We took this time to have a little comic swap/mart in the driveway of That Comic Smell's home. It was one of the few times we had seen each other in person. Mike had been gifted various longboxes with A LOT of comics. They were predominantly DC titles and after we had met, had a good laugh and picked our way through them all, we went back home, read a bunch of them and discussed it over Skype. This is a little blast from the past and some things that are discussed may be long past now but it just gives us a little glimpse into a time where we were still trying our hardest to stay connected with friends and loved ones. It's also where we got free comics and showed them off! This and all the usual comics chat on… That Comic Smell!

Welcome to a very special episode of the show! As you know, typically I cover a lot of crazy comics, and most wouldn't be considered groundbreaking by most. I decided to not just cover a seminal comic book, and break away from the more bizarre side of the medium, but I also brought a guest on that loves and creates his own comics! Please welcome my friend Javon Stokes to the show! Javon is a creator and podcaster that is one of the hardest working people I know in the industry, and I couldn't wait to talk to him about this great DC Silver Age story, The Flash of Two Worlds! Gardner Fox, Carmine Infantino, and Joe Giella do a fantastic job with this story, and it opened up a whole new world for the rest of the DC universe.  As usual, you can send any feedback to the show through email at Magazinesandmonsters@gmail.com or to the FB page or to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious. You can find Javon on FB (Visually Stoked Media), on Twitter @jstokesstudios or on his website Visuallystoked.com (definitely give his work a look, as it's something he's very passionate about, and he loves the comic book medium)!

Some couples have bumpy starts, but Dinah Drake Lance and Oliver Queen put anyone's awkward first encounters to shame. Hailing from two separate universes and with one dead husband lying between them, Black Canary and Green Arrow require some serious me-time before securing their romantic solidarity, but that doesn't stop Ollie from making his move while poor Larry Lance is barely cold in the ground. We begin our four-episode series investigating the Black Canary/Green Arrow romance by exploring their "meet-cute," which is anything but. Writer Denny O'Neil transformed the two golden-age backup blahs into two bronze-age must-haves, elevating their interior lives into grand adventures equally as compelling as any supervillain fist-fight. Aiding our understanding of Dinah and Ollie's cumbersome bond is our new love expert, Megan Lundgren, and her self-help guide, Relationship Book for New Couples: Proven Strategies to Nurture Your Connection and Build a Long Lasting Bond. Issues covered in this episode: Justice League of America 74 - 75 and 78 - 79, published by DC Comics between September 1969 - March 1970, as well as Green Lantern/Green Arrow 78 published in July of 1970. All the comics are written by the late great Denny O'Neil, and they're penciled by Dick Dillin and Neal Adams, inked by Sid Greene, Joe Giella, and Frank Giacoia, and lettered by John Costanza.

Greetings, comic strip enthusiasts! In this episode, Worthiteers Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) peer into the salacious world of Santa Royale when they read a run of Mary Worth comic strips from 2006  by Karen Moy and Joe Giella! After picking apart the history of Mary Worth, and detailing this strip's trappings, they read every daily strip from July 2 to October 17, 2006, in which a new person moves into the neighborhood–and Mary Worth's life! Then, our newsies talk about other times comic strips tackled subjects taken from the headlines of the day, and even reveal a current storyline in Funky Winkerbean, which has yet to be resolved (as of this recording!) It's a real nail-biter, you don't want to miss it! weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com @cosmictmill chrisisoninfiniteearths.com

"Holy 68-pages, Batman!" Our panel dives into ADVENTURE COMICS #462 (1979) with 5 features including the death of the Earth-Two Batman by Paul Levtiz and Joe Staton; the Flash by Cary Bates, Don Heck, and Joe Giella; Deadman by Len Wein and Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez; Wonder Woman by Jack C. Harris and Jack Abel; and Aquaman by Paul Kupperberg, Don Heck, and Robert Allen Smith.

Since his first appearance in the pages of Detective Comics #27, Batman has cast a massive shadow over pop culture. We'll revisit the history of the character, from his pulp noir beginnings to his breakthrough moments on TV and in film that made him a global superstar. Our first episode looks at the comics, and the legendary artists and writers who built the Batman mythos. Featuring interviews with Neal Adams, Jim Lee, Frank Miller, Steve Englehart, Joe Giella, Becky Cloonan, Jim Starlin and more!

Detective Comics 348 Cover date February 1966 Cover Price 12 cents Cover Artist: Joe Kubert and Ira Schnapp Edited by Julius Schwartz “Birdmaster of Bedlam!” Writer Robert Kanigher, Artist Sheldon Moldoff and Joe Giella in which Batman and his Buddy battle a be-turbaned birdbrain! When a plane carrying Miss USA crash lands after it is attacked by wild birds (killing her in the process), Batman and Robin soon become aware of a sinister plot by a criminal known as the Birdmaster who plans to hold the world ransom by sending out armies of trained birds to attack any planes in the sky. Traveling to the Birdmaster's castle base, the dynamic duo battle the Birdmaster and his minions, forcing the Birdmaster to flee. In a stroke of irony, Birdmaster escapes in a plane that's attacked by his own birds, forcing a crash land and causing the criminal's death. “My Wife, the Witch!” Writer Gardner Fox, artist Carmine Infantino & Sid Greene in which the stretchable sleuth and his sexy sidekick sidle up to Salem – errr, Malem! When Ralph and Sue Dibny arrive at the Pine Beach Hotel in the town of Malem, they find that their reservations have been lost. The only room the hotel has available is said to be haunted, but the Dibny's take it anyway. The next day, Sue finds a book of spells. When she tries the first two, the magic works. She then sends Ralph to the store for the materials she needs for the third spell. Ralph arrives at the store and stumbles upon a robbery. He apprehends the gang, but not the gang boss who planned the crime. Ralph suspects the hotel manager and tricks the man into a panic. When the manager flees, Ralph catches him. The manager used the phony magic story to trick Ralph into capturing his gang, so that he could keep the loot for himself. Public Service Announcement Theatre: Buzzy Says – Old People are People Too!

We're back! In the thick of the 1966 Batman boom, Ledger Syndicate and DC debuted a new Batman comic strip. Written by Whitney Ellsworth and drawn by Sheldon Moldoff (and, in turn, by Carmine Infantino and Joe Giella), the early strips seem to want to simultaneously imitate the 66 TV show, and differentiate itself from it. In this episode, we talk about IDW's collection of the early strips in Batman with Robin: The Silver Age Newspaper Comics Volume 1 (1966-1967), including the schizophrenic quality of the strip, where the strip succeeds, and where it falls short. Plus, the mahalo.com guitar tutorial version of the theme, and your mail on the Stanley Ralph Ross interview (and the infamous Gemini 8/Catwoman incident!).  

In this episode, Jay and Mike recommend "I Kill Giants" and "Darth Maul," and then we flash back to a classic, bizarre comic, as the Justice League must deal with Snapper Carr: Super-Traitor! Finally, we play a game of "Super-Mundane" and ask which heroes would be the best and worst bus drivers? Also, a warning: this episode was recorded late at night, and things got a little loopy... enjoy!    Pull List:  Jay: “I Kill Giants" (Image Comics), written by Joe Kelly, art by J.M. Ken Niimura.  Mike: “Darth Maul" (Marvel Comics), written by Cullen Bunn, art by Luke Ross.    Main Segment:  “Justice League of America" #77 - "Snapper Carr - Super Traitor!" (DC), written by Dennis O'Neil, pencils by Dick Dillin, inks by Joe Giella.    Game: "Super-Mundane - Who would be the best and worst bus driver?"    Listen to full episodes at PartialArc.com  Email us at becausecomics@gmail.com, and find us on Twitter at @partialarc  Read Mike's columns every Tuesday and Thursday at PartialArc.com, and follow him on Twitter at @supergeekmike
