With the release of Absolute Batman #15 and the big reveal of Absolute Joker, we're excited to welcome artist Jockonto the show for the first time. We would consider this comic an event even without the gnarly origin story at its center. This is also a big reunion for the artist and his writer collaborator, Scott Snyder. They've been delivering killer Batman comics since The Black Mirror, and have already re-invented the Joker concept in The Batman Who Laughs. However, the Absolute Universe allows them to swing for the fences in a way that the main continuity never could. And, as you'll hear, this required a little recalibration from Jock. Thankfully, Jock grew up consuming some of the most radical comics on the planet, 2000 AD. These Mega-City One stories, often featuring the iconic Judge Dredd, shaped Jock's imagination and taught him the unique power of a visual narrative. They also revealed why we must never be too enamored of the characters and stories we adore. Conformity is abhorrent. Toys are meant to be broken because that's the direct result of good, continuous, serious play. If you keep them precious on the shelf, they get dusty and stiff. To understand characters like Batman and Judge Dredd, we must constantly redefine them, whittling them down to their defining characteristics. We discuss with Jock how he had to recalibrate his idea of Batman and Joker before taking on Absolute Batman #15. We talk about his new 2000 AD release, The Art of Judge Dredd by Jock. We examine how 2000 AD continues to influence his work, including Absolute Joker, and how he crafts certain two-page spreads in this comic. Absolute Batman #15 is out now from DC Comics. It's written by Scott Snyder, illustrated by Jock, colored by Frank Martin, and lettered by Clayton Cowles. You can continue this conversation with Jock by following him on Blue Skyand Instagram.

We also talk about Karlos Balderas as well as Justin Pauldo's comeback knockout win over Nike Theran. Adelaida Ruiz became a world champion by defeating Alexas Kubicki.

Middleweight Tom Cowling upset Aaron Bowen, and Jimuel Pacquiao's pro debut against Brendan Lally was scored as a draw. The big fight this week is Lamont Roach Jnr taking on Isaac Cruz. We talk about all the scenarios that we see.

Jimmy welcomes first time guests Gerald von Stoddard and Frank Martin onto the podcast to discuss their current Kickstarter comic project: Love & Death on the Dark Side of the Moon. Gerald and Frank discuss their past and current collaborations and how making comics is hard, but worth it. Gerald talks about his past in theatre. This is such a great conversation and Love & Death on the Dark Side of the Moon looks and sounds incredible! Back Love & Death on the Dark Side of the Moon Follow Gerald on Instagram Check out Frank's website From the Kickstarter page: At Third Contact Comics, Frank Martin and Gerald von Stoddard have been putting their minds together to develop unique stories such as the Norse horror series Immortal Coil and the noir thriller A Thousand Cuts. Love & Death on the Dark Side of the Moon is something entirely new. More than a graphic novel, they've crafted a unique, epic, and heartfelt sci-fi experience unlike anything they have done before. Each of them has brought their own vulnerabilities, weaknesses, and heartache to this very human tale about finding love in pain and light in the darkness. In the not so distant future, the sun is dying and the best scientists from around the globe are gathered along with their families, to inhabit a research station on the far side of the moon: Helios 1. Desperate to find a solution, lead research scientist Neil Collins is tasked with overseeing the facility and its projects. As an eclipse approaches, an anomaly disrupts the entire facility. In the nursery where Neil and his wife admire their newborn baby girl, another newborn exhibits terrifying behaviour. Concerned and determined to understand this child named Nero, Neil isolates the boy, thus beginning a life of experiments and loneliness for Nero. Reluctantly, Neil allows his young daughter, Selene, to become friends and connect with Nero. Their bond grows through the years and Selene becomes his only connection to the outside world. A love grows between them while her father seeks answers to Nero's condition, all while keeping his existence secret from Earth. Many years later, Helios 1 is forced to shut down and its inhabitants are required to return to Earth. Yet not all its inhabitants return. One is forced to stay behind and confront the darkness of betrayal, heartache, and isolation.  Follow Comic Book Yeti

Swiss tenor Eric Tappy (19 May 1931 – 11 June 2024) excelled in so many different musical styles, eras, and genres, that when one considers his artistic achievement systematically, as a whole, one is positively stunned at all that he achieved, and that within a relatively short international career that extended barely 20 years. In addition, at the beginning of his career, his voice was that of a light lyric tenor, but gradually he came to sing heavier roles such as Idomeneo and Tito. The episode considers his biography and the trajectory of that career, touching upon his opera and concert work which ranged from early Baroque through contemporary. For the first ten years of his adult life, he worked as a teacher, gradually gaining enough exposure that he was able to fully devote himself to his singing career after he won several international singing competitions. Tappy is heard in the episode in concert work of Bach, Berlioz, Haydn, and contemporary Dutch composer Rudolf Escher; art songs by both Franz Schubert and Lili Boulanger; and operas by Monteverdi, Gounod, Mozart, and Debussy (his Pelléas was as legendary as his Monteverdi and Mozart impersonations). In addition, Tappy is heard in live and radio recordings of work by his fellow Swiss compatriots Arthur Honegger, Frank Martin, Constantin Régamey, and Hermann Suter. Guest singers include Countermelody favorites Ileana Cotrubaș, Rachel Yakar, Hugues Cuénod, Edda Moser, and Gino Quilico; musical collaborators include Ernest Ansermet, Michel Corboz, Nino Sanzogno, John Pritchard, Armin Jordan, Hans Münch (brother of Charles), Colin Davis, Hans Vonk, and Jean Françaix, among others. Prepare to be surprised and delighted by this great singer, who ended his active singing career at the age of only 50 but who continued as a formative and beloved teacher well into his old age. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.
