C'était l'évènement de ce début de mois de mai : à l'occasion du Free Comic Book Day 2026, la librairie Album Comics recevait en ses murs le grand Chris Claremont. Si les X-Men ont été imaginés par Stan Lee et Jack Kirby, il n'est pas usurpé d'attribuer également à Claremont le titre de "papa" des mutants, tant son oeuvre est importante et indissociable de ces personnages. Un run iconique de plus de seize ans, d'autres retours sur ces héros, et encore aujourd'hui, Chris Claremont a l'occasion de revenir de tant à autres sur certains des personnages qu'il aime tant. Chris Claremont est sur First Print !À l'occasion de son passage, nous avons donc profité de l'occasion pour aller à la rencontre du scénariste - et conduire une interview à retrouver en complément de celle que nous avions déjà otbenue de lui en 2019. De quoi revenir sur ses débuts, mais surtout de son cheminement dans la construction de sa grande saga X-Men jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Une interview que vous pouvez aussi retrouver à l'écrit sur Comicsblog.frsi vous n'êtes pas anglophone.Remerciements à Gauthier d'Album Comics.Mine de rien, Claremont vient s'ajouter à une liste d'invités aussi divers que prestigieux au sein de notre podcast, et nous sommes fiers de pouvoirs accueillir tant de personnes talentueuses et de vous faire profiter de ce qu'ils ont à raconter. Si vous appréciez le travail fourni, il est important de le faire savoir et de le valoriser, en partageant ces podcasts, en en parlant autour de vous, à vos proches, vos collègues, à vos lecteurs (si vous êtes libraire), à un maximum de monde pour que le comics trouve sa place légitime dans les discussions autour de la bande dessinée. Vous pouvez aussi nous soutenir via notre Tipeee !Soutenez First Print - Votre podcast comics (& BD) préféré sur TipeeeHébergé par Ausha.

Nine years. 213 episodes. Dallas and Celeste are marking Comm Talk's anniversary by looking back at how it all started — including a hosting disaster that nearly wiped out the first 13 episodes of the show. Plus, Free Comic Book Day just happened, and it's not quite what it used to be. Dallas and Celeste break down the books they picked up — from Mega Man and Street Fighter to Avatar Legends and a Webtoon crossover into print — and dig into what's actually going on with comic distribution right now. What's been the best part of nine years? What almost broke the show early on? And what do you want to hear more of? Tune in — and let them know.

Peter and Eden kick off a chaotic week — Eden's dealing with the Shiny Hunters ransomware attack on Canvas (the university LMS that runs basically everything, currently being held hostage for the second time) while Peter is just weary from step counts. The bulk of the episode is a genre-spanning music deep dive: Eden assigns four critic-darling albums neither of them would normally reach for (Robyn, Ella Langley, Wendy Eisenberg, and Mandy Indiana), Peter assigns one desert-island pick Eden hasn't heard yet. Between the new releases, a Diablo 4 expansion, Cobalt lore, and the Dungeon Crawler Carl comic selling out on Free Comic Book Day, it's a very full episode.SHOW NOTESCanvas Ransomware Crisis — Eden, who works in university IT, breaks down the Shiny Hunters attack on Canvas, the dominant learning management system used by ~54% of schools. The attackers took the platform down twice, demanded ransom, and threatened to release data from 9,000+ schools by May 12th. Eden spent Free Comic Book Day week in Zoom calls, prepping faculty for a likely third outage.New Metal Releases — Peter covers recent drops: new Sevendust (pretty okay, Lajon Witherspoon sounds great), Draconian's Insomnolent Ruin (gothic death-doom, better than their 2020 album), and a Testament remaster of Practice What You Preach — which apparently had notoriously bad 80s mastering on every prior version.What Else Peter's Been Into — Currently watching The Good Place (season two, laughing out loud), reading the new MurderBot novella System Collapse (more existential ennui, building toward a Preservation vs. Barishastranza showdown), and very much hooked on Vampire Crawlers, a $10 roguelike deck-builder with a dungeon crawl structure that he calls at least as good as Slay the Spire.Free Comic Book Day at Eden's Shop — The comic shop where Eden works had its best day ever — beating last year's record by ~$3K. The Dungeon Crawler Carl issue zero sold out by 11:15 AM and was flipping on eBay for $30+. Eden's boss is now planning to order ten copies of the forthcoming OGN.Eden's Media Check-In — Went back to Wuthering Waves (best combat of any free-to-play open world; Cyberpunk Edgerunners crossover incoming), read They Were Eleven by Moto Hagio (70s shoujo sci-fi, recently translated, thoroughly recommended), and briefly installed/uninstalled Neverness to Everness after the devs were caught using AI-generated assets and their "replacement" assets were also AI-generated.The Music Listening Project — Robyn, Sexistential — Eden's clear favorite of the four assigned albums. Robyn's first album in eight years sounds like Body Talk Part 4, which is exactly what she apparently aimed for. Both hosts agree it goes down smooth and does exactly what dance-pop is supposed to do. Peter's pick of the bunch.Ella Langley, Dandelion — Peter's least favorite ("I fucking hated every note on this shitty ass shit album"), not softened much by the 19-song runtime. Eden also wanted to like it more than they did. Peter's wife, who has a master's in vocal performance, concurred on the voice. Both prefer Kacey Musgraves's Middle of Nowhere, which dropped right after Eden finalized the listening list.Wendy Eisenberg, self-titled — A folk/chamber-folk record Eden found genuinely enjoyable, especially in quieter guitar-forward moments. Peter couldn't get past what he describes as chronically unsupported vocals (no diaphragm engagement). Mid-episode, Eden Googles and discovers Wendy uses they/them pronouns — quick correction mid-stream.Mandy Indiana, URGH — Noise rock with French lyrics; alienating by design, and for once that assessment is meant charitably. Peter could see putting it on if he just wants sound, not music. Eden started strong but felt bludgeoned by the end. Album art apparently smears skulls and faces across the screen in real time — which tracks.Cobalt, Slow Forever (2016) — Peter's desert island pick, his most-listened album of the last two years. Eden had never heard it and came away genuinely impressed. Peter gives a brief history: Cobalt's Gin (2009) as foundational American black metal, the band's turmoil around the previous vocalist's behavior, Charlie Fell (of Lord Mantis) stepping in, Eric Wunder doing all instruments himself, and the resulting pivot from black metal to progressive sludge with blackened overtones. Peter closes with a passage from "King Rust." Eric Wunder passed away earlier this year — Slow Forever as a final statement.

Well, this is a surprise. Todd McFarlane returns to the podcast to discuss why he's suddenly switching up the creative rosters on several Spawn universe titles. Starting with issue 376, friend of the show Matthew Rosenberg will script alongside artist Stephen Segovia. Roseberg will also serve as writer on the sibling series, King Spawn, with Thomas Nachlik on art. In Gunslinger Spawn #54, writer Erica Schultz joins returning artist Carlo Barberi. And starting today, She-Spawn #1 launches with Gail Simone as writer and Ig Guara as artist. He's said it before, and he states it emphatically on this week's show: Todd McFarlane sees Spawn as his creative child, and as all parents want for their kids, Todd hopes to see him live long after he's gone. To secure that reality, he needs to let go of the reins. So, today, he's reflecting on his favorite comics and how regime changes propelled those books into legend. Before all that, however, we banter back and forth about this past weekend's Free Comic Book Day, and the awe-inspiring Charity Sketch Cover Auction Four Color Fantasies pulled off on Saturday, raising nearly $12,000 for the Literacy Volunteers of the Winchester Area. We discuss how we took that radical energy and moved it into our Comic Book Club on Sunday, and then work both events into the theme of community and how it bolsters the comic book industry, which leads directly into what Todd McFarlane is doing with his baby, Spawn. This week, it's all about the power of comics. Todd McFarlane details why he's always happy to have others play in his playground, how he still has an ending for Spawn even though he never wants to use it, and why there are nuances to that tired artist vs. writer debate. Spawn #376 arrives in shops from Image Comics on June 3rd, with Final Order Cutoff happening this upcoming Monday, the 11th.  If you want to continue our discussion with Todd McFarlane, you can find him on BlueSky and Instagram, as well as his Website.

This episode is also a look ahead to FREE COMIC BOOK Day, including an on-the-spot layout alteration suggested by Dal that we're going to try and implement (because Patrick had an additional idea later that night that we're also planning to implement). We say it here and wind up doing it less than a week later!---------- Contest of Challengers #778 This episode is dedicated to the Chicagoland Independent Bookstore Alliance.
