This podcast is so calming to listen to. You guys go perfectly in depth to each comic you cover. (Also you mentioned The Life of Chuck in the 200th episode. It’s one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. It’s one of King’s non-horror stories, like Shawshank. I read the Life of Chuck short story shortly following watching the movie—perfectly adapted. There was a narrator in the movie, so much of the original writing was in the movie. The movie just elevated the story. Highly recommend to anyone out ... more
A great resource for the comic storylines of my favorite characters!
Their discussions make me want to read / reread more comics and graphic novels!
This is one of the best podcast. Grizzy more insight onto the films you watch or you’re about to see. I’m loving the coverage of secret wars right now and I can’t wait for the movie because I’ll feel better prepared with this background knowledge.
Dive deep into the stories that are adapted for the big screen. It’s fun to hear the discussion, even if I haven’t read the comic or story they are talking about. Give it a listen!
