XTREME! AWESOME! Those are just a couple of the words to describe comics in the 90s. Join us on our continuing series of comic books through the decades as we jump in with our JNCO jeans and brightly colored fanny packs. Death of Superman, The Man Who broke the Bat, and the crazy mercenary that had horribly drawn feet join the fold as Image and independent publishers dominated the comic book landscape. We discuss some of the biggest events of the time and how a failed attempt for Jim Shooter to buy Marvel led to the creation of Valiant comics and so much more. Join us as we chat about the rise of Trade Paperbacks, Variant Covers, and how every gimmick that arose in the 90s has made its way back into mainstream comics today. #comics #popculture #podcast https://linktr.ee/MagicCityPodcast Appease the Algorithm Gods!

A certain recent variant cover controversy got us thinking about other variant cover controversies that have gone on to raise the blood pressure of some fans. Although these variants may not involve additions to the cover after they were printed, they did involve over-sexualized representations of characters or images of a traumatic situation. Join us as we discuss variant covers that were either pulled from shops due to fan outcry, cancelled completely, or altered before distribution. #controversy #comics #podcast https://linktr.ee/MagicCityPodcast Appease the Algorithm Gods!

Variant Covers! Crossovers! Trading cards! Misha and Matthew look back on the wild world of ‘90s comic book stores!

Hello Friends, Over the course of the next few months, I will be sharing our formerly Patreon-exclusive content to the main Chris and Reggie feed.  We're going to start with the first episode of Comix Tawk... which was more or less, Reggie and I committing some of our Pre-Treadmill warm-up chatter to properly recorded audio. For our first exclusive outing, we discussed the contentious and controversial topic of comics book variant covers... the glut, the exploitation, and how they're affecting the comics industry and retailers. I hope you enjoy this trip down memory lane... and, please look forward to more. Originally Released: November 1, 2018 -- weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com

Probably the last time we’ll talk about Action Comics #1000. This time, how the Midnight Release went, and how it compares to previous midnight releases. It sure seems like Marvel wants a piece of DC’s Action cover success with all their upcoming Amazing Spider-Man #800 covers (with still more to -be-announced). Too bad they’re going about it in a way that doesn’t help build excitement. X-CLASSIFIED, written and drawn by CLASSIFIED starring CLASSIFIED sure isn’t the way to solicit a title. We really like Esad Ribic’s art, but not his cover to Fantastic Four #1. Lots of new customers in this week couldn’t find our New Releases. INFIDEL #2 is as good as #1, and THE DAMNED #9 is so good! As is BE PREPARED. Michael Kupperman has “All The Answers.” We think our Book Party book club revival is already coming to an end. Helping a colleague work thru his upcoming venture’s early issues as part of a brain trust. Genre-racking was as good of an idea as we hoped it would be.

This year has seen the rise of the term 'alternate fact' - the phrase was used to describe demonstrable falsehoods in an attempt to make them seem real.This particular podcast, recorded earlier in the year, is inspired by the term. Alternate universes abound in the comics world, some to much greater effect and fan acclaim than others - we invited the Variant Covers team of Greg Nell, Limpho Moeti and Nas Hoosen to discuss which comic alternate universes were their favourites.

To kick off Season 4, we decided to take a slightly different angle on an age old facet of geek culture, regardless of interest: he scenario argument. It could be book versus movie: which was better? Who would win: uperman vs Hulk? Kirk vs Picard vs Sisko vs Janeway etc. etc. Tech geeks could argue over which flavour of operating system is better. Sports geeks argue about which their top five players of all time, or which championship team would beat any other championship team.Part of the fun of being a geek is the ability to play around with the variables, put them in different situations and see what happens. Earlier this year, Vittorio and I sat down with the Variant Covers crew of Limpho Moeti, Greg Nell and Nas Hoosen to throw around some scenarios of our own, but not in argument format: if you could have access to any comic book artist for a commission, what work would you have them create? Money was no object, nor was time - this conversation was more about which artists we cherish and hold dear, and what we would like to seem them create.

A topic that could be discussed for hours, variant covers on comic books. Are they the greatest thing for collectors

This week’s episode was recorded sometime in the past…! Nick and Tia spent the final moments of 2016 discussing Variant Covers in comic books. What is a variant cover? Why should I care? What’s the big deal? What’s the history? How do I get a variant cover? Nick and Tia dive deep into all of these questions and more! Relevant Links/Information Nick – @dethstarplnz Tia – @PortraitOfmMeX This week’s music was by Infinity Shred. This week’s episode was produced by Mike Rapin and edited by Zander Riggs.

With the festive season just around the corner, you're going to need help with gift ideas for the comic geek in your life (or even for yourself if you want to dip your toe into the deep comic pool). The Variant Covers team steps into the breach to help identify the best comics of 2017 to make your shopping decisions much easier!

The major crossover events for 2016 are DC's Rebirth and Marvel's Civil War 2, and The Variant Covers team is here to get you up to date with the origins of, and the latest happenings in, both series!

Captain America: Civil War hits South African cinemas this week, and The Variant crew have plenty to talk about. Greg, Limpho and Nas start off by reviewing the 2006 Marvel Comics storyline that the movie takes its name from, then moves on to ... well, plenty of other stuff. We even manage to talk about the movie at some point!

One of the biggest movies of the year next week, and it's tailor-made for comic fans everywhere to discuss the classic "who would win?" topic. This week, the Variant Covers team of Limpho Moeti and Nas Hoosen (sadly, we were Greg Nell-less this week) chat about the who would win this titanic battle, who should win this titanic battle, and talk about the best Batman V Superman storylines from the comics.

This week’s episode was recorded on November 1st, 2015. Mike is out this week and in his stead, Nick, James, and Paul manage to create a pretty stellar episode of the podcast. The chat what they read since the last episode, and move into their comic picks: Ninjak #9, Monstress #1, and Justice League: Darkseid War: The Flash. The main topic of this week’s episode circles around how you distinguish between buying comics in single issue or buying comics in collected editions. This leads into a discussion about variant covers where Paul doesn’t care, James loves the covers for himself sometimes, and Nick goes insane for a small moment.
