White - Venom Unleashed #15 uncut!Let's dig into our two poll questions. The first was:Jordan hinted that one moment in Death Spiral has been locked in since the very beginning of planning the event. What are you most excited to see when that moment arrives?A whopping 40% said they'd like to see a major MJ's symbiote relationship (30.8% said a big Eddie vs. Carnage throwdown). Given how strongly readers responded to the idea of Mary Jane's symbiote journey, what was it about pairing MJ with a symbiote that felt essential to Death Spiral, and how early did that relationship start shaping the story?AIPT: For the second poll, we asked:Jordan suggests MJ might be shifting from “anti-hero” to something else entirely. What do YOU think her 2026 role will look like?Over 50% of the answers said they want something they haven't even guessed yet (second place was a full street-level hero arc with 32%). Might they be on the right track? AIPT: Venom #253 is out now (January 7th), and with it's a whole new ballgame with AIM. Madame Masque is a character not often used, at least in the last decade. Might you have a favorite story she's kicked butt in?AIPT: And for our monthly gotcha question: What's a better TV show, Buddies or Friends?Onto fan questions:Spencer asks: What can you tell us about Torment?One more about Torment from Patrick: Was the name of Death Spiral's villain, Torment, inspired by the Todd McFarlane story, or is it a coincidence that the name has a history with Spider-Man?Ol' Monster-Face asks: Last time you got asked about taking the story in a space opera direction… What about a Wild West theme? "Death Spiral" does look like it could set up a classic "The Good The Bad And The Ugly" standoff…Barrett asks: With two big Spider / Symbiote events coming up very soon will the main ASM book and Venom books both be tie-ins for the foreseeable future?Anonomous asks: Will Dylan and Sleeper be an important role in Death Spiral? They are related to both Eddie and the Venom symbiote after all.Murphy asks: Did you look at any prior stories when writing the Rick Jones and Toxin bond? It reminds me of the relationship he had with Genis, especially when he went off the rails.Garlador asks: As a repository of host memories, Venom is uniquely aware of many characters current conflicted feelings - Peter, MJ, Eddie, Dylan, Flash, etc. That's been an off-limits locked box issue with MJ, but can we expect to see Venom share more of prior hosts' buried feelings with her soon, or is that too messy for now?RadiantBlue asks: Which Venom host is your favorite?Midnighter82 asks: Symbie, Spider-Man's symbiote companion in his galactic adventure, is he bound to a host or not? Jimmy has a food and calories question: So, what is it like for Mary Jane in her daily life? The symbiote probably weighs at least twice her weight and leaves a bunch of goop all over after fights, so presumably that would be lots more food than she would be used to having.Anonomous asks: Its kinda frustrating seeing VENOM everywhere and no Carnage. If you could would you tackle a carnageverse? Besides the Anne Lethal Protector universe, are there worlds where carnage is an anti-hero? Jeduwin asks: As a fan of Eventuality, how much is it kept in mind when you're writing Eddie Brock? Its existence seems like it shifts where Eddie's stories are headed, since all roads lead to the King in Black.Another Flash question from Symbiobro: In All-New Venom #10, we got to see a deep dive into both MJ's and the symbiotes relationship with Eddie, but Flash Thompson also played a big role in both these people's lives. Can we expect a similar delve into how he helped shape the symbiote into what it is today?

We're talking comic books, real books, digital reading, and how we actually consume stories in 2025. From diving deep into Marvel Unlimited to cracking open physical comics from Epic Panels, we break down what's working, what's frustrating, and why reading order matters more than people admit. The conversation jumps from the Ultimates line and Ultimate Wolverine to Invincible's Battle Beast, Daredevil: Cold Day in Hell, and why some comics are just not made for casual reading. 00:00 Intro – Getting Back Into Comics (Digital vs Physical) 00:25 Buying Random Comics & Epic Panels Shoutout 01:22 Comic Commentary, Stan Lee, and Jim Lee Footage 01:38 Why The Ultimates Is So Good (And Ending Too Soon) 02:09 Retelling Comics Without Copyright Headaches 03:18 Marvel Unlimited's Strengths and Its Biggest Trade-Off 03:41 Reading House of M, Avengers Disassembled, and Full Context 04:16 How Fast We Actually Read Comics 05:00 Why Reading Order Matters (And Why It's Overwhelming) 06:15 Retcons, Timeline Chaos, and Comic Book Confusion 07:00 Comic Book FOMO vs Casual Reading 07:52 Ultimate Spider-Man #1 and Absolute Batman 09:09 Project Hail Mary Review (Avoid the Trailers) 10:35 Why the Storytelling in Project Hail Mary Works 12:18 Audiobooks, Audible, and Reading Goals for 2026 12:35 Invincible Returns: Battle Beast Explained 14:18 Power Scaling in Invincible 15:00 Ultimate Wolverine and the Best X-Men Stories Right Now 17:44 Daredevil: Cold Day in Hell (Old Man Daredevil) 20:39 Why This Daredevil Story Hits So Hard 21:16 Epic Fantasy Reading: Stormlight Archive & Brandon Sanderson 24:12 Name of the Wind and Unfinished Series Debate 25:02 Final Book Shoutouts and Wrap-Up We also get into: Why Marvel Unlimited is great… and where it falls short The Ultimates run and why it feels destined to end badly Invincible, Battle Beast, and power scaling done right Old-man superheroes, brutal endings, and earned tragedy How reading habits differ (single issues vs full arcs) Audiobooks, Audible goals, and giant fantasy commitments This is a loose, honest conversation about reading for joy, context, and obsession — not checking boxes.

As part of the annual 12 Days of The Comic Source countdown to Christmas, Jace of The Comic Source sits down fireside with returning guest Chris Condon for a wide-ranging holiday conversation that reflects on Condon's career, creative process, and current projects. The discussion covers the long-anticipated return of That Texas Blood with Jacob Phillips, including its evolving time-period structure, emotional grounding, and why revisiting the series feels like coming home, before moving into reflections on Condon's concluding work on Green Arrow and the personal themes shaping its finale. The episode also explores Ultimate Wolverine and its real-time storytelling approach in Marvel's Ultimate Universe, the Cold War-era horror and immersive back-matter of News from the Fallout, and the upcoming Vertigo revival title The Peril of the Brutal Dark, which reimagines an early creator-owned concept with a noir-adventure lens. The conversation closes on holiday traditions, seasonal nostalgia, and the role of comics as a lifelong constant, blending professional insight with personal reflection in the relaxed Fireside Chat format.

Did you two discuss tone, continuity, or the meta-narrative of Bachman's legacy?Post-Apocalyptic Themes:You've described this world as “the world has ended and it's rebuilding.” What emotional or thematic space did you want to explore in that aftermath, compared to the usual “apocalypse in progress” stories?Social Commentary:The project examines misinformation and the role of local journalism — how do those themes mirror our current media landscape, and what kind of response are you hoping to evoke from readers?Physical vs. Digital Experience:With both a newspaper edition and a digital version available, what do you hope readers gain from physically holding this story in their hands versus reading it online?Continuing the Bachman Tradition:Bachman's work was often darker and more cynical than King's mainline fiction. Does The End Times lean into that same spirit of anger and disillusionment?(Fun / Silly Question):If The End Times really were the last surviving newspaper on Earth, what headline would you want your byline to appear under? (“Local Writer Saves Humanity”? “Coffee Shortage Ends Civilization”?

Rylend, what drew you to Evel Knievel as a character for a comic, and how did you approach blending historical fact with fictional storytelling?3. The series is set during the lead-up to the Caesars Palace fountain jump. How did you decide which real-life events to keep and which moments to fictionalize?4. For readers who may not be familiar with Evel beyond the stunts, what do you hope The Last Gladiator will teach them about who he was as a person?5.

Evel Knievel has inspired movies, documentaries, and countless imitators. What makes comics the right medium to tell this particular story?7. (Fun) If Evel Knievel were still at it today, what stunt do you think he'd attempt just to outdo himself — and how would you put it in the comic?

How do you view the role of levity in darker narratives, and was that hard to weave into the story?****Green Arrow has taken on a grounded, street‑level tone, focusing on character interactions and big‑pharma themes. How did you adapt Ollie's voice and moral compass to fit that setting while keeping iconic elements intact?**Between writing for Green Arrow, scripting Ultimate Wolverine, and launching News From The Fallout, you're balancing very different tones and genres. How do you switch creative gears between mainstream superhero work and experimental creator-owned stories?Ultimate Wolverine launched early this year—what fresh angles or emotional truths are you exploring compared to past Wolverine iterations?Your work this year traverses themes of isolation (Fallout), social justice (Green Arrow), and visceral heroism (Wolverine).

In Predator Kills the Marvel Universe, you've teased a meditative tone as much as a brutal one. Can you talk about how you approached giving emotional weight to what could easily be a pure spectacle series?2. We know Frank Castle is at a low point in Punisher: Red Band, but you've also said it's a story about who Frank becomes when he has nothing left. What's the most surprising aspect of Frank you think readers will discover in this series?3. We here at AIPT have covered the use of the Punisher symbol via 3rd party swag outside of Disney, we even saw its use in the recent Daredevil show, what's your take on the Punisher logo and its use?4. With both Red Band and Predator Kills launching this year, you're leaning into stories with serious ultraviolence. As a writer, how do you decide when violence is meaningful versus when it's gratuitous?5. You mentioned in the Predator Kills the Marvel Universe press release that some heroes are more “killable” than others. Without giving anything away, was there a particular Marvel character that was the hardest to write a death for—either logistically or emotionally?6. You've done a lot of work balancing character legacy with reinvention—especially with Hellverine and now Red Hulk. How do you decide what to preserve and what to explode when you're writing these kinds of legacy figures?7. Spider-Man and Predator is a wild matchup. Can you tease what their conflict reveals about Peter Parker that we haven't seen before?8. Both Red Hulk and Hellverine feel like "dark mirror" characters—but wildly different in tone and execution. Do you see thematic overlap between them? How do you avoid them becoming just monstrous versions of other heroes?9. You're clearly building (or helping shape) a kind of hyper-violent sublabel within Marvel between Red Band, Predator crossovers, and these monstrous anti-heroes. Would you want to keep expanding this “Percy-verse”? And if so, who would you tap next?10. (Fun one): If Predator could take on one Marvel team in a cooking competition, who would it be—and what's Predator's signature dish?Short novel as a newspaper - subscribe - start November - post-apocalyptic  “The End Times” Station 11 meets our townbadhandbooks.com

In shops June 25, 2025, News From The Fallout is a chilling new sci-fi horror miniseries from writer Chris Condon (That Texas Blood, Ultimate Wolverine) and visionary artist Jeffrey Alan Love (The Last Battle at the End of the World, The Thousand Demon Tree). We sit down with the creators to dive into the radioactive heart of this six-issue saga. "Set in 1962 Nevada, this story follows Otis Fallows, a U.S. Army private and the sole survivor of a nuclear test gone wrong. As a strange contaminant spreads through the atmosphere, turning people rotten, Otis flees the top-secret base in search of safety, if such a place even exists." Subscribe for more creator interviews, comic coverage, and all things Paneloids!

News From the Fallout is one of those horror titles that sticks to your heart like tar. It has a lingering fear that seeps deep into you the longer you sit with the book. It's an incredible piece of work from the Writer CHRIS CONDON (THAT TEXAS BLOOD, Ultimate Wolverine), artist JEFFREY ALAN LOVE (The Last Battle at the End of the World, The Thousand Demon Tree), letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, and designer Michael Tivey. I was lucky enough to sit down with the writer and artist to have a long discussion about the series that digs into some rather heavy topics about the book. Pre-order it now! In 1962 Nevada, a nuclear bomb test goes horribly awry and unleashes a contaminate into the atmosphere that turns people rotten. Otis Fallows, a private in the U.S. Army who is present for the test and is the only known survivor, flees the secret army base in search of a safe haven—but does such a place exist? Here is an excerpt from my review of the first two issues, which you should pre-order now: I grew up as a child in the 90's, seeing footage or references to nuclear fallout drills in all sorts of media. Watching those children my age crawl under their desks to escape the blast of a nuclear bomb's fallout seemed more like science fiction than something that was a real present threat anyone faced. Nothing catastrophic like that could ever happen in America, right? Well, in 3rd grade, I watched the Twin Towers fall on live television. So those tests didn't seem too far-fetched in my 9-year-old gray matter anymore.  With both the horrors that I witnessed and everything surrounding them, it felt like people's fears were heard loud and clear. They were echoed in everyone's hearts to try to stop them from happening again. There was no doubt that the fallout was inevitable.

What a doozy of a double week! We had some work things come up and honestly weren't feeling inspired with the lineup, so we've combined it! PLUS all the fire that came out last week. The solos overload our pullboxes and hearts at the same time. 3K's X-Men get told what's up by Scott and then respond in kind.
