Cette semaine, direction Cleveland au cœur des années 30 , juste après la Prohibition. Le grand héros de l'Amérique, Eliot Ness, célèbre pour avoir fait tomber Al Capone, prend la tête de la sécurité publique de la ville de Cleveland. Mais il va se retrouver face à une menace encore plus sombre qu'un baron du crime : un tueur en série insaisissable. Dans ce nouvel épisode de ComicsDiscovery, votre podcast préféré consacré à la bande dessinée américaine, nous explorons Torso, l'un des premiers titres de Brian Michael Bendis, co-écrit avec Marc Andreyko. Les deux auteurs nous plongent dans l'une des histoires les plus troublantes de leur ville natale, un fait divers glaçant adapté en comic book noir et publié en France chez Delcourt. Torso : du true crime en comics Qui sont les auteurs ?Si vous lisez régulièrement des comics, le nom de Brian Michael Bendis vous est certainement familier. Véritable pilier du comics américain des années 2000-2010, on lui doit des titres phares comme Ultimate Spider-Man, la création du célèbre Miles Morales, ou encore les grandes heures de Jessica Jones dans la série Alias. Il est reconnu pour sa capacité à donner vie à ses personnages à travers des dialogues réalistes et percutants. Plus surprenant : il est aussi le dessinateur de Torso, qu'il illustre dans un style brut, presque expressionniste, qui renforce l'ambiance oppressante du récit. De son côté, Marc Andreyko, co-auteur de Torso, est peut-être un peu moins médiatisé, mais tout aussi talentueux. Scénariste engagé, notamment en faveur de la cause LGBT+, il est l'auteur de titres marquants comme Manhunter chez DC Comics ou l'anthologie Love is Love, publiée en hommage aux victimes de la tuerie d'Orlando. Son écriture se distingue par une forte dimension humaine et sociale. The Cleveland Torso Murderer : un fait divers glaçantTorso adapte une histoire vraie, l'une des plus sombres de Cleveland. Entre 1934 et 1938, un tueur en série inconnu enlève des personnes défavorisées issues des bidonvilles, avant de disséminer des fragments de corps un peu partout dans la ville. La presse le surnommera le Cleveland Torso Murderer. Peu avant le début de ces crimes, Eliot Ness est nommé chef de la sécurité de la ville, chargé de superviser la police et les pompiers. Rapidement, le tueur s'amuse à le provoquer, allant jusqu'à déposer des cadavres à quelques mètres de son domicile. C'est cette traque haletante que Bendis et Andreyko mettent en scène dans leur roman graphique noir. Un contexte social lourdLa grande dépression frappe de plein fouet les États-Unis. Cleveland est envahie par des milliers de personnes à la recherche de travail. Beaucoup s'entassent dans des bidonvilles improvisés, qui deviennent le terrain de chasse du tueur. Sur la dizaine de meurtres, la police ne parviendra à identifier que deux victimes. Leurs histoires, comme celles des autres, restent largement méconnues. Malgré cette tragédie, Torso parvient à offrir un véritable témoignage historique. Le récit, sombre et intense, dévoile un pan oublié de l'histoire des États-Unis, tout en mettant en lumière les injustices sociales de l'époque. Bendis et Andreyko n'oublient jamais de donner une dimension humaine à leur enquête. Un comics marquant, entre enquête et témoignageTorso est une lecture incontournable pour les amateurs de true crime, de thrillers policiers et de bandes dessinées engagées. Le style visuel de Bendis, très éloigné de ce qu'il fera plus tard chez Marvel, donne une personnalité unique à l'ouvrage. C'est aussi l'occasion rare de découvrir l'un des seuls titres qu'il ait illustré lui-même. Que vous soyez passionné d'enquêtes criminelles, d'histoires vraies ou simplement curieux de découvrir un comics indépendant percutant, Torso mérite clairement un coup d'œil. Vous aimez le true crime et le polar ?Si vous êtes amateur de true crime ou de polar noir en bande dessinée, on vous recommande chaudement d'autres épisodes de ComicsDiscovery dans la même veine : Incognito de Ed Brubaker et Sean Phillips :

Storyboarding demon fights on tour?The idea of an 18-wheeler crashing into medieval Europe is wild in the best way.How did you work to ground that concept emotionally and thematically?What makes her essential to the story, and how does she play off Trucker?What kind of research or inspiration shaped the design of The Rig itself?Did you draw from real-life trucking culture, heavy metal, religious iconography, or all of the above?This book is described as Evil Dead meets Fury Road.What's your approach to balancing horror, action, and dark comedy on the page?Nathan, your art often feels like it's in motion even when the panels are still.What visual challenges or opportunities did Big Rig present compared to something like Barbaric?What was most important to you both in setting the tone for this first chapter?⚙️ Segment Break: "Load It or Leave It"Purpose: A rapid-fire segment where they say whether the following elements are "loaded" onto The Rig (i.e., present in the series) or "left behind" (not part of the story).

In episode 243 of Reel Therapy, Daniel and Donavon dive into Marvel Studios' Thunderbolts — exploring where it fits in the broader MCU, how it handles themes of trauma and redemption, and what the film says about mental health in today's culture.They also take a step back to examine Hollywood's responsibility in telling stories about mental health, and how films like Thunderbolts can either help or harm the conversation.A thoughtful breakdown packed with insight, emotion, and a little chaos — just like the Thunderbolts themselves.TABLE OF CONTENTS --00:00:00 - About the Episode00:00:41 - Thunderbolts*00:45:00 - Final Thoughts00:54:31 - Before We GoABOUT THE MOVIE --Thunderbolts brings together a team of morally complex anti-heroes and reformed villains from across the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including Yelena Belova, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, U.S. Agent, and more. Tasked with carrying out covert missions too messy for the Avengers, the group must confront their own inner demons while learning to trust one another.Directed by Jake Schreier, with a script by Eric Pearson, Thunderbolts explores themes of trauma, redemption, and identity against the backdrop of high-stakes action and espionage. The film continues Marvel's Phase 5 and dives deeper into the gray areas of heroism — where not every mission has a clean ending, and not every hero wears a cape.FIND US --For everything Reel Therapy and 241 Studios, check out our website:LINK: https://www.241studios.com/Follow us on:Instagram: @reeltherapy_podcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/reeltherapypod

Gene and cohost Tim Swartz feature Gary D. Rhodes. He is a renowned film historian and author with a passion for uncovering the forgotten stories of horror cinema. He's a world expert on Bela Lugosi and Dracula, and will reveal the secrets of the tragic life story of this world-famous horror film legend. He will also talk about his book, "Weirdumentary: Ancient Aliens, Fallacious Prophecies, and Mysterious Monsters From 1970s Documentaries." The book unlocks the secrets of the strangest cinematic phenomenon of the 1970s. It's the ultimate guide to the bizarre, the unexplained, and the wildly entertaining films and television programs that blurred the line between fact and fantasy. "Weirdumentary" examines dozens of movies and TV series, sold to the unsuspecting public as documentaries, beginning with "Chariots of the Gods" (1970) and ending with "The Man Who Saw Tomorrow" (1981). Leonard Nimoy's "In Search Of" makes an appearance, and so does Orson Wells in his late-career role of sinister yet skeptical narrator. Although listeners to The Paracast know about their factual basis, many of these shows and movies featured spurious experts, questionable evidence, and low-budget dramatization. Acclaimed comic book artist, writer, and historian Stephen R. Bissette, best known for his groundbreaking work on DC Comics' "Swamp Thing" alongside Alan Moore, provides the foreword.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-paracast-the-gold-standard-of-paranormal-radio--6203433/support.

Jace and Rocky chat abotu the DC Comics titles for the week of May 21, 2025. Nightwing forges an alliance with Maggie Sawyer, or does he? Wally West takes control of his life in Absolute Flash though many, many mysteries remain. Speaking of mysteries, the identity and machinations of Elixir remain elusive and as Batman attempts to find answers he discover an interesting an ally. The mystery in Wonder Woman is resolved in time to save Batman, though it seems the murderer will face few if any consquences. Finally in Superman Unlimited we are reminded of just how special Superman is and how much he means to his adoptive planet just in time for catastrophe to strike and it appears the fallout has ushered in a new era for the Man of Steel. Does he have new powers to face this new threat? Only time will tell. Join us for more thoughts on all these titles and more!
Superman Unlimited written by Dan Slott, with interior art by Rafael Albuquerque, colours by Marcelo Maiolo and letters by Dave Sharpe hits shelves tomorrow from DC Comics. This series is set up to be a brand new jumping-on point for all types of readers. If you're a new fan coming off of the excitement for the new film or an old fan wanting to return to the last son of Krypton, this is the book for you! I got the chance to sit down with Dan Slott to chat about the series, Superman, and his world. Listen wherever you get your podcasts or on YouTube! Our first Dan and Dan interview dug deep into the character of Spider-Man where we took time to unpack the character and this interview follows that same web. Dan and I talked about Superman Unlimited and how it came to be after so much time in the industry. Dan opened the interview hard talking about Superman's rogue gallery which we revisit later in the episode. Slott's other work has often featured a heavy emphasis on the third-party cast around superheroes, which has been lacking in mainstream comics. We discussed how he will use Superman's supporting cast in Superman Unlimited to bolster the character and the world around him. Dan talks about which characters he is going to make you fall in love with by the time his run is over. I was lucky enough to read Superman Unlimited before our chat, which I allude to in the interview. I will say there is a scene in issue one that recontextualizes something about Superman and the burden he carries with him that changes a pivotal point in the character's history. It's an extremely powerful moment that Slott has crafted that sets the path forward so much more exciting for longtime fans of the character. This is a series filled with heart, which makes a very strong Superman book for me. You will want to pick Superman Unlimited up as soon as you can!

Everyone has a Batman opinion. Inside your imagination is a definitive Batman: a Batman who should behave this way, and a Batman who should not behave that way. Your tight grip on your Batman is why Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta's carefully considered Absolute Batman works so damn well. They fully understand and appreciate how the character has congealed over the last eight decades into a rock-solid idea. For the last eight months, alongside collaborators like Gabriel H. Walta, Marcos Martín, Frank Martin, Muntsa Vicente, and Clayton Cowles, Snyder and Dragotta have chipped away at the quintessential Dark Knight. They've altered elements of his origin, removed his social position, and rearranged his relationship with his rogues. Their Absolute Batman is a Bruce Wayne in motion, moving toward the impenetrable idea in your head, but struggling to match it. Here is a character growing into something, evolving into a recognizable hero for 2025. After confronting Mr. Freeze in issues seven and eight and facing the final days of Matches Malone, Bruce Wayne must reassess his war on Gotham City crime. What lessons did he learn from that awful day at The Zoo? Do his nights as Batman honor his father's sacrifice? As he fights to find himself, a grotesque demonic doppelganger appears - Bane, the nineties sensation who once broke a bat from another universe. FOC for Absolute Batman #9 is today (5/19/25)! Tell your retailers to order a copy for ya. With this comic, Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta have cooked an undeniable banquet. As the best alternate reality stories should, they've weaponized your knowledge of these characters against you, subverting in radically compelling ways, while delivering what should never be manipulated. Today's podcast features two conversations. Up first, Scott Snyder joins us for a lengthy look back at the last eight months of Absolute Batman. We discuss Bruce Wayne's continuing development into the Dark Knight, his complex relationship with Joe Chill, his father's killer, and why Bane had to arrive sooner rather than later. Secondly, Nick Dragotta pops in for a conversation about his ultra chonky Bane design, and how what we've seen so far is only a hint of his true monstrosity. Absolute Batman #9 will finally arrive in stores, courtesy of DC Comics, on June 11th. Follow Scott Snyder on Bluesky and Instagram, and subscribe to his Substack. Follow Nick Dragotta on Bluesky and Instagram. This Week's Sponsor We're sponsored by 2000 AD, the greatest comic you're not reading! Within its pages is a whole universe of characters, from Judge Dredd and Strontium Dog to Rogue Trooper, Shakara, Halo Jones, and the poor sods slogging across the Cursed Earth in The Helltrekkers.

What drew you to the exquisite corpse method as a structural framework—and how did it shape your writing process across collaborators?2. You've said before that horror lets you explore personal fears in metaphorical ways—what fear sits at the heart of Exquisite Corpses for you personally?3. This project is filled with shifting tones and visual voices—how did you maintain thematic cohesion across multiple artists and chapters?4. You've tackled horror through multiple lenses—from psychological horror in The Nice House on the Lake to body horror in Something is Killing the Children. Where does Exquisite Corpses fall on your personal horror spectrum?5. You've spoken about burnout and choosing joy in your writing—did this collaborative process reawaken anything in you creatively?6. There's a class warfare element baked into the DNA of Exquisite Corpses. How important was it for you to make that commentary explicit rather than just subtext?7. You're known for big ideas in genre fiction. Was there ever a version of Exquisite Corpses that could've been a prose project or TV pitch—or was comics always the only way this could work?8. What's one element in Exquisite Corpses—a character, twist, or scene—that you're most excited for readers to finally experience, but can't say anything about yet?

This week, the boys wrap up the greatest event in comics history and go on a long Star Wars tangent, because why not?
Howdy, folks of the interwebs! Your host Double J is back with a shenanigan infused journey into mind of this particular Garbage Can Dood! Today's adventure we are talk'n tales of a galaxy far far away, in a time long long ago! That is the tales of Marvel/DC Comics and the origin story of these tales...These Ancient Alien Cargo Cult concepts and ideas permeate our modern culture and society in the form of epic space narratives of "Star Wars" and Marvel/DC Comics big budget Hollywood blockbusters!Where do these Ancient Alien Cargo Cult concepts come from? Are these the belief systems of a small but powerful and wealthy group of folks who comprise a cult network of Ancient Alien Cargo Cultists, who seek to convince the rest of humanity of their cult belief system?It certainly seems that is the case with Marvel/DC Comics, at least in this dood's perspective! Especially in consideration of the "superpowers" and galactic overlords - sounds very similar to the philosophies of Scientology, a Thelemic offshoot cult.The origin story of the folks responsible for Marvel & DC comics begin in the Sci-Fi/Pulp fiction writers circa 100 years ago. Where these writers would be in the immediate orbit of other Sci-Fi writers, such as Scientology founder L-Ron Hubbard, via a Los Angeles based Sci-Fi writers club. In fact, that Sci-Fi writers club leader, editor, publisher, and literary agent for many of these writers in the club, a Hollywood legend named Forrest J. Ackerman would even claim that this writers club were both engaged in Thelema and Scientology! The specific type of Thelema was the OTO - Agape Lodge run by infamous occultist and rocket engineer, Marvel "Jack" Parsons.So, does Marvel comics owe its namesake to Marvel "Jack" Parsons? Do we see tribute to Parsons even in DC Comics' "Suicide Squad"? And lastly, can these patterns of this Thelemic fan fiction be exhibited in the actions of the actors who star in the Hollywood big budget films based upon Marvel/DC Comics?Anyhow, folks of the interwebs! Thanks for join'n us to get a lil GCD! And folks of the interwebs buckle up as we have a real barn burner today, "Marvel/DC Comics...Thelemic Fan Fiction?".Enjoy the show!Links for JJ - https://linktr.ee/operationgcd
This week on The Professional Left, we're asking the question that's suddenly on everyone's mind: "Does motivated reasoning have any limits?" When a president accepts a $400 million jet as a "gift" from Qatar and his administration floats suspending habeas corpus, are we finally reaching a tipping point?We'll explore why even some of the most devoted right-wing voices are squirming uncomfortably as Trump's corruption moves from the shadows into broad daylight. Is this his "Katrina moment," or just another Tuesday in America's descent into authoritarianism?Join us for a deep dive into cults, corruption, and the Constitution as we continue broadcasting from the Cornfield Resistance. Plus, what a little-known DC Comics villain can teach us about the emotional spectrum of greed in politics today.Links for this episode: Oxford Research Encyclopedias, 'Motivated Reasoning and Politics' https://oxfordre.com/politics/politics/view/10.1093/acrefore/9780190228637.001.0001/acrefore-9780190228637-e-923Capitol Fax, Former Gov.

And in the middle of it all are the greatest heroes and villains in the known universe! In advance of the coming void, new heroes debut to try to halt the coming cosmic disaster. The "old guard" is thrown into the breach where they find themselves battling forces of nature, time tossed Triassic terrors, and unknown heroes!It's time once again to join your hosts James, Keith, and Joe as they revisit the DC Comics universe shattering classic tale of "The Crisis on Infinite Earths"! The issues discussed and dissected in this segment are: #'s four, five, and six. And the first thing that becomes abundantly clear is that the artwork of George Perez, with the addition of Jerry Ordway's inks, gets even more spectacular! The guys drool over this artistic tour de force and drill down on the sheer magnitude of characters put to page, and the skillful storytelling techniques employed to delineate such a feat.
