This is Part One of a three-part deep dive with comics legend Diana Schutz, whose editorial fingerprints are all over modern comics history. From her influential years at Dark Horse to her early work during the Comico era and beyond...We start at the beginning: Diana's first exposure to comics through Supergirl and her love for the clean, expressive style of 1960s comic art. That passion never faded—it evolved. She walks us through the meticulous process of restoring a classic Lois Lane cover, explaining how comics restoration has grown into a serious craft and industry of its own.From there, we explore her current work translating a graphic novel by Brazilian artist Ricardo Leche for a new high-end comics art publisher, and she breaks down the real art of translatio. Why cultural nuance matters, and why having the right English-language voice is essential to preserving tone and intent. We also rewind to the early '80s, when Diana launched The Telegraph Wire, a 32-page bi-monthly comics magazine that began as a retailer newsletter and became a proving ground for her editorial skills. She talks about learning graphic design on the fly, selling ads, interviewing creators, and building something from scratch in a pre-internet comics landscape. It's a vivid look at a smaller, more intimate industry, one where relationships mattered and information wasn't instantly searchable. Along the way, Diana reflects on working at Comics & Comix, getting recruited by Kim Thompson to write for Amazing Heroes, connecting with Matt Wagner, and navigating an industry that had very few women in visible roles at the time. She shares memories of mentors like Trina Robbins, editors like Maggie Thompson and contemproraries like Karen Berger, and even her wild experience serving as Tom Baker's minder at a Chicago Doctor Who convention, complete with behind-the-scenes fandom chaos. This first chapter of our conversation is about origins, craft, and survival in a young comics industry that was still figuring itself out. And it sets the stage for much more to come.

Read transcriptWelcome, web-slinging console warriors and handheld hop-scotchers! Prepare your cartridges and grab your controllers, because this week on Play Comics we're diving into the gloriously chaotic streets of New York with Spider-Man: Battle for New York, the 2005/2006 portable powerhouse that took Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley's Ultimate Spider-Man universe and somehow crammed all of Manhattan's mayhem into a GBA and DS-sized punch-up bonanza. Because apparently, someone looked at one of the most beloved comic runs of the 2000s and thought, “You know what this needs? A brawler where Spidey spends most of his time frantically hammering the same three buttons while dodging increasingly ridiculous villain attacks.” Released across Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS, this wasn't your typical web-slinging adventure—it was more like someone distilled all of Ultimate Spider-Man's most explosive moments into a side-scrolling arcade experience where the city itself becomes just as much of an enemy as Green Goblin ever was. With a roster of villains pulled straight from the comics and more “beat stuff up” objectives than you can shake a web at, this game proved that sometimes the best way to honor a beloved comic series is to completely reinvent what it means to be Spider-Man. This week, we're absolutely thrilled to welcome the phenomenally knowledgeable Jarrett Tyree from Has To Do With Spider-Man I Think, who brings an encyclopedic understanding of all things Arachnid and animated to help us untangle whether this game managed to capture the kinetic energy of Bendis's run or if it just left our webbing all tangled in the wrong places. Jarrett's the kind of Spider-expert who can probably explain exactly why this game makes the choices it does, while also gently reminding us that sometimes video game adaptations are more “inspired by” than “faithful to” the source material. So strap in your web-shooters, prepare for some serious button-mashing mayhem, and get ready for an episode that explores whether this dual-platform adaptation is a hidden gem of portable gaming or just another case of “well, we had to do SOMETHING with this license.” Let's see if Battle for New York is worth defending! Learn such things as: How connected to the actual comic storylines is this game, or does it just borrow character names and call it a day? Does an action-packed comic run actually translate better into a side-scrolling brawler than into an open-world adventure? Why do handheld games keep trying to squeeze console-sized epicness into screen sizes that make text completely illegible? And so much more! You can find Jarett as part of Has to do With Spider-Man, I think on BlueSky @smitpod and of course the Has to do With Spider-Man, I Think website.

Mike and Cole are back with a wrap up of their Summer long Comix Camp!

This week on Comix, the crew dives deep into a packed slate of pop culture news! We kick off with Tramell Tillman's mysterious new role in the Spidey-verse and Guillermo Del Toro's long-awaited Frankenstein, officially set to hit theaters October 17. With Batman Day coming September 20, the debate rages: Can Matt Reeves' Batman saga ever eclipse Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy? Especially now with the shocking news that Zoë Kravitz won't be returning as Catwoman in Batman 2.We also unpack Glen Powell's bold take on casting James Bond, revisit the return of Super Troopers 3, and celebrate the legacy of John Candy as his son Chris gears up for a cameo in Spaceballs 2. Plus, wild casting news: Eric André as Doc Savage in the Street Fighter film and a teaser of Cody Rhodes as Guile. Over at Marvel, Mahershala Ali steps away from voicing Blade in Marvel Zombies, and we pay tribute to the legendary Terence Stamp.It's a jam-packed episode full of laughs, debates, and plenty of geek fuel—don't miss it!

This week things get messy fast! We kick off with Charlie Hunnam stepping into the twisted role of Ed Hein in the new season of Monster before diving into the Hollywood cage match nobody asked for: Robert Downey Jr. vs. Ryan Reynolds — actual beef or just rich-people improv?Meanwhile, Este has his mind blown after finally realizing Alien, Predator, and Blade Runner all exist in the same universe (don't worry, we've scheduled his intervention). The guys also weigh in on the Rebel Alliance casually calling stormtroopers “white people”, the internet melting down over whispers of a Peacemaker orgy scene (?!?), and the sad, running joke that Doomsday is STILL not finished — years later, like your friend who keeps promising they're “almost done” with their screenplay.It's unfiltered, it's unhinged, and it's very Comix.

The Comix crew is back with another stacked episode! We kick things off with James Gunn shaking up the DCU once again — retconning Peacemaker while also shutting down the rumors of Chris Pratt as Batman. But don't worry Bat-fans, Gunn teases a potential Dark Knight in the form of Alan Ritchson.Over in the Marvel camp, the long-awaited Marvel Zombies trailer drops, giving us gruesome first looks at Blade, Spider-Man, Namor, and even the Thunderbolts. Meanwhile, Channing Tatum promises to tone down the Cajun (sorry Gambit stans), and Ryan Gosling signs on for the upcoming Star Wars flick, Star Fighter — joined by Aaron Pierre and Amy Adams.Halloween Horror Nights is about to get a little darker with Wyatt Sicks getting his own maze, while Ewan McGregor is out here actually doing his homework (yes, that's newsworthy). To top it all off, The Smashing Machine lands a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, but DJ admits he's still terrified to take on a dramatic role.From Bat-casting to zombie feasts to starships — Episode 225 has it all!

The Comix crew swings back into action this week with a first look at the Spider-Man: Brand New Day suit, plus a flood of set photos and even some practical web-swinging stunts on display. Meanwhile, in the realm of the bizarre, comedian Matt Rife now owns the Annabelle doll—and we're not sure if that's flex or curse.Hollywood shakeups continue: Dave Bautista is officially joining the Highlander reboot as the fearsome Kurgan, Gina Carano takes a victory lap against the Mouse, and Daniel Kaluuya returns for a Spider-Punk film. Elsewhere, Dean Cain is still trying to stay in the headlines, while Michael Bay is back behind the wheel for another Transformers movie.Finally, Gotham fans rejoice—The Batman 2 has entered pre-production, with filming set to kick off in Spring 2026.Superheroes, horror dolls, reboots, and explosions—it's all packed into Episode 222!

In this 2014 career deep-dive, Dark Horse Executive Editor Diana Schutz walks us through four decades in comics—with zero varnish. We trace her start behind the counter in Vancouver and at Comics & Comix in Berkeley, where she leveled up from retail to publishing, then the blink-and-you-miss-it Marvel stint and the formative Comico years shepherding creator-owned work.Finally, Diana lands at Dark Horse in 1990, rising to executive editor, championing auteurs, and launching the creator-driven Maverick imprint. Along the way we hit milestone collaborations—Frank Miller's Sin City and 300, Matt Wagner's Grendel, Stan Sakai's Usagi Yojimbo, Harvey Pekar's American Splendor —and unpack her editor's playbook: protecting voice, negotiating deadlines without killing the art, and why “editor” means partner, not policeman. It's a masterclass in how careers are built, catalogs are curated, and why creator rights matter—told by someone who helped shape the modern indie era.

This week on Comix, we cover everything from Krypton to carnage! Superman reviews are in and we're breaking down the critics, the crowd, and where the DCU is headed next. Plus, the long-awaited Mephisto reveal has finally happened—was it worth the wait or another Marvel misdirect?In the world of adaptations, we talk the just-announced live-action Solo Leveling, Netflix's return with Old Guard Part 2 and Sandman Season 2, and the surprise drop of Record of Ragnarok Season 3. Then it's time for rumors: James Bond casting buzz is heating up, and whispers of an Indiana Jones reboot have fans divided (again).Also, we go full primal with our take on the Liver King documentary—a wild ride through fake abs, supplements, and internet infamy.And of course, Mosby's Games are back: • Rants: What's grinding our geek gears this week? • Who Wore It Best: Sidekick Edition – Robin? Bucky? Chewbacca? We judge them all.Strap in—this episode's got reveals, rants, and ridiculousness in equal measure.

We are traveling to Earth-383, a so-called Negative Earth first featured in Adventure Comics #383 (1969), where Supergirl seemingly perishes in an explosion and attends her own funeral—joined by the spirits of Abraham Lincoln, Joan of Arc, and other ghostly figures! This Bronze Age tale was recently revisited in Back Issue #159 as part of a 40th anniversary retrospective on Crisis on Infinite Earths.Episode #163: What if Supergirl was dead and able to be amongst other dead people like Joan of Arc and Abraham Lincoln? from DC Comics Adventure Comics #383Find us at https://linktr.ee/dearwatchersWe're diving into the ethereal and existential! We begin with Supergirl's strange funeral in the Silver Age story Please Stop My Funeral! before rewinding to the surprising proto-Supergirl tales from the ‘40s and ‘50s. Then we haunt the haunted halls of Kara Zor-El's multiversal history and her celestial cinematic debut in the 1984 Supergirl movie. Along the way, we explore ghost stories, alternate deaths, and historical cameos in the DC Universe—then wrap with a look at how these odd tales ponder Supergirl's mythic potential.Reading / Watch List:Action Comics #252 (DC Comics, 1959) – Debut of Supergirl by Otto Binder & Al PlastinoAdventure Comics #383 (DC Comics, 1969) – “Please Stop My Funeral!” by Robert Kanigher & Win MortimerSupergirl: The Official Movie Adaptation (DC Comics, 1985) – Based on the 1984 filmSupergirl (film) (Tri-Star Pictures, 1984) – Directed by Jeannot Szwarc, starring Helen SlaterEmail: Podcast@DearWatchers.comFind us & support us at https://linktr.ee/dearwatchersTheme music is Space Heroes by MaxKoMusic (Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0)★ Support this podcast ★ ★ Support this podcast ★
