Episode 54 - Clickbaity Comic Book Listicle But Make It Fashion
In the spirit of Episode 15 we've recorded yet another two hour love session to our favorite things. This time around the topic is our favorite western comics. We each picked five which we dissect, discuss, and just generally gush about as we remember why we ever got into comics in the first place. Alex's picks: New X-Men (Grant Morrison, Frank Quitely, Chris Bachalo, Marc Silvestri, etc.), The Woods (James Tynion IV, Michael Dialynas), We3 (Grant Morrison, Frank Quitely), JLA (Grant Morrison, Howard Porter), a Mech Cadet Yu (Greg Pak, Takeshi Miyazawa) Trevor's picks: Black Bolt (Saladin Ahmed, Christian Ward), Batman: Arkham Asylum (Grant Morrison, Dave McKean), Batman: The Court of Owls (Scott Snyder, Greg Capullo), Batwoman: Elegy (Greg Rucka, J.H. Williams III), a Snotgirl (Bryan Lee O'Malley, Leslie Hung) You can find us and subscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Podcast Addict! Content warning: We're a fairly NSFW podcast that makes frequent use of reclaimed homophobic slurs. Beyond that we discuss spoilers for the series listed above, and topic-wise we discuss blood, gore, body horror, violence including violence against animals and sexual violence, bigotry, and problematique depictions of mental health-related issues.
