  • Amazing Spider-Man Vol 2 #36 (The 9/11 Issue)
    Oct 12 2023

    This week we got together to talk about a brief, single-issue of comics that was important for the time even if it slightly misses the mark. In November 2001, Marvel released an issue of The Amazing Spider-Man commemorating and memorializing the events of September 11, 2001. Join us as we chat about the comic itself and the broader issue it tackled.

    For the next few episodes, we will be reading comics somewhat at random. We will go back to themed readings for Season 13 in February 2024, but for now we're just going to read whatever we want. Next week, we'll be revisiting a comic series we started literally years ago in Season 2 and reading Locke & Key Vol 2: Head Games.

    Check out the inaugural crossover of the Hall of Pods, our podcast network! We discuss Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness with The Fandom Optimists, Cape Corner, and True Believers: a Comics PoDCast! Find all of our links here.

  • Season 12 Finale
    Sep 29 2023

    Now, it is time once again. Time to judge. Time to quantify. Time to assign value. And time, ultimately, to viciously rank the comics, leaving on one as the ultimate winner, reigning over all others.

    It is time! For the Finale!

    Veronica's theme for this season is stories from the DC Graphic Novels for Young Adults imprint. Monte's theme is the five top-selling superhero comic books of all time.

    The comic lineup for Season 12 was:
    Superman Smashes the Klan
    Amazing Spider-Man (2014) #1-6
    You Brought Me the Ocean

  • MS20 - Nimona
    Sep 14 2023

    It's finally happened. Nimona has been released and we have all watched it. Now it's time to talk about it. In this not-so-minisode we talked about the long-awaited Netflix adaptation of N.D. Stevenson's Nimona. This movie was definitely worth watching, and we would all recommend reading the original graphic novel as well!

    Next week we will be posting our Season 12 finale episode! Veronica's theme for this season was stories from the DC Graphic Novels for Young Adults imprint. Monte's theme was the five top-selling superhero comic books of all time. Check out the comics we've read this season below.
