Possum In Peril Weekly Comics Talk

Possum And Peril are back from the being alive mines to bring you another scandalous, titillating episode of comics talk with the girls!

In this week’s episode, we talk about the crushing gravitational pull of the black hole of transmisogyny in comics; remembering Rachel Pollack and giving trans women their flowers; The Glorious Thousand Year Gay Agenda in Sins Of Sinister and the direction of the X-Line after the fall; Stephen King’s It in the age of 4Chan and darkweb snuff p*rn in World Tree #1; Black gay people and sexual workers at the heart of the history of jazz in Deep Cuts #1; and the first non-Vertigo/Young Animal DP book that really gets the Doom Patrol over in Unstoppable Doom Patrol #2.

This week the clock strikes midnight because it’s TYNION TIME! Possum and Peril are talking about the homo horrors of James Tynion IV, feat. The Nice House On The Lake, Sandman: Nightmare Country, and Something Is Killing The Children (vol 1-3), as well as a special guest drag race number by Sins Of The Black Flamingo.
