The bracket ends here.

After weeks of voting, debating, and some brutal eliminations, the Moving Panels Villain Bracket has been narrowed down to the Final Four.

On this episode, we reveal which villains survived Round 2 and made it to the final stage — and then we take over from there.

No more polls.
No more audience voting.
This time, we make the call.

We break down each finalist, compare performances, motivations, legacy, and impact… and debate our way to one final decision:

Who is the greatest live-action comic book or graphic novel villain of all time?

Expect strong opinions, tough choices, and at least one argument that could go either way.

The tournament ends here.

It’s March Madness on Moving Panels, and this year we’re shining the spotlight on villains. This week, Laramy Wells is joined by Justin Baker to dive into The Suicide Squad — a chaotic, violent, and surprisingly heartfelt entry in the DC universe. From obscure comic book characters to one of the Justice League’s strangest villains, the crew breaks down the cast, the comic connections, and why this movie embraces the weird in all the best ways. Plus, stick around for our official rating and a comic recommendation you won’t want to miss.Check out our website: https://movingpanelspodcast.com/

Sometimes the most unforgettable moments in comic book movies don’t belong to the heroes — they belong to the villains.

In this Moving Panels: One Shot, Laramy Wells and Justin Baker dive into some of the greatest villain moments in comic book movie history. From chilling speeches to shocking victories, these are the scenes where the bad guys completely take over the story. Whether it’s a master plan finally revealed, a hero being pushed to their limits, or a villain proving just how dangerous they really are, these moments remind us why great villains are just as important as great heroes.

Join us as we talk about the scenes where the villains totally owned the moment.

On this episode of Moving Panels, Laramy Wells and cohost Tim Williams continue their March Madness month focusing on great comic book villains by diving into Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

Along the way, they discuss the groundbreaking animation, the rise of Miles Morales as Spider-Man, and the creative designs of the many Spider-People across the multiverse—including Spider-Gwen, Spider-Man Noir, Spider-Ham, and Peni Parker.

They also explore the film’s memorable villains like Kingpin, Doctor Octopus, and Green Goblin, while connecting the movie to the comic storyline Spider-Verse—where Morlun and the Inheritors hunt Spider-People across the multiverse.

Who is the greatest live-action comic book or graphic novel villain of all time?

On this episode of Moving Panels, we build the bracket that will decide exactly that.

From iconic heavyweights like The Joker and Thanos… to television titans like Kingpin and Homelander… to graphic novel monsters straight out of Sin City… and yes, even Parker Posey’s corporate chaos from Josie and the Pussycats — no villain is safe.

We debate the rules.
We define what makes a “great” villain.
We argue about seeding.
And we lock in the official Top 16.

This is the episode where the chaos begins.

The tournament starts now.

This week on Moving Panels, Laramy Wells is joined by Tim Williams to discuss The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

What does it actually mean to carry the shield?

We dive into Sam Wilson’s journey toward becoming Captain America, the emotional weight of Isaiah Bradley’s story, Bucky Barnes’ slow and painful road to redemption, and why John Walker might be one of the most fascinating “villains” the MCU has introduced.

This isn’t just a superhero series about action and legacy — it’s a story about identity, accountability, and whether a symbol can evolve to represent everyone.

Plus, we explore the comic book roots behind the series and ask the big question: was this Marvel at its boldest?

Happy Valentine’s Day from Moving Panels! 💝
Laramy and Bethany team up for a Date Night episode on Tamara Drewe, the countryside romantic comedy-drama adapted from Posy Simmonds’ graphic novel and inspired by Far from the Madding Crowd.

Is it charming? Is it chaotic? Is it a good date night pick?

It’s time for our annual Valentine’s Day Date Night reveal.

In this Moving Panels One Shot, Laramy brings Bethany along as he walks through the process of choosing this year’s Valentine’s movie — from questionable AI suggestions and past date-night picks to romantic choices that absolutely did not make sense. Along the way, they talk about what actually makes a good Valentine’s movie, how classic literature unexpectedly enters the conversation, and why not every comic book adaptation is meant for a romantic evening.

Bethany doesn’t know the movie going in, and neither do you.

Join us for the debate, the banter, and the build-up to the surprise that will define this year’s Moving Panels Valentine’s Day Date Night episode.

In this episode of Moving Panels, Laramy Wells is joined by Gerry D from Totally Rad Christmas to dive into Season 1 of Marvel’s Daredevil. The conversation explores how the series redefined superhero television with its grounded tone, brutal action, and deeply human take on Matt Murdock.

Laramy and Gerry break down the show’s strongest episodes, examine one that doesn’t quite land, and dig into the comic book roots that shaped the season—especially Frank Miller’s The Man Without Fear and Born Again. They also discuss Wilson Fisk as one of Marvel’s most compelling villains, the role of Catholic guilt and spirituality in Daredevil’s story, and why this season remains essential viewing years later.
