Andy and Mike are back and this time they are looking at stories from two different decades but written by the same writer. Doug Moench had two distinct runs on Batman. In the eighties he followed Gerry Conway on Dark Knight writing duties and continued the "Triangle Era before the Triangle Era and without triangles" storytelling style by working on both Batman and Detective Comics. He left the book after Batman #400, but came back to the Batman title in the early nineties just before Knightfall. He would stay on that title until No Mans Land and is one of the rare Bat writers to leave the character and then return. First up on the docket is Batman #367 and Detective Comics #534, which has a pre-Crisis and even pre-Robin Jason Todd dressed in a fancy costume helping the Batman as he battles Poison Ivy. It's a standard Ivy plot for the time, but this doesn't stop these issues from being entertaining. The guys talk about how skimpy Poison Ivy's outfit is, the very seventies television/Hammer Horror feel to the story, the subplots, and the differences between Don Newton and Gene Colan's art. Then they jump forward to 1995 and talk about Batman #525, which was an Underworld Unleased crossover issue. Not that you would be able to tell that as it has nearly nothing to do with the larger event going on. The story focuses on Mister Freeze and his Underworld Unleashed upgrade, but the bulk of the commentary is about Kelly Jones's art. Mike was not the biggest fan of Kelly's style back in 1995, but that has changed in a big way over the past three decades. It may not seem like it, but Andy and Mike do like feedback even if they are crap at getting to it. The most direct way to do this is to email them, which you can do by directing your thoughts to overlookeddarkknight@gmail.com. You can also leave a comment over on their Facebook page. You can also leave a comment at the new web home of the show, The Bailey Planet. Next Time: Andy and Mike jump back to the early nineties and talk about Venom. Not the Spider-Man villain, but a storyline fromBatman: Legends of the Dark Knight that would later become important to the Knightfall storyline.

Andy and Mike are back with more Elseworlds fun with stories that take place in the 1930's and the late 1800's!  And boy was it a mixed bag. First up is Batman: Dark Allegiances, written and drawn by Howard Chaykin. This story, the one set in the 1930's, has a self-made Bruce Wayne fighting against corrupt politicians and a racist secret society with a dash of fascism thrown in for good measure. For a story set in the early part of the 20th century and published a little over three decades ago there is a really "now" feeling to it that Andy and Mike make a meal of.  They also talk about the two-fisted action, men in suits, women that know their own mind, and the guest appearance from Hitler. There is some contempoary policial talk during this section if you have a problem with such things, but when the sub-text in the story is text in real life it's hard to avoid. Next up is Batman: Two Faces, which has the elevator pitch of "Batman meets The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde". Bruce Wayne is a wealthy socialite that has an interest in fighting crime. The death of a friend at the hands of Two-Face pushes Bruce to create a serum that makes him stronger, faster, and better and he becomes the Batman to bring Two-Face down. A new villain named The Joker complicates matters and a final face-off leads to a shocking revelation. Andy and Mike had issues with this one, but they wonder if maybe starting with a strong story made this one look worse by comparison. The wrap things up with a conversation about the difference between Marvel's What If stories and DC's Elseworlds and the contemporary comic fan scene where they manage to not sound like two old men yelling at clouds. It may not seem like it, but Andy and Mike do like feedback even if they are crap at getting to it. The most direct way to do this is to email them, which you can do by directing your thoughts to overlookeddarkknight@gmail.com. You can also leave a comment over on their Facebook page. You can also leave a comment at the new web home of the show, The Bailey Planet. Next Time: The guys take a look at two Doug Moench written Batman stories. One from the eighties and one from the nineties.

"But, at night to Mohammed, he confessed his doubts: It will not be as we dream, when those of us who survive finally get there. Corrupt politicians have already ensconced themselves. They are waiting for us—waiting for us not as brothers but as our masters. They will use us." – As told to John Berger, "Two Recumbent Male Figures Wrestling on a Sidewalk""For a moment, he actually feels he can't go on, can't function anymore, living two lives with enough stress for ten but less than enough sleep for one."– Doug Moench, BATMAN #484The United States is a broken empire. It just doesn't know it yet. The 1990s marked the full bloom of the international counterrevolution, whose mission to destroy the gains of the 20th century had just seen its first major victory in the destruction of the USSR. With no systemic power to oppose it, capitalism molted the old skin of social democracy, unveiling its truest form to hollow fanfare and a dead-eyed audience.Bereft of an external enemy worth organizing against, unsatisfied with the empty calories of the video game war, confronted with the grim realities of vaunted liberal democratic values, Americans tried to make sense of life at the end of history. Whose triumph was this? Even superhero fans found themselves yearning for—but never quite finding—meaning in heroes whose integral, inflated violence now seemed both superfluous and insufficient to the moment. Despite having "won" the Cold War, maybe what American audiences needed to see was one more domino fall.***⁠⁠⁠⁠The Black Casebook:EmailTwitterBlueskyInstagramPatreon---------Collective Action Comics:Email Instagram TwitterBlueskyPatreon---------Our episode art was by the great Kly, whom you can (and should) support on Patreon.

 I've been trying to get David Walker (Bitter Root, Big Jim and the White Boy, Naomi, Badazz Mofo) on this podcast every season!  Well, it finally happened. I never would have guessed that he'd pick Doug Moench and Paul Gulacy's Master of Kung Fu, but only cause I didn't know anything about those comics.  Having read them now, it's not at all surprising. More James Bond than Enter the Dragon, these 70's Marvel hidden gems hold their own unique place in comics history, not unlike David himself. Here's a link to The Runs Comics Podcast on iTunes.  And here's the link to the show on Spotify.

Con más de cuarenta años de historia, El Vengador Tóxico vuelve con un reboot pero el superhéroe de culto de Troma tiene una curiosa historia que ha dado el salto al cómic, los dibujos animados, el videojuego, el musical y hasta la realidad virtual. El hoy todopoderoso James Gunn forma parte de ella y películas como Deadpool le deben mucho. Lloyd Kaufman y Michael Herz presumen de ser los propietarios de la productora independiente más antigua del mundo, Troma, que pasó de producir y distribuir comedias sexuales a crear un universo lleno de mal gusto, gore y provocación. En 1984 se estrenó la primera entrega de El Vengador Tóxico, una reinvención cafre del superhéroe Marvelita que criticaba el culto al cuerpo y denunciaba la degradación del planeta. Su inesperado éxito, generó tres secuelas y un spin-off: los Toxic Crusaders, una serie animada que buscaba vender juguetes. Hasta Marvel editó sus tebeos con autores tan competentes como Doug Moench o Ann Nocenti, Os invitamos a sumergiros en la extravagante historia del único superhéroe de New Jersey. ¡Viva Toxie!

On this episode, Eric and Faz (along with special guest Ryan Does) continue their mission to read every Thor comic EVER! We close out the 1970's and enter the hallowed 1980's of Thor comics. Roy Thomas, Doug Moench, and Walt Simonson highlight this period and there are so many gems to enjoy!

Doug Moench wrote Batman stories for about a decade over the course of his runs on the character. And while his Bat work is probably best associated with his collaboration with Kelley Jones, generally his best known collaborator is penciller Paul Gulacy, with whom he defined Shang-Chi over at Marvel. That isn't to say he didn't work wit Gulacy on Batman though. This week we read three of those team-ups, including two Legends of the Dark Knight arcs defining the post-Crisis Hugo Strange and a Batman/Predator crossover. Also, this episode is partly brought to you by Matt's local library, which had a copy of that out of print crossover. If you're looking to read comics you can't find elsewhere? Check your local library. They're great resources. Prey (Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #11-15) Bloodmatch (Batman Vs. Predator II #1-4) Terror (Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #137-141) Check out our current ranking list at www.comicsxf.com/batchat-rankings/ Thanks to Geri Nonnewitz for our podcast logo Support the show on Patreon at www.patreon.com/batchatwithmattandwill

Episode 74 - Moon Knight - City of the Dead This week we are continue our look at recent Moon Knight series.  First up we dive into issues number 21-24 of the currently Moon Knight comic, and then its on to the 5-issue limited series City of the Dead, where we see the comic debut of a character fans of the TV show are already very familiar with.  This Week's Stack Moon Knight (2021-2023) #21-24 Moon Knight: City of the Dead (2023) #1-5 Issue Recaps and Discussion Topics Moon Knight (2021-2023) #21-24 21 - The Reese issue (with a Jake cameo)  22 - Follow the money  22 - This is when he's happy  23 - Resolution through non-violence  24 - Morpheus enters The Big Sleep courtesy of Black Spectre  24 – He tries to give Mark, Steven and Jake some peace before he goes Moon Knight: City of the Dead (2023) #1-5 Cross-pollination – New characters starting in TV or movies and then making the jump to comics is still unusual, but is happening more.    This feels very much like something Doug Moench might have written.  Reminds me a bit of Vol 3's “The Resurrection War.”  See our PotMK episode entitled “It Turns Out He Was Only Mostly Dead” for more on that.  A lot of character narration over the action. Characters introduced themselves every issue.  Do all faiths end up in the Duat in the Marvel universe?  This I do not understand.  It also seems weird that there are cars and modern cities.    This is a bit of a “greatest hits” album, bringing back almost all of MKs old foes – or at least the truly villainous ones.  No Scarlett, for instance. Legion of the Unliving is quite the name.  It's always Randall when you least expect it!  We have a Khonshu sighting  Also is a bit weird, in that it finishes with Layla saying “Be Seeing you, Marc.”  Will she??  On Earth?  Or back in the Duat?  I think Lyla is back on earth. Resurrected for her help defeating Jackal Knight Randall  What's up with him just completely forgetting about the fact he has a girlfriend?  Greer deserves better than this guy.  Final Thoughts What's Next  Moon Knight (2021-2023) #25-30 Signoff  Questions or comments We'd love to hear from you!  Email us at questions@comicsovertime.com or find us on Twitter @comicsoftime. ------------------ Music Intro and Outro created by Lesfm.

Episode 05 Moon Knight After Moench and Sienkiewicz This week we are going to dig into the final issues of Moon Knight Volume 1, which were published in 1983 and 1984.  This week sees both Bill Sienkiewicz and Doug Moench move on from the title, after which a rotating cast of writers and artists bring Moon Knight's first volume to a close.  Our hero faces off against bad cops, teen hoodlums, and a homicidal teenage ballerina, and then flies off into the sunset (temporarily) as volume one winds down.  Along the way we talk about team-ups, EC Comics, and what it means when a comic you enjoy is cancelled. The Stack for this week includes: Moon Knight Vol. 1, Issues #27-38 These comics are available online through Marvel Unlimited as well as in collected print editions.   Questions or comments We'd love to hear from you!  Email us at questions@phasesofthemoonknight.com or find us on Twitter @phasesofmk.

Grab your crucifixes, wooden stakes, and silver Batarangs because it's time for a Doug Moench and Kelley Jones classic Elseworlds story! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/noneofmyfriendslikecomics/support

We will break down the third of six issues, titled, MANHUNT! Written by Doug Moench with artwork by George Tuska, M. Esposito, T. Morellaro, and George Roussos. This issue was released on December 1, 1975   We go over the issue as well as review the cover art with YOUR help. We read many comments where you told us your opinion of the cover art by Ron Wilson.

I am excited to welcome Eliot Borenstein to the podcast today to discuss his new monograph, Marvel Comics in the 1970s: The World Inside Your Head, published through Cornell University Press in 2023. Eliot is Professor of Russian and Slavic Studies at New York University. He has published a number of books: Soviet-Self-Hatred: The Secret Identities of Postsocialism (Cornell University Press, 2023); Plots against Russia: Conspiracy and Fantasy after Socialism (Cornell University Press, 2019); Men without Women: Masculinity and Revolution in Russian Fiction, 1917-1929 (Cornell University Press, 2000); and Overkill: Sex Violence, and Russian Popular Culture after 1991 (Cornell University Press, 2008). Marvel Comics in the 1970s focuses on five writers, all born between 1945 and 1948, and their iconic takes on characters and titles: Steve Engelhart's Shang-Chi and Doctor Strange; Doug Moench's Master of Kung Fu; Marv Wolfman's Tomb of Dracula; Don McGregor's Black Panther and Luke Cage; and Steve Gerber's Howard the Duck. In particular, the book explores how subjectivity and the self are expressed through the unique medium and genre constraints of 1970s-era Marvel comics. John Yargo is Visiting Assistant Professor of English at Boston College. He earned a PhD in English literature from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, specializing in the environmental humanities and early modern culture. In 2023, his dissertation won the J. Leeds Barroll Prize, given by the Shakespeare Association of America. His peer-reviewed articles have been published or are forthcoming in the Journal for Early Modern Culture Studies, Early Theatre, Studies in Philology, and Shakespeare Studies.
