WEBVTT

00:08.225 --> 00:08.966
[SPEAKER_03]: What is up everybody?

00:08.986 --> 00:09.806
[SPEAKER_03]: Welcome to the stack.

00:09.886 --> 00:10.526
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm Alex.

00:11.007 --> 00:11.527
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm Justin.

00:11.947 --> 00:12.868
[SPEAKER_03]: What is up on Pete?

00:13.508 --> 00:20.333
[SPEAKER_03]: And on the stack we talk about a bunch of books that have come out this week and we do every single week every week.

00:20.373 --> 00:23.915
[SPEAKER_03]: I say this right at the top and I don't know why it's not getting through to yet, but

00:24.978 --> 00:49.710
[SPEAKER_03]: He surprised every time it's beautiful in a way he's a babe in the woods like well let's let's see how many of these books are a beautiful babe in the woods kicking off with one of the most beautiful babies that doesn't even know it one hundred bullets you as an anger number one from DC vertigo written by Brian Asurella heart by Eduardo Riso this is picking off off the classic vertigo series one hundred bullets as well as the

00:49.970 --> 00:53.352
[SPEAKER_03]: Brother Lono, I believe many series that followed this character.

00:53.392 --> 00:57.874
[SPEAKER_03]: We see on the cover here, name Lono, who's a big old bruiser with nothing to lose.

00:57.954 --> 01:02.216
[SPEAKER_03]: The world of a hundred bullets started simply enough just to sort of jump all the way back there.

01:02.616 --> 01:09.740
[SPEAKER_03]: For the whole idea was rather seemingly random people were given a suitcase with a hundred bullets and untraceable gun.

01:10.260 --> 01:36.895
[SPEAKER_03]: and told doing everyone and that was pretty much it was part of a bigger conspiracy going back to the birth of the United States America and now just in time for the 250th birthday of America these series is back with this mostly black and white book that follows Lono in 2026 two day dealing with the fallout of the hundred bullets series and a lot of other things Pete you see pretty psyched about this on the live show so what do you think?

01:37.415 --> 01:39.496
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I was just so excited that it's back.

01:40.136 --> 01:50.440
[SPEAKER_02]: I really love the team on a hundred bullets that first series of graphic novels was really impressive, artistically.

01:50.540 --> 01:53.081
[SPEAKER_02]: So I was very excited for this to come back.

01:53.942 --> 02:00.724
[SPEAKER_02]: I felt like this is a very powerful cover, a powerful start and love the black and white, you know.

02:01.845 --> 02:04.306
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, I was very famous by this.

02:06.414 --> 02:32.882
[SPEAKER_01]: yeah it's uh... it's uh... it's uh... it's uh... it's uh... it's a lot of the things but uh... yeah definitely kind of gets you going for sure just in what about you you're outside right now in the old us a day how you feel yeah i'm taking the temperature and uh... it's wild out here uh... every squirrel around me has a gun with uh... a hundred untraceable bullets so it's i'm in severe danger right you know that's not

02:33.870 --> 02:35.411
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

02:35.431 --> 02:37.832
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, Alex hold on to it.

02:38.332 --> 02:53.041
[SPEAKER_01]: It's crazy to read this book and be like, Oh, the country caught up to the book more, you know, and I feel like the book is this this first issue, the first of the arts amazing, like it's just really it's so simple.

02:53.161 --> 02:54.842
[SPEAKER_01]: It feels like it is

02:55.682 --> 03:00.407
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's so paired down compared to a lot of the other artwork we see and we're going to talk about in the stack.

03:00.908 --> 03:03.130
[SPEAKER_01]: Yet it just pops so much more because of it.

03:03.771 --> 03:05.252
[SPEAKER_01]: And everything is a little bit more.

03:05.312 --> 03:09.257
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it's black and white and the issues here are the opposite of that.

03:09.897 --> 03:13.601
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think there's something to that they outcome me between those ideas.

03:14.362 --> 03:27.094
[SPEAKER_01]: And then the book is, it's fractured purposefully, I feel like it's a little bit of like thrown us in hard to be and bombarding us with violence, a violence that we don't quite understand who or why it's happening.

03:27.114 --> 03:32.399
[SPEAKER_01]: The characters don't understand why they're together in these violence acts and that feels like maybe the point.

03:33.624 --> 03:34.425
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I agree with you.

03:34.445 --> 03:48.445
[SPEAKER_03]: Just on the pure basis of it be a comic, it's hard to follow when you're reading it, but like you're saying just and I do think that is a reflection of the chaos that we're facing today with just too much information.

03:49.185 --> 04:15.945
[SPEAKER_03]: all at the same time being thrown at us there is like Pete was intimating there's a lot of racial stuff that's going on in this comic book there's a lot of cops versus civilian stuff going on in this comic book as well so there's a lot of heavy issues it is the sort of thing I'm very curious to read the second issue because like Chester was saying it's a lot of like we hit the ground running you already read the first series of the midi series right you know it's going on we don't need to get you cut up

04:16.365 --> 04:25.390
[SPEAKER_03]: And I kind of do, personally, so now that we've been acclimated to this, I'm curious to see how the second issue feels, knowing Brian Ezreal is writing.

04:25.450 --> 04:32.233
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think it's going to calm down at all, but my hope is that we start to focus in now that we have the set up for the story, but we'll see.

04:33.708 --> 04:33.888
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

04:33.968 --> 04:39.831
[SPEAKER_03]: Next up, amazing spider-man number 32 from Marvel read by Joe Kelly, art by Patrick Leeson last issue.

04:39.871 --> 04:47.816
[SPEAKER_03]: We got a big revelation from and May that she has a son, a biological son and Peter Parker has a cousin.

04:48.276 --> 04:58.041
[SPEAKER_03]: He's dealing with the fallout from that and we're continuing what we saw as the fallout in the last issue, which was him fighting in a auction that is run by the

05:01.683 --> 05:06.085
[SPEAKER_01]: We've all fought at auctions before our apologies to Tiffany's.

05:06.885 --> 05:11.587
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, this is basically like the uncut gems of comic books, I think we can all agree on that.

05:12.027 --> 05:19.210
[SPEAKER_03]: But there's that, and then it's moving forward from there or showing how Peter Parker is dealing with this huge revelation that changed.

05:20.010 --> 05:29.519
[SPEAKER_03]: His life, what he thinks about Ed May, what he thinks most of all about himself because he's always been the son that Ed May has never had, so what does it mean that you now has the son?

05:29.539 --> 05:35.445
[SPEAKER_03]: I think generally speaking, we've been really enjoying an amazing spider-man, how do you feel about this issue in particular?

05:36.619 --> 05:37.540
[SPEAKER_01]: I really like this.

05:37.600 --> 05:57.077
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, the, I wouldn't call it even a criticism, but the sort of questions we had at the end of last issue were very much like, okay, we have this very bifurcated story of this emotional tale from Aunt May, and Spider-Man just kicking a very superhero fight between Spider-Man and the Vulture and other villains.

05:57.657 --> 06:03.280
[SPEAKER_01]: And this story bridges the gap in a way that really earned the split in the last issue I felt.

06:03.820 --> 06:19.888
[SPEAKER_01]: And to see Peter really like off the chain quite literally here, I thought was really powerful in the moment where, you know, he just, this is a, the lightest of spoilers, but he punches the vulture and extra time.

06:20.889 --> 06:22.990
[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, it doesn't kill him, he doesn't threaten to kill him,

06:27.915 --> 06:46.356
[SPEAKER_01]: You see him, you know, in the classic uniform in very classic Spider-Man look with the art just going against sort of everything that Spider-Man is like so overwhelmed and just over over a clocked because of this news I thought was just really effective to call back that way.

06:46.792 --> 07:03.019
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, let me ask you a question about that not to cut you off before your opinion, Pete, but just while we're talking about that specific moment, that really struck me as well where you get, I think you're talking about that panel where Spider-Man just sort of like do the muscle pose and it's him standing there and he's glowing and the lights are behind him.

07:03.879 --> 07:13.085
[SPEAKER_03]: This is never explicitly stated, but the thing that I took away from there that if this is what Joe Kelly is going for, I thought was so smart, is that's where Spider-Man started.

07:13.305 --> 07:28.095
[SPEAKER_03]: He was a wrestler, he was in a ring, and he did it for the glory and he had none of the responsibility and all of the power, and he's allowing himself what I took away for it was he's allowing himself for a moment, now that he's like, well,

07:28.902 --> 07:55.060
[SPEAKER_03]: Uncle Ben and Aunt May they had their own kids that's not me to go back to regress to that guy that he was before everything that happened just for a moment and obviously he's not going to do that long-term he's immediately waited on it weighs on him immediately after that but I don't know again that's what I took away for that panel and I thought I think that's what they're going for and it's just like a very under the radar textual thing if so.

07:55.500 --> 08:05.486
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and it's such an under-export part of the mythology of like that time where he was that way and To bring him back to that to that is a way that we don't consider him a hero.

08:05.506 --> 08:07.908
[SPEAKER_01]: That's his lowest point and now he's there again

08:08.352 --> 08:09.912
[SPEAKER_01]: which I think it was really interesting too.

08:10.012 --> 08:12.493
[SPEAKER_02]: I would also argue that I don't think he did it for the glory.

08:12.513 --> 08:13.533
[SPEAKER_02]: He did it for the money.

08:13.693 --> 08:15.553
[SPEAKER_02]: It was a way to get some quick cash.

08:16.114 --> 08:19.974
[SPEAKER_02]: He wasn't really, you know, like, uh, you're talking about back in the day.

08:20.234 --> 08:22.215
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm talking about when he first started wrestling.

08:22.655 --> 08:23.955
[SPEAKER_03]: He was just on the money.

08:23.975 --> 08:27.676
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, he did it for the money, but he eventually liked it.

08:27.756 --> 08:28.916
[SPEAKER_03]: He liked being in the ring.

08:28.956 --> 08:32.937
[SPEAKER_03]: He liked people cheering for me, like being able to beat anybody with a spider powers.

08:33.597 --> 08:34.858
[SPEAKER_01]: Bonesau's ready guys.

08:34.998 --> 08:35.818
[SPEAKER_01]: Bonesau's ready.

08:36.018 --> 08:36.959
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh my god.

08:37.059 --> 08:39.440
[SPEAKER_02]: Nice little macho man Randy seven shout out.

08:39.480 --> 08:46.503
[SPEAKER_02]: I love it Our anyways, I just think that first off in this issue Does a lot.

08:46.623 --> 08:47.704
[SPEAKER_02]: It's really impressive.

08:47.724 --> 08:54.687
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a lot of emotions with that may hurt crying and you know all that going on and then Peter kind of talking to his cousin and

08:55.147 --> 09:07.152
[SPEAKER_02]: Having this promise, this real dialogue about lying to that man all that kind of stuff was really powerful But then he's seeing him ghost too far in the ring was also heartbreaking because that's not who Peter is.

09:07.192 --> 09:13.354
[SPEAKER_02]: He's not that guy who's, you know Excited about using his force and beating somebody up.

09:13.414 --> 09:19.356
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, that was a little rough and then also the alien girl get a little too cozy on the couch Yeah

09:21.177 --> 09:27.720
[SPEAKER_01]: So, Pete, how are you, if you're a romantic, this romance is a, in this issue, I thought was beautiful.

09:28.040 --> 09:30.341
[SPEAKER_01]: This is the romance I'm most excited about.

09:30.701 --> 09:34.562
[SPEAKER_01]: If, like, Queen and Tony Stark are going to be together, this is where my heart is.

09:34.923 --> 09:41.605
[SPEAKER_03]: And just from the Marvel Universe, he'd be walking over to the couch and being like, I excuse me, leave some space for Adam Warlock, please.

09:44.873 --> 09:49.196
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I just think there's a lot going on, Joe Kelly does an amazing job as a writer.

09:49.516 --> 09:51.818
[SPEAKER_02]: The art is fantastic.

09:51.838 --> 09:54.980
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this is a very crazy issue.

09:55.020 --> 09:56.381
[SPEAKER_02]: A lot goes down on this issue.

09:57.222 --> 10:08.450
[SPEAKER_01]: The other thing I want to say about it though is he's also doing Peter's doing that whole fight and taking himself over the edge to try to get shockers gloves back so that he can be buried peacefully.

10:09.720 --> 10:12.861
[SPEAKER_01]: essentially and the shocker like villainy put to rest.

10:13.021 --> 10:16.061
[SPEAKER_01]: So there is a little bit of heroes heroes of in there.

10:17.161 --> 10:29.944
[SPEAKER_01]: And I thought that was just a sweet little undernote for the whole thing that I think helps give a little bit of context a little bit of counterpoint to what we were saying earlier about him going back to a free of responsibility Peter Parker.

10:31.224 --> 10:34.745
[SPEAKER_03]: Last little thing I want to ask you guys, Parker cousin, good or evil.

10:34.825 --> 10:35.185
[SPEAKER_03]: What's your

10:37.612 --> 10:38.572
[SPEAKER_01]: got to be evil.

10:38.712 --> 10:41.653
[SPEAKER_01]: I think when I read it, I'm like, this guy's got to be got it.

10:41.693 --> 10:49.295
[SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, there's that one panel after he's like, don't worry, Peter, I'll never give up your identity as spider bad, which I don't.

10:49.475 --> 10:53.697
[SPEAKER_03]: And then you just see him with like his eyes above a car door.

10:53.817 --> 10:54.637
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, nope.

10:55.197 --> 10:56.578
[SPEAKER_03]: That guy bad news.

10:56.818 --> 10:58.178
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, but also, I'm like, what's the point?

10:58.218 --> 11:05.001
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, if he've just vanished at the end of this issue and never came back, still valuable as a character.

11:05.661 --> 11:13.484
[SPEAKER_01]: I wonder how much, how long Joe Kelly's going to let this pot cook on the back burner, because it could sit a while, it could come back in here.

11:13.504 --> 11:16.425
[SPEAKER_03]: How far are we away from a basing Spider-Man 1000?

11:16.485 --> 11:17.985
[SPEAKER_03]: That's a September, right?

11:18.246 --> 11:19.346
[SPEAKER_03]: So I feel like that.

11:19.706 --> 11:22.227
[SPEAKER_01]: That's that's what the recipe comes to.

11:22.647 --> 11:23.967
[SPEAKER_03]: I think who's he going to be?

11:24.687 --> 11:25.627
[SPEAKER_01]: What's what's your prediction?

11:25.847 --> 11:26.528
[SPEAKER_01]: Who's that?

11:26.568 --> 11:27.928
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't ever prediction beyond that.

11:27.988 --> 11:40.311
[SPEAKER_03]: I just think like he's he's a bad guy because I Actually think it's probably a stronger choice to make him not a bad guy, but maybe make Peter feel like Whether it's justified or not.

11:40.831 --> 11:44.672
[SPEAKER_03]: He is the son at May always wanted like have him be a good guy

11:50.073 --> 11:52.275
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, him being like I'm a villain.

11:52.315 --> 12:12.686
[SPEAKER_01]: New dresses is a some sort of goblin like that's You're you're right dramatically Alex, but that is way less fun from a super hero story Tell me one of you if he's just feeling like nephew stress Throughout the next That's the worst stress now.

12:12.826 --> 12:16.368
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god, but my ad is not like totally into me.

12:16.528 --> 12:17.409
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what to do

12:18.072 --> 12:21.313
[SPEAKER_01]: And let's be honest, everyone, Alex's answer totally into him.

12:21.733 --> 12:22.893
[SPEAKER_01]: Like obsessed.

12:23.133 --> 12:24.714
[SPEAKER_01]: They're so into it.

12:24.934 --> 12:25.734
[SPEAKER_03]: It's crazy.

12:26.314 --> 12:27.734
[SPEAKER_01]: Alex said it, not us.

12:28.095 --> 12:28.575
[SPEAKER_01]: Remember that.

12:28.595 --> 12:30.255
[SPEAKER_03]: They don't listen to this podcast, right?

12:30.315 --> 12:30.775
[SPEAKER_03]: OK, good.

12:31.295 --> 12:34.076
[SPEAKER_01]: My mom listens, and I'm getting your ants on board.

12:35.016 --> 12:37.637
[SPEAKER_01]: So last thing I would say, if I had a predictive villain, though,

12:37.917 --> 12:59.448
[SPEAKER_01]: This is a villain that is very random and I just jumped in my head first with about the rose who was a famously massive villain who was kingpins son i want to say at one point that was sort of a being the rose uh... yeah could be i'm gonna have some sort of goblin i'm excited to hear Alex pronounce this next comic

13:00.948 --> 13:02.009
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, sure.

13:02.029 --> 13:05.534
[SPEAKER_03]: Repeat what a specific kick on your part.

13:05.915 --> 13:06.676
[SPEAKER_03]: Per.

13:06.756 --> 13:07.277
[SPEAKER_03]: There.

13:07.297 --> 13:08.298
[SPEAKER_03]: Are you hoping me to do?

13:08.318 --> 13:09.180
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

13:09.220 --> 13:10.001
[SPEAKER_03]: That was a way.

13:10.041 --> 13:11.703
[SPEAKER_03]: A little artwork there.

13:11.964 --> 13:12.084
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_02]: because like, I didn't want to say you tried to say the title again, but it didn't come through.

13:43.892 --> 13:45.513
[SPEAKER_02]: There, there it is, yeah.

13:45.934 --> 13:46.074
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

13:46.094 --> 13:48.716
[SPEAKER_03]: Pete, you're going to come over and puff my fluff?

13:49.056 --> 13:49.297
[SPEAKER_03]: Why?

13:50.117 --> 13:50.357
[SPEAKER_03]: No.

13:51.318 --> 13:51.699
[SPEAKER_03]: Where are they?

13:51.719 --> 13:52.379
[SPEAKER_02]: You would ask that.

13:53.800 --> 13:55.662
[SPEAKER_03]: And for anybody listening out there, puff my fluff.

13:55.922 --> 13:57.544
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it's blowing my ass all out.

13:57.564 --> 13:58.124
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, just.

13:58.465 --> 13:59.766
[SPEAKER_03]: Pete, what do you think about this park?

13:59.806 --> 14:01.247
[SPEAKER_03]: You're the cat person.

14:01.287 --> 14:02.008
[SPEAKER_03]: He may say cat.

14:03.682 --> 14:12.285
[SPEAKER_02]: I was scared, I was very scared when I saw the title, but then the cover was like, oh, maybe this isn't a scary.

14:12.966 --> 14:18.588
[SPEAKER_02]: So I got excited to read it, but then when she started reading it, a room full of dead bodies, right off the top.

14:18.608 --> 14:19.848
[SPEAKER_02]: So then I got scared again.

14:20.629 --> 14:26.331
[SPEAKER_02]: But as this went on, you know, we got kind of a mom and daughter murdered team.

14:27.257 --> 14:35.523
[SPEAKER_02]: cool, but yeah, I'm excited to see how that kind of breaks down, but then you've got the boy down the hall and man, what a tempress.

14:35.643 --> 14:39.887
[SPEAKER_02]: So we'll see how that kind of relationship breaks down.

14:40.647 --> 14:42.168
[SPEAKER_02]: But mom seems like a psycho.

14:42.288 --> 14:46.271
[SPEAKER_02]: So and the daughter seems like an evil cat.

14:46.351 --> 14:49.414
[SPEAKER_02]: So it will be interesting to see how this all kind of unfolds.

14:49.914 --> 14:50.835
[SPEAKER_02]: Arts fantastic.

14:51.700 --> 15:09.463
[SPEAKER_01]: what a title story mismatch and that's not a criticism per se but i was like i thought this is gonna be like a very cute slash horror story and it was just like a real uh... sort of action thriller situation uh... with a hidden identity and such a mistake and identity

15:10.344 --> 15:23.580
[SPEAKER_01]: I will say it was confusing at first, but I did end up liking where at Landed, and I do think we've seen these cats before in another story, but I like the way that this landed.

15:25.010 --> 15:36.477
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I like always what Mirkan Dalfa is doing, but this is one of Betty books in the stack that sort of felt like a fever dream a little bit.

15:36.577 --> 15:40.319
[SPEAKER_03]: I throw 100 bullets on there where I was like, what am I reading right now?

15:40.959 --> 15:56.871
[SPEAKER_03]: there's just a little too much to hang out to the story necessarily, but there you go, let's talk about something a little more straightforward with absolute Martian man hunter over twelve for this comic written by Dennis Cap art by Havirich, because it's the final issue of this critically clear series.

15:57.971 --> 16:04.774
[SPEAKER_03]: as Despero, the evil guy who lives in John Jones's brain.

16:04.794 --> 16:05.474
[SPEAKER_03]: Yep, sure.

16:05.534 --> 16:09.856
[SPEAKER_03]: It's attacking him and trying to maybe kill him, maybe collect cropped him completely.

16:10.477 --> 16:17.720
[SPEAKER_03]: Their son may or may not be dead the entire time in the green marsh and who also lives in John's brain is fighting back as well.

16:18.200 --> 16:19.720
[SPEAKER_03]: Obviously, this series is very beloved.

16:19.880 --> 16:21.781
[SPEAKER_03]: It does go in some very trippy directions.

16:21.941 --> 16:23.322
[SPEAKER_03]: It is also all throughout there.

16:23.762 --> 16:37.316
[SPEAKER_03]: Interestingly coming hot on the heels of another big Dennis camp finale the ultimate endgame finale that we were mixed on is a nice way of saying it So how do you feel does this more successful as an ending?

16:37.376 --> 16:44.063
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean just in you know You got your pop 10 out or you get in your smores machine ready like

16:44.503 --> 16:45.303
[SPEAKER_02]: Are you done this?

16:45.404 --> 16:48.885
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, are you done this camping right now?

16:49.065 --> 16:49.445
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

16:49.686 --> 16:50.686
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I hate the water.

16:50.726 --> 16:52.367
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm technically dentist camping.

16:52.407 --> 16:54.388
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, a smooth machine is a fire.

16:54.448 --> 16:55.989
[SPEAKER_01]: Pete's trying to make that stick.

16:56.469 --> 16:57.389
[SPEAKER_01]: Try to make that happen.

16:58.390 --> 16:59.931
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I am dentist camping because.

17:00.031 --> 17:00.631
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

17:00.751 --> 17:07.216
[SPEAKER_01]: Despite the fact that this, I wish this was longer as a series, and there's so much going on in this issue, particularly.

17:07.756 --> 17:11.199
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like this paid off a lot of the great themes of this.

17:12.180 --> 17:23.208
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a story about struggling with depression and sort of how that it feels internally looking through a psychedelic lens outward from that is my interpretation.

17:23.869 --> 17:24.009
[SPEAKER_01]: And...

17:25.112 --> 17:27.273
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was really cool and really worked.

17:27.333 --> 17:28.453
[SPEAKER_01]: The art is amazing.

17:29.574 --> 17:35.676
[SPEAKER_01]: I like how they very definitely touched on the the Trinity of the Absolute City.

17:35.796 --> 17:37.397
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was a surprise to see that.

17:37.917 --> 17:38.397
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

17:38.478 --> 17:39.398
[SPEAKER_01]: But that was cool.

17:39.758 --> 17:43.099
[SPEAKER_01]: And I just, I hope we get more of this series.

17:43.179 --> 17:46.581
[SPEAKER_01]: It was so, such a critical hit, such a popular series.

17:47.241 --> 17:51.623
[SPEAKER_01]: I would like to see more of this is a new, just a new storyline.

17:52.342 --> 17:56.724
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I got to first back up the truck and talk about how cool this cover is.

17:57.584 --> 18:06.948
[SPEAKER_02]: This has been really impressive as an artistic achievement, you know, it's super tight bananas, the art, and it's worth it for the art alone.

18:07.368 --> 18:10.369
[SPEAKER_02]: The panel work, the layouts, the use of color.

18:10.409 --> 18:19.053
[SPEAKER_02]: This is all just really phenomenal in this comic, and it really does a great job, but there's a lot that goes down this issue, but it really lands well.

18:19.453 --> 18:21.855
[SPEAKER_02]: It's an impressive ending that gives you a little hope.

18:22.976 --> 18:28.679
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I was just, I just think this is so cool, such a cool book to read and to look at.

18:29.280 --> 18:36.224
[SPEAKER_02]: I looked at it numerous times, and cool that they had the kind of cameos of Batman Superman and Wonder Woman in this.

18:36.284 --> 18:41.568
[SPEAKER_02]: So, yeah, this is just an impressive package, and we're checking out for sure.

18:43.024 --> 18:52.747
[SPEAKER_03]: Next up, the same level of intense education going on here in Corgis, our Marvel Swim Seeth Special, Brad New Beach Day, W1 from Marvel.

18:52.787 --> 19:07.372
[SPEAKER_03]: We're going to buy dead, you'll keep a little Smith, Readbow, Raul, Anthony, Olivera, Dan Schkelli, and Cody Zeeckler, art by Alessandro Miracolo, Phil Noodo, Pablo Coler, Dan Schkelli, and David Baldeon.

19:07.852 --> 19:10.753
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the latest swimsuit special from Marvel.

19:10.833 --> 19:22.579
[SPEAKER_03]: This one is not one continuous story with pin ups, but several short stories about different pool days that the heroes are going on and beach days with pin ups interspersed between it.

19:23.679 --> 19:26.121
[SPEAKER_03]: I've been really harping out with these swimsuit specials.

19:26.201 --> 19:31.403
[SPEAKER_03]: Whether they are or are not horny enough, like there's a certain horny level that you need to be at.

19:31.837 --> 19:33.098
[SPEAKER_03]: for a swimsuit special.

19:34.298 --> 19:38.340
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think this one might be there, but the first hit to horn.

19:38.781 --> 19:39.941
[SPEAKER_03]: It did not hit the horn.

19:40.141 --> 19:41.722
[SPEAKER_03]: My answer, not going to like this one.

19:42.383 --> 19:46.605
[SPEAKER_03]: But the first two stories I thought were fun, Daniel Kiddles' best story is very funny.

19:46.785 --> 19:57.971
[SPEAKER_03]: As usual, and Rainbow Rally's story, which is the one with the X-Men having a pool day, and Beast getting all wet, I thought, hit the right sort of cheeky fun for this sort of thing.

19:57.991 --> 20:00.672
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, the third strap with Beast was, you know,

20:03.501 --> 20:10.747
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, if you like these things, then you'll enjoy this, the artist's fantastic.

20:11.207 --> 20:21.656
[SPEAKER_02]: I enjoyed the Hulk's trying to be zen, that was fun, the beast, the strap was fun, but the invisible woman joke with, you know,

20:23.017 --> 20:45.953
[SPEAKER_02]: not name or but you know what's his name in periods for acts was a name or okay that's name or yeah it was uh yeah I didn't like it but other than that why did you like it because you had it hard to be faithful to read well who is your famous enemy no I don't like them together um I don't but uh so and name or

20:46.666 --> 20:49.067
[SPEAKER_02]: No, you just don't want her to be with anybody, is that it?

20:49.107 --> 20:49.868
[SPEAKER_01]: You want her alone?

20:49.948 --> 20:51.028
[SPEAKER_01]: So she can stay for you.

20:51.168 --> 20:56.391
[SPEAKER_02]: No, because I don't think the way invisible prison... No, I don't like the way the read treats her.

20:56.471 --> 20:58.012
[SPEAKER_02]: So I don't think they deserve it together.

20:58.392 --> 21:03.515
[SPEAKER_02]: But the way that that relationship plays out makes me a little nervous in the service as all of a sudden.

21:03.535 --> 21:09.998
[SPEAKER_03]: And if you want to hear more of views like this from Pete, head to truth, social, as account is at invisible misogynist.

21:10.238 --> 21:11.439
[SPEAKER_03]: It's real crimes.

21:11.479 --> 21:14.040
[SPEAKER_02]: That's not anything close to what I'm saying, you asshole.

21:15.488 --> 21:17.871
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I really do Alex I liked these stories.

21:17.991 --> 21:20.713
[SPEAKER_01]: I do miss the sort of unifying story.

21:20.753 --> 21:23.536
[SPEAKER_01]: It wasn't the last year's had a one story that went through.

21:23.596 --> 21:27.460
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it was the last two were Tim Sealy and Tony, please do a beautiful story.

21:27.480 --> 21:32.945
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it was always like, oh no, we're the savage lad that all of our clothes fell off, which was, yeah, funny.

21:33.606 --> 21:51.614
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, because also like to your point also, you know Marvel comics are famously maybe one of the least horny lines of comics across the board, and this issue comes out and you're like, okay, and I feel like you need to go a little harder in between these pin-ups, which are just pin-ups.

21:52.054 --> 21:53.055
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, so it's like...

21:54.087 --> 21:57.890
[SPEAKER_03]: But I was trying to think about it a little bit and these are controversial.

21:58.951 --> 22:03.034
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, this one name that came to mind was a controversial one that a lot of people don't like.

22:03.075 --> 22:11.141
[SPEAKER_03]: But like, a level of a Milo Manara back at the day to a like, oh, this is making me, this is our comfortably sexy.

22:11.161 --> 22:12.502
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know how I feel about this.

22:13.083 --> 22:18.788
[SPEAKER_03]: That's maybe too far along the line, but you do want this like, I thought Dan Panosians thing,

22:19.328 --> 22:24.753
[SPEAKER_03]: where he did Thor, where I guess Speedo being like, if you know, you know, and then it's good.

22:24.793 --> 22:26.634
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's cheeky, it's funny.

22:26.734 --> 22:32.519
[SPEAKER_03]: There is, he has ripped abs at everything, and he's just wearing the swimsuit and holding the hammer down low, and you don't know what that means.

22:32.920 --> 22:35.622
[SPEAKER_03]: And that's what you want out of this sort of thing as it should be.

22:35.702 --> 22:36.343
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's all right.

22:37.144 --> 22:50.204
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, exactly and it should hit that ridiculous camera so just like it can't just be like we're wearing a swimsuit because They're always wearing swimsuits like that is all the way around all the time so it needs to be something beyond that

22:52.206 --> 23:14.874
[SPEAKER_01]: a couple of things on it like I like seeing characters chilling out and we just haven't gotten that much lately especially in Marvel comics and I would just like I was happy to see the X man by the pool like I wish I just want more of that in this storytelling but what did you guys think about you like Captain it just you know heroes hanging around and just kind of

23:15.707 --> 23:22.710
[SPEAKER_01]: And by hanging, I mean banana hammocks, which we get a moment in this Captain America pin-up.

23:23.670 --> 23:24.371
[SPEAKER_01]: What did you guys think?

23:24.571 --> 23:26.691
[SPEAKER_01]: There's he's doing something with his speedo here.

23:27.112 --> 23:27.832
[SPEAKER_01]: What's happening here?

23:29.052 --> 23:29.973
[SPEAKER_03]: Justin's free, isn't it?

23:30.613 --> 23:38.156
[SPEAKER_03]: But he's probably asking about the pin-up of Captain America and was it Captain Marvel's She-Hulk, maybe?

23:38.316 --> 23:39.036
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.

23:39.156 --> 23:40.197
[SPEAKER_01]: It's Scarlett Witch.

23:40.377 --> 23:44.679
[SPEAKER_01]: She-Hulk and Wasp watching, but what do you think he's really messing with his own

23:48.068 --> 23:49.951
[SPEAKER_03]: I think I've stuck in his butt, right?

23:51.533 --> 23:51.954
[SPEAKER_01]: Great point.

23:52.234 --> 23:54.958
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess maybe like, you know, he was frozen for a long time.

23:54.978 --> 23:56.841
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure he had a bit of a wedgie the entire time.

23:57.121 --> 23:58.423
[SPEAKER_01]: Shout out to the way Queen pin up though.

23:58.784 --> 23:59.525
[SPEAKER_01]: That was my favorite.

24:00.655 --> 24:26.758
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... let's move on to an issue that was the most confusing one of the week to me the dog sitter number one from the edition press by jbs rich art by making leavens now this is a new series about a dog sitter who gets in a couple of romantic and tagled bits but i didn't know any of that reading this book uh... so it starts off with she works in a flower shop and she welcomes dogs and dogs it and i was like okay

24:27.739 --> 24:29.602
[SPEAKER_03]: What is this flower shop of front for?

24:29.682 --> 24:30.784
[SPEAKER_03]: She's an assassin.

24:30.984 --> 24:33.608
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that I come in for the dogs.

24:33.868 --> 24:34.589
[SPEAKER_03]: The dogs.

24:34.629 --> 24:35.951
[SPEAKER_03]: She could talk to the dogs.

24:36.232 --> 24:39.096
[SPEAKER_03]: Or there's one woman who's like, you got to feed my dog.

24:39.216 --> 24:41.059
[SPEAKER_03]: You know why and hands with the things.

24:41.079 --> 24:42.341
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, okay, let's go.

24:42.701 --> 24:44.102
[SPEAKER_03]: that that dog's apartment.

24:44.162 --> 24:44.882
[SPEAKER_03]: That's fine.

24:44.922 --> 24:48.143
[SPEAKER_03]: There's going to be a dead body or she's robbing her or something.

24:48.163 --> 24:49.704
[SPEAKER_03]: It was like, no, she's just feeding that dog.

24:50.044 --> 24:53.725
[SPEAKER_03]: And then she's a veterinarian and she goes to the party.

24:53.745 --> 24:54.445
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like here.

24:54.506 --> 24:54.946
[SPEAKER_03]: We go.

24:54.966 --> 24:57.667
[SPEAKER_03]: We're going to get the real scoop of what's going on here.

24:58.047 --> 24:59.728
[SPEAKER_03]: She goes to the party and everybody's dressed like dog.

24:59.748 --> 25:03.669
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's like, Oh, she's going to turn into a dog or somebody turns into a dog or something like that.

25:04.129 --> 25:06.030
[SPEAKER_03]: And then she makes out with the guy and that's it.

25:08.125 --> 25:18.311
[SPEAKER_03]: And this is I want to be clear like entirely on me the way that I read this comic because it's a good solid robots comic, but not knowing any of that going in I was like

25:20.188 --> 25:34.158
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, in the comic does a lot to set that tension, and I thought that the attention was very effectively done, and I didn't mind that it was just a bit of romance that happened because I was engaged.

25:34.178 --> 25:35.459
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought the art was great in this.

25:35.899 --> 25:37.020
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I was into it.

25:37.721 --> 25:44.366
[SPEAKER_01]: And maybe another shoe will drop or another little doggy sock will drop next issue, but I'm happy with where this is.

25:44.986 --> 25:51.430
[SPEAKER_02]: I just feel like the dog sitter, you know, maybe and then kind of a colon like no, it's really just about a dog sitter.

25:51.710 --> 25:54.391
[SPEAKER_02]: So because I just kept being like all, what's going on?

25:54.691 --> 25:57.673
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, what's behind, and it just never happened.

25:57.953 --> 26:06.758
[SPEAKER_02]: And I want to enjoy it because it is enough, you know, it's somebody living their lives and it ups and downs, great art, cool interesting storyline.

26:07.518 --> 26:10.746
[SPEAKER_02]: Great, but why am I like, but what's the thing?

26:10.886 --> 26:14.295
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if it's coming or it's crazy or what's going on.

26:14.315 --> 26:15.758
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's because of the...

26:16.681 --> 26:20.684
[SPEAKER_03]: emptiness of the panels of the narration that put that tension in there.

26:20.724 --> 26:23.766
[SPEAKER_03]: You feel this slow creeping dread of something is going to happen.

26:23.806 --> 26:29.391
[SPEAKER_03]: That is, I don't think it meant to be present at all in this comic book.

26:30.091 --> 26:41.319
[SPEAKER_03]: It could have just used some sort of narration at the beginning or some sort of setup as a romance comic rather than dropping us out of this weird flower shop that's also a dog sitting operation situation.

26:42.180 --> 26:46.043
[SPEAKER_02]: But there was also that dude in the morning who was like, oh, I'm outta here.

26:46.083 --> 26:47.104
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't need breakfast.

26:47.124 --> 26:48.785
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, did they just sleep together?

26:48.885 --> 26:50.406
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, who is this guy?

26:50.727 --> 26:54.469
[SPEAKER_03]: They didn't, but again, that major thing like it was he had aged it, she had aged it.

26:54.629 --> 26:55.510
[SPEAKER_03]: Did they know each other?

26:55.590 --> 26:56.311
[SPEAKER_03]: What's happening?

26:56.611 --> 26:57.652
[SPEAKER_03]: And no, no, that.

26:58.278 --> 27:01.961
[SPEAKER_01]: Alex, let me just throw out here that you and I are a little bit out of the game.

27:02.442 --> 27:04.243
[SPEAKER_01]: So like there's a still tension.

27:04.323 --> 27:08.747
[SPEAKER_01]: There are a lot of people that tension of dating and hooking up maybe is high.

27:08.947 --> 27:12.770
[SPEAKER_01]: It's almost like the spite that under your pillow.

27:12.870 --> 27:18.315
[SPEAKER_03]: Would be you and your wife, you live the same place, you just live the same bed, it's very easy.

27:18.395 --> 27:19.215
[SPEAKER_03]: There's no tension there.

27:19.716 --> 27:20.456
[SPEAKER_03]: No, wow.

27:20.556 --> 27:24.560
[SPEAKER_03]: Not, well, like, oh, oh, oh, oh.

27:39.015 --> 27:55.370
[SPEAKER_03]: That man number of other person is having some romantic antagonists DC comics written by that fraction art by horror hand that is this issue is picking up on a lot of different things specifically that there is a scientist who Bruce Wayne has he says not dating but they're kind of

27:55.978 --> 27:59.860
[SPEAKER_03]: When they got into it, they had a thing going on.

27:59.880 --> 28:04.422
[SPEAKER_03]: And while they had a thing going on, there was two different factions.

28:04.602 --> 28:05.483
[SPEAKER_03]: One was trying to kill.

28:05.543 --> 28:09.164
[SPEAKER_03]: Her, the other was trying to kill him, specifically after this way.

28:09.665 --> 28:15.568
[SPEAKER_03]: And this ghost warrior woman who was trying to kill Bruce Wayne comes back in this issue and comes after him.

28:16.368 --> 28:17.849
[SPEAKER_03]: Another great issue of this book.

28:18.689 --> 28:23.576
[SPEAKER_01]: I think this is an epic run, like I feel like we are downplaying how great this run is.

28:23.976 --> 28:25.158
[SPEAKER_01]: The artist's fantastic.

28:25.218 --> 28:26.179
[SPEAKER_01]: It's so clean.

28:26.459 --> 28:29.123
[SPEAKER_01]: The splash pages are absolutely serene.

28:29.603 --> 28:33.649
[SPEAKER_01]: The title page with Ojo, sitting with the sword out.

28:33.689 --> 28:35.651
[SPEAKER_01]: The artist's ending on was so good.

28:36.252 --> 28:40.356
[SPEAKER_01]: And everything is great, the reveal at the end, this book works so hard.

28:40.756 --> 28:45.140
[SPEAKER_01]: When we interviewed Matt Fraction a while back, we were talking to him about what he wants to do with this.

28:45.180 --> 28:47.603
[SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, this is the only thing I'm doing.

28:47.843 --> 28:54.830
[SPEAKER_01]: And I feel like you can feel his immense focus on the page with just all the layers he's putting in here.

28:55.390 --> 29:08.537
[SPEAKER_01]: and how just clean and beautiful this whole story is feels different than anything else and it is I just think it's working so hard and it feels like it's under the radar a little bit for some reason.

29:09.269 --> 29:19.975
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I know it's a Batman book you would think it would be getting more attention and talk to about, but yeah, it is, it's just this great story that's bubbling and growing in each issue gets better and better.

29:20.275 --> 29:26.698
[SPEAKER_02]: First off, cool cover, I loved all the action, love the stuff going on, crazy last panel.

29:28.059 --> 29:37.564
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know, because sometimes I get worried that like, I'm crazy or it's just the similarity of an artist drawing people in similar, but yes, about that first time.

29:38.164 --> 30:00.797
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, because I'm wondering if, oh, the kind of assassin, because it's a similar build to the new Pennyworth that shows up so like I was like, is this her is that the disguise a version of her or is this like am I putting thing two things together that shouldn't be there, but man, I am I'm loving this issue, I loving all the things going on and I also love the

30:01.297 --> 30:17.916
[SPEAKER_02]: down time banter you know you guys were talking about what's fun to see sewers is on a beach or by a pool hanging out talking shop but like the back and forth that to rob in a Batman were having in this issue was great it was really cool it was great cats be in fact I agree I

30:18.477 --> 30:41.337
[SPEAKER_03]: the moment or the doorbell rings and they just look at each other like who the fuck would that be was just such a fun moment of both here who's else's come who the fuck is that yes very fun and I just want to say for clarity I that Batman is currently one of the best selling books in the comic book industry but I agree with you I think it is going under the reader in a weird way because of absolute Batman every

30:41.677 --> 30:42.959
[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody talks about that.

30:43.139 --> 30:44.721
[SPEAKER_03]: That's where everybody's focused is.

30:45.422 --> 30:47.184
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's not that nobody is reading this.

30:47.364 --> 30:48.966
[SPEAKER_03]: A ton of people are reading this.

30:49.427 --> 30:55.254
[SPEAKER_03]: But it doesn't get the same level of conversation because it's just a really good batman run versus this thing.

30:55.274 --> 30:58.598
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's like, transformed into a entire company, a company industry.

30:59.390 --> 31:25.301
[SPEAKER_01]: agreed one of the thing on this uh... we were talking about the unhortiness or i was of comics there's a panel in here where i'm batman is talking uh... what bruises talking about like yeah my son um... yet it's a had a crazy uh... connection here's how he came about and that that we in the montage of scenes is bruise sort of on top of tallya wearing pants looking down at her like what do i do next

31:26.681 --> 31:29.723
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, that panel I was like, come on.

31:30.263 --> 31:33.785
[SPEAKER_01]: Neither don't do this or do something a little bit more something else.

31:34.205 --> 31:40.188
[SPEAKER_01]: But he looks like he is truly out of ideas with his spandex on hovering.

31:40.608 --> 31:41.889
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know how to beat this.

31:42.749 --> 31:42.969
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

31:44.470 --> 31:47.051
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm the world's greatest detective and here's one mystery.

31:47.271 --> 31:48.232
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't solve.

31:49.797 --> 31:50.818
[SPEAKER_03]: where does this go?

31:50.838 --> 31:57.381
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, what if secret war is number one from Marvel, written by Alex Pactodale, Art by Kofu.

31:57.401 --> 32:01.243
[SPEAKER_03]: This is the latest in a line of 50th anniversary specials.

32:01.623 --> 32:09.447
[SPEAKER_03]: The Marvel is doing the idea here is what if the ultimate universe and not the regular Marvel universe survived the end of 2015 secret wars?

32:11.088 --> 32:21.656
[SPEAKER_03]: But we get that through where Miles went to the regular Marvel Universe here Peter Parker ends up in the original Ultimate Universe and we see how it spills out from there.

32:22.197 --> 32:29.402
[SPEAKER_03]: You know a couple of weeks back I was mentioning how by favorite what ifs are the ones like the Jerry Duggen one where it's like.

32:30.223 --> 32:31.785
[SPEAKER_03]: That was a simple thing happened by the end.

32:31.865 --> 32:33.027
[SPEAKER_03]: It's nuclear war out there.

32:33.047 --> 32:34.569
[SPEAKER_01]: And everyone was fucked.

32:34.890 --> 32:35.451
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

32:35.471 --> 32:36.672
[SPEAKER_01]: That was kind of good.

32:36.812 --> 32:38.835
[SPEAKER_03]: Towards this, this doesn't in a different mode.

32:38.895 --> 32:46.867
[SPEAKER_03]: But I thought this one was so good just to bring it back to that place of like, oh my god, the original ultimate universe was.

32:47.187 --> 33:10.731
[SPEAKER_03]: fucked up like it really was and that's what that's dives into here in a way that we've never really seen before just because it's Peter Parker seeing it through his eyes and it's great like I thought they did a really good job here it goes in some wild ways that I didn't see coming and it ends in a place that I thought was really cool as well.

33:10.791 --> 33:11.991
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a great one shot.

33:12.572 --> 33:14.472
[SPEAKER_01]: It ends in a real two-be continued

33:15.052 --> 33:17.900
[SPEAKER_01]: face and I think I sort of want that to know.

33:17.960 --> 33:19.624
[SPEAKER_02]: You feel a little bit weirder about it.

33:21.210 --> 33:24.372
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, but I like that, though, because it lets us imagine a little bit.

33:24.392 --> 33:34.018
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think the best what if stories either leave us with a fucked up revelation or set us a flow on a new stream based on the current continuity.

33:34.478 --> 33:36.099
[SPEAKER_01]: And I thought this is the latter in a good way.

33:36.419 --> 33:38.120
[SPEAKER_01]: But I grew the nostalgia.

33:38.240 --> 33:43.264
[SPEAKER_01]: I was feeling for this old school to me universe, which was a strange fucked up place.

33:43.744 --> 33:50.228
[SPEAKER_01]: And the way they made Peter Parker suffer the consequences of that, I thought was well done.

33:50.738 --> 33:57.660
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, it was an interesting idea where it was kind of like a Peter Parker was the audience and it was getting explained what was going on.

33:58.820 --> 34:04.942
[SPEAKER_02]: But the reaction to Hulk and this issue was awesome and really kind of a great idea.

34:05.022 --> 34:07.403
[SPEAKER_02]: Well executed arts fantastic.

34:07.983 --> 34:13.945
[SPEAKER_02]: It just was a little bit like we're nine pages in and they were still setting up the premise where I was like, all right, like.

34:15.125 --> 34:31.290
[SPEAKER_02]: I really hope this pays off, but I think it did, but I was just surprised that it's a one-shot because it did such a job of like setting everything up before we really got rolling that I was just like, oh man, I can't believe this is just it's already over because I was like all that.

34:31.430 --> 34:34.892
[SPEAKER_03]: I will say, I mean, I hear what you're saying because there's a lot of exposure there.

34:34.932 --> 34:39.933
[SPEAKER_03]: We get Nick Fury, Ultimate Nick Fury laying out what's going on in the ultimate

34:42.374 --> 34:47.096
[SPEAKER_03]: But on the other hand, big reminded of all of those crazy things that happened.

34:47.116 --> 34:49.256
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, I think I'll speak for myself.

34:49.336 --> 34:52.037
[SPEAKER_03]: But I think this also speaks for a lot of other comic book fans.

34:52.117 --> 34:55.418
[SPEAKER_03]: We remember early, period, original ultimate universe.

34:55.518 --> 34:58.279
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, everything was like very clean and really good.

34:58.299 --> 34:59.119
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, they were all done.

34:59.579 --> 35:02.700
[SPEAKER_03]: And then he starts like, things like, oh, yeah, galactus.

35:02.760 --> 35:05.521
[SPEAKER_03]: But your galactus came here and destroyed Jersey City.

35:05.541 --> 35:06.802
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, oh, right.

35:07.002 --> 35:07.482
[SPEAKER_03]: And then he's like,

35:07.842 --> 35:11.583
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah, Magneto caused a giant tidal wave to destroy New York, don't worry about it.

35:11.663 --> 35:14.124
[SPEAKER_03]: It was like, right, oh my god, this is crazy.

35:14.224 --> 35:18.305
[SPEAKER_03]: This is all of this stuff when entirely off the rails at the other.

35:18.765 --> 35:21.526
[SPEAKER_01]: Plus they're like, oh Nick Fury, yeah, he's a fucking liar.

35:21.546 --> 35:22.246
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't believe it.

35:22.266 --> 35:25.007
[SPEAKER_01]: That was a damn, they just lay that out.

35:25.387 --> 35:25.807
[SPEAKER_01]: That was good.

35:26.706 --> 35:27.286
[SPEAKER_03]: Great stuff.

35:27.487 --> 35:33.170
[SPEAKER_03]: Killer influences number one from IDW written by Joey Esposito, art by Valeria Burso.

35:33.330 --> 35:35.792
[SPEAKER_03]: I talked to Joey a couple of weeks.

35:35.852 --> 35:44.718
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe a couple of months back about this book, which is about a true crime podcaster and a serial killer and kind of a spoiler here, but this is the premise.

35:45.198 --> 35:50.482
[SPEAKER_03]: And up, teeling up together to see if they can help both of each other's careers.

35:50.502 --> 35:52.163
[SPEAKER_03]: That's kind of the basic concept here.

35:52.983 --> 35:54.884
[SPEAKER_03]: It's really messed up really well done.

35:54.904 --> 35:59.006
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought really well informed about true crime podcasts and just the general world.

35:59.026 --> 36:03.929
[SPEAKER_03]: In general, we've seen some other thing was like this a little bit.

36:03.949 --> 36:15.155
[SPEAKER_03]: There was that Kyle Stark's book from Dark Quarters a couple of months back that I'm blanking on the name of that hit on similar territory but was very different than this and I thought this work really nicely.

36:16.456 --> 36:19.399
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like this goes hard in the way that you want with something like this.

36:19.439 --> 36:27.765
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're going to be in this format of like, oh, a story about true crime podcasters, you want to have it be pushing in the border somewhere.

36:27.785 --> 36:36.852
[SPEAKER_01]: And I thought I thought it did with what the characters are willing to do and how they meet in the middle to be the monsters, to both be monsters on the same caliber.

36:36.872 --> 36:37.372
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was great.

36:37.392 --> 36:39.074
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought the art was really good on this as well.

36:39.494 --> 36:42.836
[SPEAKER_01]: Some great fucked up horror panels in the middle.

36:43.797 --> 36:44.197
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

36:45.453 --> 36:49.157
[SPEAKER_02]: I had a hard time with this Just because I don't know who to root for it first.

36:49.197 --> 37:08.053
[SPEAKER_02]: I was rooting for the girl where she was like, oh, you know She's getting pressured in by the serial killer did do something, but then she was like I can make us both famous and Then she gets rich off of his murder spree so now I'm like, oh, I guess I'm rooting for him to murder her But what what's what's going on?

37:08.133 --> 37:10.575
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, you don't actually have to root for anybody.

37:10.595 --> 37:11.376
[SPEAKER_02]: They can't hear you

37:12.212 --> 37:24.224
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, yeah, it's not how I operate and also there's no vote at the end on who is good news cover It looks like they're gonna play golf and there was no golf, so that was also misleading Well, there was some golf club.

37:25.105 --> 37:26.086
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah, that's that's true.

37:26.126 --> 37:27.668
[SPEAKER_02]: That was there there was a lot of clubs

37:28.857 --> 37:32.639
[SPEAKER_01]: What do you have liked the better if they just played a sick Puppah?

37:32.699 --> 37:35.941
[SPEAKER_02]: I love Puppah, thank you, come on dude.

37:35.981 --> 37:39.023
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that's a good tip we've talked to Joey about some times, Joey.

37:39.163 --> 37:46.047
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if you've finished writing this series, but if you want to pivot it into being about Puppah, I think you have a better hit on your hands for Pete.

37:46.487 --> 37:47.188
[SPEAKER_03]: That's specifically.

37:47.628 --> 37:50.130
[SPEAKER_03]: But, but Pete, that's what we always call the dead man.

37:50.350 --> 37:55.393
[SPEAKER_03]: Number two from DC Comics, run by W Maxwell Prince, art by Martin Barazo.

37:55.773 --> 38:00.536
[SPEAKER_03]: We are continuing the new adventures of a dead man in the main continuity.

38:01.016 --> 38:04.598
[SPEAKER_03]: He is dealing with some strange creatures that have emerged.

38:05.078 --> 38:09.739
[SPEAKER_03]: as well as wrestling with a bunch of other supernatural mysteries.

38:10.480 --> 38:17.261
[SPEAKER_03]: This issue he is tangling with Batman as well as plastic man and it's great.

38:17.281 --> 38:21.522
[SPEAKER_03]: The team for my screen that they're being as weird and as creative as you'd want them to be.

38:21.542 --> 38:22.923
[SPEAKER_03]: There are multiple

38:23.723 --> 38:36.427
[SPEAKER_03]: pages that identify the characters that like break down their origins into six panels, if I recall correctly, and they're all awesome, and it keeps coming at random intervals, which is a fun little bit throughout this issue.

38:37.388 --> 38:44.170
[SPEAKER_03]: I also just love the relationship between Batman and Deadbad in general, and I think it plays a really nicely here.

38:44.490 --> 38:46.271
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's it's really awesome.

38:46.431 --> 38:46.891
[SPEAKER_02]: I agree.

38:46.931 --> 38:48.692
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a blast of an issue.

38:48.753 --> 38:49.533
[SPEAKER_02]: This is so cool.

38:49.553 --> 38:55.637
[SPEAKER_02]: I also love the moment where like dead men tries to enter Batman and, you know, like he's had that happening before.

38:55.697 --> 39:00.840
[SPEAKER_02]: So now he, you know, has kind of things in place to make it harder for him with that thing.

39:00.880 --> 39:03.861
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just a smart choice that isn't overexplained.

39:05.062 --> 39:06.843
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, this is just so cool.

39:06.863 --> 39:08.184
[SPEAKER_02]: The art's unbelievable.

39:08.224 --> 39:09.845
[SPEAKER_02]: This is such an amazing team.

39:10.345 --> 39:16.329
[SPEAKER_02]: and such a great use of characters and so smart by DZ to put this team on Deadman.

39:16.349 --> 39:19.352
[SPEAKER_02]: I just, they're knocking this out of the park.

39:19.752 --> 39:21.053
[SPEAKER_02]: Fun last panel.

39:22.093 --> 39:24.795
[SPEAKER_02]: This is an absolute blast from start to finish.

39:24.835 --> 39:25.956
[SPEAKER_02]: They killed this issue.

39:25.976 --> 39:26.977
[SPEAKER_02]: This is fantastic.

39:28.066 --> 39:28.626
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's really good.

39:28.646 --> 39:38.892
[SPEAKER_01]: I love the sort of deeper mythological philosophical religious bookends they're doing here on the front and back.

39:39.432 --> 39:42.254
[SPEAKER_01]: And then the fun they're having with Plastic Man and this is great.

39:42.534 --> 39:48.538
[SPEAKER_01]: I love the elongated man, uh, Plastic Man correction, which I was like long time coming for me.

39:49.718 --> 40:10.837
[SPEAKER_01]: And the real breakdown, real dead man breakdown of plastic man, his foil or his partner of another Ghost from the past, I think it's just a really smart innovation to give him here rather than have so much of Boston brand comics are him being Musing as he takes possession of different bodies, and I like that he actually has someone to speak to in this.

40:11.638 --> 40:11.758
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah

40:12.688 --> 40:36.626
[SPEAKER_03]: Ironman number seven from Marvel written by Joshua Williams in art by Iván Randall working off the second arc here as Ironman now has a school of kids who are all made in his mold that Roody is not necessarily approving of and we say why in this issue meanwhile his gosh I'm Blakey on the name of the character but the guy who is potentially the next Tony Stark is now the leader of aim

40:37.887 --> 40:41.750
[SPEAKER_03]: and coming directly for Tony Stark with some innovations of his own.

40:42.210 --> 40:45.873
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like this continues a great run on this title.

40:45.973 --> 40:47.073
[SPEAKER_03]: How are you guys feeling?

40:47.113 --> 40:48.014
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree.

40:48.474 --> 40:50.095
[SPEAKER_02]: First off, this is a badass cover.

40:50.636 --> 40:51.256
[SPEAKER_02]: Really cool.

40:51.816 --> 40:53.598
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, yeah, I fun.

40:54.458 --> 40:56.040
[SPEAKER_02]: Last panel villain reveal.

40:56.080 --> 41:07.150
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a really great package Love the action love the art and I am on war machine side Tony is really fucking shit up He is doing too much.

41:07.190 --> 41:09.212
[SPEAKER_02]: He needs to do less in these out of control.

41:09.292 --> 41:10.794
[SPEAKER_02]: So team war machine

41:12.672 --> 41:15.396
[SPEAKER_01]: You're like, you want your rooting for her aim?

41:15.416 --> 41:16.698
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you want aim to win?

41:17.098 --> 41:17.939
[SPEAKER_02]: No, no.

41:18.079 --> 41:21.624
[SPEAKER_02]: I just think Tony is playing dangerously and playing loose.

41:21.985 --> 41:25.950
[SPEAKER_02]: And, you know, he needs warm machine to kind of clean up all of his shit.

41:27.270 --> 41:28.892
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I, I really like this.

41:29.132 --> 41:39.402
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's just so smart that Tony thinks the, the protege Ironman, I'll call him, who is on Amside is dead and feeling guilty about it.

41:39.462 --> 41:46.490
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's what's driving him to put together this group of kids to be his, uh, future army.

41:47.010 --> 41:53.813
[SPEAKER_01]: Well at the same time, that person that he's feeling so upset about is Plotty against him is just great character positioning.

41:54.253 --> 42:07.138
[SPEAKER_01]: With Matt a mask who we get in the the cold open in this issue, he's still caught up on and thinking about, but it's just really nice, everybody is pointed in a different direction in a way that I think is really cool.

42:07.838 --> 42:10.960
[SPEAKER_01]: And a lot of great splash pages in this.

42:11.500 --> 42:21.726
[SPEAKER_01]: I was surprised how many there were and I thought it was really beautiful like with the warm machine and Iron Man sort of flying around Sunset's beautiful.

42:23.207 --> 42:28.009
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, the last thing I'll throw out there is when we talk to Joshua Williamson a couple of weeks back.

42:28.109 --> 42:33.012
[SPEAKER_03]: He mentioned there's a secret in the series that nobody has figured out yet and I definitely like

42:34.378 --> 42:36.401
[SPEAKER_03]: trying to focus it and figure out what that is.

42:36.421 --> 42:42.168
[SPEAKER_03]: I have no idea after this issue, but if any of our listeners or viewers have an idea.

42:43.562 --> 42:54.411
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like it has to be a mad-a-mask base, because that feels like the thing that's cooking on the side, that we aren't, that isn't part of the central core here.

42:55.091 --> 43:07.721
[SPEAKER_01]: And it is, the story started with her with an unjustified motivation that she was like, what I'm going to do is threaten the bunch of geniuses until they become Tony Stark and I was like, what, why are you doing, what, what did this come from?

43:07.942 --> 43:12.125
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a crazy idea, lady, so I don't know, that's what, that's what I'm sniffing.

43:13.228 --> 43:14.109
[SPEAKER_03]: We shall see.

43:14.129 --> 43:17.212
[SPEAKER_03]: We'll also see our next book, Bees of Booty Cannon.

43:17.312 --> 43:24.139
[SPEAKER_03]: Number one from Dark Horse Comics written by Julio Anta, Art by Daniel Irrizzelli.

43:24.439 --> 43:24.740
[SPEAKER_03]: Sorry.

43:24.880 --> 43:27.182
[SPEAKER_02]: I hope we get to talk to the writers sometime.

43:27.202 --> 43:28.003
[SPEAKER_02]: You know what I'm saying now?

43:28.043 --> 43:28.844
[SPEAKER_02]: That would be great.

43:33.591 --> 43:33.872
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

43:34.212 --> 43:35.613
[SPEAKER_02]: Have any fun with their Pete?

43:36.033 --> 43:41.217
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I just hope we do it because, you know, it would be nice to talk about such a cool project that they're working on.

43:41.377 --> 43:41.777
[SPEAKER_02]: I agree.

43:41.797 --> 43:42.478
[SPEAKER_02]: It's too bad.

43:42.818 --> 43:43.118
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

43:43.318 --> 43:44.019
[SPEAKER_02]: It's too bad.

43:44.319 --> 43:44.499
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

43:44.539 --> 43:44.859
[SPEAKER_02]: It's too bad.

43:44.919 --> 43:45.079
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

43:45.100 --> 43:45.500
[SPEAKER_02]: It's too bad.

43:45.520 --> 43:45.620
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

43:45.640 --> 43:47.341
[SPEAKER_03]: It's too bad.

43:47.361 --> 43:47.741
[SPEAKER_03]: I agree.

43:47.761 --> 43:48.242
[SPEAKER_03]: It's too bad.

43:48.262 --> 43:48.982
[SPEAKER_01]: I agree.

43:49.002 --> 43:49.903
[SPEAKER_01]: It's too bad.

43:50.103 --> 43:50.263
[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.

43:50.323 --> 43:52.385
[SPEAKER_01]: It's too bad.

43:52.425 --> 43:52.545
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

43:52.565 --> 43:52.925
[SPEAKER_01]: It's too bad.

43:53.285 --> 43:53.545
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

43:53.565 --> 43:54.446
[SPEAKER_01]: It's too bad.

43:54.466 --> 43:55.227
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's too bad.

43:56.615 --> 43:57.555
[SPEAKER_02]: What are you doing?

43:57.575 --> 44:00.316
[SPEAKER_02]: I actually only hit something on my screen.

44:00.376 --> 44:00.576
[SPEAKER_02]: Great.

44:00.636 --> 44:03.837
[SPEAKER_02]: For anybody who's listening, Pete, Rewarder, video strip.

44:03.957 --> 44:07.898
[SPEAKER_03]: OK, so we're talking about, we did talk to William on this week's live show.

44:07.918 --> 44:08.598
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, we did.

44:09.038 --> 44:10.378
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, please stop pressing stuff.

44:10.838 --> 44:13.699
[SPEAKER_03]: We are talking to him, so definitely go to listen to him.

44:13.719 --> 44:14.179
[SPEAKER_03]: I did a few.

44:14.559 --> 44:19.460
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a part of the true weird line and it deals with the realities of Puerto Rico.

44:19.820 --> 44:25.462
[SPEAKER_03]: Alongside a chupacabra is on the loose, is an added stressor going on there.

44:26.622 --> 44:28.884
[SPEAKER_03]: hero that Porter Rico deeds.

44:29.064 --> 44:30.725
[SPEAKER_03]: I guess we'll find out as read the book.

44:31.425 --> 44:37.069
[SPEAKER_03]: As we talked about in the show, I thought this was really thoughtfully written and beautifully drawn throughout.

44:37.269 --> 44:39.431
[SPEAKER_03]: So I'm really looking forward to following this book.

44:39.831 --> 44:46.395
[SPEAKER_03]: It's very similar to, oh my god, a blank out of the day again, but the let the devil right went in.

44:46.595 --> 44:51.679
[SPEAKER_03]: Whatever the book was by James Tyden that was the more fictionalized they out of the true weird line.

44:51.899 --> 44:53.840
[SPEAKER_03]: This is more in line with that versus a

44:56.473 --> 45:18.168
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's such a great comic, it's powerful, it's beautiful, it's a really impressive piece of work and yeah, I'm hoping for good stuff but I don't know man, it could get bad first but yeah, it's such a great package as far as art and writing.

45:21.100 --> 45:22.182
[SPEAKER_01]: Really enjoyed this as well.

45:22.262 --> 45:27.372
[SPEAKER_01]: Love talking to Julio about this great book, Love The Villain.

45:27.432 --> 45:30.979
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's setting up to be something that I'm excited about.

45:31.119 --> 45:32.001
[SPEAKER_01]: And I hope he does more.

45:32.962 --> 45:33.203
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

45:34.177 --> 45:52.685
[SPEAKER_03]: absolute green lantern number 16 from DC Comics written by all uing art by Sid Cody and we are continuing the massive fight that's happening in space with green lantern joe, a tomer ray and a bunch of other folks uh... celestial arrives in this issue and then we also get

45:53.405 --> 45:59.148
[SPEAKER_03]: surprise reveal of another classic character at the edge here in a way that I thought was terrifying.

45:59.648 --> 46:21.459
[SPEAKER_03]: I've been a little mixed about this book just because it is hard to hold onto the story sometimes, but this issue really worked for me mostly because of those big reveals and the moves that Joe makes particularly here to sort of change the game in terms of taking on Bogo who is the black lantern who is bringing death.

46:21.879 --> 46:22.920
[SPEAKER_03]: Pete, what do you think about this one?

46:23.260 --> 46:26.943
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this first off a cool cover but also fucked up cover.

46:27.003 --> 46:28.364
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't like to see Joe like that.

46:28.444 --> 46:35.710
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, this is really just kind of messed up but great.

46:35.750 --> 46:37.732
[SPEAKER_02]: The arts awesome.

46:38.192 --> 46:39.934
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, there's a lack going on in this issue.

46:42.583 --> 47:10.516
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... it is great stuff when we move on talk about the mortal thore number twelve from marvel written by all uing art by hasty's uh... saisees and uh... this issue we get a sicker jolson facing down the serpent who is actually done oblique taken over by jora monger the world serpent so there's a lot of stuff going on here they have to lay out and get you cut up in

47:12.557 --> 47:16.660
[SPEAKER_03]: But they do, and Pete, you're cheering, so what do you think?

47:16.820 --> 47:19.941
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I was surprised that I'm still enjoying this.

47:19.981 --> 47:32.268
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, 12-thousand, we're still battling with this like, Izzy Thor, Izzy kind of Thor, we get it kind of explained as we go on, but I'm still having a blast with how it's being done.

47:32.428 --> 47:39.372
[SPEAKER_02]: And first off, like, the art and the character work on this, like that kind of like, panel where it's like,

47:39.692 --> 47:42.013
[SPEAKER_02]: The snake is part of the body.

47:42.333 --> 48:02.042
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just really cool the character design the art is just really impressive the kind of snake But guy reveal is just a truly such an epic panel that I was so moved by but yeah, I love this Just kind of like they're talking about the snap of the hammer coming back near hand

48:02.502 --> 48:28.894
[SPEAKER_02]: and how that's something you can't really forget so that I think that's such a great explanation of why he has like a hammer on his string which seems silly but kind of makes sense more in this issue yeah I've been super impressed with this if you would have like sat down and said hey we're gonna have this story about Thor but it's not Thor and he's kind of Thor but he isn't I would have been like I know I wouldn't like this but it was really very impressive and cool

48:30.120 --> 48:31.061
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, great stuff.

48:31.281 --> 48:37.724
[SPEAKER_03]: Next up, the shale in cowboy staying AI live at number one from Dark Horse Comics by Jeff Darrow.

48:37.744 --> 48:40.145
[SPEAKER_03]: There's another wild adventure of the shale in cowboy.

48:40.726 --> 48:47.429
[SPEAKER_03]: If you ever read this book, it's exactly what it sounds like for the title that is a guy who wanders the desert in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

48:47.965 --> 48:53.089
[SPEAKER_03]: He practiced shale in, he kills people, he fights them, but he's very peaceful about it.

48:53.990 --> 49:10.142
[SPEAKER_03]: And this particular one he is dealing with a lot of kind of more modern stuff, as you could probably lead to it from the title, but through the lens, this post-apocalyptic post-apocalyptic, excuse me, landscape, Justin, what did you think about this one?

49:10.762 --> 49:12.745
[SPEAKER_01]: Great call coming to me.

49:12.905 --> 49:16.229
[SPEAKER_01]: I really I mean the Jeff Darrellard.

49:16.449 --> 49:29.245
[SPEAKER_01]: You just can't It's just there's a point in this issue where he slices the a bottle a plastic bottle I have to get the message out which I was like sort of a necessary but pretty sick that you did it that way

49:30.265 --> 49:37.089
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, it's necessary for the animals who they're talking animals are like, well, we've really tried to get that bottle open for years.

49:37.249 --> 49:37.669
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

49:37.729 --> 49:38.329
[SPEAKER_03]: How'd you do that?

49:38.349 --> 49:38.589
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

49:39.170 --> 49:44.352
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just every single part of this book is always so weird in that very specific Jeff Darryl.

49:44.392 --> 49:46.093
[SPEAKER_03]: We're like, yeah, you just kind of roll with it.

49:46.913 --> 49:47.533
[SPEAKER_02]: I love this.

49:47.553 --> 49:50.274
[SPEAKER_02]: I love the so much, the art styles, fantastic.

49:50.735 --> 49:52.155
[SPEAKER_02]: Love the talking pets.

49:52.595 --> 49:53.996
[SPEAKER_02]: This is just badass.

49:54.136 --> 49:54.836
[SPEAKER_02]: It's silly.

49:55.256 --> 49:56.377
[SPEAKER_02]: It's all of these things.

49:56.477 --> 50:00.578
[SPEAKER_02]: I love the old, the kind of walk in the earth, writing wrongs, motif.

50:00.618 --> 50:04.120
[SPEAKER_02]: This is just such a cool, unique comic.

50:04.580 --> 50:06.321
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm having such a blast.

50:06.501 --> 50:08.702
[SPEAKER_02]: The kind of main character, barely talks.

50:09.102 --> 50:11.583
[SPEAKER_02]: This is just such a, well, like, excuse me.

50:11.623 --> 50:12.643
[SPEAKER_01]: Your favorite part.

50:12.823 --> 50:13.083
[SPEAKER_01]: I love

50:15.284 --> 50:36.972
[SPEAKER_02]: the art is a real kind of main character and what did you like you think is the bubbles that bother you or is it about the like narration uh... i just uh... it gets in the way the art man showcase the art interesting uh... you might want to check out something called art uh... it's a very interesting can we do an art just as a gesture

50:38.696 --> 50:40.776
[SPEAKER_03]: Poison County number 46 from T.C.

50:40.796 --> 50:44.357
[SPEAKER_03]: Comics written by G. Willables and Art by Leandro Fernandez.

50:45.237 --> 50:49.918
[SPEAKER_03]: Now Poison Ivy is mayor, but we don't really get to see her this issue as instead.

50:50.138 --> 51:01.701
[SPEAKER_03]: We focus on Janet for HR who is now part of her administration as well as her other aide who is magical in nature as they went through the city.

51:02.441 --> 51:09.626
[SPEAKER_03]: we get some big revelations to this issue anyway as we're slowly leading up to the bad seeds crossover that's coming down the laid peat.

51:09.766 --> 51:10.586
[SPEAKER_03]: What's going on?

51:10.626 --> 51:14.249
[SPEAKER_02]: Now, I thought of you, Alex, when I was reading this, I have a question for you.

51:14.269 --> 51:15.129
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you.

51:15.209 --> 51:22.754
[SPEAKER_02]: You hate it when a title has a character in the title of the comic, but then isn't in the comic.

51:22.774 --> 51:27.217
[SPEAKER_02]: So, Poison Ivy is the title of this issue, but she's not really in here.

51:27.517 --> 51:28.998
[SPEAKER_02]: Did that drive you nuts?

51:29.038 --> 51:30.079
[SPEAKER_02]: Because I know in the past,

51:30.499 --> 51:48.356
[SPEAKER_02]: Interesting, that's nothing that has ever bothered me and doesn't currently bother you by the time they're going to say this time it continue not to bother me Man, I completely disagree I've heard you talk about numerous times how and something's titled something and they're not in it It drives you nuts.

51:48.456 --> 51:55.803
[SPEAKER_02]: So now that's not what I've said at all and thank you so much See do for years and you have said that so I don't really have not been

51:56.783 --> 51:59.865
[SPEAKER_01]: You've been on a podcast with him for years, Liz.

52:00.065 --> 52:03.186
[SPEAKER_01]: No, it's a step too far.

52:03.326 --> 52:09.748
[SPEAKER_03]: No, what Pete is actually getting at is when something is called, I'm going to chop you into little bits and nobody gets chopped into little bits.

52:09.908 --> 52:16.711
[SPEAKER_03]: The comic book, I feel like that's a little bit of a misnomer, particularly if they pull out a knife at the end of the first station.

52:16.731 --> 52:17.792
[SPEAKER_03]: They're like, here we go.

52:17.812 --> 52:18.612
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't like that.

52:19.412 --> 52:20.753
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's chop it a little bit early.

52:20.793 --> 52:21.113
[SPEAKER_03]: Thank you.

52:21.193 --> 52:22.613
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like how he was so mad.

52:23.073 --> 52:35.858
[SPEAKER_02]: Alex is so mad about the dog sitter because there was no dog that sat He was standing to attach it and saluted No, there was that one panel where the dog did sit for her for her

52:36.198 --> 52:59.778
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyways, all that aside, I didn't think this was an interesting issue, you know, cops being horrible, which is always heartbreaking, but yeah, you know, there's a, like going on, but it really just felt like it was setting things up, you know, shit is about to go down, but this one is really kind of focused on the team, that is handling things.

52:59.838 --> 53:03.722
[SPEAKER_02]: So, yeah, this is kind of a building issue, if you will.

53:05.186 --> 53:08.767
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, there's so much expansion happening in this title.

53:09.067 --> 53:16.128
[SPEAKER_01]: We've the the commitment to the Gotham Mayor storyline and the bureaucracy that is laid out in this issue.

53:16.188 --> 53:17.689
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's really interesting.

53:17.809 --> 53:23.190
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a bit of a swirl of out of where we've been with this comic and I'm curious where it's going.

53:23.350 --> 53:24.530
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm fully on board with it.

53:24.670 --> 53:27.451
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, it's just feels so different yet.

53:28.711 --> 53:30.072
[SPEAKER_01]: I like the character so much.

53:30.152 --> 53:35.276
[SPEAKER_01]: Janet is just a great lighting and a bottle character that I always want to see.

53:36.497 --> 53:43.821
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and the last thing that I'll say about this is I just appreciate that they can maintain an entire comic here without poison Ivy in it.

53:43.901 --> 53:51.286
[SPEAKER_03]: You feel her presence throughout, but that's a tribute to the supported cast and how strong they are that you can still do that.

53:51.346 --> 53:51.887
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's great.

53:52.728 --> 53:57.332
[SPEAKER_03]: Fantastic for number 13 from Marvel Written by Ryan North, Art by Andrés Serentino.

53:57.472 --> 53:59.714
[SPEAKER_03]: I will just say I think this is my favorite issue.

54:00.595 --> 54:01.796
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah.

54:02.017 --> 54:03.878
[SPEAKER_03]: It is so ridiculous.

54:04.399 --> 54:05.500
[SPEAKER_03]: So embarrassing.

54:05.620 --> 54:08.002
[SPEAKER_03]: The ad plot here.

54:08.963 --> 54:16.985
[SPEAKER_03]: is that Johnny Storm comes up with an idea that they, and I almost hesitate to mention it, because you should just go read it.

54:17.005 --> 54:18.806
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't listen to what I'm saying.

54:18.846 --> 54:19.666
[SPEAKER_03]: Go read the book.

54:19.746 --> 54:25.948
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to say it anyway, but just like give you spoiler space to turn off the podcast and then come back after this, because it's just so much fun.

54:26.528 --> 54:28.468
[SPEAKER_03]: Ghost writer shows up to a tab.

54:29.308 --> 54:31.829
[SPEAKER_03]: Putting one of the fantastic fours old villains.

54:31.869 --> 54:32.569
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like, I'm going to

54:35.490 --> 54:37.312
[SPEAKER_01]: Nick scratch the original scratch.

54:37.532 --> 54:57.089
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, I had it turns out that it's actually Johnny came up with a plan to do a stealth mission where he and Sue Mimic looking like Ghost Rider, he puts a set on fire that she makes us head invisible, so he's a skull to dress up as Ghost Rider And they're like, wow, that works so well.

54:57.830 --> 54:59.512
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's do it to everybody

55:00.332 --> 55:08.876
[SPEAKER_03]: And it just spits, it's like such a ridiculous rope of an issue that just gets wilder and a complementary stupider as it goes.

55:08.916 --> 55:09.136
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

55:09.296 --> 55:13.918
[SPEAKER_03]: Like this is maybe the stupider's the fantastic for ever been added is so funny.

55:14.818 --> 55:15.799
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that's interesting.

55:16.380 --> 55:17.541
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I agree with you completely.

55:17.561 --> 55:26.649
[SPEAKER_01]: This feels like an idea that Ryan North just like wrote down, came back to, is like, still noodling on and just like couldn't help but make it a comic.

55:27.310 --> 55:32.214
[SPEAKER_01]: The way that they, they heightened the penance stare and this is so funny.

55:32.535 --> 55:35.517
[SPEAKER_01]: Where is I, I'll do the penance stare and then I don't do it.

55:35.597 --> 55:39.120
[SPEAKER_01]: No, it will ruin my soul and then he can't.

55:39.180 --> 55:40.482
[SPEAKER_01]: By the end, he's like, it's nothing.

55:40.522 --> 55:41.643
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not into the power set.

55:42.143 --> 55:50.966
[SPEAKER_01]: But I think the twist that really got it for me is when Reed has to use his powers in this very weird way to save the day in the end, which I thought was very simple.

55:51.586 --> 55:59.309
[SPEAKER_03]: That's great too, just because the explanation there is like, well, we can't possibly be Ghost Rider, and then it is Reed Ray and go so I'm just babysitting.

55:59.329 --> 56:01.370
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like, well, what if I could be Ghost Rider?

56:01.410 --> 56:02.470
[SPEAKER_03]: How would that work?

56:03.311 --> 56:19.545
[SPEAKER_03]: they're all being ghost writer and then the punchlight being the real ghost writer showing up and being like doing like doing the point to get things to be like I'm watching you guys stop being ghost writer is very funny one of the funniest weirdest comics of the year I think.

56:20.133 --> 56:20.593
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, all right.

56:20.613 --> 56:25.938
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I'm glad you guys had fun, but, uh, I was on a emotional roller coaster.

56:26.278 --> 56:33.524
[SPEAKER_02]: I got excited when I saw this cover because I was like sick, ghostwriter, but then it says no ghostwriter and I was like, oh, that makes me sad.

56:33.905 --> 56:45.775
[SPEAKER_02]: And then I read this comic and like these assholes are supposed to be so smart and supposed to be fighting crime and saving the world and they're fucking around and they're not they're fighting to make your crime.

56:46.095 --> 56:47.756
[SPEAKER_02]: No, they're doing bullshit.

56:47.776 --> 56:50.178
[SPEAKER_02]: They're like, oh, don't bother us anymore.

56:50.278 --> 56:51.459
[SPEAKER_02]: We're good guys.

56:51.539 --> 56:52.960
[SPEAKER_02]: You're a bad person.

56:52.980 --> 56:56.823
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, you guys are playing with fire.

56:57.084 --> 57:00.106
[SPEAKER_02]: If the ghost racer finds out, you're pretending to be him.

57:00.346 --> 57:01.447
[SPEAKER_02]: You're gonna be fucked.

57:01.807 --> 57:04.890
[SPEAKER_02]: And then having the ghost rider as a punch on a thin.

57:04.950 --> 57:06.191
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, fuck you guys.

57:06.471 --> 57:08.132
[SPEAKER_02]: You fucking abusing your power.

57:08.412 --> 57:09.593
[SPEAKER_02]: It's fucking bullshit.

57:09.913 --> 57:10.494
[SPEAKER_02]: Fuck you.

57:11.315 --> 57:11.815
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what?

57:11.895 --> 57:15.578
[SPEAKER_01]: You say that, but if you can walk around for a while and pretend to be ghost rider,

57:15.938 --> 57:16.499
[SPEAKER_01]: you would.

57:17.620 --> 57:18.301
[SPEAKER_02]: You would.

57:18.341 --> 57:23.667
[SPEAKER_02]: No way because that means cause writers real and there's no way I wouldn't fuck with that dude.

57:23.687 --> 57:25.769
[SPEAKER_02]: That doesn't give me a lot of stuff.

57:25.889 --> 57:31.415
[SPEAKER_03]: You woke up one day and suddenly could turn into a flavored ghost head, but had no penance to her.

57:31.515 --> 57:33.657
[SPEAKER_03]: I guarantee you'd be like penance to her.

57:34.258 --> 57:39.301
[SPEAKER_03]: You walk into a cheese steak place and be like, hey, I got a pedestal if you don't give me one with whiz.

57:40.062 --> 57:45.706
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh man, I wasn't with you, and then you brought up cheese steak sounds like, oh, maybe one.

57:45.826 --> 57:50.229
[SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, decide to do it better with Justin or Pete, and you'll either like this comic or not.

57:50.449 --> 57:52.631
[SPEAKER_03]: Royals number four from image comics.

57:53.451 --> 58:06.297
[SPEAKER_03]: Written by Derrick Kirkkeb, art by Jacob Perez, this is following two psychic brothers who started off just running a card game and ended up in much bigger trouble in the expected.

58:06.657 --> 58:19.963
[SPEAKER_03]: We got a big mythology breakdown here about how this world works and a lot of stuff beyond it, as well as more danger, particularly picking up on the insane cliffhanger of the last issue which found both brothers shot and killed.

58:20.764 --> 58:27.946
[SPEAKER_03]: And there's more to come, though, and we find out why here, this is a great creative series, a beautiful art throughout this great.

58:28.459 --> 58:32.062
[SPEAKER_02]: I absolutely love this, such a cool cover.

58:32.542 --> 58:38.807
[SPEAKER_02]: Holy shit, a cow cliffhanger, you don't get that a lot, but yeah, this is an absolute blast.

58:39.707 --> 58:53.657
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm loving the choices that they're made, but man, this could be a horrible idea to try to go save this sisters and it could be a trap, but I'm on board, this is just the art, all the twists and turns.

58:53.977 --> 58:55.999
[SPEAKER_02]: This is such a great comic, I'm really loving this.

58:56.801 --> 58:57.562
[SPEAKER_01]: What a surprise.

58:57.602 --> 58:59.265
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like this whole series has been.

58:59.586 --> 59:05.236
[SPEAKER_01]: And the fact that we get the big mythology drop here in the fourth issue, I think is well done.

59:05.256 --> 59:10.184
[SPEAKER_01]: It feels, it's really hard to time that, I think, as a, a, a,

59:10.833 --> 59:14.975
[SPEAKER_01]: an indie story, a story that you're not, there's no IP behind, you're just launching.

59:15.475 --> 59:20.237
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that this was did a really great job of making us want to, and then giving it to us in a nice chunk.

59:21.097 --> 59:29.600
[SPEAKER_01]: And I like the way that everyone's been split up in a smart way, where we don't quite know how it's going to come together.

59:30.340 --> 59:32.481
[SPEAKER_01]: It's, again, hard to do in very surprising.

59:32.861 --> 59:34.182
[SPEAKER_01]: One of my favorite series going right now.

59:35.485 --> 59:41.046
[SPEAKER_03]: Supergirl survived number two from DC Comics written by Ethan S. Parker and Griffin Sheridan art by Rod Rice.

59:41.066 --> 59:51.389
[SPEAKER_03]: This is an else world's book that found supergirl and baby Callel both jamming into his little baby rocket, not getting too far from Krypton before exploded.

59:52.129 --> 01:00:01.291
[SPEAKER_03]: And this issue were jumping between two timelines much later in the timeline when they're tried to escape from the little bow gang, as well as picking up to show a little bit of what

01:00:04.352 --> 01:00:14.187
[SPEAKER_03]: I really like the first issue of this, but this one is even better, it's taking things to some absolutely wild, elsewhere places, really good series so far.

01:00:15.037 --> 01:00:22.102
[SPEAKER_01]: The incorporation of the Lobo gang felt a little movie tie in E to me, but I actually think it was better.

01:00:22.263 --> 01:00:23.504
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it worked really well.

01:00:23.984 --> 01:00:30.869
[SPEAKER_01]: And then when we get some, I won't say more than to say it's a little bit of the Green Lantern score shows up.

01:00:31.350 --> 01:00:32.631
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was awesome.

01:00:33.011 --> 01:00:34.812
[SPEAKER_01]: Great reveal on the last page.

01:00:35.313 --> 01:00:42.218
[SPEAKER_01]: This is another comic that is really surprising and punching above its weight when it comes to just great superhero storytelling.

01:00:42.607 --> 01:00:43.428
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree.

01:00:43.448 --> 01:00:44.648
[SPEAKER_02]: This is really fun.

01:00:45.489 --> 01:00:46.830
[SPEAKER_02]: Love the Lobo stuff.

01:00:46.990 --> 01:00:48.731
[SPEAKER_02]: Cool last panel reveal.

01:00:48.751 --> 01:00:52.514
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, amazing art tons of action.

01:00:52.574 --> 01:00:54.155
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a really fun issue.

01:00:55.216 --> 01:00:56.377
[SPEAKER_02]: Really enjoying this arc.

01:00:56.717 --> 01:00:58.578
[SPEAKER_02]: Like the twist and turns.

01:00:59.099 --> 01:00:59.319
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

01:01:01.102 --> 01:01:02.843
[SPEAKER_03]: Next up, Challenges of Do, Mr.

01:01:02.863 --> 01:01:06.826
[SPEAKER_03]: Fantastic Number 1, from Marvel Written by Alliguing, Art by Mike Henderson.

01:01:07.326 --> 01:01:12.470
[SPEAKER_03]: This is, maybe they did this before, but they're definitely doing this more frequently now.

01:01:12.550 --> 01:01:13.691
[SPEAKER_03]: There have this series.

01:01:13.731 --> 01:01:17.613
[SPEAKER_03]: They have a Punisher versus Spider-Man series that's gonna be due to viewing next month.

01:01:18.214 --> 01:01:24.278
[SPEAKER_03]: And both of these, the idea is to show moments throughout history of a character that is definitely movie-tion.

01:01:24.738 --> 01:01:24.938
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

01:01:26.099 --> 01:01:28.241
[SPEAKER_03]: expand on plot from the comics.

01:01:28.301 --> 01:01:34.305
[SPEAKER_03]: So this is starting of course with the first meeting of Reed Richards and Dr. Doom and showing that at a greater length.

01:01:34.685 --> 01:01:38.088
[SPEAKER_03]: Same thing's going to happen again with Punisher and Spider-Man next month.

01:01:38.128 --> 01:01:40.890
[SPEAKER_03]: We'll be getting a series focusing on different moments through history.

01:01:41.330 --> 01:01:42.911
[SPEAKER_03]: But this is essentially a one shot.

01:01:42.931 --> 01:01:44.112
[SPEAKER_03]: There's not a bigger plot here.

01:01:44.492 --> 01:01:46.254
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just they're in college together.

01:01:46.294 --> 01:01:48.235
[SPEAKER_03]: We see the moment when Doom wrecks his face.

01:01:48.595 --> 01:01:51.958
[SPEAKER_03]: Plames it on Richards and we go a little and expand beyond that.

01:01:52.338 --> 01:01:54.920
[SPEAKER_03]: So what did you think given all that about this issue?

01:01:55.360 --> 01:02:16.333
[SPEAKER_01]: We're in a Doom Renaissance, and this is just another, like there's just so much to do with stuff happening right now, and I will say, you know, we had the one world under Doom stuff that I think was a bit of a miss because it was so big, but this era where we're getting a lot of like weirder esoteric series focusing and do my think is

01:02:16.793 --> 01:02:19.658
[SPEAKER_01]: Really where we want to be in, especially in relation to the movie.

01:02:20.138 --> 01:02:29.071
[SPEAKER_01]: So I thought this is excellent I really love the way they position read Richards and Dr. Doom as Making the same mistake in their calculations over the course of this.

01:02:29.111 --> 01:02:31.835
[SPEAKER_01]: We sort of ride with both of them as they're experimenting

01:02:32.642 --> 01:02:35.925
[SPEAKER_01]: and read takes the criticism and is like, oh, thank you.

01:02:36.105 --> 01:02:36.986
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's super helpful.

01:02:37.006 --> 01:02:37.987
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's collaborate more.

01:02:38.467 --> 01:02:41.009
[SPEAKER_01]: And Doom is like, how cute you.

01:02:41.029 --> 01:02:42.231
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what I'll do.

01:02:42.271 --> 01:02:45.794
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll try this experiment on my face, and he pays the price.

01:02:46.554 --> 01:02:50.638
[SPEAKER_01]: That's just a great, the valuing boils down the characters to that moment.

01:02:50.678 --> 01:02:57.364
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that's a really smart crystallization of the two sides of the Doom Richards coin that we're always flipping.

01:02:58.339 --> 01:03:00.299
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree this is really cool.

01:03:00.399 --> 01:03:05.681
[SPEAKER_02]: I really like this, you know, the back and forth between these two characters is so great.

01:03:06.001 --> 01:03:14.902
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's kind of have a moment in time before all the madness happens where they're just kind of interacting as students is very interesting and cool.

01:03:15.583 --> 01:03:17.583
[SPEAKER_02]: I also just want to take a moment.

01:03:17.643 --> 01:03:27.205
[SPEAKER_02]: Marvel is doing this thing where it's kind of paying homage to people who have died in the book and the Jerry Conway is very touching and very cool.

01:03:27.682 --> 01:03:30.023
[SPEAKER_02]: that Mark was doing that, just want to quickly mention it.

01:03:30.643 --> 01:03:32.864
[SPEAKER_01]: It is, it's in a lot of the books that we've heard of.

01:03:34.325 --> 01:03:43.468
[SPEAKER_03]: And last but not least, Radiant Black, number 43 from Image Comics from By Kyle Higgins and Michael Busetil, art by Gianna Zifero.

01:03:44.308 --> 01:03:55.953
[SPEAKER_03]: Last issue, we got a big cliffhanger that our original Radiant Black Nathan was somehow back in a new hero costume helping out his friend Marshall, who is the current Radiant Black,

01:03:56.393 --> 01:04:04.922
[SPEAKER_03]: this issue we flashback in time picking up what he left Chicago to head to Los Angeles to follow through to the president day and loop back there.

01:04:05.643 --> 01:04:11.308
[SPEAKER_03]: And I got to say though I generally liked a lot of the stuff that was going on in this issue and there's definitely

01:04:12.129 --> 01:04:17.410
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not too into it too much, but there's definitely a lot of Kyle Higgins' experiences in Hollywood.

01:04:17.490 --> 01:04:18.930
[SPEAKER_03]: I think 100% going in there.

01:04:19.630 --> 01:04:31.772
[SPEAKER_03]: As Nathan gets hired to adapt ordinary gods, the series by Kyle Higgins, and I'm sure some of that stuff is like one to one with things that happened to Kyle Higgins, so that wrong really true.

01:04:31.992 --> 01:04:33.073
[SPEAKER_03]: Loved all of that stuff.

01:04:33.613 --> 01:04:38.534
[SPEAKER_03]: The part that I was a little confused about is the way that they explained how he became

01:04:41.813 --> 01:04:53.259
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and that's that's all things that was like times what wait, hold on There's You left it on a cliffhanger of like, whoa, what is this costume?

01:04:53.279 --> 01:04:54.139
[SPEAKER_03]: Where did this come from?

01:04:54.199 --> 01:04:54.960
[SPEAKER_03]: How do you get into it?

01:04:54.980 --> 01:04:57.021
[SPEAKER_03]: What does this power is and he just kind of has it?

01:04:57.161 --> 01:05:01.323
[SPEAKER_03]: And we yada yada yada through a lot of that part and I was very surprised by that.

01:05:01.643 --> 01:05:05.585
[SPEAKER_01]: I bet we'll get that explanation in the next issue when the two are

01:05:07.396 --> 01:05:14.260
[SPEAKER_01]: the two guys come together, the two original radiant blacks come together, but I, I, I thought this was great.

01:05:14.480 --> 01:05:16.602
[SPEAKER_01]: I really loved the divergence of it.

01:05:16.982 --> 01:05:18.563
[SPEAKER_01]: I liked the reality of it.

01:05:19.123 --> 01:05:27.608
[SPEAKER_01]: A lot of the things that we're being said in these Hollywood meetings are things I've heard, the pivot to vertical and all that shit is very fun and real.

01:05:28.369 --> 01:05:34.212
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think the analogy of him not being able to get his writing done because he's being a superhero,

01:05:34.804 --> 01:05:43.147
[SPEAKER_01]: feels like Kyle Higgins is like I couldn't get my screenplay then because I was writing comics and because Radiant Black was taking off so much in that in that time.

01:05:43.267 --> 01:05:51.330
[SPEAKER_01]: So I thought that was a cool analogy to really lay into this the overall continuity of his comic.

01:05:52.210 --> 01:05:58.172
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, this has been such an amazing juggernaut for 43 issues.

01:05:58.272 --> 01:06:02.313
[SPEAKER_02]: It's really impressive, artistically, and all the different stuff that's doing.

01:06:02.353 --> 01:06:05.314
[SPEAKER_02]: And Justin is a line producer in Hollywood.

01:06:05.354 --> 01:06:07.534
[SPEAKER_02]: So he knows what goes out of these meetings.

01:06:07.554 --> 01:06:08.034
[SPEAKER_02]: So to catch up with you.

01:06:08.054 --> 01:06:10.655
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're watching this video, you can tell I'm in Hollywood.

01:06:11.453 --> 01:06:11.653
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.

01:06:12.414 --> 01:06:17.418
[SPEAKER_03]: And the other thing, I mean, just to maybe you can speak to this a little bit, you mentioned pivot to vertical.

01:06:17.518 --> 01:06:20.380
[SPEAKER_03]: So the lines that you're producing, they used to be horizontal.

01:06:20.420 --> 01:06:23.622
[SPEAKER_03]: They used to go that way and now they have to go up and down instead of side to side.

01:06:23.782 --> 01:06:24.623
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, that's a joke.

01:06:24.643 --> 01:06:26.024
[SPEAKER_03]: But that's also true.

01:06:26.404 --> 01:06:27.685
[SPEAKER_01]: That's also true.

01:06:27.726 --> 01:06:38.073
[SPEAKER_01]: The most things are made are like, well, we got to make sure we shoot for the horizontal and the vertical because we got to be able to cut it up into clips for a Tik Tok and

01:06:40.195 --> 01:06:50.500
[SPEAKER_02]: that's the biz that's the point I should go out here and start looking at tomorrow's tic-tac wheels that is docked we were saying that's not what you're saying calling them tic-tac wheels is an old person thing
