  • 254 - Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees + Ultimates #1
    2025/10/29

    It's been a little while since we did a non-superhero indie comic, so we're reading about some cute animals living in a cute animal town where everyone knows everyone and they're all happy... until the murders start happening.

    It's Patrick Horvath's Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees, and it's simultaneously adorable and gruesome.

    We're taking a look at the first volume to see how apt the Dexter comparisons are.

    Then, we're starting a new long read with The Ultimates #1, in which our alternative universe Avengers team... is mostly absent.

    Next Time: Silver Surfer (2014) #1-5 by Dan Slott & Mike Allred!

    We'll find out in issues 57-64!

  • 252 - X-Factor by Peter David: The 2000s Run + Thunderbolts #25
    2025/09/30

    We loved Peter David's X-Factor so much last time, so we're going back in for more! Except this time we're taking a look at his 2005 reboot of the title, coming hot off the heels of House of M and Decimation.

    We've still got Multiple Man struggling with controlling his dupes, but now we've got depowered mutants and an inexplicably omnipotent little girl to deal with.

    Then we finish up our long read of Thunderbolts with #25, in which they take down 25 supervillains and we see who's behind the Crimson Cowl.

    Next Time: We finish up Alan Moore's Swamp Thing run with Volume 6 (Issues 57-64)!

    We're reading his first arc in issues #71-75 and then jumping forward to a fun therapy issue with #87.

    It gets weird.

    Then we're getting to the end of our long read of Thunderbolts with #24, where Citizen V stops being a dudette in the shadows!

    Did you know Superman hates racism? It's true, he's been fighting against it for decades now!

    We're taking a look at Superman Smashes the Klan from 2019 by Gene Luen Yang and art by Gurihiru, which is not just set in the 1940s, but also based on an old radio play from the 1940s.

    As the Klan makes their presence known in Metropolis to scare away a new Chinese family, Clark learns more about embracing his alien origins.

    Then we continue Thunderbolts with issue #22, where Hercules comes in to cause some chaos.

    We're taking a look at James Robinson's 1995 reboot of the golden age character with art from Tony Harris, and we get to meet FIVE Starmen in this book!

    He's not exactly a household name. I barely even knew there was one Starman. We learn all about them in issues 0-5.

    When you mix Chris Claremont with Frank Miller, you get Wolverine and ninjas. It's as simple as that.

    We're taking a look at Wolverine's first self-titled comic, a 4-issue mini-series from 1982 where Logan goes to Japan and lots of people die.

    Then the Thunderbolts start heading in a new direction with issue #20, where a surprise guest wants to join the team!
