  • Too much friction

    The interview episodes are great. When they have creators on the show, they ask intelligent questions and get below the surface with their subjects. However, I listen mainly for The Stack, brief thumbnail reviews of new comics each week, and that’s becoming an unpleasant experience. Too often it devolves into Alex and Justin piling on Pete and deliberately goading him into anger or frustration. Pete, on the other hand, is easily goaded. Every week I find myself wondering if these guys are even r... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Comic Book Club: Saladin Ahmed
Q: How does the coordination between the main ThunderCats title and the Cheetara book work?
Initially separate and freeing for both books to establish their own identities, with later connectivity rather than a heavy, iron-handed Marvel-style editorial control; collaboration remains mutual but with room for individual storytelling.
Comic Book Club: Saladin Ahmed
Q: Why Cheetara specifically as the focus for a solo title?
A shared love for the character and the opportunity to explore a more complex, multifaceted portrayal—combining mystic elements, speed, and a strong general/leader persona in a way that hadn't been fully realized before.
Comic Book Club: Saladin Ahmed
Q: What led you to jump over to the realm of ThunderCats?
The collaboration with editor Nick Cosby, prior conversations about Dynamite properties, and finding the right moment to explore a ThunderCats project that could support a long-running ongoing series rather than a standalone mini.
Comic Book Club Bonus: Fred Van Lente Swashbuckles With Vampyrates
Q: how did you go from title to actual execution of the plot of the book?
We started with a tiny kernel of logic and then spun it into a full world where vampires rule, pirates challenge that order, and the setting allows for complex political and social dynamics, which then guided character arcs like Nira de Winter and the action-packed, world-building-rich plot.
Comic Book Club: Kelly Thompson Is Raising The Stakes With Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Q: What is it like having to be so secretive about this?
Thompson explains that secrecy is meant to preserve the reading experience and manage spoilers, even though it's challenging and induces doubt about what can be talked about publicly.
