Joshua Noel and TJ Blackwell dive into the epic showdown of "Marvel vs Godzilla" and "Justice League vs Godzilla vs Kong," dissecting which universe brings the heat when it comes to giant monsters. They kick things off by comparing the 2023 DC crossover, which features a chaotic clash between the Justice League and Godzilla, to the 2025 Marvel series, where Godzilla stomps through classic superhero narratives. With a mix of witty banter and insightful commentary, they highlight how each franchise approaches the legendary Kaiju, exploring themes of power, responsibility, and the ever-entertaining spectacle of colossal battles. As they navigate through the stories, they reflect on character development, plot cohesion, and the nostalgic charm of both universes, providing listeners with a comprehensive and entertaining breakdown of these monster mash-ups. So, whether you're Team Marvel or Team DC, this episode promises to be a roaring good time!The latest episode dives headfirst into the colossal clash of titans as Joshua Noel and TJ Blackwell pit the iconic Godzilla against the superheroes of Marvel and DC. They explore the two major comic adaptations: the lively 'Marvel vs Godzilla,' which presents a series of entertaining short stories featuring Godzilla tangling with the likes of the Fantastic Four and Spider-Man, and the more narrative-driven 'Justice League vs Godzilla vs Kong.' The former is described as an anthology of fun, where Godzilla disrupts familiar superhero narratives, making for some hilarious and chaotic showdowns. The latter, however, offers a deeper storyline with the Justice League grappling with Godzilla's rampage while tackling their own dilemmas, all under the shadow of Lex Luthor's manipulations. The banter between the hosts is just as engaging as the content, with witty exchanges and light-hearted jabs that keep the conversation lively and entertaining, making for a relaxed yet insightful exploration of these two universes.Takeaways: Joshua and TJ dive deep into the epic clash of titans, comparing Marvel's Godzilla to DC's Justice League versus Godzilla and Kong, exploring unique storytelling elements.

The episode brings a humorous yet insightful perspective on the strengths and weaknesses of each comic series, emphasizing the differences in narrative styles between Marvel and DC. Listeners will appreciate the witty banter as Joshua and TJ debate the effectiveness of the character arcs within the Godzilla narratives compared to traditional superhero tales. TJ points out the intriguing moments where characters like Superman and Shazam grapple with their powers, showcasing how they handle the chaos Godzilla brings to their worlds.

This episode of Toys on Tap dives into the origins of legendary toy maker Paul Kaiju (Paul Copeland). From 1970s Chicago mornings watching Speed Racer, Kimba, and Son of Godzilla with his dad, to hunting Japanese die-cast treasures in Little Tokyo, Paul's story is pure nostalgia. The path winds through skateboarding, punk shows, and even a career in aerospace, where resin casting first sparked his sculpting journey. Blending punk art, skate culture, and Japanese vinyl, Paul built a foundation for an iconic career. This is part one of a three-episode series tracing his evolution from collector to creator.On Instagram: @paulkaijuThis Episode is Sponsored by: Empire Blisters – Your go-to source for blister packaging!

This week friend of the show Sam joins us to talk about two episodes of Generation 1. The first one is a shockingly competent, world expanding adventure starring an underappreciated character. The other is maybe the worst single episode of G1 we've sat through thus far. In conclusion, Kremzeek is a land of contrasts. This Datatrack contains discussion of the following topics; The Book of Boba Fett, a slur so old timey it barely registers, Bosch, this show having three voice actors, Astrotrain's miserable life, Megatron's horrible son, accents so racist they loop around into being something else, Tokusatsu episode titles, and [INFORMATION WITHHELD TO AVOID GETTING THE DISCORD SUBPOENAED].

Join Ralph as he spotlight one of the many classic Green Lantern Stories from the pass. On this episode, he'll be taking a look at Showcase #22, which was the first time Hal Jordan appeared in the comics and ushered in a bold new era of Green Lantern! This year marks the 66th anniversary of this iconic story!

From the historic Texas Theatre in Dallas, TX, KAIJU GO! 2025 included a memorable interview with famed Godzilla and kaiju illustrators, print makers, toy designers, and all-around good people - TOM WHALEN (Lancaster, PA) and ATTACK PETER (Miami, FL). The interview is hosted by another great kaiju artist and YHS on Monster Island co-host, JACOB WALSH (Valdosta, GA).

Episode 992- Jason Interviews James Aquilone - MONSTROUS: THE KAIJU ISSUEcomic magazine is celebrating Godzilla's 70th anniversary with kaiju comics, short stories, artwork, and articles.  MONSTROUS: THE KAIJU ISSUE features a stacked line-up including:“The Colossus From the Crater,” a brand-new sci-fi short story set on a remote moon and featuring a giant alien mummy, penned by novelist Greg Cox, who wrote the official prose adaptation of Godzilla (2014), soon to be reprinted in a new omnibus edition.An all-new Konga vs. Gorgo comic, featuring the creatures from the cult 1960s American International Pictures movies and Charlton Comics, written by James Aquilone and illustrated by Dave Swartz (Confederate Monster)Two iconic covers — a Konga vs. Gorgo cover by Larry Tuason (Knightingail: The Legend Begins) and a MegaSquatch cover by EV Cantada and colorist Zac Atkinson. Just like these creatures themselves, this new magazine will be enlarged to a full-size 8.5-x-11-inch format. It was previously digest size, so this is certainly an upgrade. Bram Stoker Award-winning editor and writer James Aquilone, who heads up Monstrous Books, had this to say about it:“When I decided to do a Kaiju issue of Monstrous Magazine I couldn't pass up the opportunity to do a Kaiju-size magazine, so we're going from 5.5 x 8.5 to 8.5 x 11 inches. And that's just the beginning. We're resizing the  Monstrous Magazine back issues, too, and now, for a limited time, they will be available in the new collectible, oversized Kaiju format.”Back It: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/manbomb/kaiju?ref=3chte9Theme Songs by Drew: Pages of Terror & Dubstep Kaiju RemixLike & Subscribe on Youtube www.youtube.com/@comicsforfunandprofit5331Patreon https://www.patreon.com/comicsfunprofit Merch https://comicsfunprofit.threadless.comYour Support Keeps Our Show Going On Our Way to a Thousand EpisodesDonate Here https://bit.ly/36s7YeLAll the C4FaP links you could ever need  https://beacons.ai/comicsfunprofit Listen To the Episode Here: https://comcsforfunandprofit.podomatic.com/

[SNW307] Join jaQ` and returning Special Guest Grayson to finally answer the question What is Starfleet? as we cover Star Trek: Strange New Worlds season three, episode seven.

Early on in Tillie Walden's Clementine: Book Three, which represents the concluding chapter in her The Walking Dead trilogy, an expectant mother grabs our hero's arm and gasps through the pain, “It'll never end.” She's so right, and we should all take those words to heart. Pain is never done with you. Run if you care to, but the worst life has to offer will always find you. The trick is acknowledging your relationship with it and fortifying yourself as a means of surviving until you don't. Pain never ends. You will. Find your community and love them while you can. We've adored Tillie Walden's comics for quite some time. One of our earliest episodes was a deep dive exploration of her exceptional science fiction teen romance, On a Sunbeam. Her work is deeply personal, and Clementine: Book Three is no exception, with the narrative extending from recent events in her life. In today's podcast, we dig into the Clementine trilogy with Tillie Walden. We discuss how she finds herself in Clementine and how Clementine may find herself in Tillie. We talk about The Walking Dead franchise, how Clementine evolves from the Telltale game, and why horror is the most emotionally honest genre. Clementine: Book Three is written, drawn, and lettered by Tillie Walden. Grey Tones by Cliff Rathburn. All three books are now available from Skybound Entertainment and Image Comics. Follow Tillie Walden through her website and Instagram. This Week's Sponsors We're sponsored by 2000 AD, the greatest comic you're not reading! Within its pages is a whole universe of characters, from Judge Dredd and Strontium Dog to Rogue Trooper, Shakara, Halo Jones, and the poor sods slogging across the Cursed Earth in The Helltrekkers.

That's 128 pages of incredible monthly comics for less than $10. Do you want in on the biggest secret in comics today? IDW Publishing's Godzilla line of books is comics' greatest secret weapon. They're constantly snagging rockstar creators like James Stokoe, Tom Scioli, Andrew MacLean, Louie Joyce, Jake Smith, Eric Powell, Rosie Knight, and Oliver Ono to unleash their talents on cinema's most significant kaiju universe. And this July, IDW is taking their Godzilla books to the next level by introducing the Kei-Sei era. This new shared universe line begins with Godzilla #1 by Tim Seeley and Nikola Čižmešija. There's a new Godzilla design, a mess load of Kaiju antagonists…and protagonists - plus, superpowered human characters. Thanks to IDW Publishing, it's a good time to be a fan of the Big G and quality comics.

Devin & James are back in the Den to celebrate the 50th anniversary of some fantastic and influential films coming from Asia in 1975! We start with one of our favorite monsters in the Kaiju classic THE TERROR OF MECHAGODZILLA! We then take to the streets with Kinji Kukasaku's brutal yakuza tale COPS VS. THUGS. Then things get more kung fu classical in the origin story of one of cinema's coolest weapons, THE FLYING GUILLOTINE. After that, we hop on THE BULLET TRAIN (No, not the Brad Pitt one. The Sonny Chiba one!). Our cinematic traveling continues down under with the Australian/Chines co-production, THE MAN FROM HONG KONG. From there, we go completely off the rails with the cinematic cotton candy that is SUPER INFRAMAN. Finally, we get a taste of horror (and some other things we'd rather not mention here) in BLACK MAGIC. All of these films are from Japan or China, but we make sure to check in on the rest of the continent with shout-outs to YEONG-JA'S HEYDAYS out of Korea, THE RARE BLUE APES OF CANNIBAL ISLE from Malaysia, the Bollywood classic SHOLAY, and DERSU UZALA, the Academy Award-winning Russian film directed by Akira Kurosawa!

Toward the end of our conversation with Matt Fraction, he mentions how his upcoming Batman book with Jorge Jiménez represents where his Hawkeye series would have gone if he and David Aja had continued. What does that mean, exactly? It's complicated, and you'll just have to listen to this week's podcast to fully understand. And that's what we call in the biz, a big ol' tease. Our chat with Matt Fraction concludes our San Diego Comic-Con International coverage, and we're so frickin' excited that we get to do so with this writer and this creation. As longtime listeners know, Batman is one of our boys, and the character has never been in as many good hands as he is right now at DC. Beyond this new Batman relaunch with Fraction and Jiménez, we have stellar titles in Absolute Batman, Batman and Robin, Batman and Robin: Year One, Batman: Dark Patterns, and probably a half dozen books we're forgetting about at this moment. Batman, created by Bill Finger and Bob Kane, first appeared in Detective Comics #27, published on March 30th, 1939. The character's longevity makes him indestructible. He won't break, no matter what Matt Fraction and Jorge Jiménez do to him. This comes with tremendous freedom, allowing Fraction and Jiménez to throw everything of themselves into the character, and their longevity on the line will ultimately be determined by us, the readers. Having read the first two issues in the new series, we can happily report that Matt Fraction and Jorge Jiménez's take on the character is very much our jam, and rather unique from the other excellent flavors you can find on the stand every month. Their Batman operates in a semi-one-and-done structure, embracing the medium of comics while still satisfying those who crave long-haul storytelling. Mostly, it's a fun as hell ride that looks slick. These are superhero comics that are not afraid to be superhero comics. They're damn proud of it, in fact. However, before we dive into all the Batman talk with Matt Fraction, we must regale you with our recent comic shop road trip to Richmond and Virginia Beach, Virginia. We did it, gang. We've already completed our mission to visit fifty comic book shops in fifty-two weeks. We've learned a lot from this experiment, and we need to discuss both the wonderful and not-so-wonderful aspects we've observed in these stores. Strap in for some serious retail talk.

The great thing about the zombie sub-genre is that every time you think it's played out, a new creative team arrives to inject some fresh life into it. Everything Dead and Dying, the new Image Comics series by Tate Brombal and Jacob Phillips, imagines the last living farmer on the planet, sitting satisfied on his homestead, surrounded by his dead and rotting loved ones. The corpses he once called friends and family are trapped in the routine of their last living day, performing mundane tasks such as delivering the mail and receiving a bedtime story. If he squints hard enough, the farmer, Jack Chandler, can soldier on as if each new day is as good as the old ones were. Everything Dead and Dying is a deliciously, satisfyingly sad zombie story, and like the best entries in this sub-genre, it has a lot on its mind and heart. The first issue is easily one of our favorites of the year, and demands attention from those already fond of walkers or those who'd rather avoid them. Brombal and Phillips have constructed a perfect zombie gateway comic. Having recently visited the Monroeville Mall in Pittsburgh, the site where George R. Romero shot the classic Dawn of the Dead, we were eager to chat with Tate Brombal and Jacob Phillips about what drew them to this particular story engine. What do the undead offer us as metaphors, especially in a culture so near its own global catastrophe? On this week's podcast, we discuss their connection to zombies, why they previously never considered contributing to the sub-genre, and how Jacob Phillips built an entire town from scratch. Final Order Cutoff for Everything Dead and Dying#1 is Today (8/11), so call your comic book shop asap so you won't miss out on reading this story when it arrives on September 3rd. Make sure you're following Tate Brombal on Blue Sky and Instagram, as well as Jacob Phillips on Blue Sky and Instagram.

For the past year, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise has been as exciting and essential as DC's Absolute Universe or Skybound's Energon Universe. Writer Jason Aaron and artist Juan Ferreyra have built an unmissable monthly comic, not to forget the numerous other splinter titles and crossover minis. Shortly before San Diego Comic-Con International, The Hollywood Reporter announced Aaron and Ferreyra's departure, and we were a little heartbroken. Their time on the book was too brief, but if they must go, the news that cartoonist extraordinaire Gene Luen Yang and lifelong Turtle maniac Freddie E. Williams II eased the pain some. One of our missions for this year's San Diego Comic-Con was to return with more news regarding the TMNT baton pass between Aaron and Ferreyra and Yang and Williams. After moderating IDW Publishing's “The New Era of Turtle Power” panel, we retreated to the Hilton Bayfront, where we had a lengthy conversation with Gene Luen Yang about his passion for the Turtles and how he would apply it to the series, starting with issue thirteen. Also discussed at San Diego Comic-Con, Andrew Joustra, the script coordinator for the animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, will write an arc for the newly announced Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series, bringing the iconic Fugitoid character to the latest iteration of the TMNT universe. As passionate fans of Fugitoid ourselves, we had to trap Joustra in a media room for a deep dive into his take on the character and why he put so much of himself into the troubled fugitive android. Today, you get two podcasts for the price of one. With Gene Luen Yang, we discuss where we find the Turtles when his story begins, how they've grown throughout the Jason Aaron and Juan Ferreyra run, and why a certain new antagonist was necessary for his story. With Andrew Joustra, we explore the Fugitoid concept, his relationship with the Turtles through the various franchise incarnations, and why this story is so deeply personal. Be sure to follow Gene Luen Yang on his website, Blue Sky, Instagram, and TikTok. Also, follow Andrew Joustra on his website, Blue Sky, and Instagram.

Should Chip Zdarsky's promotional magazine, Zdarsky Comic News, win an Eisner at this weekend's San Diego Comic-Con International ceremony? We brought the question to him directly, and as you'll hear, he rejected the whole notion of a nomination extremely quickly. Zdarsky is having a ball working on his free periodical every month. He puts tremendous time, energy, and thought into each issue. Still, as far as the category of Best Comics-Related Periodical/Journalism is concerned, he wants someone else to take home the statue, and “knows” that someone else will take home the statue. We shall see the results very soon. Zdarsky Comic News began as a lark, as most things with Chip Zdarsky do. He turned his back on social media, adamantly believing it served no positive purpose, especially when it came to promoting his comics. Zdarksy Comic News' primary mission was to inform folks in comic shops about what he was working on and give them a little chuckle in the process. Since the first issue, however, Zdarsky Comic News has become its own unique monster. The cartoonist is slowly building a staff around himself, and it's time to decide whether or not to kill the beast or let it grow into something larger and more significant. Through advertising, Zdarsky Comic News pays for itself, but it might need a little more to become the next Comics Journal, or its evil stepbrother. Shortly before the 2025 Eisner Awards, we spoke with Chip Zdarsky about his free pamphlet, and that's all we talked about, which seemed to surprise him. If you want more Captain America talk or Public Domain conversation, you'll have to go somewhere else. We were only interested in Chip Zdarsky's mad side-hustle and what he thinks about the current state of comic book journalism. You can find Zdarsky Comic News at your local comic book shop, and you should also consider subscribing to Chip Zdarsky's Substack.
