For this week's main podcast review, Katie Johnson and Josh Parham join me to review and discuss the latest MCU Tom Holland Spider-Man film, "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," starring Holland, Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Florence Pugh, Tramell Tillman, Marisa Tomei, and Mark Ruffalo. Taking over from Jon Watts director Destin Daniel Cretton steps into the director's chair and brings the larger than life spectacle of the MCU back down to the ground a little bit as the reset button is hit following the events of 2021's "No Way Home," where those who knew Peter Parker cannot remember him any longer, thus forcing our favorite web-slinger into isolation and depression, which leads to some unexpected changes in his DNA while a new mysterious foe emerges that will have ramifications across the entire MCU. Also, Bruce Banner (aka. Hulk), Frank Castle (aka. Punisher), and Yelena Belova (aka. Black Widow) show up! What did we think of it? Please tune in either on video or audio only as we discuss the film's story, its performances, action, humor, visual effects, its awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

San Diego Comic-Con delivered one of the biggest news weekends of the year, and we're digging into all of it on this week's AIPT Comics Podcast. We break down DC's latest Next Level announcements, including new ongoing series for Vixen, Static, Batman, The Demon, and Jonah Hex, react to Marvel's Predator vs. Punisher, unpack Christian Ward's newly announced Pandemonium, and even talk about Ryan Gosling's surprising Ghost Rider reveal. If it made headlines at SDCC, we're giving it the full AIPT treatment. After that, David sits down with Christian Ward to discuss Forever Home, his ambitious new Oni Press series with Sami Kivelä. Ward explains how the story grew from a simple yet unforgettable premise: a house that survives climate collapse by falling outside of time, where every 20 minutes inside equals a year in the outside world. The conversation explores the book's emotional family drama, its retro-futuristic design, climate anxiety, billionaire bunkers, and why Kivelä's storytelling elevates every page. Ward also reflects on balancing writing and art, teases what's next in his career, and shares why Forever Home is one of his most personal creator-owned projects to date.

What if the weight of the world rested on the shoulders of a teenager? Join host Kevin Reid as he dives deep into the emotional and action-packed universe of Marvel's latest release, "Spider-Man: Brave New Day," on The K. B. Radio Network. This episode is a must-listen for any Marvel fan, as Reid delivers a comprehensive spoiler review that not only examines the film's thrilling plot but also unravels the intricate character arcs that make this installment stand out. From the iconic portrayal of Tom Holland as Spider-Man to the captivating performances of Zendaya and Jacob Batalon, Reid explores how each character contributes to Peter Parker's profound journey. With the haunting shadow of Aunt May's death looming over him, Reid discusses the themes of responsibility, grief, and the inevitable consequences of being a superhero. Is this the most emotionally resonant Spider-Man film ever made? Reid believes it just might be, praising the film's depth and the remarkable character development that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. One of the standout performances comes from Sadie Sink, who takes on the role of Jean Grey, bringing a fresh dynamic to the film. Reid also highlights John Bernthal's portrayal of Frank Castle, which adds layers of complexity to the story. However, he doesn't shy away from critiquing the unnecessary inclusion of Florence Pugh's character, sparking discussions on character relevance and narrative coherence. The pacing of the film and its portrayal of New York City are also key points of analysis, as Reid emphasizes how these elements enhance the viewer's experience. Unlike traditional superhero films, "Spider-Man: Brave New Day" challenges the notion of a singular villain, focusing instead on the internal struggles faced by Spider-Man. Reid's insights into this unique approach provide a fresh perspective on what it means to be a hero in a world filled with personal demons. As he wraps up the review, Reid speculates on the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, teasing the exciting possibilities that lie ahead, particularly with the upcoming "Secret Wars. "Don't miss this captivating episode of The K. B. Radio Network, where Kevin Reid delivers the ultimate spoiler-filled review of "Spider-Man: Brave New Day. " Whether you're a die-hard Marvel enthusiast or just curious about the latest superhero flick, this episode promises to be an engaging and thought-provoking listen that will leave you eagerly anticipating what comes next in the Marvel saga.

This week on Fantastic Forum, we are taking a closer look at one of Marvel's most intriguing new limited series as Spider-Man, the Hulk, and the Punisher collide in an adventure decades in the making. In the spotlight is Spider-Man: Long Way Home #1 from Marvel Comics, written by Jonathan Hickman with art by Adam Kubert. Set in an earlier era of the Marvel Universe, before Frank Castle becomes the Punisher and when the Hulk is little more than a rumor, the story follows Peter Parker, Bruce Banner, and Frank Castle as they race through the jungles of South America in pursuit of a newly created Cosmic Cube developed by A.I.M. Each man has his own reasons for wanting the artifact, but only one can keep its unimaginable power from falling into the wrong hands. With Hickman weaving together three iconic Marvel characters and Kubert delivering the dynamic storytelling he's known for, we are breaking down whether this ambitious new series is the next must-read Marvel event.

Justin has one free movie pass left before the month ends and needs to use it tonight, so Doug helps him choose between Supergirl, Disclosure Day, and Masters of the Universe. This somehow turns into a 45-minute deep dive on everything happening in Hollywood right now, and honestly, it's one of the best movie conversations they've had in a while. First: the online hate for Supergirl is examined, dissected, and found to be exactly what everyone already knows it is. Same goes for the discourse around casting in The Odyssey, the Little Mermaid live action, and Dune. The pattern is not subtle and Doug has words. Then things get genuinely interesting. Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is coming and Doug is all the way in — Greek mythology, massive ensemble cast (Matt Damon, Zendaya, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Elliott Page), and the first narrative film ever shot entirely on IMAX cameras. The IMAX conversation goes somewhere unexpected. Spider-Man Brand New Day gets the full breakdown: the Punisher's role, what the One Last Kill special means for his arc, and why having Frank Castle in a PG-13 Spider-Man movie is either brilliant or insane depending on how you look at it. Then: Avengers Doomsday. Are Doug and Justin cautiously optimistic or quietly terrified? Both. RDJ as Doctor Doom, the Jonathan Majors pivot, what the comics actually did with colliding dimensions, and why the Magneto limited series is the template they should be following. Plus, Marvel forgot Shang-Chi exists. It has been four years. Someone needs to answer for this. Also: Jared Leto — what happened? A genuine conversation about acting as a craft, why celebrity corrupts the thing that made people good at it, and how a handcrafted maple dresser at a consignment store connects to all of it somehow. Then: Doug and Justin review Backrooms (A24). Justin gives it three stars. Doug is closer to three and a half. They agree the production design is stunning, the acting is strong, the jump scares land, and the story leaves too many character motivations unresolved. A making-of documentary is urgently needed. Also also: Million Dollar Nannies on Hulu is a show that exists. Beth found it. They did not make it past the intro. And a brief, uncomfortable look at Love Island, reality TV, and why some people unwind by watching train wrecks. Movie audio clip guessing game: Justin goes three for three on Hook, Elvis (Baz Luhrmann), and Ace Ventura: Pet Detective — including a line from Ace Ventura that lands very differently as an adult than it did at age ten. This week's recommendations: Justin — Backrooms (A24). Not perfect, but worth seeing. The environment alone justifies the ticket price. Doug — Mecha Chameleon on Steam. Six dollars. Prop hunt where you paint yourself to blend into the scenery. Alpaca wants a professional digital artist league. We're here for it.

Jimmy Palmiotti has worn just about every hat in comics, artist, writer, editor, publisher, and creator, but today we're focusing on some of the stories that have defined his career and some exciting new work hitting shelves right now.Jimmy joins us to talk about his latest return to Marvel's hardest-edged vigilante in the new Punisher miniseries with artist Dan Panosian. We'll discuss Frank Castle's latest mission, the collaboration with Dan, and what makes the Punisher such a compelling character decades after his debut. We'll also dive into Jimmy's Daredevil/Punisher crossover series, bringing together two heroes whose ideas of justice couldn't be more different.Then we'll look back at one of Jimmy's most celebrated runs, his long partnership with Justin Gray on Jonah Hex and All-Star Western. From weird western adventures and horror stories to the streets of Gotham in the Old West, those books helped redefine what a western comic could be and remain fan favorites to this day.And we'll wrap up with Denver, the acclaimed creator-owned graphic novel from Jimmy and Justin Gray that's now back in print through Mad Cave Studios. We'll talk about revisiting the book, why its themes still resonate, and what it means to see a new generation of readers discover the story.
Frank Castle returns, wreaking havoc on those who got it comin' in this action-packed, one-shot special on Disney+. Co-written by the man behind the skull himself, Jon Bernthal, One Last Kill finds Frank trapped in a high-rise tenement, dispatching bad guys after a bounty is placed on his head by an enemy with a personal score to settle. On the pod, we discuss how this special fits into the larger Punisher universe first established on Netflix, break down what works—and what doesn't—and spotlight a few of One Last Kill's guest stars, including a memorable appearance by Bernthal's own daughter. We also compare key plot elements in the special to The Raid 2 and debate how this version of the Punisher might fit into the MCU proper ahead of Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
In this week's episode, Matt & Alex talk about Punisher: One Last Kill on Disney+. Matt thinks Frank Castle should incorporate more puns into his arsenal if he really wants to be the Punisher. Alex admires Frank's commitment to avoiding therapy at all costs, and they both can't believe how violent a Disney+ show has become. Find out more at https://henchmen-of-comics.pinecast.co

This week on Fantastic Forum, we are taking a look at two very different stories making waves in comics and streaming. First up is The Punisher: One Last Kill on Disney Plus, the gritty new Marvel special starring Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle. Pulled back into a war he tried to leave behind, Castle finds himself facing old enemies, unfinished business, and one final mission soaked in violence and reckoning. We are breaking down whether Bernthal's return delivers the brutal intensity fans have been waiting for and how this story fits into Marvel's darker corner of the universe. Then we turn to If Destruction Be Our Lot #1 from Image Comics, written by Matthew Rosenberg and Mark Elijah Rosenberg with art by Andy MacDonald, colors by Francesco Segala, and letters by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou. Set in a future where humanity is extinct and only the robots left behind remain, the story follows an animatronic Abraham Lincoln named Abe who begins questioning the empty routine of a machine-run world. Blending existential sci-fi and dark humor, the oversized debut explores what it means to keep searching for something more when everything else is gone.

Welcome to our show discussing The Punisher special presentation on Disney+ from Marvel studios. The Punisher aka Frank Castle is in a bad head space... and then while we are getting our head around that but while still trying to work out when this is happening as continuity is confusing... he has a John Wick style one against 1000 fight and its violent and brutal... with some dodgy CGI and then its over... This was advertised as a special and was the length of an average episode of episodic TV; yet had the plot points and story of a film / mini series... Some very odd decisions in making this BUT we discuss it and hope you all enjoy our chat!

So let's break down what we were actually trying to do with Frank Castle's character and what it was really like behind the scenes — from the action, to the weapon handling, to the story.We pulled off a miracle with almost no budget and no time, and I think we gave you one of the best projects out there. Jon Bernthal showed up and delivered everything we asked of him and more.

Geek Freaks is back with a packed episode covering the latest Lanterns trailer, the return of Westworld, new release dates for VisionQuest and Crystal Lake, and a full review of Punisher: One Last Kill. Frank and Squeaks break down what the new DC footage could mean for Hal Jordan, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, and the larger Green Lantern mythology. The episode also gets into what a new Westworld movie needs to do differently from the HBO series, how VisionQuest could bring Ultron and Wanda back into play, and whether a Deathstroke and Bane movie could actually work as a darker action comedy. The back half shifts into Punisher: One Last Kill, Dungeon Crawler Carl, network updates, and weekly recommendations. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Back in the Studio!, CCS Recap, and Convention Stories 02:35 Question of the Week: Posters and Box Art That Started a Fandom 05:08 Lanterns Trailer Reaction and Green Lantern Theories 16:25 Westworld Movie Announcement and Franchise Potential 25:00 VisionQuest and Crystal Lake Release Date Discussion 31:42 Deathstroke and Bane Movie Talk 37:26 Punisher: One Last Kill Review 44:24 Dungeon Crawler Carl, Network Updates, and Weekly Recommendations Key Takeaways The new Lanterns trailer sparked a big discussion about whether the show can balance grounded detective drama with the cosmic scale fans expect from Green Lantern. Frank and Squeaks dig into Hal Jordan, John Stewart, Guy Gardner, and the possibility that the series could explore the morality and purpose of the Green Lantern Corps. The newly announced Westworld movie has Frank excited because the franchise can work as a smaller survival story set against a much bigger sci-fi collapse. VisionQuest and Crystal Lake landing back-to-back in October could make for a huge week of Marvel and horror viewing. The Deathstroke and Bane movie raises questions about tone, especially with Greg Mottola's comedy background, but the hosts see potential if it leans into a Suicide Squad style dynamic. Punisher: One Last Kill earns praise for its action, Jon Bernthal's performance, and emotional shift for Frank Castle, though Frank wanted more story before the ending. Quotes "Some of these games are just developed by one person, and what they do with that lack of help is phenomenal." "That's the Lanterns trailer they should have released first." "I think that's the button we're going to see: what is the morality of Green Lanterns?" "We got bad taste with how the HBO series ended, but I think we all fell in love with how it started." "The action was phenomenal. The killings were great. It got straight to the point."

It's 1986 and the cereal is sugary, the TV knob is warm, and the Saturday morning cartoon wars are officially underway! Shua and Jay travel back to the golden age of animated chaos to decide which network truly ruled the weekend lineup. From Muppet Babies and Real Ghostbusters to Schoolhouse Rock and Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n Wrestling, the guys relive the cartoons, commercials, trivia, and unforgettable memories that made Saturday mornings legendary. Plus, Jay quizzes Shua on Schoolhouse Rock in a battle for educational cartoon supremacy. News Atari has officially acquired the legendary RPG franchise Wizardry, bringing the classic BASIC-coded dungeon crawler under the company's retro gaming banner.

The gritty tone was intense and the Punisher special delivered exactly the kind of brutal action fans expect from Frank Castle. Shua sampled the new Firecracker Pop Oreos inspired by the classic red, white, and blue Rocket Pops, and somehow they actually taste remarkably close to the frozen treat. They're sugary, nostalgic, and absolutely worth trying at least once for the novelty alone. Sci-Fi Saturdays - This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay focuses on the 2020 time-loop comedy Palm Springs. He explains how the movie unexpectedly became the perfect film for audiences during the COVID lockdown era, with its themes of repetition, isolation, and emotional burnout resonating in a strangely timely way. He also praises the clever writing from Andy Siara and the direction from Max Barbakow for taking the familiar time-loop concept and making it feel fresh, funny, and surprisingly philosophical. The film balances absurd comedy with meaningful emotional depth, elevating it beyond a typical indie comedy. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. This week he's added some new locations from Daredevil: Born Again season 2. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU. Enjoy Saturdays in 1986!
