They discuss being new to Star Trek comics, Picard's Academy, The Scorpius Run, Sons of Star Trek, Star Trek, Star Trek: Defiant, wrapping up and their final thoughts.  In the news they discuss a new release that is imminent and the delay of an upcoming book as well.    News New Releases Coming  (00:02:55)               Feature: Comics Catch Up New to Comics (00:04:27) Picard's Academy (00:06:10) Strange New Worlds: The Scorpius Run (00:11:20) Sons of Star Trek (00:21:42) Star Trek (00:31:44) Star Trek: Defiant (00:44:48) Wrapping Up (00:51:45) Final Thoughts (00:53:55)         Hosts Casey Pettitt and Jonathan Koan  Production Matthew Rushing (Editor and Producer) C Bryan Jones (Executive Producer) Greg Rozier (Associate Producer) Casey Pettitt (Associate Producer)

To honor the legendary Akira Toriyama, we read a story from Dragon Ball Super that Chris says embodies everything great about Dragon Ball! And guess what? It ruled.

Matt and Chris read the first arc of Gail SImone's 2013 run on Red Sonja, and simply couldn't help comparing it to other things, even though it's probably unfair.

We're finally reading Al Ewing and (mostly) Stefano Caselli's Arrako-based X-Men book, and spoiler: It rips.

Before we can read all the raw moments in X-Men Red, we have to catch up with Al Ewing's prelude, his 11-issue S.W.O.R.D. series!

It's a Christmas comic! It's a Keith Giffen comic! It's very wacky! So what did we think of this 1985 one-shot?

This month, we're catching up on the 12 issues of the Mark Waid/Chris Samnee run on Black Widow! And we're particularly invested in the unusual way it was made.

We're finishing out the (first) saga of Jared Stevens: The Man Called Fate on this episode. Can issues 11-22 overcome the problems of the first half of the series, or maybe discover some brand new ones?

For our belated celebration of the birthday of the King of Comics, Jack Kirby, we're reading this 1981 Pacific Comics series of his that we've never read before! So how does it stack up?

It's a SUPER-SIZED catch-up as Matt and Chris lengthily discuss and rank Berserk's Black Swordsman arc and the Golden Age arc!(NOTE: The Childish Gambino name story is more of a widely held theory rather than definitive truth. Glover himself says he got his name from an online Wu-Tang Clan name generator.)

After considerable pressure to do so, this month, we're covering the first 11 issues of the 1994 reimagining of Dr. Fate, with Jared Stevens taking on the mantle of the Man Called Fate. It's quite a ride.

This one snuck up on us! So does Al Ewing and Javier Rodriguez's follow-up to their 2021 Defenders series live up to the original?

Two stories we hadn't read from our last Every Story Ever special really caught our attention, so we're reading them both on this month's Catch-Up! One is a recent Boba Fett fan comic, and the other is a Disney Adventures crossover from 1994.

The New 52 version of Secret Six brought Gail Simone back to write, and Catman's still there. But otherwise it's quite different from the previous versions of the title. So how do these 14 issues hold up?

We're kicking off the year by visiting a whole new universe! That's right, our first catch-up of 2023 focuses on the Heroes Reborn event from a couple years back, written by Jason Aaron with a whole bunch of great artists. It...definitely reminded us of some stuff.Go to paperlike.com/ajax and click "Buy Paperlike"!

Listen to this episode or get a thick ear! We're covering two Judge Dredd Christmas stories this month, both from 1989!

It's the spookiest month, so we caught up on a spooky comic! We dug into a five-issue miniseries from Vault Comics this time around, and we were very pleasantly surprised.

Our listeners keep telling us to read Chainsaw Man, so we dipped our toe in the water with this short story by creator Tatsuki Fujimoto. Did it make us cry our eyes out or did we laugh it out of the theater?

By your request, we read all 12 issues of the 2015 Black Canary series by Brendan Fletcher, Annie Wu, and an array of other artists. How does this DCYOU offering hold up? Listen and find out!
