  • Batman, Junior and Robin, Senior

    Batman, Junior and Robin, Senior
    2025/09/10
    This week’s World’s Finest Wednesday takes us back to 1955 with one of the strangest Batman stories ever told: “Batman, Junior and Robin, Senior” from Detective Comics Issue 218 (DC Comics). When a mad scientist’s “youth and age gas” turns Batman into a reckless kid and Robin into the responsible adult, Gotham gets the Reverse Dynamic Duo—and chaos ensues. Zach and Mike break down the story panel by panel: youth gas, old gas, dogs getting de-aged into puppies, Batman forgetting who he is, Robin taking charge, and the immortal line, “You shouldn’t be squirting your gas around so freely.” It’s classic Golden Age weirdness, complete with wind machines saving stampeding horses and Batman identifying a bad guy by his ears.

  • Batman: A Death In The Family

    Batman: A Death In The Family
    2025/09/09
    It’s one of the most infamous Batman stories ever told: A Death in the Family (1988). Zach and Mike dive into the four-part saga where Jason Todd, the second Robin, went toe-to-toe with the Joker…and fans literally voted whether he would live or die. We break down the story beat by beat: Jason’s search for his real mother, Joker’s wild plan to sell a cruise missile in the Middle East, Ayatollah Khomeini making Joker a U.N. ambassador, Superman sucking up poison gas with “vacuum breath,” and of course—the brutal crowbar scene that sealed Jason’s fate. Along the way, we cover the behind-the-scenes history of the 900-number call-in vote, Jim Starlin’s dislike of Robin, and how close Jason actually came to surviving (spoiler: just 72 votes). It’s comic book history, comedy, and chaos—the BFH way.

  • Who Is Jason Todd?

    Who Is Jason Todd?
    2025/09/03
    Rockin’ Robin Summer continues with the second Boy Wonder himself—Jason Todd. Before he was the Robin fans voted to kill, Jason had some bizarre beginnings. Zach walks Mike through his Pre-Crisis origin as a circus kid in “The Flying Todds” (complete with a Guy Gardner haircut), his parents’ murder at the hands of Killer Croc, his awkward time living with Bruce Wayne, and the ridiculous custody battle where the villainess Nocturna tried to adopt him. We also cover Jason’s Post-Crisis reboot, where he’s introduced stealing the tires off the Batmobile, his hotheaded edge compared to Dick Grayson, and the shocking moment where Robin maybe (definitely) straight-up murdered a guy. It’s the messy, chaotic journey of Jason Todd. From knockoff Dick Grayson to the most controversial Robin of all time. #jasontodd #robin #batman #dccomics #dc #comicbookpodcast #brosfoesheroes #deathinthefamily Learn more about your ad choices.

    It’s the start of our Rockin’ Robin Summer! Zach tries his best to convince Mike that Robin isn’t useless by diving into one of the most acclaimed Boy Wonder stories: Robin: Year One. We cover Dick Grayson’s early adventures as Batman’s partner, his brutal run-in with Two-Face, his battles with Mad Hatter and Mr. Freeze, and the constant question...should a kid really be fighting Gotham’s worst criminals in pixie boots?

  • How Peacemaker Learned to Love Peace (And Kill For It)

    How Peacemaker Learned to Love Peace (And Kill For It)
    2025/08/20
    In this episode of Bros, Foes, & Heroes, Zach and Mike break down Peacemaker's first appearance in Charlton Comics, his bizarre “Peace Palace,” his stockpile of weapons he was never supposed to use, and his showdown with the evil Emil Bork (yes, Bork). Along the way, we cover how DC later reimagined him in the ’80s, why Alan Moore almost turned him into the Comedian in Watchmen, and how he evolved into the helmet-wearing anti-hero we know today.

    Peacemaker is back and he’s still trying way too hard. In this episode of Bros, Foes & Heroes, Zach and Mike revisit one of their all-time favorite modern DC stories, Peacemaker Tries Hard! (DC Comics, 2023) from Kyle Starks, Steve Pugh, Jordie Bellaire, and Becca Carey.

We break down the wildest moments, the surprisingly emotional beats, and why this comic perfectly captures everything ridiculous and lovable about Peacemaker. So grab your protein powder, put on your favorite helmet, and get ready for a second serving of Peacemaker’s over-the-top misadventures—complete with dogs named Bruce Wayne, demolition crews, and one very questionable bunker.
