Episode 37 - Murdock and Marvel: 1993 Part 2 There are arguments to be made that this was the best year in the history of comics. There are also a number of ways in which it may have been the worst. In any case, it was not boring. Welcome to 1993, the year everything that has been building for the last decade or so comes to a head. This is part 2 of the podcast. that will feature the year in Daredevil, the Spotlight story and the Takeaway for 1993. The Year in Daredevil Appearances: Daredevil #312-323, Daredevil Annual #9, Daredevil: Man without Fear #1-5, Fantastic Four #373 and #378, Slapstick #4, What If…? #47, #48 and #55, Ghost Rider #36, Marvel Comics Presents #129 and #136, Doctor Strange, Sorcerer Supreme #55, Thor #464, Punisher War Journal #57 and #58, Web of Spider-Man #106, Alpha Flight #127, Marc Spector: Moon Knight #57, Infinity Crusade #1-6, and Marvel Masterworks #25 Writing: Dan G. Chichester (312-323) Pencils: Scott McDaniel (312-315, 317-323), Kevin Kobasic (316) Inks: Bud LaRosa (312-317) LaRosa and Greg Adams (318), Hector Collazo and Harry Candelario (319), Michael Avon Oeming (320), Hector Callazo (321), Collazo and Rich Rankin (322-323) The year starts with a mysterious fire at a Hell's Kitchen pizzeria in which a young man “Marky” is killed and his girlfriend Lisa Rizzo needs to be rescued. After, she gets arrested and goes to court as an apparent arsonist – so Matt Murdock volunteers to be her lawyer. With Lisa not talking, Daredevil looks into the various patrons the day of the fire to figure out what really happened. In the end we find out Lisa is pregnant with Marky's child and the pizza shop owners set fire to their own store to get the insurance money. In Daredevil Annual #9, We get 3 different stories. In devouring madness, we see Daredevil break up a museum robbery. On the clock shows a typical day in the life of our fearless hero and Resurrection shows Calypso resurrect a zombie to fight Daredevil. Next, Daredevil takes on a new incarnation of Mr. Fear… Shock who is Alan Fagan's (the original Fear) daughter. The story, however, turns a bit weird as Shock enlists Taskmaster, the Wildboys and Stiltman to go after Daredevil – with the ending in issue 318 that's played off as silly more than anything. The issue itself has a weird “That's it folks! The last issue of Daredevil Before… Daredevil #319” on the cover. I had no idea what that meant until… Issue 319 starts the final story arch of the year… Fall from Grace. This year we get a prologue and the first 4 chapters of the story (which appears to go through issue 325 – February 1994). We'll speak in more detail about this story during our spotlight. In Daredevil: Man without Fear we get a thorough retelling of the Daredevil origin story as well as his relationship with Elektra. This 5-book story was written by Frank Miller and penciled by John Romita Jr (Al Williamson on inks). This story goes into far more detail than what we got originally. We also see how Kingpin came into power as well as introduced to a few new characters (Mickey/Lars). Despite knowing the story well, I really enjoyed this series. It looked amazing.

Episode 27 - Murdock and Marvel: 1988 This week we begin to see what happens when two massive Kaiju go to war in a region. Everything else either runs away or is destroyed. Such is the world of comics, circa 1988. The Year in Comics Notable and Newsworthy Industry Trends Awards Dan's Favorite The Year in Marvel Events & Happenings New Series/Limited Titles New Characters Series Ending Who's in the Bullpen ROOKIE OF THE YEAR: Bryan Hitch Dan's Favorite The Year in Daredevil Appearances: Daredevil #250-261, West Coast Avengers #28, Thor #392, Amazing Spider-Man Annual #22, Marvel Masterworks #5, Punisher War Journal #2 along with the Daredevil/Punisher Child's Play and Hawkeye graphic novels. Writing credits: Ann Nocenti (#250-261) Pencilers: John Romita Jr (#250-261) Inks: Al Williamson (#250-261) The year being with a new artist, John Romita Jr, and the introduction of a new villain (Bullet) who's been hired by Kelco as we see the continuation of the Tyrone Janson story from late last year. We also meet Bullet's son, Lance, who is afraid the world will end at any moment. Next Daredevil takes on another new villain in Ammo and the Wild Boys during a blackout caused by the Apocalypse's Horsemen – which is part of the Fall of the Mutants event. Daredevil stops him and he ends up in prison. After being robbed several times, Kingpin hires the robber by offering the dissociative identity disorder alter Typhoid $1 million dollars to make Murdock/Daredevil fall in love with her and then crush him – which she agrees. When then see Matt Murdock meeting the other alter, Mary. What follows is a brilliant story arch that lasts through the end of the year. Murdock does fall in love with Mary and ends up fighting Typhoid several times (but doesn't realize the connection). Other subplots going on throughout this arch: Tyrone gets his day in court with Kelco Chemicals – whom is represented by Foggy Nelson – and wins thanks to some ghost lawyering by Murdock Karen Page realizes she's losing Murdock as he's sneaking around to meet with Mary Typhoid grows concerned that Mary's love for Matt is allowing her to grow stronger and could eventually take over. Kingpin falls in love with Typhoid and eventually gets jealous of the Murdock/Mary relationship. After ordering Typhoid to take out Murdock/Daredevil, She assembles a team of Bullet, Ammo, the Wild Boys and Bushwacker to soften him up before she finishes the job. This climatic story is our spotlight story for the week. As the year ends, Daredevil is missing and Johnny Storm (aka the Human Torch) has been enlisted to help a desperate Karen find him. Meanwhile Kingpin isn't exactly happy how Typhoid carried out his order, but sees it as an opportunity to expand in Hell's Kitchen. Strong year of storytelling and brilliant art throughout the year New Powers, Toys or Places New Supporting Characters New Villains This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil #260 November 1988 “Vital Signs” Recap Why We Picked This Story The Takeaway Is it still an industry if there are only two companies?

Joshua and Jamie Do Daredevil: A fantastic podcast that does a deep-dive into Daredevil comics. This ran from 2018-2020, and covered most of the first volume of Daredevil, and was a fun way to get an in-depth look at each issue of Daredevil from 1-377. My Marvelous Year: This is a reading-club style podcast where Dave Buesing and friends chose important or interesting books from a particular year to read and discuss. This helped me remember some fun and crazy stories, and would be a great companion piece to Murdock and Marvel for those who want more comic-story-specific coverage. BOOKLIST The following books have been frequently used as reference while preparing summaries of the comic history segments of our show. Each and every one comes recommended by Dan for fans wanting to read more about it! Licari, Fabio and Marco Rizzo. Marvel: The First 80 Years: The True Story of a Pop-Culture Phenomenon. London: Titan Books, 2020. This book is sort of a mess, as the print quality is terrible, and Titan doesn't even credit the authors unless you check the fine print. It's like this was published by Marvel in the early 60s! But the information is good, and it is presented in an entertaining fashion. So its decent, but I would recommend you see if you can just borrow it from the library instead of purchasing. Wells, John. American Comic Book Chronicles: 1960-1964. Raleigh: Two Morrows, 2015. Not cheap, but a fantastic series that is informative and fun to read. Wright, Bradford. Comic Book Nation: The Transformation of Youth Culture in America. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2001. This is the revised edition. Marvel Year By Year: A Visual History. New York: DK Publishing, 2022. The academic in my rails at using information from any work that doesn't have an author credit, but this is a decent (if very surface) look at each year in the history of Timely / Marvel from 1939 to 2021. Cowsill, Alan et al. DC Comics Year by Year: A Visual History. New York: DK Publishing, 2010. Because its nice to occasionally take a peek at what the Distinguished Competition is up to. Dauber, Jeremy. American Comics: A History. New York, W.W. Norton & Company, 2022. An excellent, relatively compact history of the domestic comic industry from its 19th century origins through to recent 21st century developments. An excellent successor to Bradford Wright's Comic Book Nation.

Matt Fraction and Word Balloon host John Siuntres have a last call conversation about the books he's wrapping up, and the ones that are just beginning.From this week's debut of The Invincible Iron Man, to his wrap ups of The Orderand The Immortal Iron Fist, from co-writing the Uncanny X-men with Ed Brubaker, to wrapping up the current arc of his Image creator owned book Casanova. During the conversation Fraction said there is an eventual end insight for his run on Punisher War Journal, after which he'll turn the book over to his pal, and current co-writer Rick Remender.Fraction discussed the road ahead, starting with the current Jigsaw arc."We're at payoff time for Punisher... I knew coming this book I knew right away if you're going to make your stand on Punisher do the ultimate Jigsaw story... Working with Rick Remender has been a dream and has made the book sicker and more damaged and explosive than I ever thought. If we could make a punisher movie, it would be this story." "After the Jigsaw arc, there's a little secret invasion tie-in and then an arc called King Frank...the Jigsaw arc and King Frank story is wheremy bruns been leading to from the beginning.After "King Frank" I'llstep aside, and just let Rick tear it up. That's the plan, things might change, but that's the plan."Some other highlights from the audio interview...On The Invincible Iron Man, Fraction was pleased that the book ended up matching so well with the film, so new readers can jump on. "I had no advanced script to work from so it was me trying to write the type of iron man comic that I hoped would fit with the tone of the film." On bringing the threat of young Ezekiel Stane from the Order to the first IM story arc .

Welcome back to another exciting episode of Not A Bomb, the podcast that reexamines some of the biggest financial flops and critically panned films. On this week's show, Troy and Brad are still talking comic book movies and this time it's 1989's The Punisher. This is one of the rare straight-to-video films discussed on the show. The Punisher was released in theaters internationally but never saw a domestic release. American audiences weren't exposed to this interpretation of Frank Castle and his war on crime until 1991 via VHS. Brad and Troy also spend a little time talking about the Punisher mythos and take a look at the other two theatrical adventures of Frank Castle, The Punisher (2004) and Punisher: War Zone (2008)Lots of Punisher movie talk isn't enough for you? The guys have a little surprise this week for all of you comic book lovin' goofballs. As an added bonus this week, Troy gets a chance to sit down and have a little chat with comic book artist Todd Fox. Back in the early 90's, Todd drew our favorite antihero for Marvel comics. You'll get to hear about Todd's influences and his time working with writer Chuck Dixon on The Punisher and The Punisher War Journal.Timestamps:Intro - (0:53)Punisher Character Discussion - (3:55)Box Office and Critical Response - (8:14)Behind the Camera - (11:20)In Front of the Camera - (17:02)The Punisher (1989) Film Discussion - (37:02)Is it a Bomb? - (65:15)Punisher (2004) & Punisher: War Zone Discussion - (67:45)Todd Fox Interview - (80:23)Film for next week - (132:02)Outro - (144:01)The Punisher is directed Mark Goldblatt and starts Dolph Lundgren and Louis Gossett Jr. Check out Todd Fox's latest work over at www.indyplanet.com and make sure you read Aym Geronimo and the Postmodern Pioneers!If you want to leave feedback or suggest a movie bomb, please drop us a line at NotABombPod@gmail.com.

What, another member of the Crusty Bunkers?! That's right, time to punch one more hole in your CB frequency card, because we have Mr. Carl Potts on the pod! This card-carrying member of Neal Adams' Continuity Studios got his start adapting TV shows like The Six Million Dollar Man before landing at Marvel in 1983. As an editor, Carl was a talent magnet, having brought on or mentored such luminaries (and some past guests) as Art Adams, Jon Bogdanove, June Brigman, Mike Mignola, Larry Stroman, Whilce Portacio, and Scott Williams! He also oversaw the first Rocket Raccoon miniseries, the launch of Punisher War Journal (with Jim Lee), and the creator-owned Epic imprint. All this, and he co-created Alien Legion too! So settle in, Banditos: Carl's got some stories to tell...__________________________________Check out a video version of this episode on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/dollarbinbandits.If you liked this podcast, please rate, review, and subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

This week we are delighted to present our interview with Torunn Grønbekk! What an absolute pleasure it was to chat with the writer of Warhammer: Sisters of Battle, Mighty Valkyries, and the upcoming Jane Foster & The Mighty Thor and Punisher: War Journal. We talk about her career so far, her love of war history and the comic series Crossed and the fact that two of her closest friends in comics are Norther Irish creators? A little pre warning - there may be some colourful language in this one! Make sure to check out her website -groenbekk.com - for details on all those upcoming titles, as well as self published web comics. We hope you enjoy this interview as much as we enjoyed the chat!
