Never Stay Dead: A Comic Book Podcast

In this conversational ramble, Matt and Damian discuss generational differences in comic book reading and ponder who their number one comic book writer of all time would be. This is the conversation that immediately followed last episode's discussion of Tokyo Ghost and is basically a series of digressions.

Join us--Matt and Damian--as we discuss the graphic novel Tokyo Ghost by Rick Remender, Sean Murphy and Matt Hollingsworth. This story can be read as ten individual comic book issues, two paperback volumes or one "deluxe" hardback volume.

In this episode Matt and Damian discuss New Gods #6 & #7 from Jack Kirby's original 11 issue run of this central text of his 4th World creation.

In this Episode Matt and Damian take a look at the Silver Surfer via Silver Surfer Parable by Stan Lee and Moebius, a one shot Silver Surfer (listed at Volume 2) by Stan Lee and John Byrne and the first three issues of the current Silver Surfer: Black by Donny Cates and Trad Moore. But that's not all: the conversation extends into a multitude of subjects from Venom and Carnage, to collecting habits, to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the Spirit by Will Eisner, original art collecting and so much more!

In this episode Matt and Damian discuss the two issue Spectre meets Batman story in Detective Comics 1006 and 1007. The also discuss facsimile comics, X-men, Spider-man, Silver Surfer and other current comics goings on.

Matt and Damian discuss their recent comic book reading and promise the podcast is not dead, with more to come soon.

There was a glitch around the 33 minute mark where technical problems caused us to lose 5 or 10 minutes of the conversation. You'll hear a bit of our theme music and then the conversation will abruptly move on to a new subject.

In this episode Matt and Damian discuss the Wildstorm comics series Sleeper Season One and Two by writer/artist team Ed Brubaker and Sean Philips--with a brief dive into Point Blank a mini-series that predates Sleeper written by Brubaker.

Apologies for the rough audio, created by unknown problems with Damian's mike. By the time Damian realized that something had gone wrong it was too late to re-record the episode.

This time around we decided to tackle Transmetropolitan by Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson, in collected editions. Damian read the first three trade volumes of Transmet for the first time and Matt re-read the first five volumes. This gave us plenty to talk about!

Matt and Damian are dedicated to discussing comic books, but this movie strikes so close to the comic book zone that we decided to record a "bonus" episode to share our thoughts on "Spiderman: Into the Spiderverse."

This time Matt and Damian try to read issues #3, 11, 14 & 15 of Marvel Comics' Conan the Barbarian from the very early 70's featuring scripts by Roy Thomas and art by Barry Windsor-Smith and various inkers.
