This week, we're joined by acclaimed comic book writer Todd Dezago! Known for his character-driven storytelling and gift for collaboration, Todd takes us behind the scenes of his influential run on Sensational Spider-Man with Mike Wieringo that redefined Peter Parker for a generation of readers. We explore the creation of their creator-owned fantasy epic Tellos, a vibrant world of swashbuckling adventure that showcased both creators at the height of their powers while tragically serving as one of Wieringo's final major works before his untimely passing. Todd shares candid insights about his unique collaborative process, from his work on Young Justice with Todd Nauck to partnering with Craig Rousseau on the all-ages gem The Perhapanauts—a supernatural investigation team that blends humor with heart.

For this episode, Comic Talkers Mari and Brandon continue on with Shazam! Month as they take on their second book club of the month. This time, they discuss the story “JLA: World Without Grown-Ups.” Written by Todd Dezago with art by Mike Mckone and Humberto Ramos, this follows the Young Justice as they are faced with a challenge they have never had to face before, A WORLD WITHOUT GROWN-UPS. We follow Robin (Tim Drake), Superboy, and Impulse (Bart Allen) as they try to find out how to return things back to normal before it is too late. In order to do this though, they will need the help from someone who is not only a child, but has the ability of turning into a super-powered adult, that being Billy Batson. Will these young heroes come up victorious? And how will Billy realize that he plays a bigger part in this story than he realizes? Tune in to find out.

In tribute to the life and career of master artist Mike Wieringo , Word Balloon presents this 2005 interview.Mike was the first comic creator to approach me about Word Balloon, rather than my attempting to contact them. He wanted to hear my interview with his friend Jeff Parker , but was having trouble downloading it. This afforded me the chance to get him to do this early WB chat.Ringo gives us an overview of his career from start to his then current work with Peter David on Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. We also talk about his Fantastic Four run with Mark Waid , Tellos, the series he co-created with Todd Dezago, and his DC work on Adventures Of Superman. Wieringo passed away this weekend, at the young age of 44. Way too soon for this incredible talent and all around good guy. Thanks for all the entertainment Mike , and rest in peace.John Siuntres
