Dante Bosco stops by Comics & Kicks to reflect on a career that’s touched generations — from playing Rufio in Hook alongside Robin Williams, to voicing Zuko in Avatar: The Last Airbender. He opens up about being a Filipino actor in Hollywood, growing up as a self-described “mutant,” and how identity, struggle, and creativity all shaped his journey. This one’s all heart.

Kel Mitchell pulls up to Taboo’s Comics and Kicks for a ride through pure ’90s nostalgia! He breaks down his Good Burger era, growing up as a child star on All That, and all the wild stories from Nickelodeon’s golden years. Kel also talks about his Chicago roots — from hitting b-boy battles and tagging graffiti walls to repping hip-hop culture on screen.

And it wouldn’t be Comics and Kicks without sneakers: Taboo and Kel unbox two legendary pairs of Jordans, swap childhood show memories, and dive deep into how hip-hop, comedy, and sneaker culture shaped their lives. This one’s got it all — classic characters, deep cuts, and the stories that made an entire generation.

Welcome to the Comics & Kicks pilot — Taboo (Jimmy Gomez) invites you into his world of toys, comics, custom Jordans, and raw storytelling. Known globally for the Black Eyed Peas, Taboo opens up about his roots in East LA, his matriarch family, and how pop culture shaped his journey — from backyard wrestling figures to writing authentic Indigenous heroes for Marvel.#Taboo #comicsandkicks #blackeyedpeas #sneakerculture #comicbookcommunity #marvelcomics #jordansneakers #popculture #Nostalgia #IndigenousRepresentation
