EXCLUSIVE: This Karen S. Darboe variant cover for X-Men #25 puts the ladies first

Dan Grote2 weeks ago2 weeks ago02 mins

“All the best X-Men are women,” the T-shirt says, and it’s true. X-Men – at least since Chris Claremont – has been a franchise built on powerful, beautiful women, and the men who snikt, zark and bamf for them. There are no Outback-era X-Men without Storm, Psylocke, Rogue and Dazzler. There’s no Blue and Gold…

Our very first Dick Grayson backer, Josh Weil, makes his return to the podcast this week, but he’s not It’s strange to think that Jason Todd has been back from the dead longer than he was actually dead now. For those of us who read Batman comics in the 90s, the death of Jason was…

Matthew Lazorwitz and Will Nevin3 years ago3 years ago01 mins

We’re back to the three series we’ve been covering arc by arc. This time, Will actually likes a Grant Morrison story in his run on Batman! The Penguin has a rough day in No Man’s Land! And a reasonable number of artists draw an arc of Injustice! It’s a miracle all around! Well, except for…
