02]: What does that mean?
[SPEAKER_05]: It's a, uh, like a bourbon agronia, essentially.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hmm.
[SPEAKER_05]: Sounds very good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe I should start drinking again.
[SPEAKER_05]: That was a genuine thirst right there, I saw it on your face, and yeah, phony, you can get the phony version out.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I don't know about this.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know, there's a place called BuzzFREE in my neighborhood that I passed by and I'm like, I feel very dubious about this whole concept.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like you have a bottle of bourbon, quote unquote, if it has no alcohol, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_05]: What do you, what do you then know?
[SPEAKER_05]: It's lying to you.
[SPEAKER_05]: It is strange to do your replicating something that is very the opposite, but yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: That is the idea.
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, this from Schoicler, what are your favorite versions of Dracula?
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it definitely, this book is up there.
[SPEAKER_02]: This was a lot of fun.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was a cool Dracula.
[SPEAKER_02]: I definitely liked this kind of take on it.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I thought it was an interesting, you know, I've seen a lot of different versions of Dracula but I thought this would fun to ride with for a while for sure.
[SPEAKER_05]: I agree with you.
[SPEAKER_05]: I really enjoyed the book, but what do you think Dracula has protagonist is always a weird.
[SPEAKER_05]: I feel like, yeah, it's hard to make it.
[SPEAKER_05]: He's such a good, these are one of the ultimate villains to the dragon.
[SPEAKER_05]: He wrote, it's a little tricky.
[SPEAKER_05]: But I think this book does a great job of it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, there was we've had them on a couple of times now, but Matt Wagner and Kelly Jones is Dracula retelling, which doesn't necessarily make him into a hero, but it does give a lot of backstory.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like that's very interesting for people, you know, to not necessarily try to humanize him, but figure out why the monster became the monster.
[SPEAKER_03]: This doesn't necessarily do that, or at least it doesn't necessarily do that to the first issue, but
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I, not my favorite version of Dracula, necessarily, but Kelly Jones's Dracula is very cool.
[SPEAKER_05]: Very good.
[SPEAKER_05]: Dracula dead in loving it.

[SPEAKER_05]: I mean that
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, Batman vs. Dracula has been a fun comic books and also the Batman and the Animated 2 is a fun Dracula kind of team upish.
[SPEAKER_05]: I want to make catch all.
[SPEAKER_05]: I was going to say one more American vampire is a book that not necessarily Dracula, but something that seeing Raphael Albuquerque's art.
[SPEAKER_03]: more so recently has been reminding me of how great that series was yeah you just brought up Derek saying chat count chocolate is the best not also not exactly Dracula but I'll give a shout out to cereal the book from a hoi comics by Mark Russell which took a more serious take of those cereal mascots
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought you were just going to shout out cereal.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was all about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: How, yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, yeah.
[SPEAKER_04]: How is this a Dracula for cereal?
[SPEAKER_04]: So you know, cereal's going to get into without his butt, his teeth.
[SPEAKER_03]: Scratch it at the window and be like, give me your lucky charm.
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... this is from crispy cartoons anyone make it up to jack Kirby way yet i don't know if you guys know about this but uh... yes you are wearing a curby t-shirt that is not a streetbeet yes true and uh... streetbeet streetbeet
[SPEAKER_03]: street peat street beat uh... overstock uh... so jack or me way if you don't know they briefly renamed the corner of delancy and ethics i believe in new york as jack or be way last year when fantastic for first steps came out everybody loved it was like just do it just make it permanent um... so they did they didn't actually read in the street but they put an honorary street sign there there was a big ceremony last week
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, it's great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Actually, I haven't been down there, but if you do go down and it's exactly where Jack Kirby would want it on the same corner as a two story tall McDonald's Um, so which he loved he loved that can you stop changing that while we're talking about the thing
[SPEAKER_03]: I know you want to move out to the next thing, but we're still reading the response to this comment.
[SPEAKER_02]: The Kirby museum was down there where the street was.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, they have an exhibit going.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's not the American Jewish museum because that's not what it is.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like some sort of Jewish museum that a Kirby exhibit going on right now until November.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to say an honor of the street sign.
[SPEAKER_05]: I believe that was a pop-up they had down there and then they bounced around.
[SPEAKER_05]: I talked to I forget it's name, but the guy behind that, Nat Towson will know because I was talking to him with him about how the Kirby museum has gone through so many different phases, but like just still there's such an interest in them They're just always finding new avenues including Jack Kirby way too.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought maybe we were gonna get a recipe for boiling gloves from Nat Towson from Nat
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... keeps that that's a time on her that's a thousand family uh... i got to tell you i am so eager for not to die so we can get that recipe in the nat tells in museum that's going to be a beautiful part of the exhibit so i just clipped out i'm so eager for not to die
[SPEAKER_03]: Dirk Middard says we'll be covering Spider-Man noir in Marvel vision just and I briefly talked about this and I was gonna bring it up to you guys later I'd like to You guys Yeah, I love that Oh, I was going to be either I think it's good.
[SPEAKER_02]: Should we do two only one and black and white one a regular?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, great We should be old old to act old-timey accents and one in regular.
[SPEAKER_03]: I watch this show.
[SPEAKER_03]: See Yeah
[SPEAKER_05]: people will love that.
[SPEAKER_05]: Except for us.
[SPEAKER_05]: We'll hate each other by the end.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, that's not bad.
[SPEAKER_05]: I feel like this show is going to be capital W weird either way.
[SPEAKER_05]: Either it's weird good or weird bad.
[SPEAKER_05]: And that's fine.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think what Nicholas Cage project weird.
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you talking about?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes, I'm saying he's got it on lock.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've seen it.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I can tell you don't take
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Adam again, yes.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's weird.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I, I thought it was weird positive.
[SPEAKER_03]: I aired on the side of just because I was like, this is got a goofy.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've had a good time.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was very serapticiously mentioning in our comic book club discord a couple of like a week back after I'd seen it till like Joe Lee to there who likes cheeseier stuff that I think show like this
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not all up Batman 66, but it's definitely like adjacent enough that I'm surprised that it's on the air in 2026 because it also, it starts off at a place where like, oh, okay, you're very effectively aping, filled the wire.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then it just becomes more and more Nicolas Cage as it goes.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, like he just...
[SPEAKER_03]: you can feel the rest of the you can feel up like pushing his hand through the show do you feel like the people when they're making it they're like we can't resist him he's 100% what it like it's this whole thing is this insane gravitational pull while you're watching the show i think like not to spoil it too much where i was just rewatching the last episode before we got out here and i'm like what
[SPEAKER_05]: No, but like everybody in the show is looking at him, but it's not like he's a bad He learned a lot of actors that are divas that try to bend a project.
[SPEAKER_05]: No, he's some Nicholas cage.
[SPEAKER_05]: I feel like it Nicholas cage is someone who the shit the show bends around him everyone's like cool Okay, totally.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am 100% a Nicholas cage a polygis like I would rather watch Nicholas cage be Absolutely batshit into something then yes
[SPEAKER_03]: then somebody be like, oh, I did a very straightforward player man or, you know?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, that's what I was saying.
[SPEAKER_05]: You cast him.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's what I said.
[SPEAKER_05]: But honestly, I feel like at the end of his career, we will look at Nicholas Cate.
[SPEAKER_05]: I bet let's be an absolutely even 50, 50 split movies that were good and movies that were absolutely insane.
[SPEAKER_03]: But he's always washable in them, even if it's absolutely insane.
[SPEAKER_03]: I like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: He's great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Pete, you can put back on your headphones.
[SPEAKER_05]: Pete, stress it out.
[SPEAKER_05]: He's stressed it out, Pete.
[SPEAKER_03]: Pete, you need to take that phone call.
[SPEAKER_03]: You could have taken it with your headphones.
[SPEAKER_05]: I was calling you Pete Seek, but you had phones back.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, nice, man.
[SPEAKER_03]: You should, uh, great.
[SPEAKER_03]: OK, here we go.
[SPEAKER_03]: Joey Gross says, Pete's a challenge, garbage plates, New Orleans eating.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you had a food beverage review site or video channel, what's your food topic?
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, based on that absolute garbage, we are trash monsters who will eat anything that's unhealthy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, I tried to like eat my way through Philadelphia as far as cheese steaks and try them all.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I gained a lot of weight and it was, I started to smell like cheese.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was kind of a weird thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: You wouldn't do a candy podcast or review site or something, Pete.
[SPEAKER_03]: don't play with my emotions.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know I want to do that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know that's why I'm saying to answer this question that's we're being asked right out because I'll tell you guys we did this candyman podcast about sweet tooth and we would talk about an episode of sweet tooth and then we review a piece of candy
[SPEAKER_03]: and Pete liked it so much.
[SPEAKER_03]: He was like, hey, should we review candy on these other podcasts as well?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, though they had nothing.
[SPEAKER_03]: He was like, I'd already do patrol podcasts.
[SPEAKER_03]: He was like, what if we review a piece of candy ever, yes, what if we did the candy?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, have a little more candy.
[SPEAKER_03]: A little more juicy candy.
[SPEAKER_05]: Is that all right?
[SPEAKER_03]: Justin, if you're going to do something, what would be your food topic?
[SPEAKER_05]: I mean, pickles for one.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: We really kind of did that.
[SPEAKER_05]: We did that once, like, 15 years ago.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's still count.
[SPEAKER_05]: So definitely cover that.
[SPEAKER_05]: But also, like, I'm a big, like, regional.
[SPEAKER_05]: I get to a place.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm like, what's the thing they do here?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: And I want to eat that, even if I don't really like it.
[SPEAKER_05]: It would be like most everything.
[SPEAKER_02]: It would be fun to take you guys around Rochester to the different plates and kind of talk to you guys about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Just a different garbage plates.
[SPEAKER_02]: yeah i mean different yeah like it's a every kind of diner or restaurant has its own plate and so like they call them trash plates or sloppy plates different kind of variations and it's fun to call any see the like that restaurant's take on something that's you know that would be part of a special 12 part event called the death of comic book club
[SPEAKER_03]: it's not a happy what what trash night is that needs to be yes I did I used to back of the dawn of YouTube I used to do a video series called I am trash can where I would have people send me things that they want to be the eat and then I eat them in terms of you look
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what this anymore, but wait, I am trash can and you would just eat like if someone sent you a printer cartridge, you would, you know, not like a printer cartridge, but it was mostly like the weirdest candy possible that they could find for the most part sometimes chips or things like that I it was
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I did a couple of videos.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was mostly with Elephan Larry my sketch group.
[SPEAKER_03]: We had a group of blog back when group blogs first popped up on blog spot and so my recurring feature was I am trash can which occasionally I do on video so there you go.
[SPEAKER_05]: How about that?
[SPEAKER_05]: Yes, let's bring that back.
[SPEAKER_05]: It's easy.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, no problem.
[SPEAKER_03]: I do it every day for free.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, wow.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, man.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I mean, face off is definitely up there, but raising Arizona is also really good.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's tough.
[SPEAKER_05]: Maggie, you see you got married, obviously.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, no.
[SPEAKER_02]: What's the air one?
[SPEAKER_02]: The kind of air one.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, kind of air ones up there.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're face off.
[SPEAKER_03]: I already said that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sorry.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: What about the prequel face on?
[SPEAKER_05]: That was much more fun when he was it's about his birth when they've got his face on Don't fail me now.
[SPEAKER_02]: Did he do like a weird one word?
[SPEAKER_02]: He was a Dracula or something where he was a vampire?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes with Nicholas Holt K. J. and Holt together.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, it was cause a one word name Gary Nope Yeah, that was fun
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... great great great list uh... david critney says i've seen it yet where are you guys on new star wars the reviews seem very mixed if you guys seen mando and grougou yet i can't wait i can't wait i'm going but i haven't gotten yet
[SPEAKER_03]: We were again talking about this on the discord quite a bit and there's definitely some people who are very negative on it But the majority reaction is the same reaction.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was very surprised to find myself happening having Which Pete take off your headphones and five brushes.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry we have a pideon's on our podcast that this was out too Yeah, so that's on him
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I had a fine time.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, that's not like the arousing endorsement for it or anything like that.
[SPEAKER_05]: No.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I think that's the main reaction.
[SPEAKER_03]: I see for people.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I had fun period.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I wish, do I wish the movie was going for more for sure?
[SPEAKER_03]: I always do.
[SPEAKER_03]: But in terms of like, if it's hot, it's a, it's a nice, it's hot out.
[SPEAKER_03]: You go in, get a big soda and some candy and some popcorn and just tag out.
[SPEAKER_03]: And that's it.
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm talking about it being in a nice room.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't want to get like two feet above.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, you're a view involves just sitting down in a, like, over a tyrant home.
[SPEAKER_05]: So just to be clear what's happening.
[SPEAKER_03]: I, I feel like we used to have more tolerance for summer movies.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, the sort of movie that was like, this was made for our conditioning.
[SPEAKER_05]: I mean, that's why it's Homer's franchise was built up.
[SPEAKER_03]: One hundred percent.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't, obviously, like, I care very deeply about entertainment and what entertainment could do and be pushed forward.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I do think like we've lost something a little bit in terms of allowing ourselves to be like, well, that was dumb.
[SPEAKER_03]: I had a nice time.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not.
[SPEAKER_03]: part of a greater franchise, it's not launching anything, it's not part of an interconnected universe, it's just like two hours where it was, I was sweating my balls off outside, I went inside, and it wasn't starting to blow up and it was cool.
[SPEAKER_05]: I mean, I agree with you in general that like movies need don't need to do everything Like I don't need this to be like a thinking person's movie at the same time It's a big blockbuster Michael Bay thing at the same time It's launching the franchise and re-vigorating the Star Wars universe.
[SPEAKER_05]: So I agree with you on that front But I can't say I'm excited to see it because I feel the front of it has bad dialogue I get there's no emotion.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's where I'm gonna have some questions.
[SPEAKER_05]: That's what I'm gonna re-reason like
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm not going to apologize for anything this movie does wrong, because it's not a good movie Grok who cute There you go.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can put your headphones back on again
[SPEAKER_05]: you can cool your balls on.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, as Derek says, movies have just used to cool off my balls.
[SPEAKER_03]: They actually added that in 40 acts.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's now a little holder.
[SPEAKER_03]: They put where you could put your balls.
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't trust it, man.
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't trust it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I said, what are you going to take your sperm?
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I just think those 40 acts is like a rollercoaster of pain.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you trust them with your balls, you're going to be sorely mistaken.
[SPEAKER_05]: I, it's weird, P, I bought like a quart of your sperm on my, I don't know, I'm selling it if it's not you and I feel weird.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's definitely not me and let's say thank you to the night.
[SPEAKER_03]: The air, see the test scrub, believe, has a Pete sperm freestyle though.
[SPEAKER_03]: Freestyle?
[SPEAKER_03]: That was that word.
[SPEAKER_05]: Now where I thought you were going to go and that's extra gross and I love it.
[SPEAKER_05]: Let me try peat, I hope I hit on top, I'm gonna try pressing peat.
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, that's, this is a dirty soda, is this what dirty soda is?
[SPEAKER_05]: Definitely what that is.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, anyway, let's go to the, oh, wait, we got one last one in here.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's not add on that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Christian S. Allus says, I think I just feel about comic book to film adaptations that change the characters in casting or changing the story.
[SPEAKER_05]: I think a little bit more charitable, a little bit more on board with it than others.
[SPEAKER_05]: Like, I feel like, especially if they really make some strong choices that feel justified for a larger story they're telling, I mean, we could talk about this in a lot of TV shows.
[SPEAKER_05]: I feel like Wonderman did this watchman, the HBO show, made a lot of sort of big swings that were not at all based on the original storyline, but were excellent and excited.
[SPEAKER_05]: So I'm in.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm in two as long as it feels like it's still the thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know what I mean?
[SPEAKER_02]: If it really still feels like it, just kind of some tweaks to have some fun with some different things, but
[SPEAKER_03]: go for the medium that you're going for.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've said this a billion times on the show but just to ape what you're saying just in like a comic book is a comic book and a film is a film and they shouldn't be the same thing because when they are the same thing to use the example of Watchman it doesn't work because
[SPEAKER_03]: you're just trying to repeat the thing that happened previously versus figure out why are we making this film, what is this film saying, what is different than the comic book?
[SPEAKER_03]: It's part of the reason not to slag on something that I know a lot of people like, but it's part of the reason that I can't get into a lot of the DC animated movies because they're just adapting the story when the thing that is usually good about those things is the synthesis between the writing and the art and the way they come together.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're explicitly ignoring the art in favor of their more generic style, so, right.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I don't know about that, but I also, I think 300 is a good example of kind of taking things panel panel shot to shot and it's pretty awesome to see the remote movie version of it.
[SPEAKER_03]: is that I would argue that they made it into a movie by changing and adapting the visual style, so it's incredibly unique, like they are doing the panels from the book, but I wouldn't look at that and be like, that's a comic book.
[SPEAKER_03]: It is a movie that moves like a movie and feels like a movie.
[SPEAKER_05]: I guess, but I think it's a really wide someone flipping in front of the camera, like what that's Pete, that's what you want.
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, that's what that is, but I guess.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I know, but you're saying it like it's I think sometimes it's a it's a cool way to bring something in on or it by not changing it and trying to do it is.
[SPEAKER_05]: I think what Alex is saying is they took the whole the idea of comic books in the elevated it in a way by making a they treated the film in a certain way to make it look this like hyper real hyper masculine way so they were adapting they were making a strong choice in adaptation I think yep
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, I agree and Stanley asks how about the Nick success unfortunately come on you're in the wrong chat Come on that nobody has anything to go that or anything
[SPEAKER_05]: This Peter are you a true next fan or are you just.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_02]: He used to do this after you gave a huge shot.
[SPEAKER_05]: This town's gonna flip.
