Jake and Tyler welcome indie comic creator Brady Tagler (Plasman / Ink and Gamer) for a deep dive into his webtoon series, Dragon Ball/Spider-Man/Superman influences, and the realities of writing + drawing your own book.

They also break down Spider-Man: Brand New Day’s insane box-office run (a billion dollars in six days), the latest X-Men film casting news (Sadie Sink, Samara Weaving, Kit Connor), and deliver honest reviews of this week’s comics — including a standout Mortal Thor issue, Doom Quest, a What If…? Kraven story, and a very skippable crossover. Plus the usual unfiltered chaos, soundboard bits, and X-Men ’97 talk.

Tyler and Jake are back with a no-holds-barred Episode 263! They dive deep into X-Men '97 Episode 4 (holy shit, what an episode), break down the latest comics including the wild, mind-bending Dead Man series by W. Maxwell Prince (with Batman, Plastic Man, and fourth-wall-breaking afterlife chaos), and explore heavy-hitting reads touching on Absolute titles and more.

In the Long Box, they go full spectrum:

• Tyler geeks out over a Gore Verbinski/Sam Rockwell banger — a hilarious, original, anti-AI time-loop mindfuck that sticks with you.
• Jake gets emotional with A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (Tom Hanks as Mr. Rogers), talking compassion, mental health, processing feelings, and why kindness is punk rock.

Plus: Rants on late-stage capitalism destroying gaming (Microsoft layoffs at id Software, Sony’s all-digital future, EA Sports nickel-and-diming College Football), the importance of physical media, sitcom evolution, and plenty of unfiltered real talk.

Live from the AKC Andrew Downs Studios in central Iowa and powered by Revelton Distilling Company, this week on Off Panel Off Topic we deliver unfiltered, no-holds-barred comic talk.

We kick things off with a deep, spoiler-heavy breakdown of the new Supergirl movie starring Millie Alcock. We hand out our grades (C from one host, B/B- from the other), argue about the frustrating depowering sequences, the green sun/yellow sun plot decision that broke us in the theater, the boring villain, Lobo’s too-short screen time, Krypton flashbacks, and why this movie is catching way more bad-faith hate than it deserves. We also talk James Gunn’s DCU, the double standard female-led movies face, and why the coverage has felt especially gross.

Then we dive into the comics with full reviews and grades:

• Absolute Green Arrow #2 – Oliver Queen’s legacy, Connor Hawk, and whether the Emerald Archer is really dead
• Superman #20 by Jason Aaron – the massive King Shazam fight featuring Hawkman and Steel (this one goes hard)
• Absolute Wonder Woman #21 – Barbara’s transformation into Cheetah and her confrontation with Hecate
• Absolute Batman #21 – Bruce vs. the Robins, the Joker’s big entrance, and the Clayface tease that has us hyped

These Absolute books keep delivering banger after banger, and we break down exactly why.

Brought to you by Revelton Distilling Company, Iowa Beef Steakhouse, and Jenny Farrell with RE/MAX Concepts.

Drop your Supergirl take in the comments — was it better or worse than the discourse made it seem? Which Absolute book are you enjoying most right now? Full video on YouTube, audio on Spotify & Apple Podcasts. Real talk. No filters. No scripts. Turn it up.

Join Tyler & Jake for a wild, no-holds-barred Episode 261 of Off Panel Off Topic — live from the AKC Andrew Downs Studios! 🚀

The duo kicks things off with major DC animation news: Scott Snyder helming a fully CG adult Absolute Batman series, the Batman: Nightfall animated trilogy, a Joker anime miniseries, and a new Crypto kids show. They break down expectations, tones, and why this Absolute run is blowing up so fast.

Then they dive into Toy Story 5 — both saw it and came away impressed! Expect laughs over the Buzz Lightyear army, Combat Carl chaos, emotional Bonnie/Blaze moments, and why this creative team hit their stride after Toy Story 4. Nostalgia, aging voice actors, and heartfelt parenting vibes included.

Tyler opens up about his sudden iHeart radio layoff after 25+ years, shouting out colleagues, reflecting on resentment turning to relief, and how it led to bigger things with 3 Beards Media. Raw, real talk as always.

Finally, they go deep on Lobo: The Last Czarnian — the perfect over-the-top, gory, hilarious miniseries that launched the Main Man. Spelling bees, bar fights, regenerating teachers, Sons of Lobo fanatics, and why this remains peak Lobo chaos.

Unfiltered comic talk, tangents, Arnold impressions, wrestling drops, and friendship vibes. First live episodes energy is strong!
