Pour célébrer la sortie de sa suite aux États-Unis, ComicDisccovery vous plonge dans un récit culte et controversé de l'univers Marvel : Spider-Man Reign (ou L'Empire en version française), écrit et dessiné par Kaare Andrews. Qui est Kaare Andrews ?Kaare Andrews, auteur canadien aux multiples talents, s'est imposé comme une figure incontournable du comics indépendant et mainstream. Reconnu pour son style graphique audacieux et cinématographique, il a travaillé sur plusieurs séries emblématiques de Marvel comme Iron Fist, Hulk ou encore X-Men. En parallèle de sa carrière dans la bande dessinée, Andrews s'est lancé dans la réalisation de films, explorant des univers visuels marqués par l'expérimentation et la narration atypique. Spider-Man Reign : un futur sombre pour Peter ParkerAvec Spider-Man Reign, Kaare Andrews propose une relecture sombre et poignante de Peter Parker, souvent comparée à The Dark Knight Returns de Frank Miller. L'intrigue nous plonge dans un New York dystopique, placé sous un régime autoritaire où les médias et la population sont étroitement surveillés. Peter Parker, désormais âgé et retiré du monde super-héroïque, vit seul, rongé par le chagrin et la culpabilité. Mais lorsqu'un ancien allié vient raviver la flamme de l'espoir, il est contraint de reprendre le masque de Spider-Man pour mener une révolte contre l'oppression. Un récit engagé et émotionnelSpider-Man Reign explore des thématiques puissantes : la perte, la mémoire, le poids du passé et la résistance face à un système qui écrase l'individu. Kaare Andrews y développe une vision mature et introspective du super-héros, loin des récits classiques. Un épisode à ne pas manquerAlors, Spider-Man Reign est-il une œuvre méconnue à redécouvrir ou une dystopie qui divise ?

In 2005, filmmaker Christopher Nolan was about to become mainstream with the first movie in his superhero trilogy. Meanwhile, a group of developers in Derby were working on a video game tie-in for said movie that wouldn't turn out to be quite as popular. We're taking a look at an action adventure game that was neither a precursor to a game based on The Dark Knight, nor The Dark Knight Returns. We're talking Batman Begins.On this episode of Stealth Boom Boom, we chat a little bit about trailers that feature Batman smiling, Trailer Voice Man, and Phoenix International. We also look at how important it was for this to be an interactive version of the movie in almost every way, as well as a cavalcade of celebs: a disinterested Morgan Freeman, a bloodthirsty Cillian Murphy, anbemused Michael Caine, and a Christian Bale that thinks all this video game stuff is a complete waste of time.Here are some of the things you're gonna hear us chat about in our review: the first glimpses of many things that would become staples in the Arkham games; instilling fear in your enemies by interacting with very specific parts of the environment; goons dropping their guns when they're scared; the optic cable from Splinter Cell; an exceptionally violent inverted takedown; familiar punching and kicking, as performed by a more acrobatic, yet less fluid Batman; the weird context-sensitive special move thing; NO BATARANG BUSINESS; climbing things with 70% arm and 30% leg; bonus Game Boy Advance opinions; a lack of yellow paint; training in the Himalayas; driving the tumbler around Gotham like it's a Burnout game; dingy rooms illuminated by beams of light coming through blinds; restrictions vs limitations; being rewarded(?) with clips from the film in between levels; odd differences in the narrative; Gary Oldman's absence; and a lockpicking minigame that's the same every single time.After all that, we take you through what some of the critics were saying about the game around the time it came out, and then we give you our final verdicts on whether Batman Begins is a Pass, a Play, or an Espionage Explosion.For those who would like to play along at home, we'll be discussing, reviewing and dissecting Deus Ex on the next episode of Stealth Boom Boom.IMPORTANT LINKS TO THINGS

Dive deep into the shadows of Gotham as Geek History Lesson embarks on a gripping journey through Batman's Dark Age—spanning from 1985 to 2000. This era redefined the Caped Crusader, courtesy of visionary creators like Frank Miller, whose "The Dark Knight Returns" brought a gritty realism to Bruce Wayne's world. Alongside Alan Moore's "The Killing Joke," which delved into the twisted psyche of the Joker, and Grant Morrison's innovative narratives in "Arkham Asylum," these stories sculpted a darker, more complex Batman. This period ushered in a renaissance of the Dark Knight, transforming him into a symbol of vigilante justice steeped in moral ambiguity, setting the stage for Batman's evolution for years to come.

In 2024, we published 58 Comic Book Couples Counseling episodes. However, that was not the total Comic Book Couples Counseling experience. Over on our Patreon, we published an additional 61 episodes, including our Married to Singlesseries, where we talk with comic book creators about their favorite single issues. In 2025, we'll make these a regular thing, starting with Tyler Crook this week, diving deep into his cherished Mage: The Hero Discovered #6. Crook has appeared on the podcast multiple times, mostly exploring his exceptional Dark Horse Comics series, The Lonesome Hunters (links to those episodes below). He's a passionate, enthusiastic champion of this medium, and that devotion began at a very young age thanks to books like Mage: The Hero Discovered. We enjoyed this conversation with Crook about this comic so much that we've decided to drop it into the main podcast feed to entice some of you over to the CBCC Patreon, which we consider one of the most welcoming, loving comic book communities on the internet. Published by Comico in March of 1985, Mage: The Hero Discovered #6 landed just as the industry shifted. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 arrived the year before, while Watchmen and The Dark Knight Returns were just on the horizon. Comics were ready to celebrate themselves as thematically rich, adult entertainment. NOT. KIDS. STUFF. Mage: The Hero Discovered #6 was written and illustrated by Matt Wagner and features additional inks by Sam Kieth. The series follows Kevin Matchstick, who is basically a stand-in for Wagner, as he tumbles into a fantasy adventure where each obstacle represents some issue or situation from his own life. Be warned, our conversation with Tyler Crook spoils the entirety of the sixth issue, as well as some critical plot points from the rest of the series. Although, knowledge of those plot points won't ruin your overall reading experience if you decide to read after you've listened to the episode. We make the Comic Book Couples Counseling Patreon as cheap as we can. Our "Smitten Kitten" level costs only a dollar and gives you access to all the Patreon episodes. Our "Dearly Beloved" tier is $5, which grants you access to our Slack community. For the month of January, we're donating all proceeds made by our Patron to BINC (The Book Industry Charitable Foundation). They're helping all the bookstores and comic book shops affected by the LA Wildfires, and Bookshop.org matches all donations up to $10,000.

It's the 50th regular episode of the podcast, and to celebrate, we're finally doing a deep dive on a comic that helped ushered in the Iron Age and still stands as one of its most enduring accomplishments: Frank Miller's Batman: The Dark Knight (better known in collected form as The Dark Knight Returns), aided and abetted by inker Klaus Janson, colorist Lynn Varley, and letterer John Costanza. But after 39 years of attention from the comics industry and mainstream media alike, is there anything left to say about arguably the most celebrated Batman comic ever published? Rather than try to reduce this landmark comic to a tidy message or thesis about “what it means,” we embrace the glorious messiness of DKR. By examining all the complexities and contradictions of the series, we try to foster an honest and true appreciation of this landmark work. Thanks to everyone who's listened to us over the past two years and 50 episodes. There's a lot more great stuff to come.

¡ATENCIÓN! ¡LA TIERRA NECESITA VOLUNTARIOS PARA DEFENDERLA DE LOS SALVAJES INVASORES ALIENÍGENAS! ¡SEAN VOLUNTARIOS PARA EL PROCEDIMIENTO MORITURI Y RECIBAN FABULOSOS SÚPERPODERES! (Letra chica: una vez sometidos al tratamiento, tendrán como mucho un año de vida, pudiendo morir horriblemente en cualquier momento y sin previo aviso.) Flor de trato, ¿verdad? Así funciona la cosa en Strikeforce: Morituri, un Ni El Loro de comics salidos de la mente de Peter B. Gillis y Brent Anderson, publicado por Marvel entre 1986 y 1989, coexistiendo con o cerca de obras maestras como Crisis On Infinite Earths, The Dark Knight Returns, Watchmen, Swamp Thing, o los X-Men de Chris Claremont en pleno auge. En el siglo 21 (que lejano), la Tierra ha sido invadida por una horda de extraterrestres sanguinarios, y todo parece perdido, hasta que un científico inventa un procedimiento para crear soldados súperhumanos. Solo hay dos problemas; los poderes son al azar, y te van a matar en menos de un año... si es que no morís en batalla antes. Eze y MaGnUs hacen la RE: seña de este comic que mezcla ciencia ficción bélica y superhéroes, pero que pocos conocen, y menos gente aún ha leído. Con música de AC/DC, y Santos Inocentes.

Casual Trek - A Star Trek Recap and Ranking Podcast

SHOW NOTES: It's the fiftieth numbered episode! Do our brave and casual explorers want to do something special? Do they want to drastically alter the podcast's format and mission statement (Miles is still holding out for #blakesboys), not particually, but they're interested in when Star Trek's done it! Join them as they finally talk about Star Trek The Original Series' second attempt at securing a series as we meet Captain James R. Kirk as he goes ‘Where No-Man Has Gone Before' and proceeds to meet our first Godlike being who needs a swift beating. Then, in Discovery's ‘That Hope is You Part 1' we heard into the 32nd Century, but discover that Star Wars-style wretched hives of scum and villainy still exist, but we finally get a chance to make the Ship's Cat actually pull his weight around here. Finally to round it all off, we watch ‘Star Trek: Picard's' second season opener ‘The Stargazer', and even technical problems with the call can't stop us from realising that the show has some problems with repeating itself. Will there be drastic podcast changes in the future? If Miles doesn't stop trying to make #blakesboys a thing, possibly! Episodes talked about: ‘Where No-Man Has Gone Before' (13:10), ‘That Hope is You- Part 1,'(41:11) and ‘The Stargazer.'TECHNICAL NOTES: We have a escalating series of technical issues during both the ‘Discovery' and ‘Picard' portions of the episode, we did our best to put together what we could and we apologize for the inconvenience. TALKING POINTS INCLUDE: The New-52, the UNIT era of Doctor Who, first world aspiring writer problems, The Dark Knight Returns, Miles feels like he makes a point and Charlie utterly proves him wrong (this is Miles writing the notes), Severance, Miles getting two entirely different shows mixed up, Miles does NOT want the Confederacy marching up his road, Gary Mitchell and Kelso, we hardly knew ya, where ‘The Cage' and ‘No-Man' are different and where does one work over the other, Kirk's stunt-double, defeating gods with a humble f*****g boulder to their entire body, the different uniforms, Roddenberry's horny casting premises, Spock's shouting again, Big Kirk Nerd, we go on a pretty lengthy digression about Star Wars… for some reason that's totally unrelated to the episode of Discovery, never apply a Star Trek solution to a Babylon 5 problem, Miles makes a reference to ‘Blake's 7' that he feels is utterly valid, Michael Burnham getting to change and evolve, Book, Grudge and the Ship's Cat list, Covid-era SFX, the moment that makes both Miles and Charlie tear up, how Discovery advances the technology of Star Trek and how difficult it is on SF TV to make the far-future believable while not being silly, We Don't Talk About Bruno and a quick digression into Disney films, people wanting to ride Admiral Picard's Sexy Bald Head, Picard really shouldn't be having a midlife crisis in his 90s, Star Trek Captains just don't do personal lives, where Season 2 and Season 3 of Picard really have some noticeable similarities, Charlie still doesn't care for Elnor, John DeLancie is always a delight, there's a lot of smoking weirdness in Picard, we do actually like stuff about Picard honest, honest, honest, awkward personal drama on the Bridge, would Picard smoke a pipe? Secret +2! PEDANT'S CORNER: Eastenders isn't a sitcom, it's a soap opera that makes Game of Thrones look like the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon. Severance and Succession are two different shows MILES

It's the fifth and final Saturday of the month of June and that means the Good Brothers are off to explore the DC Animated multiverse, reviewing an episode of The Batman titled "Artifacts." In keeping with the theme of futuristic Batmen, the hosts discuss a plot that borrows some points from The Dark Knight Returns and others from the 1997live-action film Batman & Robin and how well those are used to tell an interesting story. Meanwhile the hosts discuss visual similarities to Frank Miller's classic TDKR and how Mr. Terrific influenced the future of this universe. Wrapping things up they discuss a unique voice casting decision with one of the series' regulars and a DCAU voice-acting legend in a role that gives one of our hosts the creeps.

During the 1980s the comic book industry came out with some of the greatest stories that we still hold in high regard today. This includes Watchmen, The Dark Knight Returns, Daredevil Born Again, Maus, and so many other innovative comics that changed the mindset of what kind of tales graphic novels can tell. The Incal by writer Alejandro Jodorowsky & art by Mœbius is regarded as one of the most epic sci-fi comic book stories of all time. This French graphic novel tells the wonderous adventure of detective John Difool and how the Incal, an object of immense power. brings him together with a group of strangers, warriors, bounty hunters and talking animals to help guide him through a prophecy that the fate of the universe depends on him to decide. This epic space opera is recommended for anyone who loves worldbuilding, investing in underdog heroes, mystery, and larger than life storylines. Fans of Dune, Blade Runner, Fifth Element, and Riddick are encouraged to read of the most expansive Sci-Fi graphic novel adventures in comic book history.

Alongside Alan Moore's "The Killing Joke," which delved into the twisted psyche of the Joker, and Grant Morrison's innovative narratives in "Arkham Asylum," these stories sculpted a darker, more complex Batman.

This release is part 2, where the duo's conversation continues with Warren Ellis' 6 issues of Moon Knight from 2014 and Lemire's 2016 run.

Scott then provides his theory on why (in-universe) Moon Knight/Marc Spector changes so much, before delving into MK's latest run by Jed Mackay and Scott's thoughts on the future of Moon Knight! In case you missed last week, part 1 of their conversation started with Scott confirming when he first experienced Moon Knight and why he is so interested by the character, as well as why he wanted to release an essay book on the character. The duo then delve into Moon Knight's full history, while referencing several essays within Waxing And Waning, starting with his 1975 debut and 1980 solo comic run, before delving into the “edgy” 2006 Huston/Benson run and some of the runs along the way, before speaking about the Brian Michael Bendis run.
