On this milestone 50th episode, Brian Michael Bendis makes his long overdue first appearance on the Pat Chat. We talk about how our association began 20 years ago, and talk about many of our shared memories and experiences at conventions.  We talk about the old Jinxworld forums, which helped launch many comic books and comic creators. Plus: a look back at the infamous Batman/Daredevil fiasco, and learn if he still wants to do this story. And...the origin story of the phrase 'breaking the internet.' A super-sized finale to 2024, clocking in at 2 hours. Enjoy this chat, and have a great holiday!  The Pat Chat returns in January 2025.  Be good.  Brian's website: jinxworld.com  Brian's work from Dark Horse  Instagram: @brianmbendis BlueSky: brianmbendis.bsky.social Music for the show by Sleepy Sword.
