On this episode of Comic Book Block, we crack open Jason Aaron’s Bug Wars—the comic where your backyard becomes a war zone and every blade of grass hides a brutal tiny world. Slade Slaymaker doesn’t just get shrunk; he gets drafted into the worst HOA on earth, where ant armies gut each other, beetle riders charge rent in blood, and mosquito hoardes make your last camping trip look like a Disney vacation.

We’ll talk cursed amulets, insect politics, and mosquito hoardes that make Florida look safe. It’s Conan the Barbarian in the grass, Game of Thrones under a lawn chair, and somehow still less traumatizing than your last family barbecue.🎧 Listen now: Bug Wars — Childhood wonder, but with spider witches.
