In a special, year end episode of Off Panel, we look at the defining themes of 2022 in comics with the help of Big Bang Comics' Bruno Batista, The Beat's Heidi MacDonald, and Vault Comics' Damian Wassel. Up first is Batista (1:10), who talks about the number of comics in the direct market with no clear audience, how widespread this issue is, how focused this issue is, how much this issue has worsened, whether marketing fits into this, and how this has affected the market. After that is MacDonald (33:00), who discusses the stagnant page rates, creator monetization, where those subjects are all headed. And to close is Wassel (109:09), who talks about the state of storytelling in comics, where sci-fi and fantasy are as genres, longform storytelling in comics, how things are evolving, comics being the last bastion of serialized storytelling, and more.

In this week's episode of Off Panel, retailer John Hendrick joins to chat about his shop, Dublin's Big Bang Comics. Hendrick discusses his first nerd love, the last year in the shop, their shift to toys, how the store itself has changed, changing consumer behaviors, the increase in work, trades and graphic novels, the explosion of young customers, whether this will keep going, the biggest thing he learned in the last year, his own happiness, and more.
Marvel Comics and Jason Aaron debuted images of their latest creating “Winter Hulk” from Aaron's upcoming AVENGERS story ‘World War She-Hulk'. If the constant retreading up old stories isn't enough, Marvel are obsessed with regressing Jennifer Walters She-Hulk to the point everyone hates the character. (00:11:35) Marvel announced not one but five writers are replacing Nick Spencer on AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Kelly Thompson, Zeb Wells, Patrick Gleason and Cody Ziglar are replacing Peter Parker with Ben Reilly for their upcoming Spider-Man Beyond story. (00:33:09) Valiant Comics Upcoming NINJAK features some of the worst on in modern superhero comics. Many customers criticized the work, you won't believe what Big Bang Comics in Dublin had to say about it. (00:46:19) Why are certain corners of the fandom obsessed with the sexual orientation and proclivities of fictional superheroes? Wes and Eric Breen have a thing or two to say about it. (01:02:30) Back in the day the belief was the customer was always right, meaning it was the responsibility of the service provider to ensure their customers were happy with their product or service. Does this rule still apply to the modern comic book industry? (01:19:04) Last weeks PLANET-SIZE X-MEN had an enormous reveal. Can one cool reveal save the Hellfire Gala Event from going down as one of the worst events in modern comic book history? (01:41:13) Disney+ LOKI is halfway complete, and its felt pretty underwhelming. Episode 3 is certainly the most exciting of the series thus far, but they have plenty of work to do to end this on a high note. (02:04:19) Support Thinking Critical at Ko-fi.

One of the great things about comics is that there’s a story for everyone. A character for everyone. Or there can be, some groups are just more well represented than others. What can you do? If you’re Joe Glass, you can go write a comic that has been popular enough to spawn a 400+ page omnibus release. I’d say that’s doing a little something to make sure that marginalized portions of the population can get some more and better representation wouldn’t you? This episode is brought to you by everyone who has made The Pride possible. Which might even include you. Pick up your copy from your local comic shop, Amazon, or Joe’s personal pick Big Bang Comics. Or you can prove to me that you read show notes by telling me that I have this offer to give away a copy in the show notes and I’ll enter you in a drawing for a free copy. Assuming I can ship it to you without costing me a small fortune, and if that’s the case we’ll work something out. Learn such things as: How do people possibly miss the point of this series? How many things had Joe written before popping this wonderful series out? Who is the worst group of fans in all of comics? And so much more!

Wes talks about growing malaise among Marvel Comics fans. Event fatigue is one thing, but Marvel are burning fans out with constant retreads of classic stories, This week Marvel announced Jason Aaron's AVENGERS will introduce a World War She-Hulk story. (00:00). Big Bang Comics reported Marvel are offering more variant cover SKU's than they have orders for HEROES REBORN #1. Comic writer Aaron Sparrow joins the show to talk about why it's unhealthy for the industry. (12:31) Dok and Wes discuss Rod Lamberti of Rodman Comics questioning why Marvel hasn't had a hit comic in almost 2 years. (34:21) X-Men historian Dok also talks about Marvel's latest plan to relaunch X-MEN and move Jonathan Hickman to a secret title. (55:42) Marvel revealed the identities of the new X-Men team, spoiling one reason to read the upcoming HELLFIRE GALA event. (01:17:57) Perch and Wes examine the growing disconnect between the comic book industry and their customers. (01:36:21) They then wrap-up KING IN BLACK, the conclusion to Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman's 3-year VENOM story. (02:02:27) Doug Ernst explains why forgoing Indiegogo and Kickstarter campaigns for his SOULFINDER: BLACK TIDE comic is drawing so much criticism. (02:22:26) Finally, Wes and Skip review episode 5 of THE FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER. (02:38:00) YouTube Channel: youtube.com/c/ThinkingCritical Support Thinking Critical at Ko-fi.

Pete Loved in conversation with David Eastaugh. Pete Loveday is a British underground cartoonist. He drew many comics charting the adventures of hippie character Russell including Big Bang Comics, Big Trip Travel Agency, Plain Rapper Comix printed by AK Press. He draws like Robert Crumb or Gilbert Shelton with lots of cross-hatching. Big Bang Comics is Britain's most successful underground comics. Recurring themes in the comics are drugs, Rock festivals, environmentalism etc. Plain Rapper Comix #2 is Loveday's pamphlet in comic book form on a history of hemp and why it would be beneficial for the environment to replace tree paper with hemp paper and he practices what he preaches by being the first publication in modern times to be printed on such paper. The Russell comics were reprinted in book form Russell, The Saga of a peaceful man published by John Brown Publishing. Russell reappeared in the Big Trip Travel Agency series published by AK Press (6 volumes); which are a series of short stand alone cartoons and also a serialised longer story. Issue 2 featured The Levellers. After Big Trip 5 (1999) Russell's story was to be continued in Volume 6, which it seemed would never appear. Then in 2012, to many fan's delight, AKPress made Big Trip 6 available through their website and through a mainstream Internet retailer where some reviews of Loveday's classic comics can also be read. As a champion of British small press comics he drew lots of multi-artist jam strips in B. Patston's Psychopia. He drew a Russell comic in Danny King's Blah, Blah, Blah! He used to have a stall at Glastonbury Festival, selling his comics and other items and now, after a gap of more than a decade, has a stall at the Secret Garden Party and Beautiful Days, both festivals for which he produces artwork. Although he has had some problems with his eyesight these are finally being resolved, and have never really prevented him from producing a wide range of artwork, ranging from advertising posters (including some unlikely billboard art for Nike) through greetings cards, postcards, CD and record sleeve designs, book illustrations to flyers and T-shirt designs. In July 2018 Freedom Seeds, a UK based seed bank, named a cannabis strain ‘Big Trip’ in tribute to Loveday. Pete created a logo for the product. Loveday attributes his black sense of humour to having spent the 1969 Summer of Love disembowelling chickens in a poultry processing factory, a traumatic experience which left him with a morbid fear of death. He lives in Devon with his wife Kate.
Dal and Patrick were both jurors for CAKE (Chicago Alternative Comics Expo) applicants again this year, and our scores were due today. Image Comics is offering full returnability on some of their upcoming #1 issues, and an earned higher discount on issue #2’s. Dal tricked Patrick into watching the Spider-Man Far From Home trailer, and he wasn’t even trying to do so. Dark Horse’s upcoming INVISIBLE KINGDOM from Berger Books is really, really good. More on it next week. We had yet another Challengers customer visit All Star Comics in Melbourne this week. Big Bang Comics from Dublin had a really interesting Twitter thread about today’s comics retail market and how retailers don’t seem to blame themselves. Kelly Thompson should not be the only one promoting her new digital release from Marvel. No, we won’t sell you 15 copies of Ironheart #2 on the day it comes out. Marty + Sarah (Love Wrestling) are coming to Challengers on Easter Sunday!
In this week's special edition of Off Panel, creators Declan Shalvey and Stephen Mooney and retailers Bruno Batista and John Hendrick join the show in a live podcast recording from Dublin's preeminent comic shop, Big Bang Comics. In the episode, we discuss how creators, retailers and journalists can work together to give comics a bright future, how promoting comics is changing, what comics are today, whether artists can consider the industry as a whole while working, what artists can do to work with retailers, the biggest misconceptions about retailers, whether fill-in artists impact orders, incentive covers, social media's impact, how your location impacts your ability to work in comics, whether it's good enough to just be good, comic sites, what the future of comics looks like, and more, before diving into a quick Q&A.
This month we chat to Luke Healy about his life and work, give a shout out to Big Bang Comics in Dublin and share some news, including our appearance at the upcoming Dublin Comic Art Festival and some great deals on issues of Metroland in our webstore. The post Signals From The Hill #6 – Luke Healy appeared first on Avery Hill Publishing.
On this week's episode of Off Panel, the owner of Big Bang Comics in Dublin, John Hendrick, returns to the show to talk the world of comics. Hendrick discusses his shop's perspective on Marvel, their comic market tweets, BookScan's plan to track sell-through of comics, the difference between Rebirth and Legacy, the lack of awareness amongst their customers in Legacy, DC's handling of Alan Moore properties, how his shop is doing this year, the impact of having a great staff and a good looking store, the controversial retailer meeting at NYCC, whether the direct market is killing print comics, the crew of people trolling Big Bang and varying people in comics, and more.
This week on The Comics Pals is a Marvel-centric one as the Pals talk about the series of bad news for Marvel that sparks a discussion about whether or not Marvel's time on top of the comics world has passed, what they've done so wrong to turn off so many people, and what Marvel needs to do to bring their fans back.

Marvel comic book sales are down this year from 2016's numbers. Secret Empire drastically underperformed and was met with heavy backlash from fans and critics alike based on its premise alone. Retailers are outright refusing to buy-in on the Marvel Legacy lenticular covers. Confidence in Marvel is nearly as low as it's ever been, leading to two obvious questions: is Marvel's time as the unrivaled king of the comic book world at an end, and what can be done to right this ship?
