New Characters are the lifeblood of stories and new characters often drive stories. But what gives them staying power? This week we cover making new characters and some of our favorite standouts since 2010!

We discuss the most notable stories about plagues, outbreaks, and epidemics in comic books. While the world being frozen virtually in place by COVID-19 is a harrowing and bizarre circumstance, we find that stories about diseases are hardly rare and have certainly made an impact on the medium.

Some superhero adventures are so bombastic that they’re literally out of this world.  When comics get cosmic they can’t be contained by a single planet, and instead, they span the stars. On this episode we dig into the DC Universe’s cosmic comics and talk about our favorite characters and stories that blaze a trail across the spaceways. Join us as we leave Metropolis and Gotham behind, and set our sites to places like Rann, the Source Wall, and other destinations far beyond.

We break down Marvel's first 6 movies of Phase 3. As the end of the Infinity Saga draws closer did the MCU knock it out of the park or was it just the same stuff we have seen before? Let's dive into the Strange, a Civil War and the King of Wakanda!

Whatever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, and if what kills you is a glowing green rock, then you might be a superhero of some kind.

In the world of cowls and capes, when danger strikes and lives are in jeopardy you need a superhero to save the day, but sometimes the hero that shows up doesn't conform to the typical idea of the beloved boy scout. Sometimes their methods are a little unorthodox. Sometimes their motivations are a bit unsavory. And sometimes they're just plain out of their minds. In that case, you've got a full-blown antihero on your hands, and you're going to want to listen to this episode. We ask the question of what is an antihero, what makes them so interesting, and we spotlight a few of our favorites.
