The epic retelling of the birth of the DCU by the late, great Darwyn Cooke

In honor of Halloween, We are reviewing Creepy 1 and 7 from 1964

Were the best at what we do... and what we do is ramble

Superman plopped smack dab in the middle of mother russia. You won’t believe what happens next!

In 1966, Kirby and Lee were on fire! In 6 issues of Fantastic Four, they introduced The Inhumans, Silver Surfer, Galactus and Black Panther and the awesome classic story ‘This Man, This Monster’ ta boot!

There is nothing not to love about the intro to Galactus. Listen to us barf praise all over it!

Good Life!

In 1978, DC comics published one of the silliest stories in comics history (even by comic book standards).

Superman vs. Mohammed Ali was originally published as “All-New Collectors Edition #C-56”

1974 saw the last time Kirby an Simon worked together in the form of a revamped Sandman. This is a very underrated book and all the people that helped out just made it that much more special. Check it out!

In 1975, DC comics released a comic series which was (somehow) composed of only first issues. DC 1st Issue Special had 12 different issue 1’s done by a variety of creators with a bunch of new characters and some familiar ones. Among these were three titles done by the King, Jack Kirby on his way out the door from DC. In this episode we review all 3.
