Wubba lubba dub dubz, ya'll. We're back again for another positively mental episode. Let's get down to these liner notes, here's what's comin' atcha.In the news:Comics artist John Paul Leon passed on May 1, 2021 at the age of 49 from cancer. Some of his works include: Static Shock, Earth X, Batman: Creature of the Night, The Winter Men, Sgt. Fury, and many more. RIP. They've cast the four paper girls for the Amazon adaptation of Brian K. Vaughan and Cliff Chiang's excellent sci-fi coming of age tale, Paper Girls. Sofia Rosinsky, Camryn Jones, Riley Lai Nelet, and Fina Strazza will play the main young ladies, I can't say I've heard of any of them, but I'm hoping for big things to come. Ali Wong has also been cast, and everything's starting to shape up. Now this is an Amazon show I'm excited for. One Night in Miami director and Watchmen alum Regina King to direct a Bitter Root adaptation. The comic is a mix of steampunk/zombie/old magic/Harlem Renaissance that you should definitely be reading.After all that we're shipping you our review of the Top Cow noir-ish town with a secret book, Postal (wr. Matt Hawkins and Bryan Edward Hill; ill. Isaac Goodheart; col. Betsy Gonia; let. Troy Peteri).Then we shine a spotlight on a show Joe has been meaning to watch for a while, season 1 of Rick and Morty.

We can't believe we're 5 episodes in already. Here's what you're getting this week!As always, we kick off with some news:Chloe Zhao getting high praise from Angelina Jolie in reference to the Eternals. Angelina called her a very special director. Small little stories like this are continuing to add to this being the Marvel property I'm most excited to see.John Ridley, 12 Years a Slave writer, is taking over the Black Panther comics. Ta-Nehisi Coates had been the writer on this series for the past 5 years on a critically acclaimed run.An interesting piece of miscellany. A planned Hulk arc originally begun in 1984 is just seeing print now. It looks like this has changed a lot in 35 years, but the book, Monsters written by Barry Windsor-Smith and published by Fantagraphics will be released on 5/5/2021. The copy reads: “Created over a period of 35 years, Barry Windsor-Smith' Monsters is a tour de force of visual storytelling. Part family drama, part espionage thriller, part metaphysical journey, it is an intimate portrait of individuals struggling to reclaim their lives and an epic political odyssey across two generations of American history.” I must say it looks beautiful, but it'll cost you a pretty penny at $79.99.After that we get down to this week's comic swap and Steve had Joe read a grimy, pre-post-apocalyptic take (wr. Ann Nocenti, ill. David Aja) from Dark Horse/Berger Books release The Seeds.Then we move on to the spotlight shows du jour, it's our season wrap ups of Invincible and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.We run down the (mostly) upcoming comics adaptations:M.O.D.O.K. - May 21Sweet Tooth - June 4Loki - June 9And of course talk about what's on the stack this month:The Department of Truth vol. 1 (Steve)Infinity Train ( Steve ) -PLEASE WATCH THIS SHOW!Immortal Hulk vol. 1 (Joe)Scumbag vol. 1 (Joe)Big Trouble in Little China comic adaptation (Joe)Mare of Easttown ( Joe)And we really hope you're coming back in two weeks for our rundown of Postal and our review of Rick and Morty (plus bonus M.O.D.O.K. chatter)Full episode archive: Bubbling Up PodcastFollow us on Instagram or Facebook!

Looks like it could be really useful for tiny market pubs and the like.Then we get down to business with Joe's pick for this month, Mind MGMT (wr. & ill.
