In this special bonus episode of Geek Freaks, Frank is joined by acclaimed comic book writer Aubrey Sitterson to explore the radical, sci-fi world of Free Planet, his new series from Image Comics. Known for his bold storytelling and politically rich narratives, Aubrey takes us deep into the philosophical core of Free Planet, unpacking its themes of revolution, freedom, and the cost of building a better world. With deep dives into the creative process, the influence of history and anthropology, and the collaboration with artist Jed Dougherty, this episode is packed with insight and fire. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 – Intro: Why this bonus episode matters 00:19 – Who is Aubrey Sitterson? Background and work 01:03 – The concept behind Free Planet 02:08 – Revolution, history, and political roots 04:30 – Defining real freedom and post-war challenges 07:53 – Layouts, spreads, and comic as object 09:46 – Balancing personal drama with large-scale politics 12:30 – Research-driven worldbuilding over aesthetics 18:06 – Interpersonal conflict as a reflection of ideology 22:34 – Creative process with Jed Dougherty 25:54 – Lettering innovations and character voice 28:01 – The unreliable narrator and historical context 34:11 – Print vs digital: Why Free Planet demands paper 43:01 – Final reflections and what's next Key Takeaways: Aubrey Sitterson uses Free Planet to challenge conventional ideas of freedom and revolution. The comic is deeply researched, pulling from real-world political and cultural movements. Free Planet is built as a print-first experience, with double-page spreads, maps, and dense visual storytelling. The creative team—Jed Dougherty, Taylor Esposito, and Vittorio Astone—elevate the book's layered vision. The book includes in-world historical commentary that questions neutrality and narrative control. Sitterson aims to create work that demands attention and resists passive reading. Quotes: “The only freedom worth having is the freedom you fight for.” – Aubrey Sitterson “We made Free Planet for people who want to sit with something and really think.” – Aubrey “Talon's fan reaction was so strong, I had to restructure the story just to give him more space.” – Aubrey “There's a difference between mimicking aesthetics and actually building something from the same roots.” – Aubrey Call to Action: Love these kinds of deep-dive interviews?

In this jam-packed episode of Challenge Accepted, Frank and Thomas review Daredevil: Born Again Episodes 5 and 6. The duo dives into the show's shift from classic "villain of the week" storytelling to its high-stakes narrative arc, breaking down standout performances, hidden MCU connections, and an unforgettable rooftop showdown with Muse. They discuss the return of fan-favorite characters like Swordsman, the rising threat of the vigilante task force, and Kingpin's brutal transformation. From deep-cut comic references to cinematic sound design, this is peak Marvel television—and we're here for it. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 – Introduction and two-episode recap 00:29 – Episode 5 feels like a 90s one-off superhero story 01:23 – MCU-style crossovers and why the Swordsman matters 02:50 – Why New York feels alive again in Born Again 04:11 – The Daredevil/Ms. Marvel crossover potential 06:00 – Irish symbolism, Saint Patrick's Day, and subtext 07:06 – Diamond heist mystery ties to Kingpin's debt 08:04 – Sound design genius in the stairwell fight 09:50 – Is Matt Murdock wise to Kamala Khan's secret? 11:00 – Matt's dry humor and comic-accurate wisecracking 13:04 – Vigilantism explored through Fisk and Angela 16:18 – Muse's twisted rise and white Tiger's origin teased 20:08 – Fisk's growing threat: building his own paramilitary 23:18 – Comic deep-dive: Cole North and the vigilante task force 25:14 – Born Again breaks free of Netflix Daredevil 26:17 – Daredevil's traversal scene and rooftop reveal 27:25 – The epic Muse vs Daredevil fight 29:42 – Sound design and choreography in Matt's favor 30:37 – Muse's possible tech-based powers 32:52 – Intercut action: Fisk's brutal strength unleashed 35:00 – Kingpin's symbolic wardrobe change and emotional repression 36:03 – The final choice: Matt saves Angela 37:25 – Daredevil's faith and no-kill moral code 38:03 – What's next for Daredevil, Angela, and the MCU? 41:33 – Screening for Holland, Michigan + upcoming convention news Key Takeaways: Episode 5 brought nostalgic superhero storytelling with a strong standalone vibe, reminiscent of 90s shows. MCU connectivity is on full display with the return of Swordsman and nods to Kamala Khan, making the world feel more alive. Episode 6 raises the stakes with a deeper look into Kingpin's power grab and the introduction of the vigilante task force. Muse is an intense, terrifying villain with eerie presence and a comic-accurate brutality. Daredevil's enhanced abilities are showcased brilliantly through sound design and visual storytelling. Faith continues to ground Matt Murdock's character, adding emotional depth to his choices. Fisk is on a collision course with total corruption—mirroring his comic book roots as Kingpin. Visual and auditory cues are used to elevate both action and emotional beats in the series. Quotes: “It felt like a villain-of-the-week episode in the best way—just like those 90s shows we loved.” – Frank “They finally made the world feel alive again. You never know which hero or villain is going to pop up next.” – Thomas “Daredevil isn't surviving despite being blind. He's thriving because of it.” – Frank “The pressure is building inside Fisk—and now it's bursting at the seams.” – Thomas “This is Marvel TV at its best.” – Frank Call to Action: Love what you heard?
