[SPEAKER_00]: This is where this two days in a row is always it is June 3rd.

00:28.068 --> 00:28.809
[SPEAKER_00]: It is Wednesday.

[SPEAKER_00]: It is time to talk comics.

00:30.230 --> 00:32.271
[SPEAKER_00]: It's time to deliver stack.

00:32.351 --> 00:34.413
[SPEAKER_00]: It's time to get to the top,

00:39.131 --> 00:41.253
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you read your stack all at once, Pete?

00:41.533 --> 00:43.474
[SPEAKER_00]: Requit question the time before we get to it.

00:43.534 --> 00:45.356
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I like to break my stack up.

00:45.996 --> 00:50.539
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, depending on my day, I kind of attack my stack differently.

00:50.640 --> 00:55.183
[SPEAKER_02]: But what's one of my favorite things to do is the order in which you read your comics.

00:55.343 --> 00:56.083
[SPEAKER_00]: It's fun.

00:56.123 --> 01:00.026
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, I know we usually get right to the comics, but are you reading your stack on Thursday?

01:01.587 --> 01:01.788
[SPEAKER_02]: What?

01:02.388 --> 01:06.171
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you getting through, are you like holding over part of your stack a day?

01:07.507 --> 01:08.970
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I get to a merrily man.

01:09.791 --> 01:12.416
[SPEAKER_00]: So you're spacing them out, but you're getting it done.

01:12.817 --> 01:13.038
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

01:13.723 --> 01:26.711
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay great because like the characters working on the in the death star factory on and or you got to hit your quota And your quote is the stack And we've got some big issues to talk about today here on our stack.

01:26.731 --> 01:31.673
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's kick it off with one I've been heavily anticipating and that is 10-man number one.

01:32.074 --> 01:32.794
[SPEAKER_00]: Come on.

01:33.134 --> 01:39.458
[SPEAKER_00]: This is from our guys the ice cream and team Well the team from this comic

01:39.798 --> 01:50.859
[SPEAKER_00]: uh... love them w max well prints are by martin rosos from dc comics peat we are built to love this did this live up to uh... your expectations

01:51.257 --> 01:56.539
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, first off cool cover, it's such a great job getting you excited for what's inside.

01:56.559 --> 02:03.283
[SPEAKER_00]: Not only is the cover you're seeing here cool, there are a lot of additional cool covers out there, if you want to do a little bit of research.

02:03.303 --> 02:04.063
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah.

02:04.763 --> 02:10.346
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, I was just so excited for when I heard for this team to make this book.

02:10.786 --> 02:13.387
[SPEAKER_02]: And I feel like they did such a great job of delivering,

02:14.988 --> 02:26.876
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, I thought this was really cool, the art's amazing, that demon was a lot, but this is great and I can't wait to kind of get more into this.

02:26.916 --> 02:28.256
[SPEAKER_02]: This is creepy, but fun.

02:29.197 --> 02:34.901
[SPEAKER_02]: Art's got a great tone to it that adds a little creep, but also is some kind of comfort there.

02:35.001 --> 02:37.662
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, I think this

02:42.418 --> 02:57.812
[SPEAKER_00]: it's really interesting the way that these guys have been able to jump over and have been doing a lot of like really exciting work for DC while still maintaining their tone vibe and just like what they have done so well over in their other books especially ice cream

02:58.733 --> 03:20.053
[SPEAKER_00]: And this, we followed that man, the character that is often, like he's wearing, he's often dead, and a man, wearing a trapeze, a circus trapeze in a uniform, because his origin is strikingly similar to Robbins, in a way that has always been like, let's could we go back and check the history books on this one?

03:21.166 --> 03:32.832
[SPEAKER_00]: What this book does super well is it focuses on the dead part first, it brings us in on an idea of what this dead man is going to be doing and it's

03:33.577 --> 03:41.099
[SPEAKER_00]: It's very much, he's like a work a day, dead man, as opposed to getting involved in a intense mystery or super heroics.

03:41.739 --> 03:48.021
[SPEAKER_00]: He's just doing his job, which is to help people get out of their bodies and get to the rubber guy life.

03:48.321 --> 03:50.542
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and that's, I love that.

03:50.642 --> 03:52.362
[SPEAKER_00]: I love the practicality of that.

03:52.902 --> 03:58.544
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we just over the course of the issues, some things unfold that make us realize this is going to be.

03:59.244 --> 04:03.207
[SPEAKER_00]: a more specific journey in a supernatural story for him to chase down.

04:03.268 --> 04:08.612
[SPEAKER_00]: But man, I have was so excited for this and I feel like this delivered on every front.

04:08.912 --> 04:09.713
[SPEAKER_00]: I love this.

04:11.314 --> 04:14.857
[SPEAKER_00]: It made me want to believe in ghosts harder.

04:15.537 --> 04:17.079
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, you don't believe?

04:17.619 --> 04:18.120
[SPEAKER_00]: Not really.

04:18.160 --> 04:19.681
[SPEAKER_00]: Be, are you a ghost?

04:19.741 --> 04:20.762
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you encountered a ghost?

04:21.122 --> 04:21.923
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I believe.

04:22.803 --> 04:24.024
[SPEAKER_00]: When did you encounter a ghost?

04:24.345 --> 04:25.245
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it was a kid, man.

04:25.466 --> 04:28.168
[SPEAKER_02]: We had a sleepover and everything because we didn't believe my body camper.

04:29.011 --> 04:30.072
[SPEAKER_00]: OK, keep going.

04:30.092 --> 04:30.712
[SPEAKER_00]: This is important.

04:32.073 --> 04:41.000
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, we were hanging out downstairs, and we heard the collar, you know, like when a dog has a collar, it kind of like when goes down in the steps of your hair it.

04:41.561 --> 04:43.082
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, that's what we heard.

04:43.542 --> 04:54.631
[SPEAKER_02]: And some people stuck around to find out, but I ran through the front door and left a cartoon image of myself in the wake and ran off the window all the way home.

04:58.372 --> 05:11.812
[SPEAKER_00]: uh... yeah because it was a coast because it's dog was dead uh... that's an important detail in the story the way you tell the story was like yeah his dog was coming down the steps and i got so scared ran

05:13.530 --> 05:33.880
[SPEAKER_00]: your twist is like the dog was dead the whole time real sick sense energy to that story from Pila page about why he believes in dog ghost not human ghost only ghost that's what you said that's what you said that's what you've been jealous I believe in all that was the story of just a ghost dog great movie

05:35.281 --> 05:46.850
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even believe in the movie ghost dog you've always believed in that, but that is a wild story to be like I believe in ghosts And here's the evidence, but that's what you told and so here we are for it.

05:46.910 --> 05:48.812
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's You've never come on.

05:48.832 --> 05:50.533
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe you live to near a wild dude.

05:50.553 --> 05:52.315
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the start of every ghost story

05:52.875 --> 06:05.180
[SPEAKER_00]: grew up on well water but the well I didn't grow up on a stone circle bucket well I had running water but no that could go to the well the fetch water.

06:06.268 --> 06:09.429
[SPEAKER_00]: No fetching a water, water came out when we hit the nozzle.

06:10.630 --> 06:12.971
[SPEAKER_00]: I do live in the current timeline.

06:13.271 --> 06:17.993
[SPEAKER_00]: But I never really encountered a ghost situation that has made me believe.

06:18.053 --> 06:19.013
[SPEAKER_00]: And here, you know what though?

06:19.233 --> 06:20.374
[SPEAKER_00]: This book is making me do it.

06:20.794 --> 06:23.995
[SPEAKER_00]: Dead man on, definitely a fave, definitely pick it up.

06:24.576 --> 06:29.358
[SPEAKER_00]: But let's talk about the next book in our stack, which is the mighty Morphin Powerhouse number one.

06:29.378 --> 06:33.679
[SPEAKER_00]: For Boom Studios, run by Margarit Bennett and Art by Andrew Lee Griffith.

06:33.719 --> 06:34.200
[SPEAKER_00]: Now this,

06:35.240 --> 06:37.282
[SPEAKER_00]: reboot.

06:37.322 --> 06:40.124
[SPEAKER_00]: The power Rangers, I feel like, have gone through a lot of phases.

06:40.185 --> 06:42.446
[SPEAKER_00]: There was a big build-out.

06:42.607 --> 06:45.249
[SPEAKER_00]: There's never to really build them out into a larger universe.

06:45.269 --> 06:46.550
[SPEAKER_00]: We were touching on a lot of different.

06:47.625 --> 06:51.787
[SPEAKER_00]: Mythology building things and sort of a future sequel stuff.

06:52.308 --> 06:54.729
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a true return to form.

06:54.829 --> 06:58.571
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like bringing back the original characters.

06:58.611 --> 07:00.132
[SPEAKER_00]: They're literally coming home.

07:00.152 --> 07:06.015
[SPEAKER_00]: They are acknowledging the continuity for sure But they're definitely even ask about Tommy, man

07:06.607 --> 07:11.569
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and Tommy, missing, and perhaps a mystery for the next few years.

07:11.649 --> 07:14.390
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a little meat time, you know what I mean?

07:14.410 --> 07:17.551
[SPEAKER_02]: It's on that vacation, just to kind of re-sunder himself.

07:17.871 --> 07:18.372
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, interesting.

07:18.392 --> 07:21.193
[SPEAKER_00]: He looks like he's laying down, but maybe not doing well.

07:21.293 --> 07:23.274
[SPEAKER_00]: They were literally talking about the last page of this comic.

07:23.594 --> 07:26.335
[SPEAKER_00]: But you're someone who, like, you love a teenage man in your turtle.

07:26.835 --> 07:32.997
[SPEAKER_00]: And the mighty one for Power Rangers, similar number of words in their name, some similarities in vibe.

07:33.157 --> 07:34.678
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you like this comic?

07:35.648 --> 07:45.373
[SPEAKER_02]: I do like this comic, money more from Power Rangers kind of missed me a little bit, I don't know why, but you were more a mystic Knights of tier to not guy.

07:45.433 --> 08:04.022
[SPEAKER_02]: Now I was more of a kind of Voltron kid, and I don't know, the money more from Power Rangers were cool and definitely like had action figures and stuff, but the TV show, you know, I watched some of it, but I don't know, it wasn't on my rotation, but

08:04.322 --> 08:05.243
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this is fun.

08:05.443 --> 08:10.646
[SPEAKER_02]: I like the kind of discovery of them being rusty and that kind of stuff.

08:11.106 --> 08:14.208
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought they did a good job of getting us up to speed.

08:15.449 --> 08:20.592
[SPEAKER_02]: There was that weird moment where one of them had a kid and they were like, I didn't know you were married and they were like, I'm not.

08:20.612 --> 08:24.594
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, oh, dude, what year do you think this is, bro?

08:25.595 --> 08:28.897
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, but yeah, I thought the art was great.

08:29.798 --> 08:30.338
[SPEAKER_02]: This was fun.

08:31.316 --> 08:34.478
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like I said, it really is, it's a spare issue.

08:34.518 --> 08:37.800
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it's a light on big, big action.

08:38.160 --> 08:39.921
[SPEAKER_00]: I would say, but it's the action you expect.

08:40.001 --> 08:41.102
[SPEAKER_00]: It's them coming together.

08:41.582 --> 08:42.803
[SPEAKER_00]: There's some zord work.

08:43.243 --> 08:46.906
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a mystery here with a villain that they know.

08:46.946 --> 08:48.407
[SPEAKER_00]: The first name is Rita.

08:48.607 --> 08:49.888
[SPEAKER_00]: They don't know the last name.

08:50.448 --> 08:51.208
[SPEAKER_00]: It's surprising them.

08:51.228 --> 08:52.109
[SPEAKER_02]: They're very hot.

08:52.609 --> 08:54.911
[SPEAKER_00]: There are no, they're very cut off guard by it.

08:56.172 --> 08:59.474
[SPEAKER_00]: And yes, it builds toward a wears Tommy situation.

09:01.454 --> 09:06.497
[SPEAKER_00]: So if you're craving some of that me at 90's rage money more from Power Rangers.

09:06.537 --> 09:19.644
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the book for you Well, let's talk about the next book, which is X-Men 97 Number one from Marvel Comics Yeah, we are right in the 90's rock blog.

09:19.684 --> 09:20.485
[SPEAKER_02]: There we go.

09:20.565 --> 09:21.085
[SPEAKER_02]: Come on.

09:21.125 --> 09:25.968
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a third eye blind and space hog in this all the dry blinds from today

09:27.128 --> 09:53.682
[SPEAKER_00]: We're listening to Pearl Jam's like third album, so like, you know, it's this fine Like there's some good ones, but also some less your a PJ guy Not I don't press play on that very often, but I certainly all my friends were we were crushing that Pearl Jam Jeremy spoke and you know This comic by Steve Fox art by Salva S. Bean like we are

09:54.482 --> 10:18.104
[SPEAKER_00]: we're picking up on where a season one ended, we're getting into real expanding out, pushing out this universe into, this is spoilers, I should say spoilers for everything, all these comics we're talking about and we're not gonna spoil anything, I'm not gonna be mean about it, but we are gonna talk about the comics and this one bears talking about because we do get the push out to X-factor.

10:18.724 --> 10:31.173
[SPEAKER_00]: we get a push out to X-Force, all happening and these are the classic teams and you know this we haven't gotten X-Men 97 season 2 the animated series.

10:31.433 --> 10:38.639
[SPEAKER_00]: So this is giving us, I doubt this is exactly what they're going to cover on the show but man did it feel good.

10:39.859 --> 10:47.365
[SPEAKER_00]: It felt nice to be back in this world and I really like seeing a classic X-Factor team here.

10:48.034 --> 10:49.155
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, feels good.

10:49.495 --> 10:56.378
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I think what's nice is this really feels like they just plucked the characters from the cartoon, put them right on the cowl book.

10:56.778 --> 11:00.840
[SPEAKER_02]: The art feels perfect like the cartoon come to life in such a great way.

11:01.980 --> 11:03.041
[SPEAKER_02]: I love this promise.

11:03.321 --> 11:07.322
[SPEAKER_02]: I love this idea of fortune, bishop, teaming up to save the X-Men.

11:07.342 --> 11:08.183
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's great.

11:08.623 --> 11:12.426
[SPEAKER_02]: She gets crazy, really fun, villain reveal of the last panel.

11:13.747 --> 11:17.250
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I thought this did a great job of hitting on all the spots.

11:17.390 --> 11:21.533
[SPEAKER_02]: And I felt like this is a really great start.

11:22.185 --> 11:40.588
[SPEAKER_00]: It goes really big really quickly, which I was sort of surprised about, but at the end of the day I liked it, and it's a massive squad of characters, and Pete or someone who is a little bit down on the X-Men usually, so yeah, what happened here, and level it also let's not forget the villainment of villains in here as well.

11:41.248 --> 11:48.610
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I don't know, I just, I think this, the set up, the start, the team teamwork, I was really happy with this, you know what I mean?

11:49.230 --> 11:49.630
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah,

11:51.162 --> 11:56.845
[SPEAKER_00]: And the era of the X men that they're touching on in the last reveal that Pete mentioned is really exciting.

11:56.925 --> 12:03.508
[SPEAKER_00]: So, uh, shout to that, definitely looking for more, and speaking of looking for more, let's talk about another comic.

12:04.108 --> 12:08.870
[SPEAKER_00]: In this case, we are talking about, oh god, why is this working?

12:09.610 --> 12:10.691
[SPEAKER_00]: We are talking about, um,

12:11.608 --> 12:23.833
[SPEAKER_00]: DCs, Justice League Dreamgirls, a DC Pride event number one, written by Jadsie Axelrod, Nicole Mayns, and Greg Rucca are by Nicole Scott, J-Bone, Brandt, and Stein, and Claire Roe.

12:25.014 --> 12:36.139
[SPEAKER_00]: This is an interconnected group of stories built around Dreamer, a character that, you know, we see in a lot of these event issues and...

12:37.119 --> 13:03.609
[SPEAKER_00]: really like the character like I I feel like dreamer has become this big part of the DC universe and I like the way we we talked about the different event comics that are coming out like you know we have our valentine state comics we have our uh what else Chris miss a holiday all of that uh for that for this Pride event like DC's been going with interlocking stories that I think has just really elevated these these

13:06.564 --> 13:12.994
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I think they agree, they put some great teams on it, they have some cool ideas, it's well executed.

13:13.014 --> 13:16.699
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, you know, I think that

13:17.702 --> 13:22.804
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, just because it's a pride event doesn't mean it has to get like crazy or anything like that.

13:22.824 --> 13:26.486
[SPEAKER_02]: It can just be some really cool stories that start certain characters.

13:27.087 --> 13:30.508
[SPEAKER_02]: So I think when we're doing great stories, everybody wins.

13:30.588 --> 13:37.932
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, anytime we can do events like this and celebrate characters and have great stories, I think everybody wins.

13:38.672 --> 13:40.092
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought this did a great job.

13:40.132 --> 13:45.474
[SPEAKER_02]: I love this Steve Trevor's stuff, we are all wrong with unbelievable.

13:45.594 --> 13:54.476
[SPEAKER_02]: I just felt like it was a great dreamy kind of feeling like we got this kind of really adorable story with these two characters.

13:54.516 --> 14:01.578
[SPEAKER_02]: We see on the cover here and yeah, I just felt like the art and a great job of sweeping us away to this kind of magical, great place.

14:01.618 --> 14:02.799
[SPEAKER_02]: So, I enjoyed it.

14:03.439 --> 14:07.140
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm to keep hyping up what the confident they'll give to editorial about the

14:09.252 --> 14:14.755
[SPEAKER_00]: They made the connectivity between the stories in this issue, like a very visceral moment.

14:15.055 --> 14:21.439
[SPEAKER_00]: Often I think the baton gets passed and it's like, oh yeah, I did pass by Batwoman earlier.

14:22.159 --> 14:29.224
[SPEAKER_00]: And in this, it's like really a big part of the story to dramatic shift that, again, just works so well.

14:29.324 --> 14:38.329
[SPEAKER_00]: Even though it's a complete shift in tone, art style, between the stories, it still really works the way they did it.

14:39.630 --> 14:41.511
[SPEAKER_00]: just want to continue to shout that out.

14:41.591 --> 14:47.873
[SPEAKER_00]: And I like where we're left here in sort of not what I expected from a story to the point of view.

14:48.453 --> 15:02.098
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we do have a second story here from Greg Rucca and Claire Roe that is a babbleman story, which is excellent like to have this be a

15:03.700 --> 15:13.371
[SPEAKER_00]: A part like I feel like the Batwoman Ron has been given the like they're just continuing what they what they had planned initially to see this story Which is separate.

15:13.651 --> 15:23.983
[SPEAKER_00]: It's it will be continued in the main series, but like it makes the whole entire enterprise feel a little bit more alive to see here So it was definitely happy to see that Great

15:25.095 --> 15:26.716
[SPEAKER_00]: Great package, deaf pickup.

15:27.036 --> 15:36.119
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk about only the savage our left number one from darkhorse comics We're going to come on Kaplan are by Stefano Raphael So what do we have here?

15:36.139 --> 15:45.162
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a interesting riff on a post-apocalyptic zombie world where the twist here is that if you do get infected

15:46.188 --> 15:55.872
[SPEAKER_00]: The way to sort of beat back the infection, not go full zombie, is you have to burn a corpse and then inhale the smoke.

15:56.513 --> 15:58.934
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, dude, just got inhale and then you're set.

15:59.934 --> 16:01.975
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, it's a real puff puff pass.

16:02.015 --> 16:03.176
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you know what I mean?

16:03.276 --> 16:05.417
[SPEAKER_02]: And you can't, you can't bow guard the corpse.

16:05.477 --> 16:08.858
[SPEAKER_02]: You guys pass it around so other people get saved.

16:09.018 --> 16:10.099
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's a, yeah.

16:11.443 --> 16:15.825
[SPEAKER_02]: You can't just be hogging a corpse here, so I'll make sure you're spreading the love.

16:15.965 --> 16:18.646
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I walk around New York and all I smell these days.

16:18.726 --> 16:20.367
[SPEAKER_00]: It's different people, smoking corpse.

16:20.387 --> 16:22.128
[SPEAKER_00]: They've just they legalized corpse.

16:22.788 --> 16:23.689
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's a real issue.

16:23.929 --> 16:26.350
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, in that near city, it's crazy.

16:26.790 --> 16:27.531
[SPEAKER_02]: I love this.

16:27.691 --> 16:30.572
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like this is a really great first issue.

16:30.772 --> 16:32.373
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it's already kind of like,

16:33.623 --> 16:49.136
[SPEAKER_02]: Turned up with this idea of a cool post-Apoc kind of story here and great action, fun, last panel reveal, the twists and turns are very kind of exciting, and it's not, you know, you think like, okay, it's just going to be, I mean,

16:49.796 --> 17:06.661
[SPEAKER_02]: cool cover we can all great here like all crap it's going to be monsters at the end of the universe here but it's more than that and interesting you know so I think they do a great job of not only setting up this in the same premise but then kind of giving us some twists and turns along the way to keep us interested.

17:07.350 --> 17:13.693
[SPEAKER_00]: What makes this such a winning book to me is the way they zeroed on these two younger characters who are.

17:14.253 --> 17:28.380
[SPEAKER_00]: They met in the Priya Apocalypse and then they reconnected post-apocalypse and see what one of them who remained sheltered, one who was out in the world, how it has changed them, and then there are repercussions from that that happened by the end of the issue.

17:29.301 --> 17:31.742
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought that was pinning it on these characters.

17:31.882 --> 17:32.862
[SPEAKER_00]: It's really heartfelt.

17:33.042 --> 17:36.244
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a romantic aspect to it that I thought was really great.

17:37.124 --> 17:39.225
[SPEAKER_00]: the art really serves these characters well in it.

17:39.865 --> 17:54.810
[SPEAKER_00]: And the the monstrous nature of it and the almost maybe they're going for an addiction metaphor with the inhaling the corpse smoke to stay to stay fresh is is cool.

17:55.030 --> 17:58.511
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it's a good twist on the genre that I haven't seen before.

17:58.832 --> 18:02.893
[SPEAKER_02]: Wait are you saying that when family members die in your family you don't smoke them?

18:04.252 --> 18:32.160
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no, I'll smoke a little bit of Uncle Gary when it happens, but sort of a What was the it was a keythritured from the Rolling Stones who was like did a line of ash His dad's ashes and one's oh my god I might that might be just absolute made up nonsense and I'm saying but I think that that's certainly sounds real

18:34.938 --> 18:41.021
[SPEAKER_00]: And something that, I think we have committed to doing a line of each other's ashes, right?

18:41.281 --> 18:41.901
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that's right.

18:41.921 --> 18:42.081
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

18:43.402 --> 18:53.867
[SPEAKER_00]: I do want to, this book, there's a little comparison to the Greg Pock book that came out a while ago that I can't remember the name of.

18:55.478 --> 19:15.578
[SPEAKER_00]: uh... that it was about uh... sin and transformation yet the post of popular to come in a post about the world yeah it doesn't look like i was like if you like that that great pop book uh... it is uh... good i can't quite find the name of it

19:16.310 --> 19:20.792
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, this is why it's nice to have an extra host to keep talking while we're doing this.

19:21.132 --> 19:25.854
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, let's move on and talk about our next book, uh, which is, of course, Supergirls Survive.

19:25.874 --> 19:30.696
[SPEAKER_00]: Number one from DC Comics, written by Ethan Esparca and Griffin Sheridan are by Rod Reyes.

19:31.376 --> 19:33.537
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, this, uh, we got a Supergirl movie coming out.

19:33.617 --> 19:36.798
[SPEAKER_00]: Great time to have a Supergirl comic on the stance of this makes total sense.

19:36.838 --> 19:43.361
[SPEAKER_00]: But what I think they've done here is they actually told an interesting story that haven't seen told a ton, you know?

19:43.717 --> 19:45.778
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the last day's a krypton.

19:46.178 --> 19:53.042
[SPEAKER_00]: We get to see the first time that Supergirl and who will become Superman, get to meet each other.

19:54.643 --> 20:02.008
[SPEAKER_00]: She gets to pick up a little baby Calel in a sweet way, and then they're escaped from the planet and some bad stuff that occurs.

20:03.028 --> 20:03.929
[SPEAKER_00]: I really like this.

20:04.589 --> 20:09.592
[SPEAKER_00]: I haven't seen this before, told in this exact intimate detail way, I like the

20:10.197 --> 20:13.358
[SPEAKER_00]: larger politics on display, it was very cool.

20:13.919 --> 20:14.579
[SPEAKER_00]: Pete, what did you think?

20:15.119 --> 20:18.201
[SPEAKER_02]: Ah, man, I'm still looking through Greg Pax.

20:18.681 --> 20:21.402
[SPEAKER_02]: Man, he's done a lot of amazing work.

20:21.862 --> 20:23.803
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought I could just flip through it and find it.

20:23.843 --> 20:25.644
[SPEAKER_02]: But no, I love this.

20:25.704 --> 20:30.366
[SPEAKER_02]: At that first off, cool cover, epic, kind of fun take on this.

20:33.027 --> 20:44.278
[SPEAKER_02]: Orgs and sorry we've seen a million times, you know, like what if she's got it kind of like we see her there with the kind of baby Bjorn kind of rock and like man this baby versus the world here, and that's a cool idea, right?

20:44.298 --> 20:46.080
[SPEAKER_02]: Like what if she's a little baby soups.

20:46.400 --> 20:53.166
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, she was like a little I got to protect little baby soups and so yeah, I think you know

20:53.947 --> 21:02.695
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm here for you know we yes we've seen this idea before but not like this so I'm in I think this is cool.

21:04.296 --> 21:09.901
[SPEAKER_00]: Agreed and Pete let me ask you why we're talking here or what's your anticipation level for the Supergirl movie?

21:11.762 --> 21:15.786
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna have low expectations and hope to be blown away that's my plan.

21:16.883 --> 21:39.900
[SPEAKER_00]: uh... really so you keeping but look what do you actually feel i'm talking all your emotional strategy for the rest of the world i'm talking about like what you like you see the trailer like what do you think i haven't seen the trail i've been a body or two close to this is where i avoid things is i like to go in like a newborn baby you haven't seen any trailer no well i saw some earlier trailers but you didn't see the part where lobo shows

21:41.038 --> 21:44.540
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I've only seen the dog kind of dragging her around a little bit.

21:45.020 --> 21:46.721
[SPEAKER_02]: The earlier it kind of teeser stuff.

21:47.622 --> 21:50.763
[SPEAKER_00]: What I just said when Lobo shows up to them, you happier said.

21:51.524 --> 21:58.308
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm trying to block it out and ignore it because I don't want to have too many expectations going in.

21:58.668 --> 21:59.928
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm excited for Lobo.

22:00.008 --> 22:06.832
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm worried what kind of Lobo we're going to get, but I also think the casting on Lobo is fantastic.

22:10.625 --> 22:12.209
[SPEAKER_00]: So you're giving yourself some details.

22:13.492 --> 22:16.733
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, it's hard to avoid the internet, you know what I mean?

22:16.753 --> 22:27.177
[SPEAKER_00]: I like how uncomfortable this makes you, you're very, you're very like, uh, yeah, no, I'm trying to protect myself because I don't want to get the problem.

22:27.197 --> 22:35.300
[SPEAKER_02]: I think people have sometimes as they've seen stuff and they start writing ideas in the head and then when they go to the movie and it's not what they think they get upset.

22:35.700 --> 22:40.262
[SPEAKER_02]: So I try to keep it a blank slate so that way I'm not writing my own movie, I go in.

22:41.062 --> 22:44.243
[SPEAKER_02]: The movie tells me what it's about and then I get to say yes or no?

22:45.084 --> 22:46.544
[SPEAKER_00]: The movie tells you what it's about.

22:46.904 --> 22:47.945
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

22:47.965 --> 22:50.266
[SPEAKER_00]: The great part comic that we've been talking about is lawful.

22:50.826 --> 22:53.587
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, which is a fun thing to check out.

22:53.607 --> 22:55.908
[SPEAKER_00]: So definitely check it out.

22:56.048 --> 22:59.609
[SPEAKER_00]: It finished its run mid year last year, I believe.

22:59.689 --> 23:01.110
[SPEAKER_00]: So definitely worth checking out.

23:02.567 --> 23:07.670
[SPEAKER_00]: But, and don't tell Pete anything about really anything, I guess, because he doesn't want to know.

23:08.531 --> 23:20.598
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, to tell Pete about this, what if the uncanny X-Men number 1 from Marvel Comics, written by Jerry Duggin, Arby Jan Bousel-Dooja, Pete, what is happening here?

23:22.018 --> 23:23.479
[SPEAKER_02]: This is my nightmare.

23:23.739 --> 23:27.822
[SPEAKER_02]: This is like, what if the Cyclops sucks worse than you think he sucks?

23:28.222 --> 23:30.003
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not the name of the comic.

23:30.363 --> 23:32.024
[SPEAKER_02]: No, but that's kind of what this is.

23:32.104 --> 23:37.467
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like, what if, like, cops was worse and I'm like, yeah, that's what I've been saying this whole time.

23:37.868 --> 23:39.088
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I have a lot of stuff.

23:39.189 --> 23:40.589
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just a stress dream.

23:40.990 --> 23:42.070
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a stress dream.

23:42.090 --> 23:44.612
[SPEAKER_02]: This comic is a stress dream come to life for me.

23:45.033 --> 23:50.174
[SPEAKER_00]: From what I know about UP, I feel like you only have stress dream, so you can't be bad.

23:50.254 --> 23:54.616
[SPEAKER_00]: The subtitle of this issue is what if Cyclops stayed with Madeline prior?

23:55.396 --> 24:10.380
[SPEAKER_00]: Something that technically makes a lot of sense in X-Men continuity, because if you don't remember, we learned after the fact that Mr. Sinister had replaced Jean Grey with a clone that he made,

24:11.010 --> 24:11.590
[SPEAKER_00]: seamlessly.

24:12.171 --> 24:15.513
[SPEAKER_00]: And Cyclops is like sick works perfectly.

24:15.573 --> 24:17.595
[SPEAKER_00]: We love this clone.

24:17.655 --> 24:18.155
[SPEAKER_02]: No notes.

24:18.635 --> 24:18.975
[SPEAKER_02]: Same.

24:20.156 --> 24:21.117
[SPEAKER_00]: And do you blame him for that?

24:21.377 --> 24:23.979
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you feel like you could you spot a clone in a relationship?

24:25.880 --> 24:26.681
[SPEAKER_02]: Damn, Ron, I could.

24:27.121 --> 24:27.741
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you think you can?

24:28.402 --> 24:28.702
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah.

24:28.962 --> 24:35.867
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I think part of my problems uh, when it comes to a partner in life is I watch them like I'll fucking the hawk.

24:39.142 --> 24:40.844
[SPEAKER_00]: You wake up you're like show your hands.

24:40.985 --> 24:41.205
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you?

24:41.225 --> 24:42.828
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, thank you.

24:42.848 --> 24:48.017
[SPEAKER_02]: Come on Dicey, I know what we do yesterday.

24:48.117 --> 24:50.221
[SPEAKER_00]: You have often asked me if I'm a clone.

24:50.281 --> 24:51.322
[SPEAKER_00]: So I do take that

24:52.195 --> 24:54.676
[SPEAKER_02]: Very real also clones hate it when you plug in with the stick.

24:54.917 --> 24:55.757
[SPEAKER_02]: They really hate that.

24:55.777 --> 25:00.699
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I got a new street beat everyone hates So that's not a great clone test.

25:01.180 --> 25:01.640
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh man.

25:01.680 --> 25:03.441
[SPEAKER_02]: That's which I got octet my clone test.

25:03.461 --> 25:04.141
[SPEAKER_00]: I think yes.

25:04.261 --> 25:17.688
[SPEAKER_00]: I would do that So this back to the continuity Mr. Sinister replaced Jean-Drey with a clone cyclops still in love with that clone had a child with vandalin prior Was Nate Gray who'd wrote to be cable

25:18.217 --> 25:21.119
[SPEAKER_00]: and an altar universe, the character, X-Manicator, I also love.

25:22.020 --> 25:26.103
[SPEAKER_00]: But he eventually was like, I can't be with the clone.

25:26.423 --> 25:27.744
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, my friends, no.

25:28.725 --> 25:30.046
[SPEAKER_00]: So he goes talking to me.

25:30.066 --> 25:30.606
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god.

25:30.626 --> 25:31.967
[SPEAKER_02]: Pure pressure, get to you, man.

25:32.027 --> 25:35.750
[SPEAKER_02]: If you're in love, don't let it out of my house, yeah.

25:35.770 --> 25:36.010
[SPEAKER_00]: 100%.

25:36.030 --> 25:45.237
[SPEAKER_00]: That's why I feel like the true, the better version of the story is what this would if you're saying, except for the fact that everything that happens in this issue would if is very bad for everyone.

25:45.377 --> 25:45.697
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

25:47.526 --> 25:48.467
[SPEAKER_02]: How I got an idea.

25:48.487 --> 25:50.968
[SPEAKER_02]: What if the cyclops was actually good?

25:52.308 --> 25:54.569
[SPEAKER_02]: Good person Is good.

25:54.629 --> 26:08.876
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean We have to talk about this in another comic that we're talking about in a minute, but I do like this and this is Spoiler for the end of the issue, but like this is the What if issues often end in like wow?

26:08.936 --> 26:13.438
[SPEAKER_00]: This is more fucked up than I thought this one is like Well, it's all over

26:14.601 --> 26:15.882
[SPEAKER_00]: And I like that.

26:15.962 --> 26:31.154
[SPEAKER_00]: I like when would if issues go down the dark path, I liked the series of tragedies that befell everyone because of this choice, even though I actually think him staying with Madeline Primer makes more sense in almost every capacity.

26:31.534 --> 26:31.855
[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.

26:32.455 --> 26:35.838
[SPEAKER_00]: Would you like to say a lot more if he stayed with Madeline Primer?

26:36.058 --> 26:36.538
[SPEAKER_02]: I doubt it.

26:37.059 --> 26:38.440
[SPEAKER_02]: I just am not a fan of what if.

26:38.500 --> 26:41.422
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm a bad guy that we were viewing a lot of comic.

26:43.114 --> 26:43.995
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, okay, great.

26:44.035 --> 26:53.983
[SPEAKER_00]: Next time you can bow out for the four minutes it takes talk about the me time let's talk about the ring the man who beat the man number one Yeah, I'm extra right gale Simone.

26:54.604 --> 27:04.251
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I at least a ramboli This guy's killing it by the way gale Simone going into just like a straight-up fun boxing comic.

27:04.572 --> 27:06.193
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah What do you say Pete?

27:06.777 --> 27:07.297
[SPEAKER_02]: Why not?

27:07.437 --> 27:12.240
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, this is just, I saw the team on this and I got very excited to read it.

27:12.780 --> 27:19.184
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, like, here's the thing about boxing, you know, when we see if those punches in that action, you don't feel that.

27:19.204 --> 27:26.488
[SPEAKER_02]: The art did such a great job of like really amputing up those giant fun of like punch moments.

27:26.628 --> 27:28.509
[SPEAKER_02]: And I feel like such a cool way.

27:29.330 --> 27:30.631
[SPEAKER_02]: And the action in this

27:36.088 --> 27:37.609
[SPEAKER_02]: This is why I love comics, man.

27:37.909 --> 27:39.491
[SPEAKER_02]: We hit cool weird stuff like this.

27:39.531 --> 27:41.432
[SPEAKER_02]: That's not something you might think.

27:41.592 --> 27:43.313
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, I think this is great.

27:44.594 --> 27:45.775
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I enjoyed this as well.

27:45.855 --> 27:51.679
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's interesting, like, is Gail Simone a big, but I had me asking so many questions in my head about Gail Simone as a creator.

27:52.240 --> 27:53.581
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't know if that's necessary.

27:53.601 --> 27:54.501
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you, no somebody.

27:54.521 --> 28:01.466
[SPEAKER_02]: If you think you've interviewed somebody about your times, you think maybe you understand how their mind works and then they go through something like this at you.

28:01.487 --> 28:03.068
[SPEAKER_02]: And you're like, yeah, this is cool.

28:03.878 --> 28:08.603
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe she's front-rowing Vegas, watching the Pugillus beat the shit out of each other.

28:08.643 --> 28:10.404
[SPEAKER_02]: Come on, you call that a pudge?

28:11.005 --> 28:12.026
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

28:12.046 --> 28:16.210
[SPEAKER_00]: You could definitely see the passion for that here in the storytelling.

28:16.230 --> 28:19.493
[SPEAKER_00]: The arts, the dynamic and fun feeling very modern.

28:19.513 --> 28:23.357
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, it was a fun surprise in the stack.

28:23.817 --> 28:24.077
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

28:24.318 --> 28:25.419
[SPEAKER_02]: A solid first dish.

28:26.181 --> 28:31.163
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk about a comic that we've talked about this character once or twice in our lives.

28:31.203 --> 28:32.023
[SPEAKER_00]: Batman number 10.

28:32.163 --> 28:32.623
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, my.

28:33.383 --> 28:35.944
[SPEAKER_00]: From DC Comics, you're by Matt Fraction, our by Jorge Jimenez.

28:36.904 --> 28:48.788
[SPEAKER_00]: We are dealing with the aftermath of some stuff, a plan that led to the capture of Oracle last issue, or maybe that was two ago, and they're dealing with the repercussions.

28:49.328 --> 28:53.389
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, city turned against Batman, really demanding to be captured.

28:53.469 --> 28:54.890
[SPEAKER_00]: Pete, what did you think about this?

28:55.405 --> 29:14.522
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, this is great, and I kind of, first off, a very cool cover, but a touching ish man, you know, Batman has a plan, it's going into action here, you know, you get to see this kind of oracle message, and I hope green arrow saw that and it's taking fucking notes, that's how you give loved ones heads up.

29:15.022 --> 29:17.084
[SPEAKER_02]: about fucking plans that you have, man.

29:17.384 --> 29:21.168
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, just pick up the phone, you make a fucking video, call you, send it out to your friends.

29:21.528 --> 29:22.369
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, just the heads up.

29:22.389 --> 29:23.670
[SPEAKER_02]: Just about to get crazy.

29:23.990 --> 29:25.592
[SPEAKER_02]: You know how super heroine goes.

29:25.952 --> 29:27.814
[SPEAKER_02]: I got to do some fucked up shit for a while.

29:27.874 --> 29:28.375
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't fuck.

29:28.435 --> 29:29.476
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not really me.

29:29.516 --> 29:30.436
[SPEAKER_02]: You know how it is.

29:30.677 --> 29:32.378
[SPEAKER_02]: You'll get it by the end, you know?

29:32.478 --> 29:32.739
[SPEAKER_02]: So.

29:33.557 --> 29:34.398
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, so I'm so sorry.

29:34.598 --> 29:39.161
[SPEAKER_00]: I passed out when Pete started talking about green arrow again, so sorry.

29:39.401 --> 29:41.523
[SPEAKER_00]: Did he how long how long was I out?

29:41.543 --> 29:45.266
[SPEAKER_00]: Just for a couple of 30 seconds, four minutes, seven hours.

29:46.066 --> 29:48.328
[SPEAKER_00]: Hard to tell Pete still holding on to a graduation.

29:48.348 --> 29:55.133
[SPEAKER_02]: Fun glass panel though, and yeah, it was almost like a cool like pin up panel reminded me of some old school like.

29:55.833 --> 29:57.274
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yes, definitely.

29:57.314 --> 30:00.236
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like Matt fraction knows what he's doing with every fraction.

30:00.296 --> 30:00.717
[SPEAKER_02]: The sky.

30:01.247 --> 30:05.712
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he's not a fraction to me, he's a whole, my whole life.

30:06.442 --> 30:10.525
[SPEAKER_00]: He's not three quarters, he's four over four.

30:11.606 --> 30:23.794
[SPEAKER_00]: This is called money and blood, and we are seeing, like I said, the repercussions of that man and that family that's under fire from the local police, we just get a lot of great scenic action here.

30:23.814 --> 30:27.316
[SPEAKER_00]: We get some good commissioner court and stuff, Fendell Savage, turn in the screw.

30:27.336 --> 30:31.619
[SPEAKER_02]: Just like great looks, you know, like some walking by, somebody in there.

30:31.659 --> 30:33.921
[SPEAKER_02]: Just like, oh, just great moments.

30:33.941 --> 30:34.662
[SPEAKER_02]: This feels good.

30:35.442 --> 30:41.901
[SPEAKER_00]: The Jorge MnR is just so good, it's really excellent and working so well, we get

30:45.327 --> 31:01.454
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a series of scenes where Vandal Savage is lying, and I love the way it mirrors reality, the way that our media is just rewards absolutely unnecessary heightening and lying about any sort of stat that anyone's saying.

31:02.555 --> 31:06.097
[SPEAKER_00]: We get a great page here that I thought was really cool.

31:06.377 --> 31:09.958
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a moment where Batman sees Catwoman from like a cross.

31:09.978 --> 31:10.859
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah.

31:11.639 --> 31:20.324
[SPEAKER_00]: they have a little look and they go off and it's interesting how like a story like this of book like this has to react to the backcat.

31:20.404 --> 31:23.425
[SPEAKER_00]: Backcat was a flag in the ground of a story.

31:23.646 --> 31:30.930
[SPEAKER_00]: That man doesn't get to be happy or in love very often and I feel like we're just constantly doing the repercussions of that and I love this.

31:31.190 --> 31:33.951
[SPEAKER_00]: What a great use of a page and a comic that we get here.

31:35.412 --> 31:36.793
[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, then we're left with a

31:38.456 --> 31:58.173
[SPEAKER_00]: interesting paradigm for Batman, who is pushing back, trying to win back the uh... it's almost like a people pain prism you know i mean it's almost like a pain prism and for those of you who don't know we're talking about um... he just keeps talking about the pain prism, it's something he believes in, now it's his religion, he worships the pain prism uh... so beware

31:59.207 --> 32:03.429
[SPEAKER_00]: It's more seriously, that's from our interview with curf pears on the live show.

32:03.449 --> 32:04.409
[SPEAKER_00]: Nice adjustments.

32:04.469 --> 32:04.649
[SPEAKER_00]: Nice.

32:04.669 --> 32:05.369
[SPEAKER_00]: Nice.

32:05.429 --> 32:06.790
[SPEAKER_00]: Please check that out.

32:07.150 --> 32:07.510
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's move on.

32:07.530 --> 32:08.911
[SPEAKER_00]: They won't talk about another comic.

32:08.931 --> 32:10.791
[SPEAKER_00]: Radiium Black number 42 from the movie.

32:10.891 --> 32:11.071
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh man.

32:11.131 --> 32:15.893
[SPEAKER_00]: Hyl Higgins and Joe Clark are by Mike Costa.

32:16.473 --> 32:19.955
[SPEAKER_00]: This comic has been dealing with a lot of big, continuity stuff.

32:20.495 --> 32:26.297
[SPEAKER_00]: We have the inter, the politics of inter-dimensional immigrants coming over and the people

32:27.328 --> 32:46.122
[SPEAKER_00]: We have a really in black going up against the corporate interest, a corporate superhero bringing in the team, everything starting to crumble here and we're getting the how it feels to be a hero when your villain is an idea more than it is someone you can punch.

32:47.308 --> 32:48.789
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I see.

32:49.229 --> 32:53.551
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it's hard to talk about this book because it continues to be amazing.

32:54.131 --> 33:04.777
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, the art is unbelievable, a fantastic last panel, funny line that kind of undercut the thing like, you grew a beard, just hilarious.

33:05.637 --> 33:07.158
[SPEAKER_02]: I love all the small moments.

33:07.198 --> 33:08.498
[SPEAKER_02]: I love all the big moments.

33:08.939 --> 33:14.661
[SPEAKER_02]: This is trying stuff, this is doing stuff, this comic continues to be a leader in the art forum.

33:17.277 --> 33:22.059
[SPEAKER_02]: I've grown out of words to describe it, but man, I look forward to every time this is in the stack.

33:22.519 --> 33:24.300
[SPEAKER_02]: I get excited when I read this book.

33:24.460 --> 33:27.421
[SPEAKER_02]: That's a great thing when you know a book's going to be great.

33:27.441 --> 33:29.902
[SPEAKER_02]: You're excited to pick it up and see what's going to go down.

33:29.962 --> 33:30.742
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a great feeling.

33:31.702 --> 33:35.224
[SPEAKER_00]: Pete, I want to do turn the tables on you and do a little bit of trivia here.

33:35.344 --> 33:39.045
[SPEAKER_00]: I need you to translate this line from this issue of radiant black.

33:40.225 --> 33:44.047
[SPEAKER_00]: Jesus Christ, have I been getting yeeted by Skibidiohile Rizzlers?

33:44.427 --> 33:44.687
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

33:45.945 --> 33:53.232
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's just, it's just tired of why guys fools step into on me, I mean, so it's just, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, he's over it.

33:54.048 --> 33:54.728
[SPEAKER_00]: Wow, interesting.

33:54.788 --> 33:58.330
[SPEAKER_00]: Pete did convert it into his language, which, uh, shines to that.

33:59.030 --> 34:06.454
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, a lot of very internet, uh, speak in here, or like, I guess just Gen Z speak, which I think is funny.

34:06.974 --> 34:09.456
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, it feels, uh, I'll give it.

34:09.796 --> 34:11.897
[SPEAKER_02]: How often do you say, skinny toilet a day?

34:11.917 --> 34:13.037
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, it's it.

34:13.057 --> 34:18.100
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't like say that when I see it, and someone's like, hey, I was at Comic Con.

34:18.160 --> 34:18.740
[SPEAKER_00]: What is this?

34:18.900 --> 34:20.141
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, that's a skinny toilet.

34:22.578 --> 34:32.295
[SPEAKER_00]: Or at any sort of thing where there's a guy with a toilet because everyone sends that picture around you've gotten it from every person Who goes in does that was like look at his cool toilet.

34:32.335 --> 34:33.337
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like scabby toilet.

34:33.357 --> 34:33.998
[SPEAKER_00]: They're like what's that?

34:34.318 --> 34:35.981
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like never mind Google one thing

34:38.206 --> 35:05.296
[SPEAKER_00]: but this is fun the reveal at the last page of this issue of writing black was very cool excited for the issue but let's jump forward into the future talk of the documentary toilet move on yeah close up the skimmy toilet where skimmy Pete skimmy lives with the risler as established i have met the risler uh multiple occasions he he'll go anywhere and do anything he has his phone in his hand often

35:06.125 --> 35:12.290
[SPEAKER_02]: I was disappointed with his Arizona drink, a risal berry, you know, I had high hopes for that.

35:12.791 --> 35:15.633
[SPEAKER_00]: Really, it high hopes for his, what do you call that?

35:15.813 --> 35:18.215
[SPEAKER_00]: His taste in Arizona beverage.

35:18.696 --> 35:19.997
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

35:20.357 --> 35:25.021
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you had high hopes for the risolers beverage.

35:25.061 --> 35:33.308
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, great, great, great is great for Arizona, you know, I thought maybe they would kind of give us something like that along those lines.

35:33.777 --> 35:44.283
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you think the reserve meticulously tastes tested a lot of different, if you say you're going to name a drink after me, you're giving me the keys, and I'm going mad scientist.

35:44.383 --> 35:46.624
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm creating something crazy, you know what I mean?

35:47.144 --> 35:52.347
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's going to probably cost you more money than you'll make, but man, I'm going to come with something.

35:52.872 --> 35:58.333
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, looking forward to Whit-Wiz Mountain news from Peel-Page coming down the line too.

35:58.353 --> 35:58.993
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I thought.

35:59.013 --> 36:00.214
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not gonna tell you to try that, bro.

36:00.294 --> 36:01.894
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I call a thick soda.

36:02.854 --> 36:04.935
[SPEAKER_00]: He can't put it off any longer.

36:05.035 --> 36:13.436
[SPEAKER_00]: We have to talk about side-bath number five from Marvel Comics, or my Alex Pactadol, Art by Rojay and Tonyo.

36:13.856 --> 36:17.197
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the final issue of Cyclops Redemption series.

36:17.737 --> 36:20.578
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think this issue really landed the plane.

36:21.398 --> 36:46.855
[SPEAKER_00]: Science alone facing off against the reverse to save some mutants that have been forced into hard labor underneath the reverse and what I love about this specifically is Cyclops has had his visor broken he hasn't had access to his powers how he wants them he's been flying blind quite literally and in this issue he wins by his force and power as Cyclops a

36:47.595 --> 36:59.160
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, make a high power level mutant, but he also wins by just being a good leader, and he steps up This is something that I think Pete you've been really knocking sideclubs But I don't know.

36:59.520 --> 37:11.025
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this issue proves it at least a little bit That he is doing a good job in this issue if you had to read this issue with a vacuum Pete I think this is a good leader

37:12.042 --> 37:13.763
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and disagree with you.

37:13.783 --> 37:20.245
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, there's a touching hug in here, which I don't think he deserves, but I think he... Yeah, he deserves a hug.

37:21.065 --> 37:22.186
[SPEAKER_00]: How do you not deserve a hug?

37:22.806 --> 37:25.487
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, when you're cyclops, you know, and you're fucking shit up.

37:27.048 --> 37:39.893
[SPEAKER_02]: I think the arts fantastic, you know, sometimes people like a leader who struggles with leadership and fails and unfortunately,

37:42.179 --> 37:46.282
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, but, uh, yeah, I, you know, I don't know what to tell you about this character.

37:47.223 --> 37:48.584
[SPEAKER_02]: Great use of the color red.

37:50.085 --> 37:51.426
[SPEAKER_00]: Wow, efficient for compliments.

37:51.906 --> 38:09.979
[SPEAKER_00]: If you don't have an incredible Cyclops bias like Peela Page says, I think you will like this five issue series and I hope it signals more for the future of Cyclops the character that I think has been in need of just some like good storytelling engine work to get him

38:12.545 --> 38:17.869
[SPEAKER_00]: But let's talk about a comic that Pete, I know, loves more than the last one, FM on a brief dark one.

38:17.929 --> 38:21.912
[SPEAKER_00]: I kill a suit of comic art by David Lopez.

38:21.972 --> 38:39.264
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the end of the first major arc from FML, where a lot of the family issues of everyone being separated and struggling to get back together in a town gone crazy comes to at least a resting place, Pete, what do you say?

38:39.874 --> 38:41.054
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, first off, fun cover.

38:41.094 --> 38:54.259
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, get you pumped for the insides, touching ending, love this comic, love the creativity, the character designs are amazing, the coloring, the vibe, this is just spectacular comics.

38:54.859 --> 38:58.561
[SPEAKER_02]: It just makes me happy, it just makes me happy, it just makes me happy.

39:00.357 --> 39:04.941
[SPEAKER_02]: I just think that, yeah, this is, they do such a great job with this comic.

39:05.001 --> 39:10.425
[SPEAKER_02]: The storytelling is the next level, the creativity just jumps off the page.

39:10.825 --> 39:12.626
[SPEAKER_02]: I just think this is a blast of a comic.

39:13.487 --> 39:19.291
[SPEAKER_00]: What I love about this, especially, is I don't know exactly what Kelly's due to comics life is.

39:21.078 --> 39:38.987
[SPEAKER_00]: my interpretation is this is taking a family's life and heightening out of reality and showing just how chaotic and wild, stressful but also fun it is to be a family and raise kids in this modern world.

39:39.688 --> 39:39.948
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a

39:40.806 --> 39:55.518
[SPEAKER_00]: And it just so it works so our David Lopez art is excellent really gets to embrace all the chaotic situations that everyone's in It's emotional and it's funny and yet it feel I identify with it even how height it is so

39:56.651 --> 39:58.292
[SPEAKER_00]: That's that's an exciting comic.

39:58.332 --> 40:04.637
[SPEAKER_00]: So very excited for the next arc and what we're going to get from that was the great Eight issue arc.

40:04.897 --> 40:18.786
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's move on and talk about Harley and Ivy life and crimes number six This is of course from DC comics It is written and drawn by Erica Henderson This issue is all goo all different peat.

40:19.006 --> 40:20.868
[SPEAKER_00]: You love both of those things

40:21.494 --> 40:25.655
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this is a cool cover, it's the final issue, which is kind of sad.

40:26.275 --> 40:34.077
[SPEAKER_02]: I love the art style, I love the vibe of this comic, just great clay face in this, love the ending so sweet.

40:34.797 --> 40:36.638
[SPEAKER_02]: They're great together, I love these too.

40:36.738 --> 40:42.899
[SPEAKER_02]: So this is just, uh, I think the whole kind of look and feel of this is just, I mean, really this cover.

40:42.919 --> 40:46.680
[SPEAKER_02]: This is, if this doesn't get you excited to re-common, so I don't know what the fuck you're doing, man.

40:48.133 --> 40:58.865
[SPEAKER_00]: the arts fantastic and the story really it's it's such a romantic you know we talk a lot about uh about all right guess we talk a lot about romance we talk a lot about everything but p.e.

40:58.885 --> 41:08.395
[SPEAKER_00]: you talk a lot about romcom's uh romance comics were a huge genre for a large portion of the time comics been have been being published

41:08.856 --> 41:17.686
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not a thing anymore as much, but this comic, especially I think, is a great romance comic that is fun, funny, action oriented.

41:17.706 --> 41:19.688
[SPEAKER_00]: The use of clay phase here is just great.

41:21.290 --> 41:30.600
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a superhero story, but at its core, like I'm saying, it is the love affair between Harley and Ivy and it's awesome.

41:31.701 --> 41:32.822
[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely worth the pick up.

41:33.063 --> 41:44.458
[SPEAKER_00]: It's very sweet and the words the end are crossed out and replaced with Will be back Is heartening for those of us like Pete and I who are fans of this book

41:45.533 --> 41:48.295
[SPEAKER_00]: Speaking of fans, this textbook is one I'm a fan of.

41:48.315 --> 41:54.259
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk Royale's number three from Image Comics written by Derek Kirk Kim, R by Jacob Perez.

41:55.260 --> 41:59.203
[SPEAKER_00]: This comic about is moving, it's covering so much ground.

41:59.223 --> 42:01.824
[SPEAKER_00]: So quickly, I can't believe it's only the third issue we're getting here.

42:02.385 --> 42:06.448
[SPEAKER_00]: It's two guys who are out.

42:07.088 --> 42:08.849
[SPEAKER_00]: They are running a scam.

42:08.929 --> 42:12.672
[SPEAKER_00]: They are secretly able to communicate telepathically to each other.

42:13.090 --> 42:23.692
[SPEAKER_00]: which makes them perfect to run some numbers on a casino but they get caught a girl that one of the guys likes gets kidnapped and he wants to save her.

42:24.132 --> 42:46.246
[SPEAKER_00]: some struggles happen here ending in something quite disastrous that I truly don't know what's going to happen coming out of this issue, this issue into the next, this comic constantly surprising, great writing, great dialogue that crackles funny while also being great action and emotional storytelling, this series has really surprised me and I'm really enjoying.

42:47.079 --> 42:47.739
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree.

42:48.079 --> 42:49.940
[SPEAKER_02]: This is just fantastic.

42:50.100 --> 42:56.021
[SPEAKER_02]: Cool cover, love the art style, love the premise, cool characters, love the twist and turns.

42:56.581 --> 42:58.622
[SPEAKER_02]: This is an absolute blast of a comic book.

42:58.662 --> 43:07.124
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like for this comic to work, we really kind of kind of ride with the main characters and the build that really buy into this mind reading thing.

43:07.184 --> 43:09.624
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, the looks they give each other

43:13.045 --> 43:16.186
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you're rolling deep with these guys and, you know, pulling form.

43:16.226 --> 43:20.368
[SPEAKER_02]: So I think it's a very exciting idea and really well executed.

43:20.788 --> 43:25.791
[SPEAKER_00]: You're rolling in the deep, a song that Pete is always humming under a slightly under his breath.

43:26.551 --> 43:33.174
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's hit up the X-Men number 29 from Marvel Comics, run by Gale Simone, boxing fan Gale Simone.

43:33.194 --> 43:35.575
[SPEAKER_02]: Gale Simone, legendary boxer.

43:36.295 --> 43:56.680
[SPEAKER_00]: Legendary, Pugeless, Art by Aluciana Vecchio, in this comic, we've had a bit of a switcheru with some characters where we've gotten the classic new memes that have been showing up to give some trouble to the X-Men down south while we're getting some other characters move to other places.

43:56.700 --> 43:59.540
[SPEAKER_00]: We're focusing a little bit more on Jubilee in this issue, which is

44:03.201 --> 44:03.942
[SPEAKER_02]: This is fun.

44:04.502 --> 44:10.786
[SPEAKER_02]: I love the adventure we get here, the adventure, our Wolverine stabs the one through the face, which was really cool.

44:11.287 --> 44:13.888
[SPEAKER_02]: Uncle Adam, we got that that was really badass moment.

44:14.829 --> 44:16.430
[SPEAKER_02]: Great art, great action.

44:16.510 --> 44:17.571
[SPEAKER_02]: This is fun.

44:17.951 --> 44:23.915
[SPEAKER_02]: This is the die all AI scum, was hilarious thing.

44:24.055 --> 44:26.337
[SPEAKER_02]: This to me is great, X-Men stuff.

44:27.998 --> 44:30.899
[SPEAKER_02]: that kind of the joy and vibe that you get from this.

44:31.239 --> 44:48.584
[SPEAKER_02]: And you can tell it's written by someone who appreciates, you know, boxing and kind of working and you know, left and right, you know, like the, the kind of beats of this comic, you can tell it just really smooth with someone who knows and has stamina in the comics industry.

44:48.644 --> 44:51.925
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, it's really, it's all jumping out of the page.

44:52.285 --> 44:52.885
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm loving it.

44:54.025 --> 44:55.907
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, yeah, I mean, I like this.

44:56.047 --> 44:56.567
[SPEAKER_00]: It's wild.

44:56.587 --> 45:04.093
[SPEAKER_00]: We've talked a lot about how Gales X-Men team is Chris Claremonti and that they're just exploring weird things.

45:04.613 --> 45:12.560
[SPEAKER_00]: We get a bit of a resolution on the gray-mulk and prison storyline that's been running throughout all of the after-the-ashes stuff.

45:13.580 --> 45:17.724
[SPEAKER_00]: It's said the post-gricosa storytelling in the X-Men universe.

45:18.164 --> 45:21.867
[SPEAKER_00]: And I got to say that was a little bit, I thought it was going to be a bigger thing.

45:22.955 --> 45:24.336
[SPEAKER_00]: was less of a big thing here.

45:25.116 --> 45:29.438
[SPEAKER_00]: What I did like about it is aside from the the rogue, new mutant stuff.

45:30.199 --> 45:37.303
[SPEAKER_00]: I do like, when I say cry and having her be the character focus here, she's very cool.

45:38.623 --> 45:41.685
[SPEAKER_00]: Though I forget, I had forgotten, but it seems to be true.

45:41.825 --> 45:43.926
[SPEAKER_00]: She's dating quick silver.

45:46.694 --> 45:58.438
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, which always seems I've when I spread that hair was like, what I was like right But that is what's happening and then I can't click silver date.

45:58.478 --> 45:59.258
[SPEAKER_02]: What's up with it?

46:00.059 --> 46:00.359
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

46:00.379 --> 46:07.521
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess I thought he was sort of older and Monet Saint Croix's famously pretty young Wow, I don't know.

46:07.541 --> 46:09.962
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not trying to age shame, but it seems like you are man

46:10.696 --> 46:17.438
[SPEAKER_00]: It just feels like a real made December thing that I don't quite understand, but we get a indication about the end of this issue.

46:17.458 --> 46:22.940
[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to see more of Monet and Quicksilver in the while pages of this book, and I'm down.

46:23.000 --> 46:28.542
[SPEAKER_02]: Gale Simone, we trust and I'm excited to see which is going to do nice.

46:28.562 --> 46:28.802
[SPEAKER_00]: 100%.

46:29.162 --> 46:30.303
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not knocking it.

46:30.443 --> 46:32.643
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think all of these things are interesting.

46:33.004 --> 46:34.084
[SPEAKER_00]: We also get gambit.

46:34.484 --> 46:36.465
[SPEAKER_00]: There's something that happened at the end of the issue where we're

46:42.083 --> 46:45.106
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, you don't normally picture a camera with drag your right wings.

46:46.307 --> 46:47.608
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, oh, you normally do.

46:48.008 --> 46:48.248
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

46:48.749 --> 46:50.450
[SPEAKER_00]: You're like, what's he hiding out of that trench coat?

46:51.111 --> 46:51.791
[SPEAKER_02]: Drag your wings.

46:52.011 --> 46:52.672
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

46:53.493 --> 46:54.954
[SPEAKER_02]: He's got them D wings, bro.

46:55.975 --> 46:57.796
[SPEAKER_00]: He's got them D wings, bro.

46:58.517 --> 47:00.098
[SPEAKER_00]: You never know what he's going to be on board with.

47:00.879 --> 47:03.901
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, let's talk another comic that I love.

47:03.941 --> 47:06.563
[SPEAKER_00]: Adventure time PB and Marcy's in fina mixtape number one,

47:11.648 --> 47:14.029
[SPEAKER_00]: This they've been doing this a pride special.

47:14.990 --> 47:33.021
[SPEAKER_00]: We've been getting we've got to at least another one of these standalone PB and Marcie's stories which I really like this one really leans into the the music side of it we get some a lot of songwriting happening between the two and then being trapped by the

47:36.191 --> 47:48.583
[SPEAKER_00]: The little fights that they are having in their relationship while at the same time, leaning a little perhaps a little too hard and the idealized and nostalgic version of their relationship that has gone to the past.

47:49.303 --> 47:58.372
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think for characters that are targeted to younger people, that's a very like, I've been in a relationship for a while, type of storyline.

47:59.756 --> 48:05.682
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well, you know, Rosy Knights writing to the, you know, top of intelligence, which is great.

48:06.803 --> 48:09.846
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm a sucker for a mixed tape, so I'll already, I'm in.

48:10.326 --> 48:14.190
[SPEAKER_02]: This is cool because it's like adventure time, but kind of doing a little different.

48:14.210 --> 48:21.396
[SPEAKER_02]: So it feels like the art still lives in the world and the characters are still on brand, but we're kind of doing some different stuff here.

48:22.357 --> 48:29.739
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, we get some evil teddy bear stuff, so adorable, yet badass, I think this is a real fun book.

48:30.259 --> 48:32.000
[SPEAKER_00]: Just a little evil teddy bear stuff.

48:32.440 --> 48:33.140
[SPEAKER_00]: Am I agree?

48:33.320 --> 48:34.460
[SPEAKER_00]: I did really enjoy this.

48:34.921 --> 48:42.063
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought the use of different mixed-aped graphics in here to tell the music side of the story that was cool.

48:42.563 --> 48:50.705
[SPEAKER_00]: And just the visual presentation of music in this comic was well done, since that's such a big part of the story itself.

48:51.792 --> 49:16.322
[SPEAKER_00]: were you a big uh... make state that i mean i was it's sort of mostly post tape in my life i'm not nearly as old as peel pages as we will learn later this summer uh... but i uh... i did something called cd i guess i can explain it's like uh... tiny record okay yeah i'm a sense no talking about thanks for your is an old time you turn so i can follow what you were saying

49:16.760 --> 49:22.046
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, here's just folks if you didn't listen live show, Pete's out here fighting wood trucks in his backyard.

49:22.326 --> 49:25.009
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm here in New York living that fast city lifestyle.

49:25.390 --> 49:28.733
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so I got to listen and see these like all the cool kids.

49:28.814 --> 49:30.596
[SPEAKER_00]: That's why I got to tell him about the risler.

49:31.606 --> 49:33.307
[SPEAKER_00]: and stuff like that.

49:34.367 --> 49:39.288
[SPEAKER_00]: But yes, enjoy this, love a mix eating, if nothing else.

49:40.388 --> 49:51.291
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk absolute green lantern for number 15 for DC Comics, and by all you being art by Sid Cotian, Pete, what do you say here?

49:52.051 --> 49:55.212
[SPEAKER_00]: This absolute green lantern's stuff is wild and different.

49:55.775 --> 50:02.217
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you can't disagree with that but let me say for myself like it's good.

50:02.957 --> 50:07.578
[SPEAKER_00]: I this is like a little bit of the outsider absolute title.

50:07.798 --> 50:09.159
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a very controversial.

50:09.179 --> 50:18.601
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like a fair number of people on our discord are weighing in on it which if you're not a member of our patron discord jump in this where we talk about

50:25.063 --> 50:30.105
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a little bit of an outsider of the absolute books, which are wildly successful, but I do like it.

50:30.225 --> 50:42.609
[SPEAKER_00]: I think arguing is pushing the green lantern spectrum ideas into a different place and taking a spin on the idea that like, oh, this absolute universe is just worse.

50:42.909 --> 50:49.131
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just darker and making it weirder rather than darker, which I think is I like those ideas.

50:49.805 --> 50:50.425
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree.

50:50.486 --> 50:52.887
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, we're talking about a big picture like that.

50:52.927 --> 50:54.669
[SPEAKER_02]: That sounds good and fun.

50:55.489 --> 51:00.013
[SPEAKER_02]: But for this issue, cool cover, I really love the use of colors in this.

51:00.033 --> 51:05.497
[SPEAKER_02]: This is awesome, a fun way to kind of highlight emotions and actions.

51:06.177 --> 51:10.260
[SPEAKER_02]: We got this kind of green and red, kind of holiday colors going on here.

51:11.281 --> 51:12.762
[SPEAKER_02]: Fun last panel, we're veal.

51:14.624 --> 51:22.587
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, I'm not sure if that is like a, who I think it is, but, um, what do you mean?

51:24.948 --> 51:29.009
[SPEAKER_02]: It looks like a robotics and that's true, but I don't know if that's actually who it is.

51:29.910 --> 51:30.310
[SPEAKER_00]: Hmm.

51:31.190 --> 51:31.871
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think so.

51:32.451 --> 51:32.891
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

51:32.971 --> 51:37.072
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, sorry if I suppose anything, but yeah.

51:38.757 --> 51:39.638
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, I grew with you.

51:39.658 --> 51:48.703
[SPEAKER_02]: I like I like comics that are taking big swings and yeah, they're, you know, absolute Batman and Andrew Wonder Woman and Absolute Martian man.

51:48.743 --> 51:52.425
[SPEAKER_02]: How many are the real kind of ten polls and killing the game also?

51:52.465 --> 51:53.346
[SPEAKER_02]: Absolutely Superman.

51:53.926 --> 51:57.929
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, it's nice to have some.

51:58.009 --> 51:59.189
[SPEAKER_00]: Did you talk about Absolute Batman?

51:59.509 --> 52:00.010
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I did.

52:00.030 --> 52:01.010
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you make Martian men?

52:01.391 --> 52:01.591
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.

52:01.811 --> 52:02.311
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.

52:02.351 --> 52:02.972
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe flash.

52:03.032 --> 52:03.492
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you mention?

52:03.892 --> 52:04.272
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't.

52:04.452 --> 52:04.793
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't.

52:04.953 --> 52:08.535
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's hard when you check out and then try to check back in, you know what I mean?

52:08.695 --> 52:10.957
[SPEAKER_00]: I would never check out people.

52:11.297 --> 52:14.999
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm always a resident in Hothelpe, I would always check in.

52:15.540 --> 52:15.860
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

52:18.622 --> 52:22.304
[SPEAKER_00]: I personally heard you said, you named all of them except for one.

52:24.165 --> 52:31.030
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, anyways, I'm glad that this one is taking swings and doing some weird stuff and kind of poking boundaries and trying stuff.

52:32.118 --> 52:34.520
[SPEAKER_00]: poke in boundaries, the Peela page story.

52:35.381 --> 52:37.824
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's refocus on your memoir, Pete.

52:37.864 --> 52:38.805
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what we need to get.

52:39.305 --> 52:42.308
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I want to be at the top of the stack in 2020.

52:44.350 --> 52:46.813
[SPEAKER_02]: My memoir is gonna be a comic, is that what you're saying?

52:47.434 --> 52:49.636
[SPEAKER_00]: And then, necessarily, it might just be pictures.

52:49.796 --> 52:51.137
[SPEAKER_00]: It might be a series of puller rights.

52:52.619 --> 52:55.602
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, if my memoir is gonna be all patients, no words, man.

52:56.610 --> 52:57.551
[SPEAKER_00]: not a single word.

52:57.831 --> 52:59.313
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not a memoir.

52:59.493 --> 53:01.376
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a scrapbook.

53:01.476 --> 53:03.518
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk about the local councils.

53:04.439 --> 53:08.884
[SPEAKER_00]: Lucky devil's number eight from which comics are in by Charles Soul are by Brian Brown.

53:09.244 --> 53:09.705
[SPEAKER_00]: Come on.

53:10.546 --> 53:12.348
[SPEAKER_00]: This story continues to escalate.

53:12.588 --> 53:15.632
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to say the next issue is the last issue.

53:15.652 --> 53:16.453
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, don't say that.

53:16.893 --> 53:27.864
[SPEAKER_00]: I believe that's true corresponding to the nine levels of hell, very meticulously planned stories, these creators have laid out in this comic.

53:28.345 --> 53:36.092
[SPEAKER_00]: We have two devils who are demons who have been working with their humans upsetting the

53:37.645 --> 53:40.727
[SPEAKER_00]: the hell's bureaucracy in a lot of different ways.

53:40.767 --> 53:45.450
[SPEAKER_00]: We get some big shifts in the bureaucracy.

53:45.590 --> 53:48.372
[SPEAKER_00]: Hell is like literally falling apart at points in this issue.

53:49.592 --> 53:51.854
[SPEAKER_00]: Pete, what do you think about this?

53:52.454 --> 53:54.716
[SPEAKER_00]: This has been a very meticulous series.

53:54.956 --> 53:56.757
[SPEAKER_00]: It's moved at felt like a bit of a

54:02.163 --> 54:08.605
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, another great issue, I love the shit is getting crazy.

54:09.505 --> 54:19.547
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, we got a human in hell and lady tries by getting rid of her demon in the church, so really kind of throwing things against the wall here in a cool way.

54:19.667 --> 54:27.189
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's getting desperate, they're trying to make moves, shake their demons on their shoulders there, shake that demon.

54:28.229 --> 54:29.250
[SPEAKER_01]: Have you shaken your demons?

54:31.431 --> 54:34.854
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, I always shake my demons first thing I do when I get up in the morning.

54:35.355 --> 54:40.220
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, you have your shoulder devil just like, I'm in a little cage, thanks to your bed.

54:40.520 --> 54:41.221
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.

54:41.621 --> 54:43.683
[SPEAKER_00]: That's who you ask for takes on Cyclops, right?

54:44.449 --> 54:44.849
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.

54:44.950 --> 54:45.290
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.

54:46.051 --> 54:46.311
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

54:46.731 --> 54:54.920
[SPEAKER_02]: But a great last panel, fun twist, amazing art, the story is so very strong and interesting.

54:55.501 --> 54:59.225
[SPEAKER_02]: These two, when they get together and make a comic book, it's always awesome.

54:59.625 --> 55:01.267
[SPEAKER_02]: You're going to see what they come up with.

55:01.287 --> 55:05.011
[SPEAKER_02]: So two masters that work here and join the ride.

55:05.920 --> 55:32.415
[SPEAKER_00]: enjoying the ride let's ride on to ironman number six from our comics or my Joshua Williamson are by uh... juan kubal uh... now uh... we talked about uh... outside talk to Joshua Williamson about this very comic on your view that i think is going live either today or tomorrow so you will say it's like a long one and now we're checking out or we do no i would call it a good interview where we talked uh... to Josh about a lot of his great work

55:33.200 --> 55:53.300
[SPEAKER_00]: amongst them Ironman in this issue, we are dealing with, we talked to Josh, we talked about his unique take on Ironman, because it's not Robert Downey Jr., but it's not the Ironman we've seen in Marvel Comics lately, it's something different, and we're sort of seeing that in Sharpa leaf in this issue where

55:53.970 --> 56:07.716
[SPEAKER_00]: It's Tony Stark Ironman going up against Green Goblin, Norman Osborn, and his past wearing some Ironman armor back in the day, and so Spider-Man naturally shows up.

56:07.736 --> 56:10.637
[SPEAKER_00]: But interesting situation here.

56:11.037 --> 56:11.858
[SPEAKER_00]: How do you feel about this?

56:12.578 --> 56:15.359
[SPEAKER_00]: I was pleasantly surprised by the way this story went.

56:15.901 --> 56:18.963
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, to me it's all about the Spidey voice.

56:18.983 --> 56:21.544
[SPEAKER_02]: You got to nail that for me to kind of be on board.

56:21.604 --> 56:25.086
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, when he was yelling Mama Mia, I thought that was hilarious.

56:26.707 --> 56:31.870
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, the ghost saying I hate you and Spider-Man saying I get that a lot.

56:31.930 --> 56:37.414
[SPEAKER_02]: Just awesome banter, great kind of back and forth, really makes it a lot of fun.

56:37.994 --> 56:42.457
[SPEAKER_02]: I just think the action and this is awesome, great art of comfort.

56:43.177 --> 56:54.374
[SPEAKER_00]: cool team up I I was enjoying the crap out of this um yes uh agreed and i'm curious curious where we're going there's definitely some like

56:55.978 --> 57:16.343
[SPEAKER_00]: looking into the past and recent past for Iron Man while looking but still moving forward and I don't know what where we're headed but there's definitely like some conspiratorial like Tony Stark's in trouble we get a lot of other heroes weighing in on this and

57:17.548 --> 57:22.959
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, it's really, it's doing a good job of balancing the coiness of what that larger superstore is.

57:23.380 --> 57:27.127
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, still giving us a fun interesting issue in this issue, six.

57:28.109 --> 57:28.330
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

57:30.603 --> 57:33.544
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, Pete and I agree as always.

57:33.764 --> 57:35.545
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk the exercises.

57:35.565 --> 57:40.267
[SPEAKER_02]: Why don't you get back with the the white queen there That's what you you're pulling for dream.

57:40.787 --> 57:42.748
[SPEAKER_00]: I almost asked you about that and I was like.

57:43.668 --> 57:47.490
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, that's just me shit Yeah, I got you what I do with that.

57:48.410 --> 57:54.593
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't need to be out there being like hey, I want it's girlfriend to be her I feel like it's sort of like okay, relax

57:55.683 --> 57:58.465
[SPEAKER_00]: Relax guy look at you professional journalist.

57:58.845 --> 57:59.506
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a journalist.

57:59.546 --> 57:59.906
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's the thing.

57:59.946 --> 58:09.833
[SPEAKER_02]: I do want him to be I want them to be together And I just want to make a happen You could have you could have fought for that love, but you didn't

58:10.550 --> 58:11.750
[SPEAKER_00]: You think I would have really made a case?

58:12.631 --> 58:19.413
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk about making a case to take over the kingdom of the United Kingdom.

58:20.174 --> 58:26.456
[SPEAKER_00]: In the extra-exercises of Mad Buckingham Palace number three, might you be rid of by Hannah Rose May, art-by-cales-comansy.

58:27.096 --> 58:31.978
[SPEAKER_00]: This bringing this to an end, three issues.

58:32.638 --> 58:39.461
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like we were going for a larger story, it felt like, and then here we are, three issues in, and we reach a conclusion.

58:40.803 --> 58:42.344
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey man, sometimes all you need is three.

58:43.104 --> 58:44.905
[SPEAKER_02]: But I think this is cool cover.

58:45.405 --> 58:52.869
[SPEAKER_02]: I love this kind of like opening couple of panels, the choice to artistically make that palace seem so like epic and huge.

58:53.349 --> 58:59.952
[SPEAKER_02]: I just love that kind of like tone setting early on in the issue to kind of suck us in as readers.

59:00.013 --> 59:02.134
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's so great and smart.

59:02.674 --> 59:05.435
[SPEAKER_02]: Art has a creepiness to it that works really well.

59:05.955 --> 59:08.797
[SPEAKER_02]: So if you like to scary shit, I think this is your comic here.

59:10.125 --> 59:36.142
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I thought they, they really handled the exorcism well, and this was a, a sequel to the exorcism comic that took place at the White House, and they were able to tell a very different story, and I, I feel like our Theo character really gets elevated by the end here, and I really liked the way the story unfolded, weaving in some larger politics and bureaucracy ideas to just

59:37.516 --> 59:40.258
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, can someone take this demon out of this dude?

59:40.798 --> 59:42.320
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's solve this problem right now.

59:43.360 --> 59:44.041
[SPEAKER_00]: So it was good.

59:44.141 --> 59:48.004
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought this really was a good follow up with a very different feel.

59:48.504 --> 59:52.487
[SPEAKER_00]: And in the past, we've talked about things Alex was a little bit down on the R. I want to say.

59:52.507 --> 59:54.448
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not to put words in his mouth.

59:54.889 --> 59:55.769
[SPEAKER_00]: But I liked it.

59:55.789 --> 59:56.510
[SPEAKER_00]: It was very different.

59:56.550 --> 01:00:00.533
[SPEAKER_00]: And I like that it really gave a sense of place to this story.

01:00:00.915 --> 01:00:01.435
[SPEAKER_02]: That's great.

01:00:01.855 --> 01:00:02.096
[SPEAKER_00]: Great.

01:00:03.016 --> 01:00:13.921
[SPEAKER_00]: But let's rev it up and talk about Sonic the Hedgehog meets DC Comics, the Metal Legion number two from DC, even by Ian Flynn, Art by Adam Bryce Thomas.

01:00:14.942 --> 01:00:21.044
[SPEAKER_00]: We have all the DC villains are hanging out with Dr. Eggman.

01:00:21.164 --> 01:00:26.387
[SPEAKER_02]: What a crazy evil cover, that's very kind of cool on creepy in a way.

01:00:27.068 --> 01:00:37.012
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, and just to describe it, this issue is a real if you're a real egghead, you're going to love the way Dr. Eggman gets to be just a straight baller in this.

01:00:37.812 --> 01:00:50.318
[SPEAKER_00]: To give you a little context, the large of the bulk of this comic is made up of Catwoman flirting with Dr. Eggman, a man whose mustache is bigger than his head.

01:00:51.722 --> 01:01:08.931
[SPEAKER_00]: Well at the same time, we get a miss Rouge flirting with who's like the cat woman hedgehog Flirting with Lex Luthor in a way that made me think like, hey, you guys gonna fuck each other in this kind of what's he doing He likes you in this hedgehog cooking up

01:01:09.957 --> 01:01:15.499
[SPEAKER_00]: And now Pete, I want you to be able to separate yourself because I know you're struggling with a wood chuck situation at your home.

01:01:16.099 --> 01:01:20.021
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a true story, so that's like a hedgehog, but not as fast.

01:01:20.461 --> 01:01:26.083
[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't want you to take that out of this before we talk about the sexual interest in a hedgehog.

01:01:26.904 --> 01:01:29.427
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, this is a crazy, cool cover.

01:01:29.447 --> 01:01:31.549
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this is a fun.

01:01:31.569 --> 01:01:33.692
[SPEAKER_02]: I am surprised how much I liked this.

01:01:34.213 --> 01:01:36.816
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought this was kind of light in all the right ways.

01:01:37.396 --> 01:01:40.380
[SPEAKER_02]: Dr. Eggman dressing up like Lexus, there was hilarious.

01:01:40.800 --> 01:01:43.563
[SPEAKER_02]: The knuckles, Superman team up was really awesome.

01:01:44.444 --> 01:01:46.345
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm impressed with how much I liked that.

01:01:46.405 --> 01:01:47.585
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought that was really fun.

01:01:48.025 --> 01:01:48.885
[SPEAKER_02]: Love the ending.

01:01:48.905 --> 01:01:57.448
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, so far, you know, Lex looks like he's winning, but the time will tell, but yeah, this was cool.

01:01:57.508 --> 01:02:04.550
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought this was a fun use of the characters, and they were kind of really in on the joke, so I really enjoyed this.

01:02:05.732 --> 01:02:09.299
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope that Ms. Rouge can finally make Lexa with her happy.

01:02:09.881 --> 01:02:10.983
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, it's the time.

01:02:11.003 --> 01:02:11.965
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's got to, right?

01:02:12.005 --> 01:02:12.325
[SPEAKER_02]: Come on.

01:02:12.526 --> 01:02:13.107
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, exactly.

01:02:13.147 --> 01:02:13.868
[SPEAKER_00]: Fall in love.

01:02:14.269 --> 01:02:16.915
[SPEAKER_00]: Pete, same thing with your wood chuck.

01:02:18.618 --> 01:02:21.219
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk fantastic for number 12.

01:02:22.100 --> 01:02:23.300
[SPEAKER_00]: This is from Marvel Comics.

01:02:23.521 --> 01:02:27.983
[SPEAKER_00]: It is written by Ryan North, art by Pat Boutine.

01:02:28.703 --> 01:02:38.548
[SPEAKER_00]: This is, and the last issue, fit as if we're trying to time travel to escape a time disruption that occurred because of some aliens.

01:02:38.748 --> 01:02:42.190
[SPEAKER_00]: Only a couple made it out, and that is Mr. Fantasic and Johnny Storm.

01:02:42.210 --> 01:02:43.731
[SPEAKER_00]: They are back in Roman days.

01:02:45.058 --> 01:02:48.502
[SPEAKER_00]: trying to get by, trying to save the world against their own alien invasion.

01:02:48.522 --> 01:02:51.706
[SPEAKER_00]: That's happening back then.

01:02:51.726 --> 01:02:56.451
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, Rhinoarth has just been able to seamlessly do.

01:02:56.592 --> 01:03:00.016
[SPEAKER_00]: And then this issue, especially, is we've been real details from our world.

01:03:00.897 --> 01:03:26.089
[SPEAKER_00]: into these wild sci-fi fantastic four stories we get it again it still gets to be a fun story between read and Johnny being buds solve in the situation and unlocking an essential mystery from the ancient Roman our days as export to the artifact record that I know

01:03:27.631 --> 01:03:29.994
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean a hilarious note at the museum.

01:03:30.034 --> 01:03:40.426
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was really, such a, it's such a funny tone that I think really worked that the art does a great job of kind of embodying this lightness to this story.

01:03:40.446 --> 01:03:43.750
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I thought this was an enjoyable adventure.

01:03:44.570 --> 01:03:58.018
[SPEAKER_02]: and had a lot of cool, I liked the team work instead of the fighting, so I was just kind of impressed with this and kind of fun ending that I think made me like it even more.

01:03:58.738 --> 01:04:03.741
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, North Continuing to kill it, let's move on and talk about Rook Exodus number 10.

01:04:06.122 --> 01:04:15.148
[SPEAKER_00]: Rimbai Jeff Johns art by Jason Fabok, Pete, you love helmets where you can control animals, especially now.

01:04:15.228 --> 01:04:15.929
[SPEAKER_00]: Would you think about this?

01:04:16.589 --> 01:04:19.471
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I just, well, first of really cool cover.

01:04:19.491 --> 01:04:23.234
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I was moved by this.

01:04:23.274 --> 01:04:24.635
[SPEAKER_02]: There was kind of a sweet hug.

01:04:24.655 --> 01:04:30.299
[SPEAKER_02]: We had a couple hogging issues in the stack and the little ball this man, just we had a nice touching hug.

01:04:32.100 --> 01:04:34.202
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I love the story.

01:04:34.622 --> 01:04:44.349
[SPEAKER_02]: I also really agree with one of the characters when they were asking, Brooke, like, hey, Worcester Dogman, you roll with a three-headed monster dog.

01:04:44.609 --> 01:04:47.912
[SPEAKER_02]: And if you're a homies, you've got to roll with your homies.

01:04:47.952 --> 01:04:49.353
[SPEAKER_02]: So why isn't he around?

01:04:49.413 --> 01:04:51.094
[SPEAKER_02]: So that was really nice.

01:04:51.675 --> 01:04:57.299
[SPEAKER_02]: But I also think Brooke was being smart with the way he's interacting with the dairy guy.

01:04:59.360 --> 01:05:06.586
[SPEAKER_02]: I like it when characters are smart and books and making better decisions than I do in life.

01:05:06.646 --> 01:05:07.847
[SPEAKER_02]: So I like this.

01:05:09.068 --> 01:05:12.791
[SPEAKER_00]: Character is making better decisions than Peela Page, exciting idea.

01:05:13.532 --> 01:05:16.895
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of listening to the deer in this issue.

01:05:17.115 --> 01:05:18.376
[SPEAKER_02]: You got to listen to the deer, man.

01:05:19.675 --> 01:05:23.136
[SPEAKER_00]: We do get a heartfelt story as you alluded to Pete and that is fun.

01:05:24.156 --> 01:05:30.057
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I missed maybe the last issue of this and haven't been keeping up on maybe the last and one more.

01:05:30.517 --> 01:05:35.298
[SPEAKER_00]: So dropping into this, I'm curious, like, what's the larger story going at here?

01:05:35.738 --> 01:05:40.459
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember the end of the first arc and it felt like it was a real gathering the forces situation.

01:05:40.499 --> 01:05:45.200
[SPEAKER_00]: Are they about to take down this planet and finally,

01:05:46.428 --> 01:05:48.751
[SPEAKER_00]: sort of get all the animal head guys in line.

01:05:49.192 --> 01:05:52.696
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's hope so, because that's that's that thought what we were building towards.

01:05:52.736 --> 01:05:59.905
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, like a Voltron situation where the animal powers, you know, we can come together and win this war.

01:06:00.566 --> 01:06:03.049
[SPEAKER_00]: What animals would you have in your person of Voltron?

01:06:04.284 --> 01:06:04.764
[SPEAKER_00]: of animals.

01:06:05.385 --> 01:06:12.391
[SPEAKER_00]: And would it be a kind of like meat disaster where they all like link together and like, meat disaster?

01:06:13.112 --> 01:06:18.957
[SPEAKER_00]: Where they're physical, like flashes, squeezed into each other so that you can have your.

01:06:19.698 --> 01:06:21.739
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, you're talking about.

01:06:22.260 --> 01:06:25.163
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I feel like Pete, I think you would have an all cat vultron.

01:06:25.563 --> 01:06:25.983
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that?

01:06:26.003 --> 01:06:29.907
[SPEAKER_02]: I was thinking that's all wolf vultron, but okay.

01:06:30.553 --> 01:06:31.374
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe you can have one.

01:06:31.394 --> 01:06:37.337
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, if you're going to go with cat, I want to go with like a poema, you know, something like skeletal or had, do you know what I mean?

01:06:37.838 --> 01:06:39.759
[SPEAKER_00]: You want to do with skeletal or did?

01:06:40.619 --> 01:06:40.840
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

01:06:41.620 --> 01:06:42.040
[SPEAKER_00]: Interesting.

01:06:42.641 --> 01:06:44.582
[SPEAKER_00]: You've lived your life this way for quite some time.

01:06:44.922 --> 01:06:48.445
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm trying to build my own, just to make mountain over here, you know what I mean?

01:06:48.845 --> 01:06:51.807
[SPEAKER_00]: How are you feeling about Masters of the Universe?

01:06:51.827 --> 01:06:52.467
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you been watching?

01:06:52.507 --> 01:06:53.768
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you watched that trailer at least?

01:06:54.873 --> 01:06:56.736
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to see it, man.

01:06:57.337 --> 01:06:58.618
[SPEAKER_02]: What's her name is Evelyn?

01:06:58.638 --> 01:07:00.281
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, this is exciting stuff.

01:07:00.441 --> 01:07:03.786
[SPEAKER_02]: Plus, you know, we got some Riverdale in the cast.

01:07:03.806 --> 01:07:05.769
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, I want to see this.

01:07:07.231 --> 01:07:08.072
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you watched the trailer?

01:07:09.743 --> 01:07:13.925
[SPEAKER_00]: I think you should watch the trailer to this one because it doesn't give a thing away.

01:07:14.586 --> 01:07:19.109
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's it's it everything you it just shows everything you know already know about human.

01:07:19.869 --> 01:07:23.191
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, so you should just watch it maybe to refresh yourself.

01:07:23.851 --> 01:07:25.192
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'll see the trailer's good.

01:07:26.293 --> 01:07:36.499
[SPEAKER_00]: This movie has been widely mocked for a year and I think it's the trailer makes it look pretty decent and the reviews are coming in and they're not bad.

01:07:37.399 --> 01:07:37.659
[SPEAKER_00]: So.

01:07:39.965 --> 01:07:44.247
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I help the reviews for this comic card, not bad, because I'm enjoying it.

01:07:44.287 --> 01:07:45.288
[SPEAKER_00]: Really good stuff, Pete.

01:07:45.348 --> 01:07:45.628
[SPEAKER_00]: There.

01:07:45.668 --> 01:07:52.631
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk event horizon number two, inferno number two, I should say, from IDW and my Christian Ward, Arby Ron Carey.

01:07:53.012 --> 01:07:59.255
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, event horizon, the previous series ended, we were like, that was a real journey toward hell.

01:07:59.675 --> 01:08:03.457
[SPEAKER_00]: And here we are back with the journey toward hell continuing.

01:08:05.186 --> 01:08:05.947
[SPEAKER_00]: The P.U.

01:08:06.067 --> 01:08:08.488
[SPEAKER_00]: are famously terrified of horror.

01:08:09.228 --> 01:08:10.249
[SPEAKER_00]: How did you feel about this?

01:08:11.430 --> 01:08:19.874
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well, first off, there was some real cool artistic choices being made with all the kind of black tones and no boxes for panels sometimes.

01:08:20.234 --> 01:08:26.377
[SPEAKER_02]: But that demon mouth panel with a giant kind of splash page was just so impressive.

01:08:27.038 --> 01:08:30.280
[SPEAKER_02]: The action isn't saying, but this did scare the fuck out of me, so.

01:08:31.932 --> 01:08:33.833
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I like this comic.

01:08:34.073 --> 01:08:35.534
[SPEAKER_00]: I like it better than the first series.

01:08:35.574 --> 01:08:42.438
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I like that one too, but this is nice because it's combining some elements and has a little bit of DNA of an alien movie.

01:08:42.698 --> 01:08:52.763
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I know event horizon is like the most fucked up version of an alien movie, but this actually feels a little bit closer to it in a positive way.

01:08:53.384 --> 01:09:01.028
[SPEAKER_00]: I like the way we have a return of a character that was in the first series and we get a little bit of backstory on another character here.

01:09:01.712 --> 01:09:10.935
[SPEAKER_00]: And for the first time, maybe a clean, clear explanation of the logic of what's happening with this journey to hell and how it works.

01:09:10.995 --> 01:09:14.236
[SPEAKER_00]: And I found that to be really welcome in this second issue.

01:09:16.336 --> 01:09:18.337
[SPEAKER_00]: But let's move on and talk about poison ivy.

01:09:18.697 --> 01:09:27.740
[SPEAKER_00]: Number four, five, a comic that we have talked about ding-ding, 45 times in a row, from DC Comics's run by G. Willow Wilson, our by Leandro Fernandez.

01:09:32.691 --> 01:09:39.757
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, we kind of deal with Poison Ivy or she's kind of pissed off too many people.

01:09:39.777 --> 01:09:44.822
[SPEAKER_02]: And now, you know, maybe it's falling to her death.

01:09:45.282 --> 01:09:47.324
[SPEAKER_02]: We will see, you'll have to tune in next time.

01:09:47.384 --> 01:09:50.307
[SPEAKER_02]: But great art, tons of action.

01:09:50.327 --> 01:09:51.888
[SPEAKER_02]: This is very cool.

01:09:51.969 --> 01:09:58.194
[SPEAKER_02]: I would continue to enjoy what they're doing in Poison Ivy and the things going on.

01:09:59.275 --> 01:10:03.619
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll be interested to see how this all pans out, but it's not looking good right now for Poison Ivy.

01:10:03.919 --> 01:10:09.883
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, what I love about this, this book just continues to surprise and to say that 45 issues in really impressive.

01:10:10.384 --> 01:10:21.232
[SPEAKER_00]: Poison Ivy is being a bit of a dictator here, as elected mayor of Gotham, and is being a straight-up villain in this issue.

01:10:21.272 --> 01:10:23.274
[SPEAKER_00]: A character that has been a pretty clean

01:10:28.848 --> 01:10:35.312
[SPEAKER_00]: different, the parliament of trees and a couple other bog Venus, a couple other characters.

01:10:36.532 --> 01:10:49.420
[SPEAKER_00]: And here we get her being like very dictatorial about how she wants the police to work and going to Vandal Savage to make some nice crossing over with the main Batman title, like I want Batman, give me Batman now.

01:10:50.340 --> 01:10:54.223
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought that was really cool and well done, a lot of the same time keeping her

01:10:55.237 --> 01:10:55.998
[SPEAKER_00]: individual fights.

01:10:56.018 --> 01:10:58.259
[SPEAKER_00]: She gets picked up by a giant tree.

01:10:59.560 --> 01:11:00.481
[SPEAKER_00]: A couple of times here.

01:11:00.561 --> 01:11:02.322
[SPEAKER_00]: So that is cool.

01:11:02.662 --> 01:11:03.523
[SPEAKER_00]: Continuous to be good.

01:11:04.223 --> 01:11:04.624
[SPEAKER_00]: Shocking.

01:11:06.085 --> 01:11:08.086
[SPEAKER_00]: Another title that continues to be good.

01:11:08.246 --> 01:11:12.289
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe great is the amazing spider-man number 30 from Marvel and by Joe Kelly are by Pete Woods.

01:11:13.570 --> 01:11:14.150
[SPEAKER_00]: Come on.

01:11:14.610 --> 01:11:15.431
[SPEAKER_00]: Come on, Pete.

01:11:15.771 --> 01:11:16.732
[SPEAKER_00]: Pete loves Pete.

01:11:17.653 --> 01:11:18.453
[SPEAKER_00]: Pete Woods.

01:11:18.793 --> 01:11:20.254
[SPEAKER_00]: Pete lives in the woods.

01:11:21.115 --> 01:11:22.296
[SPEAKER_00]: This is like looking in the mirror

01:11:24.658 --> 01:11:29.702
[SPEAKER_00]: This issue continuing this introduction of the villain's spore, I guess bringing that to a close.

01:11:30.483 --> 01:11:34.847
[SPEAKER_00]: We, like Joe Kelly is just cooking on all burners right now with Spider-Man.

01:11:35.348 --> 01:11:44.617
[SPEAKER_00]: He's got a character that was introduced in the Venom Carnage crossover, which it purports to be a cousin of Peter Parker.

01:11:44.997 --> 01:11:46.819
[SPEAKER_00]: We get some big revelations about that here.

01:11:47.246 --> 01:11:59.715
[SPEAKER_00]: We get this villain, Spor, a guy that hired him at his last job, that Ben, his clone, messed up really badly, which was a bit of consternation here.

01:11:59.795 --> 01:12:11.103
[SPEAKER_00]: We have a little bit of romance potentially for Peter Parker, but he ignores it completely because he needs some good old fashion time with him, but Pete, how are you feeling here?

01:12:11.431 --> 01:12:13.052
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, first off, cool cover.

01:12:13.652 --> 01:12:20.614
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was having a great time until, you know, excuse my spoilers, but until the amp may die at the end of this.

01:12:20.694 --> 01:12:24.535
[SPEAKER_02]: So I did like that last twist there.

01:12:24.995 --> 01:12:26.095
[SPEAKER_00]: She's got that.

01:12:26.596 --> 01:12:28.076
[SPEAKER_00]: That would seem like something else.

01:12:28.496 --> 01:12:33.578
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I don't think that feels like an assumption rather than a reporting of the facts.

01:12:33.938 --> 01:12:36.599
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, well, you read the issue and you tell me, but,

01:12:38.227 --> 01:12:46.410
[SPEAKER_02]: I happen to join this up until this point, so hopefully give it the benefit of the doubt and check out the next issue, but we will see.

01:12:47.991 --> 01:12:48.571
[SPEAKER_00]: I love this.

01:12:48.671 --> 01:12:52.673
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this has been consistently excellent for all of Joe Kelly's run.

01:12:52.693 --> 01:12:53.633
[SPEAKER_00]: I would pick up all of it.

01:12:54.254 --> 01:12:57.455
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's move on to our final issue in the stack for tonight.

01:12:57.935 --> 01:13:02.217
[SPEAKER_00]: The issue that Pete has hyped the most, it's actually, it's at the end.

01:13:02.237 --> 01:13:04.778
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk Twilight Zone number seven for Mighty W.

01:13:07.919 --> 01:13:09.800
[SPEAKER_02]: You got to be Tony Fleece Kennedy.

01:13:09.820 --> 01:13:12.041
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, by Andy Price, Pete.

01:13:13.062 --> 01:13:13.922
[SPEAKER_00]: Give it your all.

01:13:14.523 --> 01:13:16.164
[SPEAKER_00]: The process of the Germans.

01:13:16.784 --> 01:13:21.307
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, so when it comes to Twilight's own, we've seen many different narrations.

01:13:21.747 --> 01:13:34.995
[SPEAKER_02]: Some people do a great, some people do it in a way that kind of feels like this show, but that their own twist, this really, I think, does such a great job of capturing what's great about the show and taking it to a different art form here.

01:13:35.475 --> 01:13:41.677
[SPEAKER_02]: But man, what a cool cover, so pumped, the writing on this is fantastic.

01:13:41.737 --> 01:13:50.601
[SPEAKER_02]: I love the twist, I love the creepy, but there's heart, amazing art that really sets the tone perfectly, this really delivers.

01:13:50.721 --> 01:14:01.385
[SPEAKER_02]: If you love the Twilight Zone, if you think the Twilight Zone is cool, this comic will really delivers on that, and I don't think you will be sorry if you pick it up because man, it is fantastic.

01:14:02.105 --> 01:14:02.965
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, I agree.

01:14:03.125 --> 01:14:05.986
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like 20 fleeces on just an absolute tear right now.

01:14:06.166 --> 01:14:08.267
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a Tony fleece and tear is what it is.

01:14:08.327 --> 01:14:09.187
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a Tony tear.

01:14:09.387 --> 01:14:10.347
[SPEAKER_00]: We got a Tony tear.

01:14:11.047 --> 01:14:14.068
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, right in the fleece and he flees and give me with this tear.

01:14:14.828 --> 01:14:18.529
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, he is bringing some classic twilight's and storytelling.

01:14:18.549 --> 01:14:20.189
[SPEAKER_00]: The art matches it really well.

01:14:20.310 --> 01:14:25.071
[SPEAKER_00]: It feels like you're watching it right on your television coming to life.

01:14:25.291 --> 01:14:25.951
[SPEAKER_00]: And that is

01:14:26.611 --> 01:14:33.537
[SPEAKER_02]: a great vibe and normally if you tear a fleece it's not a good thing but this fleece and tear is unfuckable.

01:14:33.577 --> 01:14:36.619
[SPEAKER_00]: Really good that makes sense put that quote on a book.

01:14:36.880 --> 01:14:40.923
[SPEAKER_00]: Someone and folks that's it for the stack.
