This week on Unscriptify, we're joined by comic writer Cullen Bunn, the mind behind Harrow County and The Sixth Gun, and a man who's written enough Marvel and DC stories to qualify as a minor natural disaster. We talk folklore horror, cursed-object mythology, and why "fear". We also get into Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe as meta-horror, writing Magneto without turning him into a slogan, and the uncomfortable line between “understanding a villain” and accidentally making them persuasive.

Update of the Week: Daniel plays Mafia 3 and gives his thoughts on this game that is an oldie, but a goodie.   Daniel watched the new installment into the Frankenstein franchise and enjoyed it more than he previously expected. The guys discuss going into movies with lower expectations and being more impressed versus having high expectations and having a film underdeliver. Let us know your thoughts on expectations with modern day films.   Daniel also kept it in the horror genre with his review of the latest and last Conjuring film, Conjuring: The Last Rites. He describes his enjoyment of the franchise and his appreciation of what they were able to do to wrap up the final film in the series.   Andy gives us an update on the Crypto market and his concern with the value trending downwards lately.   Andy expanded his DVD collection recently and purchased several limited edition and hard to find films. The guys discuss the niche collectors who keep DVDs, VHS, and other formats alive in the collector's market.   Noel watches Wonder Man, a new Disney show in the Marvel Universe and gives his review of the newest entry into the Comic Book Universe.   Noel and Daniel talk about Stranger Things and the finale of the long running series. While Noel had some reservations about some episodes, overall he enjoyed the way the show concluded and the potential for a spinoff, based on some interpretations of the ending.   Article of the Week: Punxsutawney Phil is said to have seen his shadow, forecasting 6 more weeks of wintry weather   https://apnews.com/article/punxsutawney-phil-groundhog-day-winter-eae03abf8be74df0c48f3082e2f91905 Warning: May have Strong Language and Content.   ========== Thank you to everyone who enjoys what we do.  If you like what we do, please spread the word of our show.

In this ComixLaunch Pro Spotlight, Clay Adams talks to Randy Stone about his journey in the comic book industry, highlighting his various roles in comics creation, including writing, drawing, inking, and lettering. Randy discusses his early inspirations, starting with Marvel Universe trading cards, and his shift from aspiring artist to self-published comic book writer through Altruist Comics.

On this all-new episode of The Marvelists, hosts Peter Melnick and Eddie Wilson kick off Some Kind of Wonderful: A Wonder Man Podcast with a full breakdown of Wonder Man Season One—and they're joined by special guest Ryan Michael (follow him on social media @ryanmichaeltoon) to unpack every wonderful moment. From Simon Williams' complicated rise to fame to the show's unique blend of Hollywood satire and superhero spectacle, the trio dives deep into the themes of identity, redemption, and what it really means to be a hero in the Marvel Universe. They highlight standout performances, explore comic book connections, and speculate on where the story could go next. And in true Marvelists fashion, things get hilariously off the rails when Peter reveals that—for the longest time—he thought Wonder Man was a robot. (Spoiler alert: he's definitely not.) Ryan and Eddie help set the record straight in a lively conversation that longtime listeners won't want to miss.

This week on LMG Presents Marvel Multiverse RPG, we're hanging out with Matt and Marty Forbeck for a fun, laid-back conversation about the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game. We talk about how the game came together, what it's like designing a system set in the Marvel Universe, and some of the choices that went into making it work at the table. We also get to know Matt and Marty beyond writing what they're into, what inspires them, and the kinds of things they enjoy when they're not working on games and stories. It's an easygoing episode with plenty of insight, laughs, and behind-the-scenes talk.   Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1628612284256101/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lmgpodnetwork?igsh=YTBtMm1kd3k3a3N3   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheLMGPodcast   Hosts: Jordan Mitchell

If you've already read our in-depth feature on Joshua Williamson's Iron Man, the conversation doesn't stop there. On this week's AIPT Comics Podcast, we're running the full, uncut version of our interview with Williamson, pulled straight from the complete transcript behind the piece. It's a deeper, looser, and more candid discussion that digs into his rare position straddling both Marvel and DC, why Iron Man was the one Marvel character he couldn't pass up, and how revisiting Tony Stark's origin reframed the entire run for him. The written feature is live now—but this is the long-form version for listeners who want every insight, tangent, and behind-the-scenes detail.NEWSSal Buscema's superpower was clarityMarvel teases the end of the Ultimate Universe, and how it may be "Reborn"Full announcementSupergirl goes global: DC unites 15 countries for a new anthologyInvincible takes over Image Comics: Season 4 sparks a multiverse-wide celebration'Head Lopper' returns: Andrew MacLean gears cult-favorite for a 10-year anniversary relaunch'Lost Fantasy' ignites a new era as 'Fireborn' launches April 2026entImage Comics unveils a twisted new obsession as 'In Your Skin' blends Bollywood, body horror, and fame'Sex Criminals' is coming to Prime Video and it's about to break time (and TV)SCOOP: Oni Press goes all-in at ComicsPRO with Archie, Matt Kindt, and a wave of 2026 exclusivesOur Top Books of the Week:Dave:Absolute Batman #16 (Scott Snyder, Nick Dragotta)Spirit of the Shadows #1 (Nick Cagnetti)Alex:​​Absolute Flash #11 (Jeff Lemire, Nick Robles)Malevolent #1 (Justin Jordan, John Bivens)Standout KAPOW moment of the week:Alex: Infernal Hulk #3 (Phillip K Johnson, Kev Walker)Dave: Iron Man #1 (Josh Williamson, Carmen Carnero)TOP BOOKS FOR NEXT WEEKAlex: Magik and Colossus #1 (Ashley Allen, German Peralta), The Nice House by the Sea #7 (James Tynion IV, Álvaro Martínez Bueno)Dave: DC K.O.: Boss Battle #1 (Various)JUDGING BY THE COVER JR.Dave: Batman #6 (Julian Totino Tedesco Card Stock Cover)Alex: Storm: Earths Mightiest Mutant #1 (Dike Ruan variant)Interview: Joshua Williamson - Iron Man #1 out January 28thYou've spent years shaping the DC Universe—long runs, big swings, major characters.

What did you see in her art that made her the right partner for this specific take on Iron Man?Your tagline, “Tony Stark is the most dangerous weapon in the Marvel Universe,” is a loaded one. In your mind, what makes Tony more dangerous than gods, monsters, or cosmic tyrants?The premise echoes Iron Man's origin in a powerful way—“Tony built Tony in that cave. What if he had to go in again?” How did you think about revisiting that crucible without just retelling the origin story?Madame Masque is positioned as a central force here, orchestrating the kidnapping of geniuses worldwide. She's also currently making waves elsewhere in Marvel—especially in Venom. What drew you to her for this story, and how do you view her role in the larger Marvel landscape right now?

Issue #13 drops a massive bombshell with Ujigami's true identity being Splinter. When you decided to make him the force hunting the Turtles' enemies, what was the emotional core you wanted readers to feel first — shock, tragedy, or inevitability?2. Ujigami isn't just a villain; he's a moral crisis for the Turtles. Was your goal to make this run less about defeating an enemy and more about redefining what justice means for the team?3. In #14, the brothers split up to protect their former enemies from Splinter. That's such a powerful reversal of classic TMNT dynamics — what does this say about how the Turtles have grown since their early days of black-and-white morality?4. You've written a lot about identity and duality in your career. How did that background influence your approach to Splinter becoming Ujigami — a mentor turning into something almost mythic and terrifying?5. Shinigami's introduction brings in mysticism from the 2012 animated series. What made this moment in your run feel right for folding her into IDW continuity, and how did you retool her to fit the tone of your story?6. Your first two issues lean hard into supernatural elements — ninja mythology, death spirits, and destiny. Was that a conscious pivot from recent TMNT runs that focused more on politics and street-level crime?8. You've said the Turtles work in any genre. With Ujigami and Shinigami, you're clearly leaning into horror and dark fantasy — were there specific myths, folktales, or manga influences that shaped this arc?9. You and Freddie E. Williams II are creating some striking, eerie imagery in these issues. How did your collaboration evolve once you realized this arc would live in such a darker, more mystical space?10. With Ujigami revealed and Shinigami now in play, it feels like the table has finally been set for the larger story you and Freddie have planned. Without giving anything away, what should readers be emotionally bracing for as this arc unfolds — heartbreak, redemption, or something even more unexpected?11. If the Turtles had to explain Ujigami to April in the most “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” way possible — full of bad metaphors and half-accurate summaries — which brother would do the worst job, and what would his explanation sound like?

And as the doctors fight to keep him alive, Matt mentally resets his mission. He decides this is war with Wilson Fisk, and war requires honesty. So he tells his entire team the truth: he's Daredevil. No more secrets.  When he gets back out on the streets in his mind's version of events, he barely has time to breathe before a bone-knife-throwing assassin attacks him. And when he limps home afterward, who's waiting in his apartment? Elektra. They fall back into old patterns, but when Matt asks her to stay and join the team.  From there, Matt and his crew move aggressively—they decide to kidnap John Wesley, Fisk's right-hand man, to force him to spill how the election was rigged. The plan blows up in their faces, but somehow, they still manage to grab Wesley. They lose his guards, get attacked by more bone knives, and end up scrambling into a church for cover…where Fisk's assassin, Vigil, is already waiting. Daredevil and Elektra take him on in a brutal fight. Elektra almost kills him, Daredevil stops her, and in that split second, Vigil drives a bone knife straight into Wesley's back. The only man who could presumably tell them how Fisk did it is now dead—Elektra walks out.  While out on patrol he's ambushed by a swarm of Stilt-Men, forced into an arena, and dropped into a who's-who gauntlet of enemies—Klaw, Ikari, Electro, Gladiator, Typhoid Mary. But Matt turns the tables, manipulating the villains into fighting each other for the “honor” of killing him. It works. At least until he reaches the roof, hoping to catch his breath, and is immediately shot by Bullseye. Matt's seconds from dying again when he's unexpectedly saved…by his magically created, now-fully-real brother, Mike Murdock, who claims he can help end all of this.  Mike's intel leads Matt straight to the truth: the Mad Thinker helped Fisk rig the mayoral election. With that, Matt convinces the DA to prosecute the mayor and put Daredevil himself on the witness stand. A parade of heroes testify. Fisk slips up under questioning, admits to “adjustments,” and Fisk loses the court case and he's recalled as mayor. It's a victory…until Vigil returns. Daredevil unmasks him—and sees his own face staring back.  And that's when the illusion cracks. We realize the entire story, every moment, every battle, every twist, has been in Matt's head while he lies unconscious in the hospital. He's still fighting for his life. In the quiet between heartbeats, he sees Karen Page beside him. She tells him gently that it isn't his time. The panels go dark…until a single heartbeat rises from the silence. Daredevil isn't dead. He's choosing to fight.  In March we get the Man Without Fear limited series from writer Jed Mackay and artists Danilo Beyruth, Stefano Landini, Iban Coello, and Paolo Villanelli. It's a haunting bridge between Daredevil's fall and whatever comes next. It's a really interesting story – deserving our spotlight for this week.  In April, Volume 6 starts with a new creative team – Writer Chip Zdarsky and art by Marco Checchetto. The opening storyline is titled “Know Fear”. In it we see Matt Murdock back on the streets as Daredevil—too early, too shaky, and already in over his head. Between flashbacks of young Matt talking to a priest, we watch him struggle through patrols, botch a robbery takedown, and accidentally kill one of the thieves due to head trauma. New-to-NYC Detective Cole North zeroes in on him immediately, refusing to play the usual “look the other way” game, and soon Daredevil is shot, chased, cornered, and nearly arrested as Wilson Fisk—now Mayor—watches from a distance, thrilled to see his old enemy unraveling.  Things spiral further as Daredevil finds himself rescued—and judged—by the one man he never wants to owe anything to: the Punisher. Frank Castle drags Matt to his hideout and brutally challenges the idea that Daredevil is still a hero. A prisoner dies, blows are exchanged, and Matt ultimately escapes, injured and ashamed, just as the NYPD begins questioning Cole North's escalating methods… even while Fisk quietly rewards him for keeping the pressure on.  The breaking point comes when Matt is rescued from the Owl's men by Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, and Danny Rand—street-level peers who've been watching him self-destruct in real time. After Matt admits he accidentally killed the robber, the others acknowledge they've made mistakes too… but they also agree he's too unstable to keep wearing the mask. Matt slips away, heads home, and meets Spider-Man waiting for him on the rooftop—delivering the final gut punch: Matt's done. No more Daredevil. And if he suits up again? His own friends will stop him.  In the final full story arch of 2019, “No Devils, Only God”, Eight weeks after Daredevil “died,” Matt Murdock is trying hard to live a normal life—working as a probation officer, meeting ex-cons, even starting a romance with Mindy from the local bookstore—but the shadows keep tugging at him. NYC is shifting: Fisk is secretly beating inmates to a pulp while publicly claiming he's going legitimate, and Cole North—now targeted by dirty cops and nearly killed—is the lone detective trying to clean up a precinct drowning in corruption. As Matt finds himself drawn into Mindy's family dinner, he realizes her in-laws are the Libris crime family… just moments before a sniper attack (courtesy of the Owl) leaves one man wounded and Matt forced to intervene without revealing who he once was.  The city whispers that Daredevil is back, but Matt insists he's not—at least, not fully. He shadows crimes with his senses and quietly calls them in, plays tortured theology chess with Reed Richards, and wrestles with whether God expects him to rise again. He slips into a makeshift costume to save a runaway boy from gang life, and that taste of heroism only deepens his conflict. Meanwhile, Matt's relationship with Mindy crosses into an affair, complicating everything just as the Owl escalates his war, burning down her bookstore and pulling Matt in deeper.  When Cole North is targeted again—his partner beaten so badly he later dies—Matt can't stay retired. He joins North in the police station brawl, stopping the detective from killing corrupt officers and telling him to pin the chaos on Daredevil. As Matt slips away into the night, bleeding and conflicted, he finds Elektra waiting on a rooftop… it seems on a matter of time until Matt Murdock is putting the mask back on for real.  This Week's Spotlight: Man Without Fear Limited Series issues #1-5 from March 2019 Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway The Billion dollar question: Is the comic world just too small for both the Joker and Captain Marvel?
