n Part 2, Alex opens up about the growing role of AI in art and how it raises serious concerns for creators like himself. We also take a nostalgic turn as he shares his childhood memories of 1960s Japanese animation — Speed Racer — and his thoughts on the rise of modern American adult animation.Alex reflects on the long-overdue recognition of classic comic book creators in today's Marvel and DC films, and what it meant to meet legends like Jack Kirby and Neal Adams. We revisit the origin stories behind Marvels and Kingdom Come, and reveal a near-miss — when Alex almost helped design a new Gatchaman team for an American rights holder. And for fans of Fantastic Four, Alex shares the story behind his Earth X visions of Marvel's First Family, and how it continues to influence his creative work.

It's a boy! In Fantastic Four Annual #6 Franklin Richards, the son of Reed and Sue, is born.

The production design of the film Fantastic Four: First Steps is an homage to the early ‘60s comics created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. While Kirby is best known for his bold, fist-popping drawing style, he was also a great storyteller who redefined what comic books could be. He was appreciated by hardcore fans at the time, but he never got the same media attention as Stan Lee and wasn't compensated for the fortunes his characters made. I talk with Kirby experts Charles Hatfield, Mark Evanier, Randolph Hoppe, and Arlen Schumer about where we can see Jack Kirby's influence on comics like The Fantastic Four, Thor, The Hulk, Captain America and Black Panther. And I explore Kirby's childhood at the Tenement Museum on the Lower East Side, where every day was “clobberin' time,”and he first learned how to use a garbage can lid as a shield.

We're back! Welll, I mean, we weren't like, gone, really, just not releasing shows. We released a show! And it's a part one of two, so that means we will have released two shows! Nothing will stop us now! One Halloween, long ago, one of our Crossover episodes got religion. Or rather, the discussion about the comic that we were covering with guests Tim Price and Sean, Podcast Host and Man of Knowledge, turned to that topic without having been planned that way, and we wound up having an informative and extremely interesting discussion. You can listen to that here: https://marriedwcomics.libsyn.com/mephisto-vs-the-podcasters-three-god-dracula-and-everything-else   It was well-received by our listeners and we were complimented on how civil and non-jujdemental we came across. Since this surprised us as much as anyone, we thought we'd have them on again for a (slightly) more structured discussion. In part one, we cover the Fantastic Four: Hereafter arc, and talk about death and resurrection in comics, how aspects of the story come across when filtered through the lenses of different faiths (Including how one story element is technically blasphemous for different reasons for different religions, but only if you're really really trying to see it that way.   In Part 2, we will have a no-questions forbidden roundtable on religion, in which we compare and contrast dogma, talk about how each of our religions thinks about the other ones, and all sorts of other things that you'd think would have led to huge arguments, but didn't!  We decided to split this episode, both due to the time, and content:  part one is more comics focused and part two is more religion focused. This will allow people that are not interested in one or the other topic the opportunity to focus on the one they want. After both are published, we may publish one that includes both, for all you completists out there.

The discussion examines why having "a million monsters" often creates noise rather than signal, and explores how constraint and focus can lead to more impactful creative projects.The episode draws from the tension between Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in Marvel Comics history to illustrate the difference between creative execution and editorial vision. It explores how the elevator pitch mentality from Hollywood applies to personal artistic projects, using Star Wars as an example of how one clear core idea can anchor an entire universe. The argument centers on the principle that artistic projects need a single, easily communicable hook that people can understand and share, rather than an overwhelming collection of interesting elements.—Chapters00:00 Intro01:06 Welcome02:23 The Million Monster Problem06:11 Why Clear Signal Beats Creative Chaos16:29 The Stan Lee vs Jack Kirby Lesson28:52 Pick One Idea and Go Deeper35:40 The Analytical Takeaway37:41 The Simple Takeaway37:48 The Practical Takeaway40:39 The Philosophical Takeaway44:11 Outro—The Visual Scholar Podcast is designed to help you demystify the world of Art, Productivity, and Creativity.

Hebreos 11: 33-34, NTVHace unos meses, compartí contigo la historia de Hulk, el famoso superhéroe de Marvel, y cómo este personaje refleja las dos naturalezas que luchan por dominarnos. Sin embargo, hoy quiero invitarte a explorar un aspecto poco conocido del increíble Hulk.¿De dónde crees que provino la inspiración para crear a este icónico personaje? Uno podría pensar que Stan Lee y Jack Kirby se inspiraron en un niño malcriado o en una persona muy violenta que arrasa con todo a su paso. Entonces, imagina mi sorpresa cuando leí en una entrevista que Jack Kirby obtuvo la inspiración para crear a Hulk cuando vio a una madre levantar un vehículo para salvar a su bebé.Kirby comenta: «Su bebé había quedado atrapado bajo las ruedas en marcha de un coche. La madre estaba horrorizada. Miró por la ventana trasera y en su desesperación levantó la parte trasera del vehículo. Y de pronto me di cuenta de que todos podemos hacer eso en un momento de desesperación. Podemos tirar paredes, podemos perder la cabeza, cosa que hacemos. Ya sabes lo que pasa cuando estás enfurecido, puedes tirar la casa abajo. Y creé un personaje que hacía todo eso y lo llamé Hulk. Y todo lo que era al principio lo saqué de aquel incidente [...]. Aquella mujer demostró que, en circunstancias desesperadas, una persona ordinaria puede trascender y hacer cosas que normalmente no podría hacer. Yo mismo lo he hecho. Yo he doblado metal».*Al leer las palabras de Jack Kirby, me di cuenta de que Hulk no solo representa la ira y la violencia humanas, sino que también puede ilustrar nuestra capacidad de hacer el bien, de salvar una vida o de ayudar a alguien que lo necesita. En Hebreos 11, Pablo señala que es la fe, y no la ira o la desesperación, lo que nos capacita para realizar grandes hazañas.La fe es ese superpoder que puede convertir tu debilidad en fortaleza. Hoy no te canses de hacer el bien, «porque si no nos desanimamos, a su debido tiempo cosecharemos» (Gálatas 6: 9). Deja salir hoy al héroe que hay en ti.
