EP.3 - The Atlantis Problem - A Review of Billionaires In Comics pt.3


Listen Later

Kareem, Ken, and Pat are back at it, continuing their review of billionaires in comics, and the results are as ridiculous as ever.

Doctor Doom’s debts are only the beginning. Along the way, the guys veer into tangents that somehow make perfect sense in comic book economics: how exactly Power Girl makes money, Superboy’s strange Gambit-like abilities, James Bond battling red tape just to lease a car, and Aquaman turning the “five-second rule” into a trillion-dollar ocean empire. It’s part financial roast, part pop culture deep dive, and all about the bizarre ways comics imagine wealth, power, and debt.

Expect sharp banter, absurd hypotheticals, and the kind of financial wisdom you’d only hear from superheroes and supervillains. Spoiler: Spider-Man still can’t pay his rent. #ComicBookBillionaires
