Podcast appearances and mentions of Paul Jenkins

Paul Jenkins, multimedia writer extraordinaire, is back on the Bandits to discuss his highly anticipated return to Marvel Comics, including new stories featuring two of the publisher's most complex heroes: The Sentry and Captain Marvel. Paul reflects on revisiting Bob Reynolds more than two decades after co-creating the character and less than a year after his MCU debut, explores the psychological themes that continue to make The Sentry unique, and shares insights into working with artist Christian Rosado on the latest chapter of the Golden Guardian of Good. The conversation also dives into Captain Marvel: Dark Past, examining Carol Danvers' evolving legacy, the challenges of writing powerful heroes with deeply human flaws, and the themes that connect these new projects. Along the way, Paul looks back on his celebrated Marvel career, discusses characters he'd still love to revisit, and offers fans a glimpse into this exciting new chapter of his storytelling journey.

Life can feel unfair—stress, loss, temptations, and situations you never asked for. This message shows how what you believe about God's love changes the way you face all of it. You'll learn why some people grow bitter while others grow stronger, how our own desires can quietly pull us off course, and how to tell if something is truly good or just looks good for a moment. If you've ever asked, “Why is this happening?” or “Does God really care about me?” this message will help you see your trials in a new way.

Life feels long… until it doesn't. One random moment, one weird accident, and everything can change. This message talks honestly about how short and fragile life really is, why money and stuff never feel like “enough,” and what we're actually building our lives on. If you've ever wondered, “What am I even doing with my life?” this will help you zoom out, see the bigger picture, and start making choices that matter beyond just right now.

Episode 330 – The Rise of Cage Rage with Andy Gear (Part 1)In this first episode of our Cage Rage series, the MMA History Podcast sits down with co-founder Andy Geer for a rare, in-depth look at the promotion that changed UK MMA forever.From running their very first event in a local leisure centre to landing a television deal by their second show, Andy reveals how they built a global brand on a shoestring budget. Discover the rise of British legends like Michael Bisping, Brad Pickett, and the notorious Lee Murray, who fought his final MMA bout for Cage Rage before his infamous high-profile bank heists.Learn how Cage Rage took a Brazilian fighter with a spotty Pride record in Anderson Silva and, in just two appearances, delivered the future UFC GOAT to the world. Andy shares wild stories from events 1 through 9, including bringing in international talent, chaotic early fights, Royce Gracie refereeing, political pushback, venue battles, and the raw, unfiltered energy of the early 2000s UK MMA scene.He discusses starting Cage Rage with zero experience, landing Sky TV and building an international audience, the Anderson Silva versus Lee Murray weigh-in chaos, Michael Bisping's early arrogance and rise, along with key figures like Jeremy Bailey, Mark Epstein, Paul Jenkins and more, plus the crazy backstage culture and growth pains that shaped the promotion.A must-watch for any MMA fan interested in the golden era of European MMA, UK pioneers, and the wild history behind one of the most influential promotions outside the UFC.Follow the MMA History Team on Instagram: MMA Detective Mike Davis @mikedavis632 Co Host Joey Venti @aj_ventitreRecords Keeper- Andrew Mendoza @ambidexstressSocial Media Manager Andy Campbell @martial_mindset_Thumbnails Julio Macedo @juliosemacentoInstagram https://www.instagram.com/mmahistorypodcast?igsh=aHVweHdncXQycHBy&utm_source=qrSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/3q8KsfqrSQSjkdPLkdtNWb?si=aL3D5Y3aTDi-PQZdweWL8gYouTube https://youtube.com/@MMAHistoryPodcast?si=bj1RBXTZ2X82tv_JOutro song: Power - https://tunetank.com/t/2gji/1458-powerMike - The MMA Detective - @mikedavis632 Cash App - $mikedavis1231Venmo - Mike-Davis-63ZELLE: Cutthroatmma@gmail.com / ph#: 773-491-5052 Thank You for your support

Everyone wants joy, but life is full of pain, stress, and hard seasons. So how are we supposed to have joy when everything feels like it's falling apart? This message digs into James 1 and shows that real joy isn't fake smiles or “I'm fine.” Joy is knowing you're not alone—God is with you, and His people are with you. You'll learn how trials can actually strengthen your faith, reveal what you really trust, and why staying connected (instead of isolating) can help you walk through suffering without being crushed by it.

Life doesn't always go as planned. In this message, we look at James, the brother of Jesus, and how God used scattered, stressed-out people to spread hope. We learn that being moved, shaken, or uncomfortable doesn't mean God has left us—it might mean He's sending us. James goes from doubter to strong leader after meeting the risen Jesus. His story calls us to real, everyday faith, not a double life. You'll be challenged to see yourself as a servant of Jesus right where you are—at work, at school, and at home.

Ever feel like your life is about to fall apart, but somehow it doesn't? This message explores what might really be holding things together behind the scenes. Through a powerful story about a boy, his piano, and a messy home, we talk about family, choices, and the quiet love that doesn't give up—even when you walk away. It's for anyone who feels stuck between two worlds, or who wonders if their prayers or tears even matter. If you've ever asked, “Does anyone really care what happens to me?” this is a message you'll want to watch.

We all know how to clean things up on the surface—crop the pic, fix the vibe, hide the mess. But what about the stuff underneath? This message uses real-life yard work, stubborn roots, and annoying weeds to talk about anxiety, money, success, and the hidden patterns that keep growing back no matter how often we “trim” them. You'll see why some things in your life are so hard to change, why burnout keeps returning, and why your inner world matters more than you think. It's not about trying harder; it's about letting the right Gardener work at the roots.

You've heard of the Prodigal Son, but what if the real main character is the Father? This message dives into God's love as unfathomable—not just for the wild child who runs away, but for the “good kid” who stays home, keeps the rules, and still feels empty. Whether you relate more to the partier or the perfectionist, this talk exposes the lie that you have to earn God's love. It is finished. Come hear how a Father sprints toward both sons, tears up the scorecard, and invites you into a grace‑filled party you didn't pay for.

What if you did everything “right” and still felt empty? This message dives into the older brother side of the Prodigal story—the loyal one, the responsible one, the one who never left…but low-key resents everybody else's party. We talk burnout, overachieving, feeling invisible, and the lie that you have to earn love from God or anyone else. If you're exhausted from striving, comparing, or constantly proving you're “enough,” this is for you. Discover a God who isn't a slave driver, and a love you don't have to perform for—you just receive.

Live on Purpose is a timely conversation about how we navigate life's transitions with intention rather than reaction. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Paul Jenkins, who has spent decades helping individuals and families shift their mindset, reclaim a sense of purpose, and create lasting peace—especially during seasons of change. Together, we explore why transitions often challenge our thinking, how mindset shapes our emotional and physical responses, and what the science of positivity tells us about resilience, hope, and forward movement. When life feels uncertain, learning how to lead your thoughts can make all the difference in how—and how well—you move forward.

Ever feel like you're running on empty, trying to escape your life instead of actually living it? This message dives into why we run — not just out of rebellion, but out of longing, exhaustion, and disappointment. Through the story of a runaway, we unpack regret, shame, and that moment you suddenly think, “How did I get here?” and “Can I even go back?” It's about remembering who you really are, not who your mistakes say you are, and discovering that you don't have to earn your way back to love, purpose, or home.

Dave: Iron Man #3 (Josemaria Casanovas) Alex: Superman #36 (Rod Reis) American Caper Interview: Producer & Additional Writing Lazlow, Editor Shelly Bond, and Finishes Chris Anderson 1. Dan Houser described American Caper as being fueled by his fascination with “hypocrites, sociopaths, political idiots, dysfunctional families, and violence.” When you first saw the concept for this story, what immediately stood out to you as something that felt especially relevant to the moment we're living in? 2. The series pulls together a wild mix of characters. A Mormon hitman, a gambling-addicted lawyer, escaped convicts in love, a billionaire playing cowboy. How did you approach balancing such a large ensemble so the story feels chaotic in a good way rather than overwhelming? 3. Verona, Wyoming feels like a pressure cooker where crime, politics, and personal drama all collide. What was important to you in making this small town feel believable while still allowing it to host such extreme characters and situations? 4. The book leans hard into satire, sometimes feeling like it's taking shots at every side of the political spectrum. Was there ever a concern about walking that line between satire that provokes thought and satire that might alienate readers? 5. The story's interconnected crimes and morally gray characters gave me flashes of crime epics like 100 Bullets, where one event ripples across many lives. When building a narrative this tangled, how do you keep track of the cause and effect between characters? 6. Lazlow, your background includes storytelling in massive open-world games like Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption. Did working on a comic require a different approach to pacing and structure compared to interactive storytelling? 7. (Fun question) If each of you had to survive in Verona, Wyoming for a week, which of these characters would you trust the most to have your back, and which one would you avoid at all costs?

We all love comfort—comfort food, comfort zones, and familiar routines. But what happens when comfort starts holding us back from what God has next? In this message, Paul talks about why we keep wanting to “go back to Egypt,” even when we know it isn't good for us. Using the story of Israel, seasons in the wilderness, and his own funny “pump room” memories, he shows how God grows us through uncomfortable places. You'll be challenged to stop reaching back, embrace small beginnings, and step into the new thing God is doing right now.

We're running the full, uncut interview with Christian Ward, where the acclaimed writer and artist dives deep into his upcoming project: Event Horizon: Inferno!

Dave: X-Men #27 (Gerald Parel Cover) Chris: Dead Teenagers #1 (Caitlin Yarsky's Variant) Interview: Christian Ward - FOC Mar 16th - Out - Apr 22, 2026 1. You're returning to the world of Event Horizon after Dark Descent. At what point did you know you had the green light to continue this story, and was Inferno always part of your long-term plan, or did it grow out of the response to the first series? 2. The solicitation pitches this as “Aliens meets Dante's Inferno.” That's a big swing. How consciously are you leaning into the structure or themes of Dante's Inferno, and does this story descend through its own version of circles of Hell? 3. Setting the story two hundred years after the original incident gives you a massive time jump. What does that distance allow you to explore that you could not in Dark Descent? 5.5. You have a compelling mix of characters working for the billionaire. How do you balance their personalities and backstories? Do you flesh out a cast, then go, “hmmm i'm mixing X”? 4. The idea of a billionaire assembling a private star fleet to plunder the wreckage feels very modern in its cynicism. Were you intentionally tapping into contemporary anxieties about unchecked wealth and corporate ambition? 6. The gravity drive has always been the heart of the horror in Event Horizon. In Inferno, does the focus shift more toward the metaphysical implications of interdimensional travel, or are we going even harder into physical, visceral terror? 7. Rob Carey joins you on art for this series. What does he bring visually that makes this version of Event Horizon feel distinct from Dark Descent? 7.5. Love the suits these characters wear. How do you design something that's new, but also as cool as something we've seen in a sci-fi movie before? 8. After revisiting this universe twice now, how do you personally define what “Hell” is in  Event Horizon? Is it a place, an entity, a force of nature, or something humanity carries with it into the stars?

We all crave connection, but many of us learned to do so in unhealthy ways. In the last message of our Attached series, we look at “clingers,” “stingers,” and people who've “been through the wringer,” and why relationships can feel like a war zone. Using simple pictures—a circle, a garden, boats in a storm—we see how attaching to Jesus brings real security and steady, healthy love. You'll learn how God lifts, heals, and grows you, turning fear and drama into peace and fruit that lasts.

What happens when the people who are supposed to protect you also wound you? In this message, we look at the “been through the wringer” attachment style—what happens to your heart and brain when you grow up in a war zone of mixed signals, changing rules, and emotional chaos. Using stories, humor, and John 20, we see how Jesus steps into that confusion, doesn't shame us for our struggle, and offers real peace, not cliches. If you've ever felt like you can't tell who's safe, this message is for you.

We all long to feel close, but many of us are scared of being left or being hurt again. In this message from our “Attached” series, we look at two insecure attachment styles: the “clingers” who hold on too tight, and the “stingers” who push people away. Using real-life stories, songs, and Scripture, we see how our brains learn these patterns and how God meets both types with faithful, gentle love. You'll discover that you're not stuck with your attachment style—and that with Jesus, you can grow toward a secure, healthy way of loving and being loved.

Top Cow superfan, Robb returns to talk about a weird period of Top Cow history where Silvestri and crew really had nothing new to promote besides, Inferno: Hellbound, but Wizard put a magazine together anyway. Tomb Raider, Universe by Paul Jenkins and several projects that were delayed or never saw the light of day get the spotlight.

We all crave connection—because God wired us that way. In this message, we look at how our attachments shape where our lives go. Using stories, Scripture, and even a few surprising science experiments, we explore why we need a secure base and a safe place to come home to. You'll see how God designed you for a relationship with Him and with others, why some connections help, and others hurt, and how to start letting go of the “wrong boat” so you can attach to what leads you to real healing and peace.

Many Christians treat faith like a gym membership—glad to have access, but not really using it. In this message, we learn that Jesus didn't just open the way for us to come to God; He also sends us out to help others find Him. We talk about our true identity as God's image-bearers, what it means to be “born again,” and how we are called to be ambassadors and repairers in a broken world. This isn't just about going to church—it's about being the church on mission with Jesus every day.

In this relatable and humorous message, Paul explores being created in God's image and discusses how sin distances us from Him. Using vivid analogies, like being locked out of one's own house, Paul illustrates how Jesus is the ultimate locksmith who came not just to clear our sins but to grant us direct access to God. This message encourages us to live fully in the presence of God now, instead of waiting for heaven. It's a call to embrace the vibrant, connected life Jesus makes possible, bringing us back to God's love and community.

In this message, we dive into the story of Adam and Eve and explore how their rebellion in the Garden of Eden affected us all by creating a distance between God and us. We'll discover how we were originally made in God's image and why the enemy's trick was so powerful. This isn't just a history lesson—it's about understanding how we can reconnect with God and reclaim our lost identity. Join us as we learn how to overcome spiritual distance and live in the closeness with God and others that we were designed for.

In this message, we explore the idea that we are made in God's image, which means we reflect who He is. We discuss the enemy's deception in the Garden of Eden and how Jesus came to restore us. The message encourages us to remember that everyone is created to be good and valuable, and it challenges us to see others the way God sees them, bringing hope and transformation to the world.

In this episode, we sit down with one of the defining writers of modern Marvel to talk about what's next, what still matters, and what didn't quite land. Paul discusses his two new Marvel series coming in 2026, including his long-awaited return to The Sentry, launching this March. We dig into why this new Sentry story feels necessary now, how it builds on the psychological core that made the character unforgettable, and what Paul wants to explore that he couldn't before.We also get an exclusive look at Captain Marvel: Dark Star, a story that reaches back into Carol Danvers' Ms. Marvel era to investigate an unsolved crime that has lingered in the shadows for decades. Paul breaks down why revisiting that moment matters—and how reframing the past can change how we understand Carol today.The conversation turns reflective as we revisit Paul's Marvel Knights era, including his landmark run on Inhumans—what that period at Marvel felt like from the inside, the creative freedom it allowed, and why those stories continue to resonate.And yes—we talk about television. Paul finally watched the ABC Inhumans series, and he's candid about his reaction, where it went wrong, and why adaptations miss the mark when they lose sight of character and theme. It's a wide-ranging, honest conversation about legacy, reinvention, and returning to the worlds you helped define—on your own terms.

Dive into the true meaning of Christmas with us! This message uncovers the exciting story of how Jesus, called Emmanuel, means "God with us." We'll journey from the Garden of Eden to the first Christmas, showing how God proves His goodness and love. We'll tackle big questions like, "Can we trust God?" and explore how His greatest gift, Jesus, changes everything. Discover how this awesome story is filled with hope, reminding us that God wants to be close to us and give us His best.

This message explores God's incredible plan that started in the Garden of Eden and reached a turning point with Mary's "yes" to God. It shows how God planted a seed of hope long ago, which grew quietly over years and appeared when Mary accepted her role in Jesus' birth. By comparing Eve's mistake with Mary's faith, the sermon teaches us to be ready and available for God's plans. We are encouraged to trust God, just like Mary did, and let His promises change the world through us. Will you say yes to being part of His story?

Join us as we uncover an amazing story about how a promise made long ago continues to shape lives today. "Eden's Promise" reveals how a small seed holds the key to hope, patience, and trust. Learn about the incredible journey from ancient times to now, through the story of Abraham and his son Isaac, and how it connects to an even bigger promise. This isn't just history—it's a powerful message about waiting for the right time and believing in what you can't see.

We kick off our Christmas series, "Eden's Promise," and explore the fascinating story of the Garden of Eden and its connection to the holiday season. Discover how the plan for redemption didn't start in a manger, but in a garden, full of unexpected twists and promises. We dive into what life was like before Adam and Eve's sin, and how hope and redemption were part of the plan all along.

In this message, Paul explores how true freedom and joy are found by letting Jesus into our toughest struggles. Using Paul's example in the Bible, who found joy even while in prison, we learn that freedom doesn't always mean escaping our situations but being content within them. This message will encourage you to invite Jesus into your "prisons," like fear or anger, so you can experience real freedom. By doing so, you'll begin to find joy and peace even in the toughest circumstances because Jesus is with you.

Issue 68!Behold... the Inhumans!Max and Nick talk about the 1998 Marvel Knight's classic by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee that put the Inhumans on the map!

This Day in Legal History: Statute of MarlboroughOn November 18, 1267, the Statute of Marlborough was enacted during the reign of King Henry III of England. It is the oldest piece of English statute law still partially in force, with four of its original twenty-nine chapters remaining on the books. The statute emerged from a period of intense baronial conflict and civil unrest, notably the Second Barons' War, and was part of a broader effort to restore royal authority and stabilize governance through legal reform. It reinforced the crown's prerogatives while addressing grievances raised by rebellious nobles, making it a compromise between royal and feudal powers.Among its most enduring provisions were regulations on the practice of “distress,” which referred to the seizure of property to compel debt repayment or enforce court judgments. The statute restricted unlawful and excessive distresses, requiring them to occur only with legal justification and in the appropriate jurisdiction. These reforms curtailed private self-help remedies and emphasized formal court processes, laying foundational principles for due process and the centralization of judicial authority. It also addressed issues like wardship, waste of land, and the obligations of tenants—key concerns in the feudal legal structure.The Statute of Marlborough built upon earlier reforms such as the Provisions of Oxford and Westminster, but had a more lasting legal impact. Its survival into modern times speaks to the durability of certain legal concepts, especially those reinforcing procedural fairness. Some of its language has been modernized, but the essence of its rules remains intact in English law. The statute reflects an early attempt to systematize and limit both public and private power through legal mechanisms. Legal historians often point to it as a stepping stone on the path to the English common law tradition.The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case challenging the federal government's authority to limit asylum processing at official U.S.-Mexico border crossings under the now-rescinded “metering” policy. Originally implemented under President Trump and formalized in 2018, metering allowed border agents to stop asylum seekers before they crossed into the U.S. and decline to process their claims, even when they were physically present at ports of entry. The Biden administration repealed the policy in 2021, but Trump's return to office has revived interest in reestablishing it.At the core of the case is the legal meaning of the phrase “arrives in the United States,” with the Ninth Circuit ruling in 2024 that it includes people who reach official border entry points—even if still on the Mexican side. That ruling held that federal law requires asylum seekers at ports of entry to be inspected and allowed to apply, regardless of logistical constraints like capacity. The advocacy group Al Otro Lado, which brought the lawsuit in 2017, argues the metering policy illegally circumvented these obligations, leaving vulnerable migrants stranded in dangerous border conditions.Trump's Justice Department contends that “arrives in” means actual entry, not mere proximity—using analogies ranging from Normandy to football to make its point. The administration has also signaled that it intends to resume the policy if conditions warrant. The case, which will likely be decided by June, comes amid broader efforts to restrict asylum protections globally and may clarify the limits of executive power over humanitarian migration policy.Supreme Court to review US government power to limit asylum processing | ReutersA California judge has blocked a proposed class action lawsuit involving 6,000 Black workers at Tesla's Fremont factory who alleged systemic racial harassment, marking a significant legal win for the company. Judge Peter Borkon ruled that the case could not proceed as a class action because the plaintiffs' attorneys failed to secure testimony from at least 200 workers—raising doubts about whether the experiences of a smaller group could represent the broader workforce. This reverses a 2024 decision by another judge who had previously allowed the class to move forward.The original lawsuit, filed in 2017 by former worker Marcus Vaughn, alleged pervasive racism at the facility, including slurs, racist graffiti, and even nooses in work areas. Tesla has denied allowing harassment and said it takes disciplinary action against those who violate company policy. While this ruling narrows the scope of Vaughn's lawsuit, Tesla still faces other legal challenges, including a similar case from California's civil rights agency and a separate federal suit brought by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Tesla has previously settled other race discrimination lawsuits brought by individual employees.Tesla wins bid to undo race bias class action by Black factory workers | ReutersAshurst and Perkins Coie have agreed to merge, forming a global law firm with 3,000 lawyers and $2.7 billion in revenue—placing it among the world's top 20 legal outfits by size. The merger, expected to close in late 2026 pending partner approval, will create Ashurst Perkins Coie, with 52 offices across 23 countries. The move is part of a broader trend of transatlantic law firm consolidation aimed at scaling up to serve cross-border clients more effectively.Leadership will be shared between Ashurst's global CEO Paul Jenkins and Perkins Coie's managing partner Bill Malley, who emphasized the merger's value for clients in technology, financial services, and energy. Talks began in early 2025, with both firms framing the deal as a long-term strategic alignment. Perkins Coie recently gained attention for its role in successfully challenging executive orders from President Trump's administration targeting the firm and others tied to his political adversaries. While the firms say they have no current plans to expand their office footprint, the combination signals a deepening of U.K.-U.S. legal market integration.Law firms Ashurst, Perkins Coie agree merger to create global top-20 outfit | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week looks at OpenAI's effort to expand the CHIPS Act tax credit into a broad-based AI infrastructure subsidy—and what it reveals about the government's evolving role in underwriting the AI economy. OpenAI has asked the federal government to stretch the Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit—originally designed to revive U.S. semiconductor manufacturing—to cover the entire AI stack, from servers to steel. That request arrives as data centers' energy consumption and land use start imposing real costs on local grids, budgets, and communities, raising the question: who's actually footing the bill for AI?I argue that this isn't a bailout so much as a bid for taxpayer-backed central planning, with a venture-capital gloss. AI infrastructure projects like OpenAI's Stargate centers already benefit from layers of state and local tax breaks, discounted electricity, and favorable land deals. Adding a 35% federal credit on top creates a subsidy stack that warps local priorities—school districts lose tax revenue, utilities are forced to reroute energy, and residents pay more on their bills. The public impact is mounting, even as the private benefit remains largely proprietary and insulated.Rather than offering blank checks, Congress should condition federal support on clear benefit-sharing requirements: job thresholds, emissions transparency, energy sourcing obligations, and clawbacks for missed targets. I propose a framework that makes federal aid contingent on upfront impact disclosures, co-investment in the grid, and full accounting of overlapping subsidies. Industrial policy isn't inherently bad—but without enforceable terms, we're not funding a public-private partnership. We're subsidizing a corporate buildout dressed up as a national security imperative. This is a public episode.
