This week, BatChat is once more joined by Patreon backer and friend of the show Matt McThorn. This time, Matt wanted to talk about times Batman and his allies and enemies crossed over with properties from Dark Horse Comics. So we have Batman meeting Hellboy (and Starman, but that’s less of a jump), The Joker…
Writer Fred Kennedy joins The ComicsXF Interview Podcast to talk about his new Mad Cave Studios series, The Florida Hippopotamus Cocaine Massacre.
The X-Men have often been cartoons, but what if they tried to be funny? Would that be good? History says “no.”
We read three stories an episode. So with that math, episode 222 means we are ranking story 666, which is certainly a portentous number. It’s a number that screams horror. And it’s not like we haven’t covered plenty of Batman horror on this show. But as we get to that number here, we figured there’s…
Joe Pruett joins the show to talk about the return of his comics anthology Negative Burn, currently crowdfunding on Zoop.
Battle of the Atom ranks weird Kitty Pryde stories, including X-Men: True Friends and Kitty Pryde: Agent of SHIELD.
This week, BatChat is returning to the three runs we’ve been following in order. Well, sorta. Yes, we’re reading the next arc of No Man’s Land and the penultimate arc of Grant Morrison’s epic run. But Injustice has been showing signs of severely diminishing returns the past few volumes, and we had something else we’ve…
Kristen Gudsnuk joins the show to talk about her new Dark Horse Comics series Touched by a Demon.
Battle of the Atom blazes it up for its 420th episode with three X-Men stories you may have to be stoned to read.
The Creeper is a weird character. He’s a guy with yellow skin, a green and black banana hammock, and a red fur boa. That’s a heck of a look. He’s also a good guy that most think is a bad guy. And sometimes he hangs out in Gotham City. That’s a lot on a character…
Oh Gosh, Oh Golly, Oh Wow! co-host Dr. Christopher Maverick helps Dan discuss Excalibur #120, which chronicles the breakup between Pete Wisdom and Kitty Pryde.
Alex Paknadel comes on the show to chat about his upcoming Cyclops series, the Punch Dimension, and what it’s like writing X-Men this past year.
It’s the start of a new year again, and so, as we do every year, it’s time to look at some new visions of Batman in a handful of Elseworlds. We’ve got a pulpy adventure of Batman and Superman, the Bat-pirate Leatherwing sailing the seven seas and an issue of the Batman Chronicles anthology with…
Tony Thornley, Dr. Anna Peppard and John Bush join Dan and Matt to talk about the best comics of 2025, along with picks for best writer, best artist, best publisher and hopes for 2026.
Happy holidays to all! As is our tradition, and as we aren’t going to run out any time soon, the week of Christmas we read three stories of the holidays in Gotham. One is a little holiday kinda-noir from Bat legends Denny O’Neil and Frank Miller, one is a perplexing animated series style Brave and…
