Pete:                I'm Pete. Alex:                 And on The Stack we talk about a bunch of books that come out this week, kicking it off with Radiant Black number one from Image Comics written by Kyle Higgins, art by Marcello Costa. This is of course, as you could probably tell from the number one and totally new book. And the premise is a Downer's luck author who has not gotten jobs for a while, heads back home, encounters something weird and may or may not become some sort of a superhero, pretty typical setup. But I really liked how this was executed personally. I thought the designs were great and I'm very excited to read this going forward. What did you guys think? Pete:                I agree. I was really impressed with this setup. I mean just seeing this guy cry when he goes through early, really makes you, “Oh, you're rooting for this person.” And then just the way he falls into is very interesting. And the design of the suit and stuff is really fantastic. I think this does a great job of getting you excited for a new series. Justin:              Yeah, this had some vibes of invincible to me very much Early Kirkman stuff. Pete:                Sure- Justin:              And both in the writing and the art. And yeah, it was an interesting launch. I was very triggered by a writer who struggles to work- Pete:                Wow- Justin:              Because that's a constant stress. Pete:                The douchey friend reminded me of you. Justin:              Oh, that's so interesting. The animal, I think it was some hamster or rat that was dead next to the tracks. It reminded me of you. Pete:                Oh, wow. That's really fucked up. Alex:                 So in the back matter, Kyle Higgins talks a little bit about how he was inspired while he was writing Power Rangers- Pete:                Yeah- Alex:                 And that really firmed a bunch of stuff up in Bye-Bye and for the- Pete:                Yes, big time- Alex:                 About the world what is going on here. But I think what he's done is he found a really grounded way of taking this Power Rangers concept, making it feel afresh, make it feel new. And it's a lot of fun. I'm excited to read more of this. Alex:                 Next up Sweet Tooth return number four from TC Comics so written and art by Jeff Lameer. We get some big answers here about what's been- Pete:                Yeah- Alex:                 Going on with this rebooted- Justin:              Yeah- Alex:                 Sweet Tooth. Justin, I know you've been concerned about the end game here. So how did you feel about this issue [inaudible 00:02:34]? Justin:              This issue did a lot for me. I think we got to learn a lot of the backstory here and what I love about the take here, and it reminded me of a lot of the later stuff. The later arcs on the original Sweet Tooth. The way that Jeff Lameer combines in the writing, the ideas of scientists who become religious fanatics, breaking that dichotomy between science and religion and showing that the real danger is when fanatical people actually have the tools they need to cause real problems for the planet. Justin:              That's when we as a society get into trouble. I think it's on display again here. And this is such a great issue to really flash out the mythology. We get to hear a little bit of why the people in charge of this newer world are motivated to do what they do and it's great. Pete:                I thought the stuff about the shirt was very sweet and touching. Alex:                 There's some stuff about Sweet Tooth shirt, particularly that was such a big thing back in the old book. And that gets called back here. I agree, really good issue, very excited to see how this all starts to wrap up, going over to a Turtle's number two from Marvel written by Karen Gillan, art by [inaudible 00:03:48] where we left off in the last issue, Thanos was attacking some of the members of the Eternals. So one of the Eternals had been murdered. Usually not a problem. It turns out it is a little bit of a problem here- Pete:                There's a problem- Alex:                 But you get some big revelations and explanation of what's going on. One- Pete:                Yeah- Alex:                 Of my favorite things about this book is it is revealed. I don't know if it was real to the first issue, but it's revealed here in a very funny and very Karen Gillen way that the person who is narrating this, is the eternal machine that helps resurrect the Eternals, but that machine is broken. And just the way that is executed, the way that tells the story of the series feels so unique and exciting to me. Pete:                Yeah. I was- Justin:              Totally the narration is funny, it's sort of irreverent. It feels like you're hearing the Karen Gillan, basically make fun of the characters in the book that he's currently writing, which I think is so great. Pete:                Yeah. I was really impressed with this. You got a big Eternals movie coming out from Marvel. So I feel like this does a great job of getting people excited for that. Eternals to me never really was something I could latch onto, but I'm really into this book. I think it's a really cool setup of a what's the problem is and what's going on and what's going to happen. And I'm really looking forward to it. Art's fantastic. A really fun time jumps stuff here. Yeah. And even there's sweet touching moments where they make mistakes. And I was really impressed with this. This is a really solid book. Justin:              And their R is so good. It feels so big mythology while also having great comic book action at the same time. This comic is really just delivering on all the fronts you want. Alex:                 Well, on that note, let's turn a bit to low number 26 from Image Comics written by Greg Takini- Justin:              Oh, here we go- Alex:                 This is the last issue of this book. Justin, this has been one of your favorite books for a very long time. How do you think it wrapped up? Justin:              Great. Just so good. Rick Rimenda. I don't know how, I mean, we talked to him about this book a few weeks ago and it was on the podcast. And I don't know how he writes his books. When does he think of the ending? Because he really does such a good job with endings in a lot of his work. He's able to tie up the character arcs, the emotional arcs as well as just the central theme and leave you thinking and feeling a certain way, in his last issues, it was same with Black Science. Justin:              And this issue is just beautifully done. You see that… And I don't want to spoil too much of it. Because I think you really need to read this and take it in. And I want to reread the entire series to really get every ounce of story out of it. But it's about a family at the end of the day. And you get to see that land in a way that is tragic, heartbreaking, but beautiful and sentimental at the same time. Pete:                Yeah. I mean, this is the sweetest most moving way Rimenda could kick you in the nuts. He's still going to get you, but this is done so well. And it's so moving. It's really impressive. The art is just… A lot of times when you're dealing with different worlds, different ideas, the art can get too crazy, but it's done in such a way that it shows grace and beauty and different things. Pete:                The layering to it is really impressive. There's different characters that aren't human that are very humanized, it's really amazing and impressive the way this all ties in. This got really weird at times, but man, does he land this so well. Justin:              And he- Pete:                He does it so well, it really does make you want to be like, “Wait, I want to go back and see that beginning again.” Justin:              If I may just get your jacket book quote correct. I think it's a beautiful kick in the nuts that makes you turn and say thank you to the nut kicker. Pete:                Right. Justin:              Peel the page. Alex:                 Next step Rorschach number five from DC Comics written by Tom King art by Hori Fornace. I hesitate to say it was my favorite issue so far, but this is the one to me that really felt like- Justin:              Yeah- Alex:                 It pulled back the veil on what's happening potentially where this book is heading. We've had this guy investigating this mystery. There was an attempted presidential assassination, but somebody dressed as Rorschach and somebody dressed as a cowboy. Alex:                 The first couple of issues have been really building up, was investigator looking through this mystery. And if I was to purely speculate for a bit, we found out that this cowboy character has been going up to people and telling them, “Hey, you are the reincarnation of Rorschach. His energy with Dr. Manhattan Blue is hemp, has gone into various people. You and Rorschach, come with me, let's do vigilante justice.” Pete:                That'll pick up line. Alex:                 That'll pick up line. I think whether that is true or not, that's what's happening to our main guy, right? He is going to get to a place where either he becomes Rorschach or even thinks he is Rorschach and maybe starts to think this is true. Justin:              Well, he believes that he's Rorschach at the end of the day. I think that's just smart. Alex:                 Well specifically because the theme that Tom King is dealing with here is conspiracy theories. And I think this is a little bit about how the deeper you get into conspiracy theory, the more things start to look like conspiracy, and the more it starts to become believable, whether you're investigating it or whether you're the one who's putting it out there. Justin:              Yeah, I think that's such a smart take because my takeaway from this issue specifically… I mean, last issue, we talked about this a little bit because it was tricking people into believing certain things and them taking it to the extreme where they end up- Alex:                 Right- Justin:              Believing it above everything else in their lives. Also very topical thing going on in our real world. And in this, this issue is about masks. And then we have this character who's running for president to try to take down a Robert Redford who's won for like five terms in a row. And he's shitting on wearing mask because he is so comfortable believing a bunch of nonsense maskless. Justin:              And the people that wear masks are quote unquote, hiding their beliefs, their identities, whatever, yet this person is so brazen and out there saying nonsense. He doesn't have to hide even the craziest opinions that he has. That was my takeaway from this, is just, the people that wear the mask are maybe the people to trust more so. Pete:                I agree with… It's all been, a lot more is solidified, click into place here. Tom King, just piece meals information as he twists and turns stories. But this is one of my favorite issues for sure. And the last couple of panels, just absolutely fantastic. And so cool. Yeah, I thought this was a great issue and I'm very excited for more. Alex:                 I agree, next up Daredevil number 27 from Marvel written by [inaudible 00:11:20] who is on the live show this very week, talking about this book, art by Marco Maketto and Mike Hawthorne. This book we're dealing with the King Black crossover while Electra is filling in for Matt Murdock fighting on the streets of New York. Matt is trapped in prison and has been infected by [inaudible 00:11:36] the God of the Symbionts. So we're getting these dual stories going on and they're both very good. Justin:              I was really impressed with this. I thought the way they handled Matt Murdoch's belief in religion and God when it came to, what the fuck is, the King of black, what's his name there? Alex:                 Knull. Justin:              Knull, thank you. Yeah, I thought that was so great. And so well explained in such a way that really felt like Matt Murdoch character. I was really impressed with that. It was crazy to hear, to be like, “Yeah, religion, I don't know.” Because it really felt like he was coming from a place, for this, but I guess he just really gets in the head of his character so well. Justin:              But yeah, I thought this was really a great, fantastic, hold it up over time issue of Daredevil, really interesting. It's all of the characters really doing their own thing in their own way, right down to kingpin and a lecturer as Daredevil. I was really impressed with the art and everything that happened in this issue. Pete:                It's really rare when a book can continue its story through a crossover and the crossover actually enhances a lot of the themes that we're dealing with. Justin:              Yeah. Pete:                And this book really does it. And the only thing that was missing was a scene where Foggy was sitting alone in his apartment, which is what he does a lot. And a symbiont comes up, jumps on him and then the symbiont is like, “Eh nevermind.” And just goes on to just someone else or just to wrap around a mouse or whatever. Justin:              Yeah. Well, Foggy wins again. Alex:                 Next up Birthright, number 46 from Image comics written by Joshua Williamson and art by Andre Bresson. This is kicking off the final arc of this book. As we start to wrap up this story here, everybody's picking up the pieces by finally taking down the God King Lore. We get some flashbacks back to the world that Mikey and friends were living in for a very long period of time. What'd you think about this? I think we felt like everything wrapped up really nicely in the last couple of issues. And now we have more Birthright. Justin:              We have this and four more issues. This is another one of my favorite books coming to an end in a great way. The fact that we had the big battle the land of the last arc, we get to see a nice epilogue an emotional- Alex:                 Oh yeah- Justin:              Epilogue, which is what again, about family and about what it means, despite all the crazy shit going on in our lives. What do we chase after when the going gets tough? And in this case, family, I love this book. Pete:                It's really dawning on me that family's important. I think comic books might be right. It's crazy. No, I agree, Justin, this is really impressive. What they're doing afterwards, this huge thing, it's kind of like, okay, onto the next adventure. No, they're really sitting in this aftermath, exploring other things that maybe they could have talked about more while all this madness was happening. I was really impressed with the relationship stuff in this, very moving, this book continues to be amazing. Alex:                 Next up Black Hammer visions never went from Dark Horse Comics written by Patton Oswalt art by Dean Cots. This is the first issue of course, of this anthology telling stories about the Black Hammer characters from creators. Other than Jeff Lameer, we've been really big fans of the miniseries, they've been rolling off here. These are these one-shots. Alex:                 I thought this as usual was absolutely great. This is a one-shot story that mixes up Black Hammer and Ghost World of all things and awards as a coda to Ghost World while still telling a story of Gail for the Black Hammer universe. Absolutely wonderful. I was completely surprised by this. Did not see this coming from Patton Oswalt at all. Really good one-shot comic book. Pete:                Patton Oswalt, really getting into the comic book game. Justin:              Yeah, I was really impressed with this. This wasn't just a comedian doing bits. This was really smart, very moving stuff, such a cool story, the way everything tied in and fit with this world. I was really impressed with this. I really liked the setting of it. I thought it was great. The art's glorious. Alex:                 Yeah, really good stuff. Next, oh God. Pete:                I agree as well. Sorry. Really got into the fact that he was able to bring Ghost World into it, was clearly something that he loves. He's got some Amy Mann quote lyrics from at the end of the book and still be telling a story that fits seamlessly into this world and is fun, funny with good reveals. It's really great. Alex:                 Let's jump into our Future State block, where we talk about all of the books that have come out for future change. Justin:              Oh yeah. Alex:                 And just to read down the list this week, we've got Future State, Dark Detective, number three. Future State Teen Titans, number two. Future State [inaudible 00:16:38], number two. Future State Superman and Wonder Woman, number two. Future State Green Lantern number two. Future State Justice League, number two. And Future State [inaudible 00:16:46] Superwoman, number two. I got to admit, I'm a little slightly with Pete here where they definitely hit me this week where I was like, “Oh, there's a lot of books we're reading, oh boy.” Justin:              Yes. It is a lot, but- Alex:                 Fuck this guy- Justin:              The stories are, so they get to- Alex:                 [inaudible 00:17:01]- Justin:              Go off in a lot of different directions. And if we're going to dive into our faves I'm going to give it up for Future State Justice League number two, which I really liked the way they went here by having the white Martian takeover. And it became about all the different heroes identities, and the fact that they need to connect with each other or else nothing, or else they're just weaker as a team. And I liked that as a theme, it was something I didn't see coming really in the last issue they laid it out and this really paid it off. I thought it was just really well done. Pete:                Yeah. I completely agree. I love Justice League, amazing art, The White Martian story was great. And also having Joe, the new Green Lantern, he was the best Green Lantern of all time. It was just fantastic. And it made the book so much better and the backup story was great. Magic is hope motherfuckers, I thought that was great. I thought [inaudible 00:18:03]- Justin:              The Justice League dark story. Pete:                Yeah. Alex:                 The other thing I mentioned that I thought it was interesting about this week is we're getting two things here, right? One, we're getting the wrap-up of these future state stories, but also we're getting teases for what's down the road. And DC has started to announce that some of these titles are continuing in different forums. For example, Wonder Woman is continuing as Wonder Girls, or we're going to get that there. Alex:                 I think, I'm forgetting which other ones are going to continue, but certainly there's teases at the end of a couple of these for how they're going to flesh out in different storylines. Green Lantern number two ends with the tease of Green Lantern 2021, which does seem again, Joe, from- Pete:                Oh, yeah- Alex:                 Fire sector is going to be fighting Hell Jordan in the subway. So that should be fun to watch. Justin:              Yes. Alex:                 The one that- Justin:              Great crew- Alex:                 Really jumped out to me, I love the first issue of this, and I love the second issue of this too. Future States Superman, Wonder Woman, which is of course, teaming up the characters, but sending them off on these very different stories, Superman fighting Solaris, [inaudible 00:19:00]. Wonder Woman trying to have a race around the universe with the Sun God from her culture. I just really liked how these characters related. I thought there was a fun tone to it. The art was really nice as well, and it felt like an enjoyable all ages title, but with these new Superman, Wonder Woman characters and it made me really delighted to potentially follow them going forward. Justin:              I agree. And this felt really mythological, the whole thing felt it could have been something in the back of an Edith Hamilton book that you read in school and were pleasantly surprised how much a comic book it was. Pete:                Oh, wow. I really liked Kara Zor-El Superwoman, number two. The art was just so phenomenal and I really liked the character design for Superwoman amazing, just cool [inaudible 00:19:57] like dragons. Very enjoyable. I've been enjoying that series as well. Alex:                 Now let me ask you Pete, at the end of this book we leave Kara Zor-El buried next to her dog Krypto. Pete:                Right. Alex:                 Would you feel if you were awesome shared a grave with them a dog, would you be like, “That's it.” Or in your case, I guess it'd be a cat. Pete:                Well, currently, I mean, don't put shit like that out there. I don't want my cat to die, but- Alex:                 I'm not saying your cat's going to die, but someday it will. Pete:                Oh, that's fucking heartbreaking, man. Justin:              Is your cat like a [inaudible 00:20:32] where if your cat dies, you have to be buried alive with the cat? Alex:                 Yes. Pete:                I hope not. I don't want to do that, but yeah, I love that. I thought that was super sweet. Alex:                 Sorry man your cats live at will, it's going to happen. I have your cat's [inaudible 00:20:51]- Justin:              You can't sign it with a [inaudible 00:20:52]- Pete:                My cat can't read. So it's going to be fine. Justin:              The cat doesn't have to read, [inaudible 00:20:57]- Alex:                 I explained it very clearly to your cat, your cat agreed- Justin:              Put a little ink print. Pete:                [inaudible 00:21:03] my cat then, I'll see you in court. Justin:              Lapage versus Whiskers of some sort. All the way to the Supreme court, what's your cat's name? Pete. Pete:                It's a very long name. I call her Caboots. Alex:                 Why are you being secrective about this? Justin:              Do we not have time to get into this? Pete:                It's a very long name. Justin:              Okay. Are you worried about threading tape on it? Because I talked to the engineer and we actually have the tape. We can run it. So go ahead. Lay out the whole name, I guess. Pete:                Okay, fine. It's kitten NASCA of the Valley of the wind Lapage Thomas. Justin:              Aw, that's very cute. Alex:                 That's very cool. Pete:                I call her Caboots. Justin:              Well, I look forward to visiting your grave in the Valley of the wind. Pete:                Nice. Justin:              Your shared grave. Alex:                 Alright. Why don't we move on from Future State and talk about critical Role Vox Mac- Pete:                Wait- Alex:                 Oh, there's other things you wanted to talk about? Pete:                Yeah it's- Alex:                 We've got also Dark Detective. We've got Teen Titans. We got [inaudible 00:22:07] Turtle. Pete:                Yeah. I wanted to talk about Dark Detective. I really thought it was a great issue. Justin:              It's great. Pete:                I love this tech Batman versus future Batman. The two designs are really cool and it's fun to see them go head to head. And to [inaudible 00:22:27] guys so drones are scary and I'm just putting that out there now. Drones are going to be very scary in the future. Justin:              Yeah. You mean the nano drones that are hovering right around your head even as we speak. Pete:                Yeah. I'm sure they're out there, but also I checked out a DC Love is a Battlefield. [crosstalk 00:22:47]. There was very durable. They did a lot of coupling up for Valentine's day. And Tim Seeley did a Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn love story. It was just so great. So touching. Justin:              It is amazing how you do this every week and in such an odd way. I really liked Dark Detective as well. The front story has been one of my favorites of this run. And just a quick rundown of the rest, Green Lantern too, I thought the setup for the next issues, I was really into the Green Lantern 2021 coming forward with how Jordan felt like a nice starting point going forward. And I liked the Robin Eternal issue here as well with Tim Drake, really suffering from some juicy Lazarus problems. Alex:                 I agree. Next up, critical role [inaudible 00:23:37] series three, number one from Dark Horse Comics written by Jody Houser, art by Oliver Samson in this book, we're getting a bunch of fantasy stuff is happening. What did you guys think? I'm sorry. I'm just not very familiar with critical role. So I read this and I was like, “Yes, this is a fantasy world.” But funny. I get it. Pete:                Yeah. I think this is a fun adventure book, a bunch of people teaming up going on adventures. Joining fight clubs. I thought the arts fantastic. Some fun storytelling. I thought this was a cool team to get behind. I'm very excited to see where this goes. Justin:              Yeah, I agree. I was concerned with the fight club that they fight in teams and how do you really judge on a team? If we were to fight another trio, how would we know we were an evenly balanced team? Pete:                If we won, we would be good. Alex:                 So Pete is the tank, right? Justin:              Yeah, that's what we say off mic. Alex:                 Justin, you're the thief, you're quick and sneaky. Justin:              That's okay. Alex:                 And I'm white like [inaudible 00:24:45]- Pete:                You're the evil mastermind. Justin:              You're the baby hands- Alex:                 Baby hands. Justin:              Every trio has them- Alex:                 Crucial. Pete:                The tank, the thief- Justin:              Yeah, you're a boss baby [crosstalk 00:24:55]- Alex:                 I'm a muscle. Pete:                Justin's [inaudible 00:24:58]- Alex:                 I'm a boss baby back in business. Justin:              Now streaming on Netflix- Pete:                Justin's a face man. He can talk his way into anything. Alex:                 There we go. Justin:              We're quite a trio. None of those things we're fighting by the way just so we're clear. Alex:                 Thunderbolts, number two for Marvel Comics written by Matthew Rosenberg, art by Van Ferrari. This is tying into the King and Black event. Lots of goopy stuff going on this week- Justin:              Goopy- Alex:                 More [inaudible 00:25:21] to come. Here we get a bunch of villains, have tried to rescue maybe, or work with Norman Osborn to find out some information from him. So they spent a lot of time in Raven Croft. I always want to say Arkham, but it's not Arkham, it's Raven Croft. Justin:              It's close. Alex:                 And it's super fun as usual. Justin:              How could you mix those two up Alex? How would you mix those two things up? Alex:                 They're two- Justin:              It's impossible. There are two very different in [inaudible 00:25:45] in two very different universes. Alex:                 You right, I'm sorry. Super fun bits in here, in particular. And I feel Matthew Rosenberg is just writing for the bits for some of these things where just, what is it? Mister Fear says something to Kingpin. He doesn't realize he's of the zoom and Kingpin is, “Hey, Taskmaster you're here.” And he's, “Yeah.” He's like, “Okay, punch Mister Fear.” And he punches Mister Fear, Norman Osborn getting too close to the zoom and his whole face filling it, just fun, it's a fun book to read. I had a blast reading it across the board. Pete:                Yeah. I think he does great on team books. This was fun. I also really to see Taskmaster around, so I thought this was a lot of fun, great kingpin stuff. The art's great. This is just a fun book. Justin:              Yeah. It's a great mix of real good comic storytelling, good fights. Character-driven stuff, even characters we don't really see a lot. I really liked this new star character that the series that we read six months ago now. Seeing her hair, it's great. Really well-written but also very fun, funny, and still tying into this goopy old crossover. Pete:                And also, you got to be wary if you just find… Nobody's just taking a nap in the bush. You got to be careful. That's all I'm saying. I don't want to give things away, but that was creepy. Alex:                 I hope this comic continues. I don't know if it will, but this is the sort of thing where I could see Wilson Fisk having a bunch of villains going on disposable missions. Most of them getting killed, not coming back alive, betray each other. It's suicide squad without the bombs in the head, but it's fun to read and he's writing the hell out of it. So I'll definitely read more. Alex:                 Next up Undiscovered Country, number 12 from Image Comics written by Scott Snyder and Charles Soul art by Giuseppe Camuncoli and Leonardo and Marcello Grassi. This is tying up the second arc of this book, unity in a huge fashion, propelling us into the next arc of the book. This is a wild ride as usual, incredible visuals throughout. Justin:              Yeah. Alex:                 Particularly with this issue, we had Scott on the show a little while ago and he was talking about how he and Charles are writing the movie. I do not know how they're writing a movie of this. It's just so big. Everything that happens. Justin:              It would be crazy to boil this arc down to one set piece. Because that's what it would have to be, sort of. I would think. Pete:                I don't know how- Justin:              The comic, you get the emotional beats are here, it's wild storytelling. There are so many ideas here. I mean, it's the same stuff we always compliment this book about, but they just continue to really find the balance of giving this… In this book, there's this very wild escape. It plays a Super Mario kart race for a portion of it. But then you get this really great heartfelt moment where to the main characters, the brother and sister are talking to their images of their parents and it's great. Pete:                Yeah. There's so much to this comic. There's so much happening. It can be a little crazy, but man, does it deliver? And the big monster aspect in this issue was just glorious and so cool that a six shooter was really crazy. This was really cool also, they thought this place that they're out was one thing and it turned out to be something different, really great ideas going on in this book. Pete:                I mean, I did think it was a little bit like, “All right, when it's these young kids.” And they're like, “This is old technology, the first iPod, how do you even use this?” I was, “Okay. All right.” But really impressive fun stuff. Art's really unbelievable. This continues to be such a scratch your head, what's happening, but then delivers really well. Justin:              Yeah. And the last page reveal is just a hundred percent fun. Alex:                 It's great stuff- Justin:              It's like, “Okay. Yeah, let's get fun.” Alex:                 I'm in, I'm on board. Love it. Can't wait for the next arc. Next up, The Last, Witch, number two for BoomBox written by- Justin:              Oh man- Alex:                 Connor MCcury art by [inaudible 00:30:09]. You guys have been buzzing about this book. Pete:                [inaudible 00:30:13]. This book is buzzing. This book is so good- Alex:                 Buzzing. First. So we got a girl in a small town heading off to a witch's tower. Just wants to check it out a little bit, things pick up and this issue where I was, “Did I miss an issue? Is this issue, number three, what's going on here?” Because this is insane from the first page with witches eating people and powers and everything. What do you guys about this book in particular? Pete:                Well first off, the art is really unbelievable. It feels like an amazing animation and still form… The characters designed in the witches and the faces and the different kind of glowing things in them are really cool. This is moving, it's intense, it's sentimental. The little part where the kid is like, “I told you, it was so awesome.” Yeah, I'm really impressed with this book. I didn't think I would like it so much. The grandma smoking a cigar is glorious. Justin:              You love a good grandma, who doesn't love a good grandma? Alex:                 You love a grandma. And you Pete, you know that's a blunt dude, you know she's [inaudible 00:31:20]. Justin:              She's far from [inaudible 00:31:22] bro- Alex:                 She even says, she's like, “Let's get this Juniper going around the room.” Justin:              Honestly. I know we're joking about it, but Pete, you are very into grandma's and comics from this to watching Future. I'm sure there's a couple of others I'm forgetting- Alex:                 And real life. He loves a grandma. Justin:              You should release your own podcast where you count down the top 10 grandmas of all time. Pete:                Oh that'd be cool. I could do it. But yeah, I think this book really took me by surprise and is really impressive. I cannot wait for more. Each issue continues to give us such a great movement for the story. Yeah. I'm really impressed. Justin:              I love the art in this a lot. It reminds me of some classic Ralph [inaudible 00:32:08] animation style getting in like, the old habit series back in the day. And to your question earlier, Alex, why we think it's such a buzz, buzz, buzzy book. It moves quickly. It's both fun, lighthearted, welcoming us into this world. It's scary at times. But it's always just driving the story forward in a well done, confident way. It's just a good book. There's a little mystery going on at the end. We get a lot of mythology building here and cabins in the woods. Watch out. Alex:                 Yeah. All right, everybody that has been our buzz-buzz busy [inaudible 00:32:48] book of the week. Let's move on and talk about American Vampire 1976, number five from TC Comics written by Scott Snyder, art by Rafael Albuquerque. Talk about things getting big- Justin:              [inaudible 00:32:59]- Alex:                 In this issue, our heroes are fighting a bunch of giants, encounter a council of vampires, tons of mythology dump in this issue are going on here as we're on to the end game, seemingly of American Vampire. Another great issue, but it's just wild to me that we are so far into the road of this book and they're still laying down huge pieces of the mythology. It's very impressive. Justin:              Yeah. And it all fits. It all feels very deliberate and they've done a great job of setting up a villain that is worse than everything else we've seen it before. And the way that they're able to keep, Skinner's such a central part of this character just by the fact that he's been devamped and he's just sort of, “Ah, I don't know what I'm doing. I'm just hanging around.” And he's still such a fun character, is great. Pete:                Yeah. Scott Snyder knows what the fuck he's doing when it comes to writing comic books, because this is really impressive, so well done. After all these arcs you would think that maybe the ideas would get a little, “All right, we're going to try.” But man just delivers hard on every issue. The last panel reveal on this was really unbelievable. I can't say enough about the art. These two teaming up is just magic. Alex:                 Next up Black Panther, Keegan Black, number one written by Jeffery Thorn art by Jermaine Peralta in this issue, as you can probably imagine these symbionts are attacking Wakanda and they start to fight back. What'd you think about this issue? Another book that feels it was inspired by, “Hey, what characters have black in their name? Let's put them in the Black King and Black Event.” But personally I think it panned out a lot better than you might expect based on that. Pete:                I was really impressed with this book. Also, I didn't expect to get choked up but there was a moment where Black Panther and Siri see each other and give each other a hug. And I got a little choked up because I was, “That's never going to happen in TV or movies and we're never going to get to see that.” And it got me a little bit, which I wasn't ready for. Justin:              It's funny you say that Pete, because I was thinking the same thing. It's so rare, I think in a comic book, where from the adaptation to the movie has such an effect on reading the comic book going forward. Because I do feel, when I see Black Panther, I'm just, “Oh, there's a loss there.” Pete:                Yeah, It's tough yeah- Justin:              I view the character in the way that it's never happened to me before. And I just can't imagine it has happened before. And to see this, I don't know, does that harm the Black Panther character in the Marvel universe? The fact that Chadwick Boseman was such an icon for the role and then died. And is it going to stay with us for forever? I guess would say. Pete:                I wonder because it's like, the comic came first. They should be able to do what they want, but man, it was just… I was having a hard time reading it. I was really getting choked up and being, “Ah, I don't know, what did you just say? Series Black Panther and not kind of deal with it just so you don't have these kinds of reactions.” But that doesn't seem fair. Alex:                 I do think there's something to be said. I agree with you guys. I had the exact same reaction emotionally and there was a brief thought of you're saying, Pete, should they retire to Tchala as Black Panther for a while? Which sounds insane. But just to get around that uncomfortable sad reaction that you have, but I would say no, you keep it going because it is a tribute to how powerful he was as the character that even though he passed away in a very untimely manner, the character continues and it does pay a tribute to him by continuing to exist, by continuing to have these ventures. And as long as they keep being good and they keep treating the character in a good way, that does pay tribute to Chadwick Boseman's performance in a back way as well. Pete:                Now I do want to talk a little bit about this issue, not you know talking about that. I thought this was a great issue of Black Panther, lot of cool things and the call back to one of Black Panthers enemies was such a cool idea to help stop this menace. I was really impressed with the writing on this and there's really cool, beast showdowns here. Yeah. Wow. What an awesome issue. What amazing art. This was really cool. Alex:                 Next up Bliss, number five from Image Comics written by Sean Lewis, art by Caitlin Yarsky. In this issue, we're getting a bunch of backstory about what's going on with our father character who was going up against the main antagonist of this book. We find out how he broke out of the hold of this drug. I guess you can call it a drug. Bliss, how he worked his way forward. Meanwhile, we're following his son as he is trying to track down his dad, I believe. Still some incredible imagining coming out of this book, even five issues in. Justin:              This reminded me of, and maybe this is a stretch. Do tell me. It's a reverse never-ending story? Alex:                 Oh wow. Interesting. Justin:              I guess it's just like the never ending story. The dad is going on the adventure and the kid is [inaudible 00:38:35] hearing the dad adventure. Pete:                That's a way to reverse Everett Dick story, as [crosstalk 00:38:43]- Alex:                 You said, the kid being directed to the drug, it's the dad and then- Justin:              What I was thinking about was the fact that it's the dad going on the adventure and the kid is hearing this stories- Pete:                Riding a dragon means drugs. And then- Alex:                 I always describe, I don't know if you guys do this too, but I always describe 13, going on 30 is a double reverse pig. Pete:                Exactly. And you talk about that a lot, especially in your work as a critic. Yeah. Alex:                 I try to relate everything back to 13 going on 30 if I can. Pete:                Seven a movie. Yeah, I thought this was a really beautiful issue. Unbelievable. This story continues to move forward in a great way. You go from absolutely hating this dad to maybe there's something that could be done. Yeah, I'm just really impressed with this story. And then fun kind of join us next time. And they got the AOC with the scales of justice. I thought that was crazy cool. Alex:                 What? Pete:                The character designs are very interesting. Justin:              I will say to Pete's point, I don't think it's actually AOC, but the woman in the preview for next issue looks just like AOC. Pete:                It's AOC dude. Alex:                 Next step Orcs, number one from Kaboom written by and art by Christine Larson. This is pretty much you could do that you could expect from the title. It's a bunch of adventure in Orcs. [inaudible 00:40:07] it's Kaboom, it is very all ages. I thought this was a delightful, fun book to read with some great character designs. I enjoyed this quite a bit. Pete, I imagine given its similarity to other things like Head Lopper and whatnot, you might've liked it as well? Pete:                Oh, I really loved it. I especially loved the first story, thought it was really cool. It's fun to see things that are cute be violent. But man, it was fun- Justin:              Yes. Are you Soggy or Jimbo that little bunny? Pete:                Yeah. I think that… Don't call him little. You [inaudible 00:40:41]- Justin:              Oh, I thought you weren't going to take the bait and then you did. [crosstalk 00:40:45]- Pete:                It was like that fish that swims by, and you're, “Wow, I missed it.” And then it's, “What's that? Is that a worm?” Justin:              [crosstalk 00:40:53]. Fish. I love worms. I'm a fish. I love worms even though I never encounter them because I live in the water. But let try that worm it's exotic to me, because it lives over the ground. Pete:                Yeah. The arts in this is really cool. It's all ages, but really it doesn't feel it's pandering to children or anything like that. There's a lot of cool action and adventure. I think this is a cool book. Alex:                 What I like about this is, it's an Orc, never ending story. Pete:                I thought it to be more of a 13 going on 30 myself. Oh wow. Justin:              I really did like this. Especially the first bit that ends up being the grandma Orc telling a story, Pete. Grandma Orc you must be just basically coming in your pants because you've seen grandma here. Pete:                I wouldn't go that far, but then I like how the grandma trips out a little bit. That was fun. Story times over, I'm getting fucked up. Alex:                 I'm sorry, just to ask, would you not let me go that far to edge her about grandmas. Let's go down. Pete:                What? What did you say? Alex:                 Nevermind. It's not important. Justin:              [inaudible 00:42:24] broke man. Pete:                Anyway. Good book. Justin:              [inaudible 00:42:27] book. Pete:                [inaudible 00:42:28], I'm fine. Justin:              You're trying to take the baton, Pete? Pete:                I don't know. Yeah. Justin:              Some are homesick pilots- Alex:                 Yeah. Go for it. Number six, Pilots Image Comics written by Dead Waters, art by Casper Winguard. We've been really enjoying this book, I think it's so many things at the same time, but essentially it's about a girl in a punk band, maybe a heavy metal band who discovers a haunted house has to recover a bunch of ghosts, but it's so much more than that. So many different things going on. It ramps up the premise at exactly what's happening. Every single issue ends with a wild visual at the end here. This is great. I really enjoy reading this. Justin:              Yeah, me too. It was one of my favorite new books out there. Talk about visuals, the visual of the sort of videotape ghost. Alex:                 Yeah. Justin:              It was haunting. Alex:                 Yeah. Justin:              I want to see that for sure. I want to see that in some movie or film or TV show. So good. Pete:                Yeah. I also really liked lessons in this, they're like, “Yo, if you're going to join a band, it is hard, it is grueling and you might get trapped in a house and not be able to make it out.” So you got to be ready for that. Also don't fucking go into other people's houses. All right. It's not going to end well. Justin:              Two lessons. Pete:                But the art is just fantastic and they really try different, the crackly, black panels that they have that look an old book in the middle of the comic is just really cool and creepy and sets this cool tone. They keep using this shot of this window in this creepy house almost looking like it's about to explode. I'm really impressed with what they're doing with this book creatively and how they're telling this story. It keeps being just fantastic every issue. Alex:                 Great stuff.

Full Episode Transcript Alex:                 What's up everybody? Welcome to The Stack. I'm Alex. Justin:              I'm Justin. Pete:                I'm Pete. Alex:                 And on The Stack we talk about a bunch of books that have come out this week. Pete:                Shut up. Justin:              We sure do. We got lots. Alex:                 With one that Pete is terrified by. Pete:                Oh my God, we're starting with this? Alex:                 We're starting with this, Pete. We're going right into it with HAHA, all caps, #1 from Image Comics, written by W. Maxwell Prince, art and cover by Vanesa Del Rey. Now, the reason I put it right here at the front of The Stack is this is by W. Maxwell Prince who also wrote Ice Cream Man, our number one book of 2020. This is his follow-up book. He talked about it live on the show when we had him on as a guest. I feel like there's a fair amount of hype regardless in the real world about this, let alone here on our little old podcast. Pete:                We're old. Alex:                 This is a different sort of anthology. This is not about the Ice Cream Man, this is about clowns. This is still an anthology telling deathwatch stories, I believe, about these different characters, and obviously it goes very dark. But what did you think about not just this book, but how it holds up compared to Ice Cream Man? Justin:              I think definitely it's great. If you're a fan of Ice Cream Man, I think you will like this book as well. It's nice to see a story that is a little bit totally different. I feel like Ice Cream Man has sort of a supernatural dread to it and this has just more of an existential dread to it, which is just a subtle shift in flavor, the difference between a pistachio with chocolate chip and a pistachio without chocolate chip. But the art is different, which I appreciate, and I really liked the first story. Alex:                 Pete, how did you feel about this? Were you're too scared to read it? Pete:                It was very scary, I had to make sure I read it during the day with plenty of light. Justin:              You had to empty that bladder out first so you didn't pee your pants. Pete:                Yeah, this was insane. This is really just … What was nice is you kind think you understand it and then it kind of takes a couple more turns. So it was creatively impressive, but just the fact of like this is the person who did Ice Cream Man, the tone underneath it was very troubling, and scary and intense. There is a lot of creepy stuff going on all the time. Yeah, the art was glorious. The storytelling was impressive, but I am very scared to see what's going to happen if this is the beginning. Alex:                 I like this quite a bit. I thought this was really good like you guys are saying. For those who didn't pick it up, I felt, whether purposeful or not, this felt like a very specific response to Joker to me because this is about- Pete:                Oh, interesting. Alex:                 … a clown who is down and out and pushed to his limits, and then what does he do next? Justin:              The movie Joker? Alex:                 The movie Joker, yes. Pushed to his limits, what does he do next? It goes in very different directions obviously than the movie goes, but it does go to this very dark place. It doesn't back off from the realism of it. But like Pete was touching on Vanesa Del Rey's art, goes through these really different art styles that are very gritty and realistic, some that are cartoony. Alex:                 So there's a real breadth to the art there that I thought was really nice. And it does feel different from Ice Cream Man like Justin was saying, which I thought was nice to see as well. Even if you haven't read that book, even if you had no interest, even if you were scared of clowns, this is really good. Alex:                 I mean, I will say, I know I've mentioned to the lead-up to this book that my wife was a clown so I was going to throw this by her, but this is a different type of clown. It's just like more of a party clown type thing going on. Pete:                I'm glad we're- Justin:              Well, I guess we'll see. Pete:                … talking about this, because something that I touched upon last episode, I don't know if the live show or The Stack or whatever, I'm worried- Alex:                 We know, as we do too many podcasts. Go ahead, Pete. Pete:                … I'm worried about your children, because your wife is a clown, you are an evil genius. What are your children going to turn into? You know what I mean? I am very worried that I'm growing up in a world where it's going to be the birth of some kind of like joker type character. You know what I mean? Justin:              I'm worried you're raising some sort of insane clown posse. Is that possible? Alex:                 Yeah. The other day, and this is really weird, my son said, “Hey, do you want some Faygo?” and I was like, “I don't know what that means, but yes, please.” Justin:              Nice. I feel like they've got a big weekend planned later this little summer. I want to give a shout out to the movie Quick Change, which I feel like may have been an inspiration for this comic, a Bill Murray movie from like 1990 or something like that. Alex:                 Regardless, very good book. Definitely pick it up. Next up, King in Black: Thunderbolts #1 from Marvel written by Matthew Rosenberg, art by Juan Ferreyra. As you- Pete:                Bergie Alex:                 … As what? Pete:                Bergie. Justin:              Bergie Alex:                 You just love shouting things in the middle when I'm talking, Pete. Pete:                Yeah. Alex:                 If you haven't been picking it up, this is taking place during the King in Black event where Knull, the God of the Symbiotes, has taken over New York City. Here, Kingpin gathers a group of villains to try to take down Knull or at the very least start the process of taking down Knull. In classic Matthew Rosenberg fashion, things don't go very well. There's a bunch of sad sack, horrible villains. But a lot of people die in this book. This feels like Marvel's answer to Suicide Squad, the best way. Justin:              100%. The movie. Alex:                 I had a lot of fun reading this. Justin:              Agreed. This was great. I was really into the star character in her standalone series from last year, so it's great to see her on this team. And just great story, loved everything that happened. Great panel where you get to see Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Jessica Jones kicking ass in the middle and they're like, “Yeah, let's get away from this.” Pete:                Yeah. I feel like this is a great kind of story, but also the art is really fantastic in a lot of different ways. It's cool to see Kingpin out of a suit. He's rocking like a starter jacket and a polo shirt, but casually still running things like Kingpin. Yeah. There's a lot of fun being had in this book that is completely insane and over the top, but yeah, this is a fun issue. Alex:                 Yeah, I've been a little 50/50 about some of the tie-ins. The Venom stuff feels necessary, the King in Black stuff feels necessary, but a lot of stuff with this event feels very side to the event to me. This is side to the event, but I had a blast reading it anyway, and I think that makes it worth checking out. Next up, let's go into our Future State block. We did this last week for the first week of Future State. Justin:              Yes. Pete:                Oh, boy. Alex:                 We read and talked about not all the books, but some of our favorites. But once again this week we read all of the books in DC's Future State, which shows us a possible future of the DC Universe. I'd love to go to you guys. Given that we read, I'll just read the titles and then we could read the creative teams later. Alex:                 We read Teen Titans, Green Lantern, Kara Zor-El, Superwoman, Robin Eternal, Justice League, Superman, Wonder Woman, Dark Detective. Those are the ones that came out this week. What jumped out at you? What did you particularly like that you thought was the standout this week or standouts? Justin:              It occurs to me reading a lot of these books that this event feels so much like the 2099 line that Marvel did many, many years ago- Alex:                 Good call. Yeah. Justin:              … especially the Dark Detective book and Robin Eternal in this batch. And I liked both of these books. Robin Eternal brings in Spoiler and some of the … Was it Robin Incorporated? Was that the name of it or? I forget the team of all the Robins, there was a book for a while. Alex:                 We Are Robin. Justin:              We Are Robin, That's what it is. Alex:                 Yes. Just to mention the creative teams- Pete:                We Are Robin. Alex:                 … behind those since we're talking is, Robin Eternal is written by Meghan Fitzmartin, art by Eddie Barrows. Dark Detective is written by Mariko Tamaki and Matthew Rosenberg once again, art by- Pete:                Are they- Alex:                 … Dan Mora from Once & Future, one of our favorites here, and Carmine Di Giandomenico. Go ahead, Justin. Sorry about that. Justin:              And no, great. And Dark Detective I feel like is almost a direct analog to Spider-Man 2099 #1, which is a great book. I really enjoyed this. And then the backup that you were just mentioning, the team behind it, I think is Matt Rosenberg with a Grifter story which I also enjoyed. Pete:                … Yeah. I mean, I'm not mad at this event. Like this has been some very interesting reading. I've been reading DC for most of my life and some of the stuff in here is really great. The superwoman art was just- Justin:              It was really good. Pete:                … unbelievable, the character design. It was just nice to be reading a DC book and being like, “Wow, is this really a DC book?” The colors and the stuff was just so cool. Alex:                 Yeah, just too while you're calling it out, Kara Zor-El, Superwoman is by Marguerite Bennett and art by Marguerite Sauvage, who I believe was the team behind the DC Bombshells line as well. So there's definitely a sense of that going on. But go ahead, Pete. Pete:                And yeah, I just think that even the Future State: Green Lantern, we still got … I was hoping it wouldn't be the actual Green Lantern, it'd be the Green Lantern that we really like. But there's still a lot of creative stuff happening. And maybe I don't know everything, but I was really … The Teen Titans book, Beast Boy is also part of Cyborg. And Robin is rocking what looked like a Taskmaster belt. But like it- Alex:                 Deathstroke. Pete:                … Yeah. But it looked- Alex:                 Same character basically. Pete:                … Well, Slade Wilson, but the belt has the T that looks exactly like Taskmaster's belt. But that kind of stuff aside- Justin:              Terminator. Pete:                … I was like, “Oh my God, this is a ton of books that we have to read that Robin just dumped in our laps to make us read. But I ended up being very happy- Justin:              Make us read. Pete:                … that we had to do this. And also, I'm still really loving this new Wonder Woman. Justin:              Yeah. Well, Alex, you haven't said anything yet. Why don't you go? Alex:                 No, that's fine. I mean, I agree with a lot of those picks that I think are really good. Mariko Tamaki, like you said, her Dark Detective was awesome. This book is about Bruce Wade is left for dead, of course he's not quite dead. So who does it become next? The Matthew Rosenberg Grifter story, again, a really fun story there. Alex:                 I agree with you about Robin Eternal. I was surprised about that one, how much that I like that. It's a really good Tim Drake spoiler story, and I was definitely reading that being like, “Oh, Justin likes this one.” But the one that stood out to me that I was really surprised about was Future State: Superman/Wonder Woman #1, written by Dan Watters, art by Leila Del Duca. Alex:                 Like Pete said, I think like Wonder Woman, clearly this new Wonder Woman has been the standout here of this event. She's definitely the one that everybody hooked into. They're developing it for the CW as a Wonder Girl show. But she's great, she's fun, Jon Kent is fun. The tone of this is just … Alex:                 This Wonder Woman is … I believe they haven't been totally upfront about everything that's going on, but she seems to be from some sort of South American god, Pantheon, but also the Olympian Pantheon. Like Zeus is her dad, but somebody else is her mom. So she's dealing with the Sun God there who ends up having a race with … Is it Solaris? Justin:              Solaris. Pete:                Yes, Solaris. Alex:                 Solaris. Pete:                In that conversation, Superman versus Solaris really. Alex:                 So fun where just Superman and Wonder Woman are on the ground being like, “Well, this is messing up the entire earth because of the tides and everything that's going on, while these two Sun Gods are having a race around the earth.” Just the whole tone of it was so surprisingly light and enjoyable. I had a blast reading this book. Pete:                Also, I- Alex:                 Justin, you were pointing at me, which one did you think I was going to call out? Justin:              I thought you were going to call out Justice league #1, which is I really liked that. Pete:                … That's exactly what I thought he was going to say. I also was … Yeah, I really liked Justice League and Justice League Dark. I also liked the kind of last stage reveal. Alex:                 That was great. So that was Joshua Williamson writing the Justice League story, Ram V writing- Pete:                The third. Alex:                 … the Justice League Dark story. Robson Rocha on the first story, Marcio Takara on the second story. And yeah, I liked the Justice League story, I thought that was a lot of fun. That was all about like the fallout of the Justice League messing up and being rear-ended, what have you. Pete:                Also had the right Green Lantern on that one. Justin:              Yeah, we get our N.K. Jemisin Green Lantern. Pete:                Yeah. Alex:                 Which is awesome. But the Justice League Dark story was fantastic in that backup there. So then- Justin:              Yeah, I like both of these stories. They do a great job of really giving us context for the first Justice League story and then just moving quickly through the story in a fun way by getting this idea out that they're not supposed to talk to each other, they're supposed to maintain their secret identities. But they're all breaking those rules, really great. Justin:              As opposed to some of the ones that I thought were harder to read were the Teen Titans one and the Green Lantern one because I was like, “What is happening?” There was very little context given up at the top. And they felt like dumping us into story that I didn't quite know it was happening. Alex:                 … I think this is an interesting week two thing in particular with the Green Lantern one. Teen Titans is like the … There seems to be a disparity in terms of time period with some of these, where some the earth is a paradise, some the earth is ruined. It's not quite clear how they connect to each other. Pete:                Which one are we living in? Alex:                 A little bit of both, calm A, calm B. Pete:                Okay, cool. Justin:              There you go. Alex:                 Teen Titans is by Tim Sheridan, Rafa Sandoval. Green Lantern is by Geoffrey Thorne, Ryan Cady, Ernie Altbacker, art by Tom Raney, Sami Basri and Clayton Henry. We get three stories in the Green Lantern one. That was definitely one where I felt like we're just dropped in the middle with a John Stewart story. You don't know exactly what's going on. They're fighting a new villain. Alex:                 The second one, it felt like it started to become a little clear as we followed. Jessica Cruz is fighting some Yellow Lanterns, some of the Sinestro Corps. And it becomes clear that the rings have failed. At some point, the Green Lantern rings stopped working. And it becomes even clearer in the third story, which was my favorite of that book, which follows Guy Gardner. He's on a random alien planet as his ring fails and he can't leave the planet, so he kind of makes the best of it. That story I thought was a lot of fun, personally. Justin:              Yeah, indeed that one was very fun. Alex:                 But there you go, good stuff from the Future State. Surprisingly like we've been talking about, a strong event going into week two. Justin:              Really enjoying. Alex:                 Next up, let's talk about one of Justin's favorite books I imagine this week, Home Sick Pilots #2 from Image Comics, written by Dan Watters and art by Caspar Wijingaard. In the first issue of this book, we met a punk band, maybe something like that. One of them got possessed by a haunted house, but- Justin:              That happens in punk band. Yeah. Alex:                 … the other folks got killed by that haunted house. And at the end of the book, we found out the one that was possessed by the haunted house was traveling around, finding relics that had been taken out of the house, and that's where we pick up this issue. This title is awesome. I love it. Justin:              It's so good. It's comes from such a strong point of view, like such confidence writing this story, which is like a little wild. Like, you're getting into all this like band and music stuff, at the same time a very specific type of ghost story or horror story. And the way this issue plays out is super fun, super unique, sad at points, and it's setting up some real tension for the characters going forward. Pete:                Also I'm glad it really explains why people hang a horseshoe above the door. We really get the kind of where that all got started and why people do that. This is all true stuff. Justin:              But what if the horses come back for their shoes? Pete:                Yeah. Alex:                 It reminds me a little bit, I don't know if this is exactly correct, but it reminds me a little bit of- Pete:                You buy them Jordans, that's what you do. Alex:                 … like Scott Pilgrim meets Locke & Key, because- Justin:              Okay. Alex:                 … Yeah. Well, because you got the … This is a spoiler, but we find out by the end of the issue our main character has to track down six relics for the haunted house. Pete:                Ah, don't spoil it. Alex:                 Well, hold on. But six relics for the haunted house. We get some teaser of some very creepy things that are going on there. We get some big fights. But there's this whole mythology being built out here that is fascinating to read it. It really feels like something completely fresh and new at a very excited way. Justin:              Yeah, the shot of the horseshoe ghost once it's returned to the house was very Gabriel Rodriguez I thought, in a great way. Alex:                 Yes. Pete:                Yeah. Alex:                 Great stuff. Definitely pick up this book. This is a good one to get on the ground floor of. Next up, King in Black: Gwenom, I think- Justin:              Gwenom. Alex:                 … vs. Carnage #1 from Marvel, written by Seanan McGuire, art by Flaviano. This is again tying it to the King in Black event. Here we're getting our alternate universe. Gwen Stacy is going into the fray as you could probably guess from the title, she ends up fighting Carnage by the end, but not the Carnage you know. What did you think about this tie-in? Justin:              I like it a lot. I've been a huge fan of the Spider-Gwen and now Gwenom and all the different iterations. It's a pretty wild story at this point that she is a Gwen Stacy who held Peter Parker when he died in her arms and became Spider-Girl, Spider-Woman. And then in this, in her earth, there's a little bit of gender swapping with a lot of characters and just slightly alternate takes with everybody. Then she had a venom from her earth, she's now in our earth and dealing with a lot of other Venoms in this issue, including a surprising person who becomes Carnage by the end. I liked it. Alex:                 Pete. Pete:                Yeah. I mean, they make comics for different people, and the important part is that everybody gets to enjoy what they like and that's awesome Justin:              What don't you like about this? Not enough Venoms? You need more Symbiotes here? Pete:                No, just Gwenom is cool for people, not one of my favorite characters. And hey, awesome for other people, just not my cup of tea. And I respect people want to make comics that they want to read, and then you get to pick what you want to pick. Alex:                 You sound so sad right now, Pete. I liked this book a lot more than I thought I would. I do like Spider-Gwen or Ghost-Spider or whatever you're calling her. I think she's good. This is a good tie in. It feels natural to bring her into this, given her status quo. And I think in particularly the art by Flaviano is really good- Pete:                Art is great. Alex:                 … and very consistent with the Gwen Stacy Ghost-Spider book, if you read that. Next up, Sweet Tooth: The Return #3 from DC Comics by Jeff Lemire. This gets you the story of whatever is going on with this new Gus who might be the old Gus, we're not quite clear, who is being tracked out of this post apocalypse that's living under the earth. This book is so wild to read, particularly in reference and bouncing off of what's happening to Sweet Tooth. It's fascinating. Justin, I know you were a little conflicted, I think, about the second issue. How did you feel about the third one? Justin:              I mean, I still like the book. It's funny. It feels like just a sped up version of the original series in a way. And I do think we're going to get probably next issue the reveal that this Gus is a clone of the original Gus and it's sort of like someone trying to re-engineer a religious event for all these people and return to the earth, and all of that. And so I think that's a cool story, but it definitely feels like we're digging up fossils that we were there for when they were buried- Pete:                No way. Justin:              … if that makes sense. Pete:                This was an awesome, awesome issue. Earl is my new favorite thing. This was- Alex:                 This is a large elephant man who kills people. Pete:                … Yeah. And Earl was just such a bad-ass and such a fun addition to this book. I mean the fuck me Earl is loose just before his head gets ripped off, that's just great. That's just great comics. That's just fun stuff. Yeah. Kind of a creepy reveal of the kind of like two versions of him. But I think this is a very interesting kind of book as it does kind of speed through this, which I … It says three to six, like they don't have time for this. I appreciate the fact that it's fast forward a little bit. Justin:              Of course, I'm not saying it's a bad thing, I'm saying that's just what it feels like. Pete:                Yeah, so … Alex:                 That's definitely a cool quote for the cover, “I don't have time for this shit.” Justin:              Yeah. Alex:                 I really liked this a lot, it's just it's a weird read. To your point, Justin, I'm curious too. I'm more curious to reflect on it when it's done and how it works in relationship to the first Sweet Tooth more than anything else. Next up, A Man Among Ye #4 from Image Comics, written by Stephanie Phillips, art by Craig Cermak. This is ending this title, I believe, for now. It focuses on a bunch of female pirates who are teaming together. We finally get that team in this issue as they try to rescue one of their boyfriends, I guess, that's the best way of putting it. Pete, you've been a big fan of the series. Pete:                Yeah, this is really great. And I think this ends really well. It's a little heartbreaking what kind of happens. But I've been really impressed with the action, I love the storytelling and I think this is a really kind of cool way of everybody kind of coming together here at the end so we can kind of get more ventures hopefully. But I thought this was a great kind of a fun pirate story with some cool twists in it to kind of update it. And I appreciate a lot of the rage in what was happening. Alex:                 Justin, what about you? Justin:              Some comics are for Pete, and some comics are for Justin and some comics are for Alex. And this one, this was fine. I think I said last time like I'm not a crazy fan of this. Reading this issue, it feels very much like an old black and white Disney movie in it's sort of storytelling and style. Once I was like, “Ah, I think that's what the vibe is here,” I enjoyed it more, but it's all right. Alex:                 Yeah, I would have honestly wanted a little more from it. I want to kind of want to see where it goes, and maybe now that this team is all together where it goes to the second arc, excited about that. But art by Craig Cermak was good. I think the writing was solid. I had a fun time reading this. Next step, The Immortal Hulk #42 from Marvel, written by Al Ewing, art by Alex Lins and Adam Gotham. Gotham, perhaps. Justin:              Oh, interesting. And on a Marvel book. Alex:                 That's weird. Justin:              I think it's Gotham. Alex:                 Gotham. Justin:              Oh, Gorham actually. Alex:                 Gorham? Pete:                Wow. Justin:              Yeah. Alex:                 All right. Interesting. Anyway- Pete:                Actually, it's Jones, I think is what it is. Yeah, it's Gorham. Alex:                 In this issue, we're getting split focus between Henry Gyrich is taking over Gamma Flight- Justin:              I think it's Gyrich. Alex:                 … Gyrich? Justin:              Definitely. Alex:                 Have I been pronouncing it wrong my entire life? Justin:              Yes. Alex:                 Jesus Christ. Justin:              It's pronounced [inaudible 00:25:37]. Pete:                I don't want that attention. Alex:                 Anyway, some guy is taking Gamma Flight to task. Meanwhile, the leader is trying to figure out why he can't get the whole taking over the world, the Immortal Hulk thing to work for him. He figures out some stuff by the end, so does Gamma Flight. Lots of stuff going on here and lots of movement to this issue. What did you guys think? Justin:              This book is great. It's continues to be great. This feels very much like a sort of middle type issue, so it's not the like big moves happening. I do like the reveal that our newspaper reporter, who's been an ongoing character in this run, has been affected by the gamma rays. That's a big turn and reveal. And I love, love the reveal at the end. Alex:                 Pete, what about you? Pete:                Yeah. I mean, it continues to be gross and creepy in all the right ways. Yeah. I mean, we got the leader trying kind of figure things out a little bit in this issue, and then some other storylines going on. Yeah, just the monster stuff is so insane and this stuff. I'm interested to see where this is going. It continues to be a really solid book. Alex:                 Yeah, I love this as well. My one caveat that I was weirdly struck with this issue, I wish, I know that they can because they've got to release a whole book every month, I wish that they would have waited for Joe Bennett to do all of it. Because Joe Bennett's art is so phenomenal and his designs are so disgusting in exactly the right way, that whenever he does an issue, it's heads and tails above everything else. And we've gotten some phenomenal stuff as well. I think the art in this was good. Alex Lins, Adam Gorham, you say. Justin:              I know, I think you've got to give it up for Gorham. Alex:                 Yeah, both really good things across the board. But man, there's something slightly missing in terms of the fucked upednes of Joe Bennett's art in this issue that I would have wanted a little bit more. Justin:              But I also think this issue wasn't about that, this was sort of dealing with some of the other characters. If we're going to take a break from the crazy body stuff, I'm fine having another artist jump on. But I got to get up for Al Ewing for really plumbing all the depths of the Hulk villains to hit all the weirdest marks, and we do it again here. Alex:                 Yes, I agree with you on that cliffhanger. Let's move on to talk about American Vampire 1976 #4 from DC Comics, written by Scott Snyder, art by Rafael Albuquerque. Pete:                Albuquerque. Alex:                 In this issue we're ramping things up in a big way as our heroes, I guess, question mark, sort of try to start to figure out how they can stop the apocalypse, things get worse before they get better. What did you guys think about this issue? Pete:                This was a really amazing, fun issue. Love the crazy team up. A really intense last page. The art is really unbelievable. This was really clicking for me. I really enjoyed this issue. Justin:              If you walk in a room where the chairs are too big, get out of there, because someone's coming home and sitting- Pete:                Yeah, that's a good note. Justin:              … in those big ass chairs. Alex:                 I broke into a house one time and there was a chair that was too big, and there was a chair that was too small, but then there was one chair that was just right, that's the one that I sat in and then I broke it. Pete:                And then the bears came home and murdered you like your name was Archie? Alex:                 Yeah, that was a lot of things all at the same time, Pete. Justin:              Interestingly you were in a house that bears own. Alex:                 I got totally bear-zoned, if you know what I mean. Justin:              Yeah, you got bowned. Pete:                Yes. Alex:                 Yeah, great book. Really awesome every issue. Let's move on and talk about Seven Secrets … Yes, what? Justin:              No, I do. I really like this book. Scott Snyder has such a mastery of these characters, and I think it's building up to something really exciting. Alex:                 Yeah. I guess the main thing is just like, it is wild to be in a thing that started with something so relatively simple as, “There's different type of vampires,” and now it's like, “Every monster,” but I love it, it's fun to read. Seven Secrets #6 from Boom! Studios, written by Tom Taylor, art by Daniele Di Nicuolo. We have wondered the entire series what these secrets are, they just kind of talked about what the secrets are. Finally, we get an inkling of what is going on- Pete:                A little taste of the secret. Alex:                 … with them as our heroes get attacked by the Keepers, the Villains, manage to escape at the last second. And we open up the mythology of the book in a really big and very weird way. I thought this issue was not only great as the series has been, but very necessary in terms of the run, because there's only so long you can keep these secrets- Pete:                Yeah, exactly. Alex:                 … secret from the reader before it starts to get annoying and they start to really pull back the veil here. Justin:              Yeah. It's great to hear your secrets. Go ahead. Pete:                I was really impressed because I was like, “Man, it's the sixth issue when we're finally getting a little taste of the secrets,” I was like, “There's no way to build up.” But the fact that it is such a huge kind of thing that happens when they open up one of the cases, I was like, “Okay, great. This is worth it. This is totally insane. The action is over the top.” It's really interesting how something can start at one place and kind of end up here. It's really impressive, the writing and the storytelling. It's great. Justin:              Yeah. I feel like Tom Taylor set out at the beginning of this book and was like, “I'm going to write a comic that is truly an anime, that is very much in the style of an anime series or anime movie,” and that's what this is. This feels very much like it's- Pete:                In all the right ways. Justin:              … Taylor-made to be an anime. Alex:                 I get it. Justin:              Taylor-made to be an anime. Alex:                 Let's move on and talk about S.W.O.R.D. #2 from Marvel, written by Al Ewing, art by Valerio Schiti. This is also tying into the King in Black event, though it's not necessarily labeled as such, I believe, on the cover. I believe this following how it's affecting the X-Men side of the world and things get real bad by the end here with this weird defacto team of folks. What did you think? Pete? Pete:                Sure. Alex:                 Justin? Justin:              Yes. This was a weirder … Like we were talking about with the King in Black stuff, this definitely feels like it's a fair distance away from the main storyline. But it's a fun, random team of X-Men. And it's nice to read a book with Al Ewing sort of dabbling around in the X-Men world. I like the places ends. I like to see these characters random. Magneto sort of feels like older Magneto. Sebastian Shaw. We haven't seen these characters in a while, so I enjoyed seeing them in this book. Alex:                 Pete. Justin:              Yeah, Ewing is doing amazing stuff on Hulk and so cool. Alex:                 This is wild. This is like straight out of the nineties X-Men book. It's very different from a lot of the other X-Men stuff, and it is tangential. I mean, it's all of them living on the S.W.O.R.D. Space Station and try to figure out like basically reasons why they should not go fight Knull, the King in Black, is essentially what happens to this issue. Alex:                 But it is one of those books where I'm reading, I'm like, “Oh yeah, I remember that character from the nineties. Okay, that's cool.” But like you said, a good cliffhanger at the end that definitely makes me excited to read #3. And last but not least, Bloodshot #10 from Valiant Comics rate by Tim Seeley, art by Brett Booth- Pete:                Don't you feel it. Alex:                 … and Pedro Andreo. This is a book that straight up feels like it's trying to capitalize off the massive success of the Bloodshot movie that never happened. But regardless, Tim Seeley is doing his best here to put out a fun over the top, insane, cinematic Bloodshot book. Justin:              Yeah, and I think he is succeeding. I like a lot of the movies in this book. I mean, aren't we all strung out Bloodshot who comes back in the middle of the issue and tries to pick a fight, but he doesn't have enough protein? That's what we're all living in right now. And I like the line, “Come on you Jared Leto-looking motherfucker.” Pete:                Yeah, that's great. Justin:              Very funny. Alex:                 That's just Tim Seeley. Justin:              Tim Seeley does a great job of combining great action with some fun minds. Alex:                 It's wild how much happens in this book, it feels like three entire arcs of a Bloodshot comic happening within 20 something pages which is an insane pace to read. But it's fun, I enjoyed it. I don't know. Pete:                Yeah, I mean- Justin:              Eat your protein. Pete:                … Tim Seeley is a great writer. He adds humor to all the right things. Bloodshot to me is not one of my favorite characters, the movie didn't help that at all. I thought this was kind of a more interesting take, but it was very fast-paced, but it had some great lines in it. Justin:              Let me ask you, Pete, what don't you like about him? That he's like Deadpool, a character you like, or the Punisher, another character you like? Pete:                I don't know what it is, man. All right? I don't know. Justin:              You don't like nanites? They're just tiny robots. Pete:                Yeah. Don't trust them. Alex:                 He kills people and eats meat, what is there that you don't like about that, Pete? Pete:                Okay. On paper, it seems like I should love this guy. I get it guys. Justin:              Tim Seeley, one of your favs. Pete:                Oh, yeah. Justin:              Touchy-feely Tim Seeley. Alex:                 His name is Bloodshot. Blood and shot are two of your top 10 words. Pete:                It's okay guys, I get what you're saying. Justin:              Whenever we used to go out to bars, you'd be like, “I'll have a blood shot,” and we would all drink blood with you because that's what you demanded. Pete:                Yeah. Alex:                 And then you would shout, “Dracule.” All right, folks. I think that's it for The Stack. If you'd like to support us, patriotic.com/comicbookclub.

In this special mini-episode of Gotham Outsiders: A Batman Bookclub, we share our interview with the comic book artist of Batman Eternal, Batman and Robin Eternal, and Detective Comics, ALVARO MARTINEZ!

In this episode, Chris welcomes Lisa from the "I Love that Movie" podcast to discuss one of her favorite comic book arcs, "Batman & Robin Eternal".  Scott Snyder, James Tynion IV, and Tony S. Daniel lead a team of all-star writers and artists to craft a story that not only explores why Batman needs Robin, but also delves into one of Batman's greatest sins and regrets.  Bruce Wayne may no longer be Batman, but his legacy lives on. When an assassin begins targeting all of Batman’s past partners, the former Robins must join forces to untangle a mystery that stretches back to the early days of the Dark Knight’s career. Years ago, Batman encountered a human trafficker known as Mother. Then-Robin Dick Grayson knew nothing of it at the time, but the case was much more complex than he could have ever imagined. Now, without Bruce to guide them, a grown-up Dick Grayson and his allies must rely on the help of the silent, mysterious Cassandra Cain to pick up the trail and stop Mother’s deadly plans. What is revealed will shake the foundation of the Batman and Robin partnership.Geek Ultimate Alliance on Twitter: @GUAPodNetworkWFTB on Twitter: @FinestBelieversWFTB Email: worldsfinesttruebelievers@gmail.comChris on Twitter: @ChrisBalgaLisa on Twitter: @AyaLisaCosplayI Love that Movie on Twitter: @ILTMpodcastI Love that Movie on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ilovethatmoviepodcast/

Tackling another couple of funny Cass stories. This time we've got Batman Outlaws #2 and Batman & Robin Eternal #5.

Ed Brisson is a comic book writer who first started to garner attention with his self-published crime series MURDER BOOK. He broke into the public spotlight in 2012 with the crime/time-travel thriller series COMEBACK (Shadowline/Image Comics). In the short time since then, he's written and co-created four other series published by Image: SHELTERED, THE FIELD, THE MANTLE and THE VIOLENT. His self-published series MURDER BOOK was collected and released by Dark Horse in early 2015. Ed has also written for BOOM (SONS OF ANARCHY, CLUSTER, THE LAST CONTRACT), Marvel (SECRET AVENGERS, SECRET WARS BATTLEWORLD), DC (BATMAN & ROBIN ETERNAL), IDW (TMNT/X-FILES CONSPIRACY) and many others. Ed's currently writing DEAD MAN LOGAN, GHOST RIDER and NEW MUTANTS for Marvel. He's been nominated for the Joe Shuster Award for Best Canadian Writer several times.

Mike keeps himself busy covering Gotham Knights #2 and Batman & Robin Eternal #4. We get some further development on Cass's personality and references to stories he's never read. Fun.

Mike's voice betrays him today. Maybe the beginning of April is bad luck. Either way, today he discusses Gotham City Secret Files and Origins #1 and Batman & Robin Eternal #3. Maybe he needs a cough drop.

After a quick discussion of Birds of Prey, Mike covers Azrael: Agent of the Bat #61 and Batman & Robin Eternal #2.

Mike tackles two books this time, first covering Azrael: Agent of the Bat #60 as Azrael and Batgirl try to evacuation Joker's territory in No Man's Land. Then he moves on to Batman and Robin Eternal #1 and the New 52 introduction of Cassandra Cain.
