Los rumores sobre nuestra defunción han sido exagerados. Regresamos tras dos meses de ausencia con un especial dedicado al último hijo de Krypton, aprovechando el estreno de "Superman" de James Gunn que (esperamos) sea la primera piedra de un nuevo y fructífero Universo DC cinematográfico. Pero antes de hacer el correspondiente "on the road", hacemos un desayuno charlando sobre una serie de cómics relacionados con el personaje como son "Superman: Arriba, en el cielo" de Tom King y Andy Kubert, "Superman: Legado" de Mark Waid y Leinil Francis Yu y "Luthor" de Brian Azzarello y Lee Bermejo.

Batman's longtime nemesis Ra's al Ghul unleashes a plan to cull the world's population, and to ensure his success he proactively incapacitates the members of the Justice League! How does he do that? Funny you should ask! Turns out the Dark Knight Detective has been keeping files on his teammates, complete with ways to take them out! AWK-ward!

Un jetpack, Mark Waid et Chris Samnee – ComicsDiscovery S09E37 : Rocketeer, la cargaison maudite

Cette semaine dans ComicsDiscovery, votre podcast favori sur la bande dessinée américaine, on replonge dans les aventures aériennes de Cliff Secord, le célèbre Rocketeer créé par le regretté Dave Stevens. Mais cette fois, ce sont Mark Waid et Chris Samnee qui prennent les commandes du jetpack dans Rocketeer : La Cargaison Maudite, disponible chez Delcourt. Un casque iconique, un jetpack, et un héros culte : RocketeerSi vous êtes des fidèles de ComicsDiscovery, vous connaissez déjà bien Rocketeer. On lui avait consacré un épisode entier, centré sur ses origines et les histoires dessinées par Dave Stevens. Plus récemment, on avait aussi parlé de l'anthologie hommage au héros et à son créateur, signée par une ribambelle de maîtres du comics. Ce fut l'occasion d'évoquer aussi le film culte de Joe Johnston avec Billy Campbell, Jennifer Connelly et Timothy Dalton. Mark Waid & Chris Samnee : le tandem de chocDans La Cargaison Maudite, Mark Waid et Chris Samnee livrent une aventure entièrement menée en duo, accompagnés aux couleurs par Jordie Bellaire — qu'on n'oublie jamais, évidemment. Mark Waid, né en 1962, reste l'un des scénaristes les plus influents des comics américains. Il a commencé chez DC Comics en tant qu'éditeur avant de briller sur The Flash dans les années 1990, où il a insufflé une profondeur émotionnelle nouvelle à Wally West. On lui doit également l'incontournable Kingdom Come (avec Alex Ross), dont on vous a déjà parlé dans l'émission. Prolifique, passionné et érudit, Waid est un véritable architecte de l'âge moderne des super-héros. Chris Samnee, né en 1978, est quant à lui un dessinateur dont le style narratif et expressif a marqué les lecteurs. Repéré sur des titres comme Queen & Country, Captain America and Bucky ou Thor: The Mighty Avenger, il explose véritablement lors de sa collaboration avec Mark Waid sur Daredevil. Son trait épuré, inspiré des géants comme Alex Toth ou David Mazzucchelli, brille par sa lisibilité, son énergie et sa maîtrise du clair-obscur. Il a d'ailleurs reçu un Eisner Award pour son travail exceptionnel sur ce Rocketeer. Taper sur des nazis, c'est bien… mais sur des dinos, c'est encore mieuxRocketeer : La Cargaison Maudite coche toutes les cases du récit pulp qu'on adore. Waid et Samnee ont parfaitement cerné l'ADN de Cliff Secord, tout en multipliant les clins d'œil à d'autres figures cultes du genre, à la manière de Dave Stevens. Et cette fois, ils ajoutent une touche délicieusement absurde : des dinosaures qui attaquent Los Angeles façon King Kong. Voir Rocketeer affronter des reptiles géants est à la fois réjouissant et spectaculaire. Bref, si vous aimez les récits pulp survitaminés, on vous recommande chaudement cette lecture. Et bien sûr, l'écoute de l'épisode est fortement conseillée ! Pour aller plus loin dans l'univers pulp, découvrez aussi ces épisodes :

In this episode, we welcome back legendary comic book artist and writer Jerry Ordway to celebrate and discuss the 30th anniversary of his defining work on DC's The Power of Shazam! The graphic novel and subsequent ongoing series helped revitalize the World's Mightiest Mortal for a new generation, and Jerry shares the creative challenges of modernizing the classic Fawcett Comics characters while maintaining their timeless appeal and family-friendly tone. He discusses how his approach balanced the whimsical magic of Billy Batson's world with more contemporary storytelling sensibilities, creating a version of Captain Marvel that honored C.C. Beck's original vision while establishing new mythology and supporting characters. You can find Jerry's most recent work in the just released New History of the DC Universe #1 by Mark Waid. Support the show___________________Check out video versions of this and other episodes on YouTube: youtube.com/dollarbinbandits!If you like this podcast, please rate, review, and subscribe on Apple Podcasts or wherever you found this episode.

Squeaks reports from the brand-new Nintendo San Francisco store, and Barry Lyga reveals how Free Comic Book Day began, why writing Thanos kept him up at night, and what to expect from his new anthology Before the Hunt.

With the next MCU movie about to hit theaters we thought it would be a good time to read the first appearance of the team that is coming to the screen, The Thunderbolts. Or rather the team that is not coming to the screen, since the original T-Bolts have just about nothing to do with the characters in Thunderbolts*. That's okay, because the buzz on that movie is good, and we'll always have the OG group. They made their first appearance smack dab in the middle of a Hulk storyline, and knowing the big reveal of Thunderbolts #1 - this team is not a bunch of superheroes but rather the Masters of Evil in disguise and running a long con - it's shocking how obvious the truth is when looking back at this comic. These guys seem like obvious villains! But everybody was fooled. Before that we have some news, and you get a chance to hear me get the name of every comic creator I talk about wrong. Like, totally wrong, I keep wanting to credit Mark Waid with everything ever written. It's a mess, and thankfully Derek knows his stuff and can correct me. There will be no Marvelvision next week! We're taking the week off because we will have two episodes of The Bad Batch and a new Marvelvision that week, and we just don't have the energy or time to do four shows. What will we do when we come back? We're going to be watching the Cadmus Arc from Justice League Unlimited. Where do we start? I'll let Derek figure that out - I'll send out a little post about it in the days ahead.Thanks for listening! See you next time.

Surprise, friends. Grant Morrison joins the show for Superman Day! As the writer behind the seminal All-Star Superman, which observes its 20th anniversary this November, we cannot think of a better person to help us celebrate the Last Son of Krypton on his 87th birthday. Action Comics #1, featuring the first appearance of Superman by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, hit newsstands on April 18th, 1938. It is the source of everything you love about superhero comics. When Action Comics first arrived, America was in economic ruin. The world was about to enter its second great war. Despair was easily accessible, but two Jewish kids from Cleveland imagined a Man of Steel who could do the impossible and would act for those who could not act for themselves. As we look outside our windows in 2025, we see an incredible darkness, but we strive for a future beyond it. We can imitate the devils in the dark, or we can seek Superman, who reflects the best version of ourselves. Like most people, probably, we first encountered Superman through television and film; it was the All-Star Superman comics by Grant Morrison, Frank Quitely, Jamie Grant, Phil Balsman, and Travis Lanham that solidified our passion for the character. Those twelve issues showcased the joyous, awful, absurd, and adventurous universe Superman populated, making us fall in love with it and our own realm in return. As Morrison writes in Supergods, we are the stories we tell ourselves. In Superman, we see who we've been, who we are, and who we could be. We're positively chuffed to chat Superman with Grant Morrison. We discuss their approach to the character in All-Star Superman and how it differs from the version they wrote in JLA, Action Comics, Final Crisis, and other stories. We discuss the significance of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster and what it means for Grant and others to extend their great idea. We talk about Lois and Clark, Lex Luthor, Samson, and Atlas, and Grant Morrison reveals their next big comic project somewhere along the line. Continue our conversation with Grant Morrison by visiting their Website, Substack, Instagram, and Bluesky. This Week's Sponsor: 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.
