[SPEAKER_02]: So we're going to finally look after them and do a San Diego Comic Con preview.
[SPEAKER_02]: Talk about what we're excited about when we're interested in what we're looking forward to in terms of panels and
[SPEAKER_02]: exclusive obviously not signings since we're there we'll talk a little bit about the con in general but I also want to open it up to questions from all of you I'd love to hear from you who are watching what you're looking forward to what you're interested in as we talk through stuff yes Pete I
[SPEAKER_01]: I would like to say what I'm looking forward to, and that's all the ins questions where I get to ask Justin about the amazing weekend he had.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: So the thing that you're looking forward to is getting past what we just said and not talking about that anymore.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: I am excited to talk about stuff with you guys.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love talking to both of you, Pete.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can just call me, also.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can ask me questions.
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to bother you, you know, it's like you go right from like raising your children
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I don't want to take away from your family time.
[SPEAKER_01]: You are a man on roller skates.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
[SPEAKER_03]: You're always my number one child.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're a question.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's funny because it's true.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, Justin, you're working at Fanatics Fest this weekend, and that's what Pete wants to ask you about.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, Pete has a lot of questions about the amount of athletes that I was right up next to during Fanatics Fest, which is like the San Diego Comic Con for, first sports, essentially, truly, the exact same vibes as Comic Con, but the just opposite type of people.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, this is probably actually a good warm-up.
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I heard that Ryan Reynolds was there talking about Deadpool cards.
[SPEAKER_02]: Did you get to see him at all?
[SPEAKER_03]: I did see him.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, he was on.
[SPEAKER_03]: I, uh, to answer.
[SPEAKER_03]: I, I worked on the festival.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was a writer for, um, some of the panels.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then I produce a writer for the panels.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're fake.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, no, you have to, there's segments.
[SPEAKER_03]: Some of them have like comedic segments that are often cut, but and like I'm doing a bunch of just like, is that the creative work for it?
[SPEAKER_03]: is that step down from line producer all you were going to do it's all steps down no it's a step up like he was just producing lines now creating a lot I'm pretty sure line producers all the way up here and then everything else whatever you think you're pretty sure about when it comes to line producer Peter think you're going to want to read the exam in that real quick but yes I did see Ryan Reynolds he did a a panel that wasn't on my stage where he had audience members draw Deadpool on giant cards
[SPEAKER_03]: Which I thought was a wild idea, but he was on my stage as part of the men and blazers world cup Final match so I did get to meet Ryan very briefly.
[SPEAKER_03]: He seems nice
[SPEAKER_02]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a good story.
[SPEAKER_02]: I do love how everybody took what he talked about at that deadpool panel Whether like oh, let's go on with a new deadpool movie and he's like yeah, I think we'll do one at some point and people are like new deadpool movie Come on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's happening.
[SPEAKER_02]: Here we go.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like that's he said this 15 times.
[SPEAKER_02]: What are we talking about here?
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, but something about when you're standing on a little stage, it makes it a little bit more intense.
[SPEAKER_03]: But also, at Fanatics Fest, maybe even more in the Comic Con, people just talk and say stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's no, there's much less PR and sort of message control, in my opinion, at Fanatic Fest and even Comic Con.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's also a slap.
[SPEAKER_01]: a slap who got slappy Tom Brady slap somebody got crazy an audience number no He technically is a number.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just Logan Paul the old man America's audience member He's he slapped Logan Paul.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's right for like Tom Brady
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, all right now, you know, I like Tom Brady sometimes in a fight there.
[SPEAKER_03]: You don't have to choose a winner He is witness.
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you have any other questions?
[SPEAKER_03]: You want to wrap it fire growth or some questions so you can just get it out of your system No, it sucks any of Comic Con Pete can ask about that Comic Con that Athlete Con later on
[SPEAKER_03]: Great.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, let's talk to you about Comic Con.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that is coming up as we're taping this as we're streaming this.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's on Tuesday.
[SPEAKER_02]: The preview night is Wednesday and officially starts Thursday goes through Sunday.
[SPEAKER_02]: The meat of the festival is really Thursday through Saturday when there's tons of big panels for DC and Marvel and all the other publishers as well as haul each for anybody doesn't know is the big 6,000 seat venue that's essentially at an enormous tent slash place outside.
[SPEAKER_02]: Inside it's bunch of stuff going on.
[SPEAKER_02]: it's the ultimate back room style liminal space pretty much yeah and so there's a lot of stuff going on and certainly there's a bunch of panels that I was curious about that I'm going to be you know checking in on to see
[SPEAKER_02]: what's going on when they're happening.
[SPEAKER_02]: That sort of thing, but let's probably talk about Comic Con before.
[SPEAKER_02]: We've all been a couple of times in varying capacities.
[SPEAKER_02]: We've done shoes there.
[SPEAKER_02]: We've done panels there, but we're not going this year, just to be clear about what's going on.
[SPEAKER_02]: So this is very much an outside perspective, but it was curious to hear if you guys, because there's all this talk about this.
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you think the cultural cache of San Diego Comic Con is right now?
[SPEAKER_02]: Where does it stand?
[SPEAKER_01]: Now,
[SPEAKER_01]: way before you get into it just I just want to uh... it's all been you're not going but you're sending your minions right you you're you're you're uh... you know you're underlings are going and reporting but i'm sending the minions i'm sending the minions work without as the most evil person currently alive i added minions are the minions i always like to think of myself as the do Hitler if you are well well
[SPEAKER_02]: What are you saying grew is a Hitler standing there's a whole thing about millions of people are like wait if they're always working for the most evil person why do they not work for Hitler the explanation is there frozen and working in an ice cave wild for the entirety of world war two is how it got beyond that yes to much millions lower
[SPEAKER_03]: A little back or no, a little Alex lore, Alex gets up very early to like work when his family's still sleeping, and I got to say Alex, you should sleep one more hour, and you ain't don't look at whatever that is.
[SPEAKER_03]: That sounds like a 435 AM rabbit hole, and I think you should sleep in that time.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you want to say something Justin about San Diego Capacot?
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, as San Diego Comic Con became the cultural flashpoint for basically everything, for I don't know, we could debate how many years, but decade, probably two decades, where all of, you know, first of his comic culture, and then as comic culture became pop culture, then pop culture became the, it was centered on San Diego where everything happened, but then everything else is like, we, that's what we should do.
[SPEAKER_03]: And now it's like, we're talking
[SPEAKER_03]: that's taken some cash over here like it started to disperse into all these other live events and I think it's made San Diego Comic-Con still a thing but there are so many things now so it's a little bit different and also there's less of everything right now in our entertainment culture anyway because of money or whatever
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it feels like it, there was a period in there where it felt like, uh-oh, is there going to be no more Comic Con has a completely lost it?
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think that came at the same time as like COVID and strikes and everything else.
[SPEAKER_02]: And people generally realize it like, one big thing this year is there's no entertainment weekly party for the first time.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't remember if any of us went to it together, but that was like the swankiest, most star-studded thing they had it on a rooftop of the home.
[SPEAKER_02]: hard rock, I want to say it across the street from the convention center, and they're not doing that definitely feels like, oh, this does not have the same level of every celebrity in the world is in setting, go at the same time.
[SPEAKER_02]: But at the same time, they're still selling out the convention.
[SPEAKER_02]: tons of stuff going on there.
[SPEAKER_02]: There are big panels happening and it is a big stage to launch things But I think what people are realizing more than anything is like you were saying the predominance of geek culture This is not the only way of Getting at that and there are more efficient ways than showing 6,000 people in a haul age and giving the cash in like
[SPEAKER_02]: we were talking about I think cinema caught a couple of weeks back that used to be just for theater owners now it's press and influencers and everybody else people are understanding how to do influencer events love them or hate them but that's another way of getting that same sort of impact that you would normally get by flying
[SPEAKER_02]: all these stars out paying millions of dollars trying to arrange hotel deals etc etc etc and it's not quite a necessary but what I think that does do is from a fan perspective makes it as far as I've heard a better experience yes because you're actually doing what you want to do versus like waiting on in same lines like the last time I was there I didn't really have to wait on in a hall of apes line I mean I usually get the passes luckily through press stuff but there was
[SPEAKER_02]: and you just kind of mostly walk right in, like there's no sleeping out on the sidewalk anymore.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's good.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what it should be.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, and you don't have to, like, get through the AT&T, like, Wi-Fi activation contest, or whatever you're like, well, I don't even know what this is, because I do, is to get into the stuff that you're there for comic books, meeting other fans, talking to your favorite hours and creators who genuinely are there to meet you.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I do think, like, we're being, I feel, being, like, these guys are shooting on what Comic Con is now.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it's not, I think it's actually getting better because it's,
[SPEAKER_03]: as as what we love becomes a little bit more niche than it used to be, it returns to a place where we can all have access to it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And that's exciting.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I hear what you're saying.
[SPEAKER_01]: I do think that they kind of blow up of the con, birth to all these other con.
[SPEAKER_01]: So specific people could go for specific things.
[SPEAKER_01]: It wasn't this all encompassing thing, which is great because that means San Diego is less busy to get back to what it was about where it was like,
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't care if Ryan Rounds is going to be there.
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to meet my favorite writer or my favorite artist and, you know, concert great for artist Ali kind of moments like that and kind of running into these people.
[SPEAKER_01]: And also the fans who like the same thing that you do.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a great way to kind of interact.
[SPEAKER_03]: The other funny thing is, I just about the money side of it and the business side, like Comic Con was always like every corporation or studios way, like here's how we get to the young people.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then I think something they've learned perhaps in the movie box office returns in the last couple years is like,
[SPEAKER_03]: Young people don't see these movies anymore, like they've moved on.
[SPEAKER_03]: So as soon as the 60 to 80-year-old people who run everything, money, things, it finally gets into their gray ass skulls that young people aren't doing comic-on anymore, then it shifts to whatever the horror con that I'm sure will pop up and start to flourish now.
[SPEAKER_03]: as things like backrooms and obsessions start to grab the conch of pop culture.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I don't know the audience statistics necessarily, but I think the bigger one at this point is it's CCXP and Brazil because the Brazilian fans are complementary.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's saved.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like over the top, those that is where you're going to find that young fan base who is crazy and very online about the stuff in a very different way from San Diego, Comic Con.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's also like this very debated, but New York Comic-Con technically has more tickets sold at this point that said to you Comic-Con, which I do think has changed that cachet there a little bit.
[SPEAKER_02]: The caveat, the asterisk, as always, is that said to you Comic-Con is not confined to the said to you convention center.
[SPEAKER_02]: It takes over
[SPEAKER_02]: all of the gas lamp district outside all of the neighboring hotels absolutely everything so there's a lot of things you can do at San Diego Comic-Con even without a pass versus New York it's all in the javit center and then otherwise there's New York City there so
[SPEAKER_02]: In any case, okay, we firmly established how San Diego Capacotta is doing, I think.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Why don't we talk about some specifics?
[SPEAKER_02]: What you were excited about.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've got a list of panels.
[SPEAKER_02]: I could certainly go through, get some thoughts on.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I think if anything before we get to any specific stuff, we should probably talk about the big one for our particular preview, which is Saturday night, Hall H is the Marvel panel.
[SPEAKER_02]: Marvel is returning to Hall H.
[SPEAKER_02]: that's a signature panel of the Comic Con for the entire time.
[SPEAKER_02]: The MCU has been around.
[SPEAKER_02]: They went away for a couple of years.
[SPEAKER_02]: They came back to reveal that Robert Daddy Jr. is Dr. Doom, much of the confusion of absolutely everybody.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so there's a lot of pressure going into this one, particularly because we don't know what they're going to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: Sometimes they've announced previously like
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, we're going to have the deadpool and Wolverine cast, but it's actually something else entirely.
[SPEAKER_02]: This time, I don't think we really know, and there's a couple of possibilities, but similarly, I'm curious to hear from you guys, like we've spent so much time talking about the place that Marvel is in and the MCU is in.
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you think the pressure is like going into this panel and what do you expect coming out to it and what would actually get you hyped coming out of this panel?
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I think maybe they dropped the, you know, doom trailer before this just to get a time check to see if people will be losing their minds because maybe they're playing things.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it's everybody's mid.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're like, ow, that's not good.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, not do that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they can't do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're going to cancel it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, I think maybe that's a bozi predict.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I think maybe they'll instead of playing the trailer we've all seen, maybe play a clip or, you know, I think maybe have some cast there for sure.
[SPEAKER_03]: I agree with that.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would love the twist to be that we get the Spider-Man cast.
[SPEAKER_02]: and get, well the trick that is that would be a Sony panel not a Disney Marvel panel.
[SPEAKER_02]: So we're unless one of them surprised stops by for something.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're almost definitely not going to get any Spider-Man stuff there.
[SPEAKER_02]: Here will be a Tom Swangen.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tom, Tommy H, Tommy Hall H, the thing I have two predictions, one of them is more likely one of them less likely.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that they're holding, there was holding Robert Downey Junior as Doom, I think until late fall.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's going to be, I feel like they're last build up to the movie.
[SPEAKER_03]: But what they put on front street in this trailer is the X-Men.
[SPEAKER_03]: So, I predict we're gonna, the likelyest prediction is an X-Men focused panel.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe we get Ryan Reynolds.
[SPEAKER_03]: If I were them, I would try to get ahead of the fact that Ryan Reynolds already roasted all the Fox X-Men stuff in Deadpool.
[SPEAKER_03]: And now they're actually like, oh wait, we're actually gonna do it straight-faced for a dude's day.
[SPEAKER_03]: I would try to get ahead of that with some Ryan Reynolds X-Men stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: The less likely but more exciting thing is if they were pre-learning a lesson from DC and clayface and they actually greenlit the Mahershla Ali blade movie and that was announced to not actually happening at all age you can't do that I mean you saw a Deadpool Wolverine blades the only blade he said it I'm screened
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, man, you're in it.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're deep there.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's exciting.
[SPEAKER_02]: I definitely think we got to get doomsday stuff for sure I think the most likely possibility.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know about them holding back R. D. J.
[SPEAKER_02]: The Wanderer's temperature coming from I think like
[SPEAKER_02]: We definitely get some sort of dubs day cast photo op.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think they could have 60 people on stage, but they're going to try to get close because maybe it's just the chairs.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But just if the chairs show up on the people on these mindset, that'd be great.
[SPEAKER_02]: I love those chairs.
[SPEAKER_01]: What if they're about cotton candy to everybody and said, ladies and gentlemen, the chairs?
[SPEAKER_01]: And they lost their minds.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know why you don't run marketing for Marvel.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's crazy.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: Great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Can they one reason line?
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you think I like the idea of the X-Men cast coming out and doing something here?
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you think they have the X-Men cast come out?
[SPEAKER_02]: They talk about Doomsday and that we have a surprise, patch the torch moment to the new cast of X-Men?
[SPEAKER_03]: But I don't you think that's in this movie.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like that's see.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think it's in this movie But I do think they need to start shooting or getting into a new X bed You mentioned that in the panel and I air in our our trailer breakdown and you're right But that that to me that gets us ahead of this movie in a bad way for the movie If I would then I'd have to hold the new X mental after doomsday like until January
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, all right, what do you think what about what I've been thinking about this, okay?
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody gets free sloppy Joe's and then Charles Xavier comes out in his wheelchair and then stands up and walks.
[SPEAKER_01]: What?
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I thought you were going to say things.
[SPEAKER_01]: Slopping Joe who's not this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Slopping Joe.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, he could walk and sing that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Patrick's a very talented actor.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he's wonderful.
[SPEAKER_02]: I could see, so potentially the X-Men thing, I do think we're going to get some sort of like, Kevin Feige loves doing some sort of one more thing, things like Steve Jobs, which was Robert Tattie Jr.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought was Columbo.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he's got one of these places.
[SPEAKER_02]: One person in Hawaii, which is going to be murdered, and he's going to solve that murder, really.
[SPEAKER_01]: I have what they call it, that one they call it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I saw somebody today suggest that since they've already talked about Black Panther 3, they could bring out Denzel who we know is gonna be in the lead.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, that would be cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: But isn't the one more thing they need most right now is one new thing?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, like absolutely.
[SPEAKER_03]: And their schedules wide open, but I feel like there's, say, a lot of push to put more on this schedule.
[SPEAKER_02]: I agree with you.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, when we get to the hype thing, even introducing the new X-Men cast, it'd be like, okay, great.
[SPEAKER_02]: Good.
[SPEAKER_02]: You were going to do that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm glad to you see it.
[SPEAKER_02]: It needs to be something that comes out of nowhere that gets people excited again.
[SPEAKER_01]: And so free jelly beans for everybody and then new X-Men cast.
[SPEAKER_01]: I love it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Pizza Hungry Congolary.
[SPEAKER_03]: the thing is though like what territory is un conquered for them from a character perspective that's why I feel like blade is my prediction because that's that's what people are known to want to end the deals done it's just they kind of make the movie yeah script I mean I'll throw out some stuff just like based on reporting that's come out because it's not going to be TV TV won't do it
[SPEAKER_02]: This also would not hype people up, but we were talking about this at the Patriot Discord a little bit, Michael Waldron, who wrote Loki, and I'm forgetting if he did multiverse of madness, or I think he was supposed to do King Dynasty or something like that, he is working on Nova, a new take on Nova.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is drawing a lot of lives, but he co-created Chad Powers with Glenn Powell.
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like Glenn Powell is across the board, Nova.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's like, oh, like, and that's something that I could see them bring out that wouldn't be like, for me personally, but getting Glenn Powell who's a star on the rise would be a good thing and fun casting.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's cool, that isn't, well, are they willing to take the risk on a new area?
[SPEAKER_03]: I guess you're playing in Guardians territory and they could do that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Channel 19 says, Devil Dinosaurs comes out of the station, but we'll see.
[SPEAKER_02]: The real, the real, the real one.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that's right.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he gives them a cheesy popcorn.
[SPEAKER_02]: Cheddar.
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe some caramel, too.
[SPEAKER_03]: That feels very old MCU, yes, and maybe that's where they are, maybe they're back there, and they've never left there Can I throw out the game?
[SPEAKER_01]: It's old time me to give people a tin with full caramel and cheesy popcorn Yeah, is that Chicago style is that what that's called?
[SPEAKER_02]: Carmel and cheese get disgusting my wife is the best.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's called Chicago mix I could be wrong.
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll find out at the panel.
[SPEAKER_02]: The Look through our fair you Justin.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let me tell you the worst possibility.
[SPEAKER_02]: The absolute worst like we're stuck in 2019 Marvel announced but they could make is secret wars part two
[SPEAKER_02]: That would be a third movie.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what he's been bouncing around for a while.
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like financially it's impossible, probably.
[SPEAKER_02]: But like they haven't started shooting secret wars yet, which is crazy.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's putting all your eggs in one basket and putting then that basket in another basket.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's what they're doing.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is good.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a good idea.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, it makes me think of Star Wars Starfighter and like that to me is such that was such an exciting announcement that's an exciting move.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't wait for that movie.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: What is Marvel's version of that that they could do?
[SPEAKER_03]: And Glenn Powell is Nova is that, but we know as kind of the fans that Nova is not light in the world on fire as a character.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: What if I feel like I saw this the other day and this is probably a entirely baseless
[SPEAKER_02]: rumor, but what if they were like, we, Sony gave us Spider-Man, like we have Spider-Man, Disney, and owns Spider-Man.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like that's, that's a cool announcement for the trades.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like everyone's going to be like, who, who, who, who owns him?
[SPEAKER_03]: I, I like him.
[SPEAKER_03]: The movie's coming out soon.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like,
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what the announcement Marvel could be that would get back everybody back on their side suddenly.
[SPEAKER_03]: What about like Nolan on the Marvel movie?
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, Christopher Nolan.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought you're talking about.
[SPEAKER_01]: What if they brought back Choco tacos?
[SPEAKER_01]: That will be pretty amazing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Choco tacos?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're hungry now, dude.
[SPEAKER_03]: What's happening with it?
[SPEAKER_02]: What if Marvel's like, oh, what more thing?
[SPEAKER_02]: We brought back those caddy cigarettes that make the little puff.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Everyone would lose it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love that candy.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the smoking equivalent of eating the gum and baseball card bags.
[SPEAKER_01]: I was going to say eating the stick and fun dip.
[SPEAKER_01]: What you do?
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah, everybody does.
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you ever when you run out of fun dip sticks because I imagine you eat those first?
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you use a regular sticker?
[SPEAKER_01]: What do you do, Pete?
[SPEAKER_01]: No, you just use your figure.
[SPEAKER_01]: You just got to be careful.
[SPEAKER_03]: Do you use your figure?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you can.
[SPEAKER_03]: You might even turn to the boat.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he also says which he's joking about but I almost legit brought up he said okay What about Venom and I also don't think so he's gonna give up Venom, but I do think that would be like a What it's just what what what and do what what's different in our lives The Marvel has spider-man or venom or any of these side little motherfuckers nothing I just think about like in fact that's all what impact is an impactless announcement
[SPEAKER_02]: nothing.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like you want to spend a hundred dollar bill on the ground.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, but like trying to came out all the stuff like if they announced a young Avengers though film, I would be very happy about that because I like everybody the young Avengers, but also would be like, thank you, finally you're doing this by reaction or not be like uttered Lee.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and how do they make them will be different than Thunderbolts?
[SPEAKER_02]: A young Avengers?
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they're younger for one.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, but the vibe is the same.
[SPEAKER_03]: Very similar.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I would be excited about that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just feel like they're so hamstrung by Doomsday and Seeker Wars being so far apart.
[SPEAKER_03]: And they're not doing the model of having the stepping stones in between that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just don't know what they're going to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: The, it's way too much.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's way too much.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're going to have a candy dish on the panel if you like hey if anyone's a peppermint You do the announcement I like the idea of jelly beans and every time somebody gives a good answer It just pops one of them out.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's good, but fight you with charge you for them.
[SPEAKER_03]: Unfortunately It's like a cash bar to wedding.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, check out these jelly beans.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're in infinity vision
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, anything else about the Marvel panel if you're like, we've exhausted that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would like to talk about panels.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm looking forward to.
[SPEAKER_01]: OK, great.
[SPEAKER_01]: Pete, take it away.
[SPEAKER_01]: What are you looking for, Jim Lee and friends?
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd love to check that out.
[SPEAKER_01]: See what goes, maybe bring up Justin.
[SPEAKER_01]: See if he remembers Justin, that would be fun.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm his friend.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I will say that was one of the first things that I have on my list.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's happening on the Thursday right off.
[SPEAKER_02]: That is a great panel.
[SPEAKER_02]: because the whole idea of that panel, he's done it at your Comic-Con and said, he ain't go, is you don't know who's on the panel, you just know that they know Jim Lee.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so you don't actually know until they, he brings them out and then chats with him, and this is at New York Comic-Con, he brought out like, I'm like, other than the guy, the guy who created Mortal Kombat, he brought about to be like,
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, we're going to have Scorpion and a comic for the first time and then later he brought out Scott Snyder to announce DCK boss battle The thing where they're bringing home land here in Red Sonia and Vampirella They brought on a Freddie Stroma and this was right after the peacemakers season two finale So very fun.
[SPEAKER_02]: It like some of the interviews were consumptoate, but Jim leaves like I don't know
[SPEAKER_02]: I will just do this in secret.
[SPEAKER_01]: I remember I think it was a New York con where he planted like secret Jim Lee drawings all throughout the con.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, it was like a scavenger how people were going on.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's cool Yeah, that's like that's what's what I like about when he's kind of you see his name is there's gonna be some fun stuff There's gonna be some cool surprises He truly is the king of San Diego for now until he's deposed by the next king
[SPEAKER_02]: Are you following this?
[SPEAKER_02]: You're going to make sure that the match is Ed Boone.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the guy you created and what'll count that?
[SPEAKER_02]: That is correct.
[SPEAKER_02]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: What else are you looking for?
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I would definitely bring my tent because I'd love to see what Dennis camp and friends would be talking about.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll be camping out on this camp.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll be camping out.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's going to be on the Friday.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if anybody listen to this is going to be like, oh, this is my god to set a year ago, but I'll mention the rooms anyway.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've room 23 ABC.
[SPEAKER_02]: And this does not need.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's Scott Snyder having discussion with Dennis Cap, Stip and Morian, who is on bleeding hearts with him right now.
[SPEAKER_02]: and Erick Zawadsky is on him with assorted crisis events and I agree that's really cool like those are the sort of panels that I almost never get to go to add a Comic Con because of yeah busy doing work stuff but whatever I said I don't like it's great there's just people having it.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is what I want because that conversation is Scott wants to talk to those people yeah that's going to be so fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: Scott's guys decided
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, and they're gonna, I bet they'll have a book to announce or something that's gonna be so dope.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, that's, like, the thing that's great about that thing is it is much less about, like, we are building this around a series of announcements and things we're showing you that you could just get on line 15 minutes from now.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a conversation.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's talking about the craft and geeky out about this stuff, which is what should be.
[SPEAKER_02]: JT is the top campus.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I was just going to say the, um, yeah, if you would've just said to me like, uh, the title of this is things Scott is excited about.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would show up because that guy can talk and he can get people and first stop seeing like when he's kind of talking about his passion and things that light him up, it, you know, it's energizing and it's fun to be around.
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's energon.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's entering, and it's dancing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Great transition because by next panel, that I would say is the other John universe because, you know, that's been blowing up as we know.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hear there are actually going to be giving out nostalgia baths right in person.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's ripped down.
[SPEAKER_03]: and then Kirkman, and everyone's just thinking about all the chairs they put in bathtubs.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you took a nostalgia bath in Edder John, would that melt you or would you become full in your tummy?
[SPEAKER_02]: Which, how does that work?
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it would kind of melt me just except for where my shorts are like a Hulk situation.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, it's interesting.
[SPEAKER_03]: Why just the shorts?
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a famous thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, because Edder John does not eat your shorts.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's right, exactly.
[SPEAKER_02]: This panel, oh, I did actually forget to write down the room for this one.
[SPEAKER_02]: So immediately destroy what I was saying, but it is going to have Robert Kirkman Joshua released on our Hughes Sean McWitz Yeah, and this is the opposite of what I was saying like at least based on going to previous enter job battles
[SPEAKER_02]: is they're all geeking out and they all enjoy this but it's very geared around like years and update on what's going on with mask this is what's happened to transform is this is g i j o the definitely be talking about rom who just joined the enter john universe and they announced today that the blind bags that they had with mask number one that surprise had rom
[SPEAKER_02]: a whole issue of ramen if they're going to be releasing end of August, so maybe we'll give that out or something.
[SPEAKER_03]: And that was really, let me just, let's give a little credit to that as a trick, as a gimmick.
[SPEAKER_03]: That was cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: I, I want to give, I feel like that we saw that unfolding in our discord, and that was really dope.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I talked to you guys from cover price for our podcast.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it went up yesterday, I'm losing all track of time, but great conversation with them really interesting.
[SPEAKER_02]: You guys can listen to the feed, but we were talking about the blind bag thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think Skybound is the only ones that are absolutely down again, because they're actually giving you like,
[SPEAKER_01]: that surprise in there it isn't just like oh I got a nice cover of the same comic it's you don't know what is going to be at those bags and that's cool yeah that's the blind bag of it all but yeah speaking of like just kind of doing a rundown of announcements and giving you excited about what's coming up out the DC absolute universe would also be a panel of that I would be pumped to see
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and that one has all the folks that you'd expect that's going to be on the Saturday.
[SPEAKER_02]: You got Scott Snyder, Nick Jagoda, he had in Sherman, Jeff LeMier, Chey Grayson, Pornseck, Pisa Shoot, Raphael Albuquerque, and others.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's just...
[SPEAKER_01]: That's an all start line up and yeah, I would just they've been killing it.
[SPEAKER_01]: The absolute universe is such an excited thing every time I see that on the pull is every time I get to crack open an absolute book.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a great feeling.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it'll be fun to see them talk about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I am a little surprised.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if he's there at the corner not put up surprise Jason Aaron isn't on that panel because I'd expect they're going to be talking about the absolute crossover event that's happening in the fall, which we know he's writing.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I don't know, I'm sure we'll get some news about that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I will say it's interesting to me and there's been a little bit of ink spilled about the lack of the DC Studios work at this Comic Con.
[SPEAKER_03]: Especially coming off the heels of Supergirl to not have something there like good as you're getting his height for clay face Yeah, and like I don't I don't know our lands aren't expensive.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think like why didn't they have one
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they have there's one of their lanterns and I'm sorry for that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that's gonna be haul h on Friday And I agree with you as looking through the line up for this It's carrot Kyle Chandler Aaron Pierre Garrett Dillahunt Porta Jaganathan and co-creators Chris Mundi David Lindeloff and CAI Warcrime Committer Tom King.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm putting there just comes up at our discord a lot for some reason
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, they're all going to be there.
[SPEAKER_02]: I kind of expected it to be like lanterns and surprise guests and like we have James gun there It's not to do some other stuff, but yeah, maybe yeah, but it's just lanterns.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's just gonna be lanterns I think it's at HBO panel not in maybe Ryan Brown's is gonna show up and make fun of it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think they want that in the plan, but I am excited for the lanterns panel because I keep thinking that comes on the fall, it does not.
[SPEAKER_03]: It comes out in less than a month.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's exciting.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, but I wish they had a panel to sort of reignite the excitement in DC Studios because that's what everybody needs right.
[SPEAKER_02]: I wonder I don't remember when Clayface comes out.
[SPEAKER_02]: I wonder if the October I think.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's October, but I was gonna say as I wonder if the
[SPEAKER_02]: They're saving the clay face panel for New York Comic Con so that these all time out like lanterns coming up next month clay face around the same time as New York Comic Con which is October 8th through 11th so yeah, we can't have that Your calendars we can't have like that I'd be James gun is shooting man of tomorrow so yeah, they may just be busy
[SPEAKER_03]: doing that stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to hype up the Gotham City panel.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like the bat universe specifically Matt Fraction's Batman book has been so exciting.
[SPEAKER_03]: What's going on with detective comics?
[SPEAKER_03]: I just feel like the bat universe is doing really well right now, so I'm excited to hear what's going to come out of that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and that is also on the Saturday, I think.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, and it's G. Will Abelson, Matt Fraction, Tom.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's the right one.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, Friday.
[SPEAKER_02]: Christopher Campwell, Scott Snyder, Ed others.
[SPEAKER_02]: So presumably we'll talk about the bad seeds crossover.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, anything else just at nerf?
[SPEAKER_03]: That's it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, yeah, I mean midnight universe.
[SPEAKER_02]: You like them and we haven't really talked about the Marvel panels yet.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't really love big on Marvel quite a bit, but one thing we didn't discuss here on the show since it happened between last week's show and this show is an enormous enormous shake up at Marvel Pete.
[SPEAKER_02]: I assume this is going to be used to you.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'll break the news to you now.
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't say, Jordan, why it's still got a job, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't
[SPEAKER_02]: Two things are going down.
[SPEAKER_02]: The first thing that's going down is CB Discibelski, the current editor and chief of Marvel is stepping down, he's moving back to his native Japan and being taken, the position is being taken over by Steve Wacker.
[SPEAKER_02]: Whoa!
[SPEAKER_02]: That's Steve Wacker.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah, we know Steve Wacker.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is great news.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Steve Wacker is a great editor, a funny guy, a nice guy, loves comics.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, so I don't know, all things about CBX side.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think Steve Wacker as EIC makes so much sense.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's going to be very enjoyable.
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess I'll tell you when you would say Jordan D. White was stepping in.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, the second part is that as part of that announcement, they announced that Marvel is moving from New York to Burbank.
[SPEAKER_02]: And all the staffers over the next year are going to have decide whether they want to move to California.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's why I went D.C. Yep.
[SPEAKER_01]: D.C. did that same exact thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's really hard.
[SPEAKER_02]: We have a lot of friends at Marvel.
[SPEAKER_02]: My heart really goes out to them because that is...
[SPEAKER_02]: particularly if you have a family, but even if you don't, even if you're just a single living reporter for a bit of a love to York, it's a really hard thing to do to operate your life for your job.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, working comics were a motley.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, could you still be on?
[SPEAKER_01]: not at the higher levels, they want to.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, they don't have the bullpen.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not like there's anchors in everything about any of the office or anything like that.
[SPEAKER_02]: But the whole idea of this is, and this is me reading behind between lines like very slightly, is they have a new, pretty exact title, but like a new general manager or VP of something who took over from David Gabriel.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm getting everybody's day brawn.
[SPEAKER_02]: And Dan Buckley, who is pretty much the president of the whole company, also left.
[SPEAKER_02]: So now this guy who is all the West Coast and Brad Winderbaum, who has moved up from just being a charge of TV animation, is now in charge of all creative, including Marvel comics, is also on the West Coast.
[SPEAKER_02]: So of course, if they're going to move everything under them, so they could be in the same exact places everybody else.
[SPEAKER_03]: Plus they, I mean, you know, there's opportunity there for people if you do commit to the move, that means you're, if you are, if you excel, they're going to be like, okay, you're going to be an animation now, do you want to work over here like it, they're lining up all their business so they can accelerate the big.
[SPEAKER_03]: creative into different positions, which is cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: If that's what you want to do, not cool if you want to still live in the greatest city in the world.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's tough for New York City because it's like they lost DC Comics, now they're losing marble comics, it's kind of heartbreaking.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, especially, I feel like you must understand when Pete Incorporated for student movement depends on the Indian people.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that was rough, man.
[SPEAKER_01]: That was rough.
[SPEAKER_01]: My favorite corporation is Pete Incorporated.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: It sucks from a tradition level as well with the comics.
[SPEAKER_02]: They've been there.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's intrinsically tied with the York City.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Do you feel like now Spider-Man's going to have to be at the everyone's going to be there?
[SPEAKER_01]: They're going to be like, yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've seen a lot of jokes about like West Coast Avengers is now just a ventures But I brought this up now because reading over the Marvin's I couldn't get past these two pieces of news and like obviously this is a bit of the panels really far in advance But like the Marvel Midnight panel is Basically I'm scatting for it and I won't didn't find it to be down below at the bottom
[SPEAKER_02]: uh... isn't it basically like find out about the big night universe yes period light on the don't ask the questions about the mood it's going to be this is going to be such a weird convention for every single person at marvel they usually do key you and a their panels and i don't know what that's going to be like uh... well it's weird there's also because it wasn't it the thing that marvel got the fewest number of eyes and there's ever in their history as nernoms in their history
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, people are saying it in the comments here.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like Marvel's struggling right now from a creative point of view, comics or MCU, like across the board, there's a creative struggle here.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't know, this is probably a larger conversation we should get into because it's hard to pinpoint what the issue is, really, why aren't, there's still books in Marvel and Marvel that we love right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: But the swap over the pendulum swing from Marvel being dominant to DC just
[SPEAKER_02]: is breathtaking I feel like yeah I do wonder in terms of the con how this is going to play out I don't know about San Diego but I feel like I mean pretty much every con there's usually like a cup of C.B.
[SPEAKER_02]: panel where he talks about stuff and there's not that year as far as I've seen
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, so they had to have known this was coming for a while, but I do wonder if like Steve Wacker comes out at one of these panels, like the next Marvel-dex big thing panel, or something like that, to be like, here we go.
[SPEAKER_02]: Here's the vision going forward.
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe that's a little pre-active, but seems like time to do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: i mean i agree and i hope so because he like you said he's great he's really funny i think he brings juice he brings energy to a place that needs it and i feel like that's why they made that very clear choice to bring in someone who is
[SPEAKER_03]: you know he has a little bit of stand lean and he sort of always has that like performative person and the fact that he's made his career in the office for the last decade is the I think he's ready
[SPEAKER_02]: we got this thing here just to sort of wrap up this part of a dad of dash says hopefully they will be able to track enough more quality folks with Wacker in charge money and I do think so I mean Wacker worked at DC for a really long time this is not slagging off at all anybody who is currently working at Marvel but
[SPEAKER_02]: One of C.B.'
[SPEAKER_02]: 's talents was he was a talent scout.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like that's what he had to do, how to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then he was in this role, we're at to oversee a lot of things.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if that changed things or whatever, but like Steve Wacker, knows how to do editorial, those how to do creative, knows how to find talent to all of those things.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he's like, we're talking about a really friendly guy.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I think even if it's taking the into-house stable and being like,
[SPEAKER_02]: Now, don't do that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Do this.
[SPEAKER_02]: They could stand.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what you need an editor to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: There was a story that Gales Simone posted on Facebook right after the announcement happened, where she was talking about working with him on, I think it was secret six, or I guess it was villains United at that point, where she wrote an entire final issue.
[SPEAKER_02]: He was the editor on it, and he looked at it, it's like,
[SPEAKER_02]: This is just like a siege on their base.
[SPEAKER_02]: We've seen that a million times.
[SPEAKER_02]: You can do better.
[SPEAKER_02]: And she was like, I felt awful because I had written this entire issue.
[SPEAKER_02]: But also he was right.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it was the right note.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the final issue was better because of that.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you need somebody who could be able to do that.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think that's what he can bring to this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, also saying that to Gelsmolum, and she's an amazing writer.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what your job is, isn't editor.
[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_02]: Any other panels you want to call John Chester, otherwise I'll very quickly go through a couple of them.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you're, I mean, I'm excited for all of them technically.
[SPEAKER_01]: But mainly, if I was going, I'd be hanging out in the artist's alley, because that's me, I'm sure.
[SPEAKER_02]: A couple of things, first of all, I mentioned that I am not excited for, and I think people should avoid with prejudice, is Stanley, the final chapter exclusive documentary screening.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a documentary coming for this guy who hung out with Stanley at his final days, and was like, everybody was abusing him, and I filmed it, but I didn't feel comfortable speaking up.
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, here's my documentary.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's fucked up man, so please don't close you that even for a like to bucket just don't see it on Friday.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a couple of things that I'm interested yes Pete.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, we're sitting on stuff and don't use expedient a fuck me over and I'm pissed about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh boy.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, we can get it to that later in our section.
[SPEAKER_02]: I like to call what's going on with expedient.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'd like to hear how you can connect that to this conversation, Pete, and like don't do it right away, take your time.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, he said he was like, hey, fuck this documentary, and I'm like, oh, why were saying don't you say this or don't do that?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I feel like that's the kind of thing you're going to, you save that for your podcast where you sit on your porch and yell stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: Or I guess you're not recording it yet, but it's almost a podcast.
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, so couple of TV podcasts that throw out on Friday.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's the Dead City season three panel is happening.
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, mostly I'm just curious if they're going to say anything about the future of the walkie dead because it's definitely physically out.
[SPEAKER_02]: The other.
[SPEAKER_03]: Are you still watching Dead City and do you still like it?
[SPEAKER_02]: So I will say nobody passes along.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's between all of us.
[SPEAKER_02]: The review embargo is not up for a couple of hours.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've seen all of Dead City season three and I actually,
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't get it like I was really It's the one I thought and I have I've only watched a couple episodes here and there It's the one I'm like this is cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a good idea It's the way it should be going Fizzled out in season two, but they got it back on track.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's crazy They're showing off the premiere, which is objectively the worst episode But lately I want to know I want to see if said he news comes out about like
[SPEAKER_02]: This is it.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're wrapping up the walk-in dead or alternatively here is this other thing that's coming afterwards because it's very much like in a weird place right now Similarly, right after that is the vampire list dot panel.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know that you want to but this is Alex's shit.
[SPEAKER_02]: So good that show and they haven't announced Fourth season of the series.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure they are and I'm sure they're going to do it at the panel.
[SPEAKER_02]: I also think they're going to announce it is Queen of the Damned and that is something I'm going to like lose my mind over
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz
[SPEAKER_02]: That's it, we start doing this.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, Stratory Worlds is coming out this week.
[SPEAKER_02]: They've got another season of Starfleet Academy, but it's like...
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, the comics have been awesome.
[SPEAKER_03]: Dead in the water.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like the Star Trek universe.
[SPEAKER_02]: I agree.
[SPEAKER_02]: I, it is sad.
[SPEAKER_02]: That is followed up by Apple TV's first panel.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think, I'm excited about this panel.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a weird panel.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is, they're having dark matter, which is sci-fi show.
[SPEAKER_02]: Widow's bay, silo, and then two movies, bay day.
[SPEAKER_02]: which is Kenneth Brata and your boy Ryan Reynolds in a 1980s Soviet spy company, but it comes from John Francis Dally and the other guy.
[SPEAKER_02]: The guys who did Dungeons & Dragons honor my few years in Gabe night and everything.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then this movie is wild, I'm excited about it though.
[SPEAKER_02]: I am too.
[SPEAKER_02]: The trailer, I was like, oh, this is a cross-the-board 80s comedy, but there every movie they've done so far has been so funny that I'm very excited about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: The thing that's even weirder Pete, I don't know if you know about this, part of the panel is Matchbox the movie, which is based on Matchbox cars, and it starts John Cena as a Matchbox car driver.
[SPEAKER_02]: Ha ha ha ha.
[SPEAKER_02]: Come home.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, what were you going to say I cut you off Justin?
[SPEAKER_03]: I was going to say it feels like is it spies like us?
[SPEAKER_02]: It this feels like 100% spies.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's crazy.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's crazy.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean it's a funny.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, uh, curious to see what comes out of that back to the comic stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: Ballroom 20 on Saturday.
[SPEAKER_02]: You got Kirkman McFarlane life-filled Sylvestery Stevenson image comics legends together on one stage.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't, that panel has got to be 50 hours long, but you put one of those guys on stage that they talk forever, but I guess we'll leave.
[SPEAKER_03]: What are they going to say?
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: Image Covix, it's cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: And any Lord of the Rings panels, yes, there is a Rings of Power panel.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry, Stabley.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't particularly care about that show, so I didn't write it down, but it is happening.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's paired with some other prime video thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't remember what.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I guess it's too early to do the other Lord of the Rings stuff that's been in the news.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah, none of the Lord of the Rings movies just rings a power.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a carry panel that's going to be happening for the new show that Mike Flanagan is doing, which seems very interesting, so curious to see if a trailer or something comes out of that, that cast is great.
[SPEAKER_02]: Their OUNI is going to have an Archie Comics 85th anniversary celebration, which it's crazy to me that OUNI press is the one having the Archie Comics 85th anniversary celebration panel at San Diego and not Archie Comics.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but those titles look great.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm very excited about that.
[SPEAKER_02]: We talked to the team from Archie, and this is that podcast and Pete and I talked to Granabekko about Sabrina the teenage witch.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's the way out.
[SPEAKER_02]: Later this week on the podcast as well.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's all fun stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then yeah, it's mostly comic book panels.
[SPEAKER_02]: After that, leading up to the Eisner awards at the end of the evening.
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, I'm excited.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, excited to see you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Always fun.
[SPEAKER_02]: It is.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right.
[SPEAKER_02]: Anything else about Sandy or Comic Con before we wrap that up?
[SPEAKER_01]: They need to get better food.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think we can all attempt to move.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just not.
[SPEAKER_03]: We should go back.
[SPEAKER_03]: We haven't been as a group or even individually.
[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like in a few years.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: We should go.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's very expensive.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's spend all of our money out of Sandy or Comic Con.
[SPEAKER_03]: next year in San Diego as we'd use like to say at fanatics fest I connected with our guy Lance who used to run New York on and there's a lot of reminiscing about our time
[SPEAKER_03]: run around New York Comic-Con and must be doing interviewing Lance.
[SPEAKER_03]: He's great.
[SPEAKER_03]: He like his high-up at fanatics and crushes it.
[SPEAKER_02]: And we will definitely be at New York Comic-Con or at least some of us will for sure.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think we've kind of transitioned into your audience questions here because people are dropping general questions now also about panel stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you got questions, just throw them at us.
[SPEAKER_02]: It doesn't just have to be about San Diego, Comic Con.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I will say Stanley said any dune panels, and I believe no, actually.
[SPEAKER_02]: So there you go.
[SPEAKER_01]: Did you just turn that off, Pete?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I thought I'd put it on, and I thought I'd took it away.
[SPEAKER_01]: Nope, I put it on and you took it away.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: We've all figured it out.
[SPEAKER_02]: This show is well produced.
[SPEAKER_02]: uh... friend to street says i don't know if you guys talked about it but do you think that of city sink i'll just put a spoiler ordered for anybody listening is that jean gray will the backlash be the fans fault or the studios the first by the man brand new day and i was honestly thinking about this morning like by reaction or the reaction in a screening seeing that if people we get there and she's like i'm
[SPEAKER_02]: Rachel suburbs or whatever and I feel like there will be fat black lash against that and that is not fair I mean, where where did this room come from?
[SPEAKER_03]: I have not traced back the source
[SPEAKER_03]: And if they need to put a stop to it, if it's not, if she's not Jean Grey, everyone's going to be weirded out.
[SPEAKER_03]: And if it, she is Jean Grey, then I don't know what they're doing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because why is it happening in the Sony movie when their whole plan was to introduce the X-Men the way they did this week in the doomsday trailer?
[SPEAKER_03]: It's very weird if they go to a younger cast of X-Men the same time they're hyping this movie up.
[SPEAKER_02]: I just don't like, I mean, you don't have to say everything about a movie, but I don't like this level of secrecy was something where it's so focused to the point that I started to see clips from the junket where presumably people have seen the movie at this point, journalists interviewing her and they're just still not allowed to talk about it, so they're like,
[SPEAKER_02]: What was it like when you found out about your character or how are you going to feel when people know what your character is?
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like this is a productive.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a good use of anybody's time.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, and like I see the Zenman says I already call that she's Mary Jane Watson, that's also weird like yeah, these are both we can't do like the multiverse stuff is now it's officially fucking enough like for a while I was like okay, let's play around and hear a cool and I think like I'm fine with what they're doing with doomsday because it feels we know the story at least a little bit
[SPEAKER_03]: But these one-offs where Sadie Sink is going to be something like that, I don't know, really throw it right.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's more a reaction against secrets than it is a reaction against Jean Grey or not.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what I was saying.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah, definitely.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I'm not even mad about any of that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just feel like what are you doing?
[SPEAKER_03]: None of this makes sense now.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, now it feels bad when I was excited.
[SPEAKER_02]: Here's the thing is I hope it works.
[SPEAKER_02]: I hope whatever it is.
[SPEAKER_02]: Of course that they've been holding works.
[SPEAKER_02]: The movie looks fun.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm excited about that movie.
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, it really could.
[SPEAKER_02]: That will be the one point that everybody will be talking about probably coming out of it.
[SPEAKER_02]: And potentially, that's a bummer, but I guess we'll see.
[SPEAKER_02]: Straight ball, it says Will Star Lord actually returned.
[SPEAKER_02]: Interesting.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, Chris Pratt is a huge star and he wants to do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't know if it's going to be doomsday or secret wars, but yes Well, you know, there's an announcement they could make if they did a star lord Series, that would hit I think It felt like they were doing what everybody hates Chris Pratt though.
[SPEAKER_03]: No only
[SPEAKER_03]: only people in our world that don't like it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody else likes him.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're not doing a lot of research on him, maybe.
[SPEAKER_03]: But that was where it was headed in the last the post credit scene of the last guardians, right?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Chris Brad series, a startler series and like that's that would be a smart move I think.
[SPEAKER_02]: uh... this from shiit clear what are some of your favorite individual con experiences that weren't about celebrities or cbc stuff great question that's nice uh... i can throw out there i'm sure i've talked about this here before but one of my favorite things is watching tv at cons with a crowd full of fans and this is the specific experience i've talked about but like
[SPEAKER_02]: I was covering a once upon a time panel for MTV and I hated that show, like actively hate watch that show, drove me up a wall, but watching an episode of once upon a time with two to three thousand once upon a time, fans all getting like screaming and we literally being like, when you say something sweet, like that's the best.
[SPEAKER_01]: I, that fills me with such a wonderful feeling.
[SPEAKER_01]: answer.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've had a bunch of stuff, but I think that like, you know, when you go year after year, you've got to get to see people kind of grow into roles, and you know, watching somebody who maybe starts off on a small table in the artist's alley kind of blow the fuck up is pretty magical because it's like, dude, I liked you before anybody knew who you were.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, that's a lot of people at this year.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to go deep.
[SPEAKER_03]: I didn't this is maybe something I haven't said before on the show.
[SPEAKER_03]: I doubt it.
[SPEAKER_03]: When I've said it all, maybe the first time I ever went to a Comic-Con was I want to say in Syracuse where I'm from Syracuse area.
[SPEAKER_03]: And we went to like a very tiny con.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I didn't know what it was and what was happening there.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I found a piece of, I think it was a cover, it was a cover to X-factor, an issue of X-factor, back when it was the original X-man on the team.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it was the original R, and it was, you know, $40 or something.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I had never seen original R before.
[SPEAKER_03]: and all the lines on it and I couldn't believe that I was holding the thing and I couldn't believe that how simple it was.
[SPEAKER_03]: you know I don't know what I I guess I hadn't really thought about I guess I thought they were paintings or something that size like just like kid brain but when I held out was like wow I'm close to this I'm actually very close to this thing that I love in a way that I had never been the I grew up in the country like where Pee lives now where I didn't have any an understanding of how the world worked I was lost I got running water I don't have just a well that I go
[SPEAKER_03]: It's uh, it just dump a buck on my head to shower like a old west cowboy But that was a real sort of window or door-opening moment for me and it was just at a random Syracusecom.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and then you spat on it, right?
[SPEAKER_03]: The art.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, 40 dollars.
[SPEAKER_03]: What do you crazy?
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm a kid Get a panker for them
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't want to mention I looked over at Instagram, but I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't usually do this over at Instagram But we do have a question there.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is from that boy crisp comics Says does Capulo get announced as joining the absolute universe team at San Diego Comic-Con Oh, wow, that's a that's a shot right there That dude that dude's jacked.
[SPEAKER_03]: I do it is super yoked.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: What is he work on though?
[SPEAKER_03]: You're saying he joins absolute Batman
[SPEAKER_02]: I think he does an issue right like he does an issue or two fill in something like that maybe certainly could They kid this I almost feel like this would be me due to an extra good But we know they're going to be doing a Joker arc at some point having Greg Capullo fill in on the Joker arc Where it like fully breaks Joe that's that's a cool idea.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's a cool idea.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry, just a quote on my story.
[SPEAKER_03]: I did by the art.
[SPEAKER_03]: I still have it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's I have to find it, but I'll find it and bring it on the show.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's from Pete's stop.
[SPEAKER_02]: Justin Oatsukah says not a question, but the whole vomit bit on last week's stack got me good.
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you for that.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're very welcome.
[SPEAKER_03]: What was that?
[SPEAKER_03]: I didn't know that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I also don't remember.
[SPEAKER_02]: Remember we sell a lot of service.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, and Stanley says will the lanterns show be good?
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it looks good.
[SPEAKER_03]: It looks good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're leaning more into the actual lantern stuff than I ever thought they would.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's much more flying in it, where I was like, there's no flying.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think this is going to be like they would use the rings to like, open doors or something, but now it's like cans.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, so
[SPEAKER_03]: The vibe, you know, it's a little over-to-clock in the trailers.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're everyone's a little, like, doing noir, but those actors are good.
[SPEAKER_03]: And Anpear is great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Kyle Chandler is great, but is specific.
[SPEAKER_03]: Anpear, I think, is just like, he can do a lot.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't know, I'm, I hate to be the, like, sucker hype guy lately, but I am psyched.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I'm sick too.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I haven't liked every IP play that's come out of HBO.
[SPEAKER_02]: I really didn't like the itt show at all.
[SPEAKER_02]: But the penguin was great, you know, that was really good.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the house of the dragon and all that stuff has been great.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a good creative team.
[SPEAKER_02]: I love David Lidd and Loth.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, I think he knows what he's doing and Chris Mundy is, I believe, a TV vet as well.
[SPEAKER_02]: Tom King's kind of into it, but we generally like his writing.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, we'll see.
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see you happens.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, and that is it for your on it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, no, there's more who's a high class and more a couple that were lost at the bottom there.
[SPEAKER_02]: Sorry about that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, this is from I cried during sex catching this late.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I don't know if you guys talked about this already, but any thoughts on whacker big the doing I see in Marvel's move to California general.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, we did talk about that at length.
[SPEAKER_02]: The shirt version is very excited about lacquer.
[SPEAKER_02]: really kind of bummed about the California move and our hearts go out to all the folks that have this going to effect.
[SPEAKER_02]: Natsa says, oh yeah, well we ever get squirrel girl in the MCU.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know how.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's no way they're going to touch comedy given the current state.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's too much, too much of a risk for anyone to make comedy right now in across all programming for the most part.
[SPEAKER_03]: without another genre like a widow's bay type show.
[SPEAKER_03]: And so I just think Marvel's gonna, they're in a full retreat mode just trying to get their gunpowder and their guns to make regular stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: But.
[SPEAKER_02]: it's too bad because a really funny squirrel girl would be great well they didn't have the new warriors pilot that they did with what's named malina vintrown uh... was squirrel girl in it i would love to see that at some point i think they're gonna find some release it release it uh... this is from Fred district house the hype for the clay face movie i think we talked about that a little bit but
[SPEAKER_02]: pretty hyped.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think amongst us hype and I think the hype is generally building across the board for this as the move for all of this stuff to like make the movies that way get into their genre.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean it's like Marvel did it years ago with the X-Force movie.
[SPEAKER_03]: Is that what it was called?
[SPEAKER_01]: they were like blade also at a very horror kind of edge.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, I think you were mentioning this the other day, Justin, but if they could really, they don't need to pretend it's not a DC movie, but if they really lead it to, this is a cool horror movie, then that will hit with people like hundreds of them.
[SPEAKER_02]: There was a trailer that came out today for the other mommy with Jessica Chester, Pete, don't watch it, you will be much too scared.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I was thinking while I was watching that like really all you need to draw people at a hard movie is one shot that's terrifying That's it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, so if they could give it that with clay face, they already kind of have in the first teaser I think they're good to go because if you don't know comics at all, and you just the title clay face is so Stephen King to me It's so like the classic horror.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's like the other mommy is much more modern horror and it's like
[SPEAKER_03]: A title that will just drill in their brain and it's good, but like playface also is that so I think they've got a hit Great hit Bredon holders says NY Comic Con or S.D.
[SPEAKER_02]: Comic Con or is another con your faith?
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, the C2E2 was found back in the day.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was always going swimming in the other direction
[SPEAKER_02]: I, between the two, I like New York Comic-Con just because it's our hometown con, and I can sleep in my house, and that's nice.
[SPEAKER_03]: No, not old man reasons.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I like how I can bring my own lunch.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it doesn't cost my lunch.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would say though, I agree that the New York con is better because you can leave the con and get better food, and then go back to the con.
[SPEAKER_01]: Whereas San Diego, you're a little bit more trapped.
[SPEAKER_01]: But you know, I think there is something nice about leaving the home and being kind of out somewhere and really kind of experiencing it and kind of, you know, because with San Diego it's all the hotels or kind of parting in the bars and stuff like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: So there is that fun side to it.
[SPEAKER_03]: True, and like your home to Khan is when you go in the woods and you in a bunch of like Cinderella burrs read comics, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they read them to me, which is great.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's cool, they chirp them.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it's tough because I wanted to go memory to memory with if you put up doing the interviews in the skybox and how much fun that was.
[SPEAKER_03]: Up against partying at the Hilton, those years in San Diego.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, come on, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: What do you take?
[SPEAKER_02]: San Diego wins, San Diego wins.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, probably is San Diego, just in terms of like, that's crazy that we did all of the stuff that we did there.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, for sure, it's great.
[SPEAKER_02]: A versus New York was just, it's great.
[SPEAKER_02]: We had really good interviews.
[SPEAKER_02]: We had a nice time.
[SPEAKER_02]: I actually really like how Artis Alley has developed at New York Comic-On more than San Diego.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, it is the separate con inside of the con, which is cool, uh, but, I mean, convention center wise said a convention center wins heads down.
[SPEAKER_02]: The javits is weird.
[SPEAKER_03]: Having just spent five days in the javits, I'm inclined to agree with you.
[SPEAKER_03]: The first day of, uh, or the day before fanatics started when we were rehearsing everything, they, the air AC was not on, uh, everyone was disgusting.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh my god, and that for anybody to just know the whole front of the javits is glass.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it was basically like you're I'm not just the front plus I've been being under a lot of being in the end.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was hot.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was disgusting But it got so gross that everyone was like well, we're all like from the highest to lowest.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're all swamps So we everyone was good
[SPEAKER_02]: Before we wrap up these out of his questions, Brett is being very nudging me because I did forget to break this up in honor of our San Diego Comic-Con talk.
[SPEAKER_02]: He created a drink for that's this week which is the Con floor meltdown lemonade.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's vodka lemonade, jalapeno cut into quarters, lemon lime soda and you can put a cheese steak in there if you want Pete.
[SPEAKER_03]: Holy shit.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm making that.
[SPEAKER_03]: That is going to mean my beverage.
[SPEAKER_01]: No jalapenos, please.
[SPEAKER_02]: Extra jalapenos.
[SPEAKER_02]: That which is awesome.
[SPEAKER_02]: No thank you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, thank you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, that sounds delicious.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm like the title.
[SPEAKER_01]: It sounds fantastic.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, there you go.
[SPEAKER_02]: And folks, we're going to move all of our next section, which is trivia.

[SPEAKER_03]: That next issue, but the ones I was going to say on top of that, X-Men, the Hellfire Murder Number 1, this book looks insane.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm very curious to see what's going on there.
