We Considered Comics

Hey there ACCtion heroes!

Sorry we've been quiet. We've had some more illness, more real life work, and some technical difficulties. We hope that's behind us now -- and that we can get some more episodes in the tank in case we need to coast again.
But we aren't here to talk about that. oh no. We saw Shang -Chi and we invited Manuclear Bomb aka Manu to talk about it!

You can find more of Manu's work here:

Marty /adores/ the Metal Gear Solid -- Podcast Sans Frontieres -- and he hasn't played a metal gear game since the NES days. And yeah, he's also a patron. Check this show out!

Hey there ACCtion heroes! This week, your hosts Marty, Tim, and Nick do a deeper dive into Marvel's What If (episode 3 and 4) and a discussion into the future of marvel video games, including the PS Exclusive titles of Spider-man and Wolverine!
Come for the discussion on how What If carries on the legacy of the What if Brand. Stick around for Marty griping about console exclusive titles!

Hey there ACC-tion heroes! This week, our main story is on Shang-Chi! Tim will walk us through the creation of Marvel's magnificent martial-artist, the martial art lessons included in the black and white publication, and what modern stories do with our hero!

We're talking first episode of Disney+'s 'What if Series and a breakdown of what we know, so far, of 3 World 3 Moons -- a sub stack project helmed by one of our favorites, Jonathon Hickman.

Also, if you don't dig some of substack's writers, may I suggest donating to Brave Space Alliance!

We founded All Comics Considered to talk about comics that we love. Our Kirby scale is a tongue-in-cheek response to ratings -- we rate how much we like the book. And over the past six years, when we rated books we didn't like, we talked about why we did not like the book. More often than not, the response was 'this is not for me.'

Until today.
Adam and Zach from Battle of the Atom rate the Draco as the worst X-men story, and I ignored Adam's warning. I read it. Today, we talk about this comic and why it's just so darn bad.

Summer speeds by -- and if we learned anything about Loki is that we wish we could work with the Time Variance Authority to extend it just a little bit. Or maybe head to a timeline where folks wore masks and got vaccinated... But since Kang doesn't exist in the 404, we can't do either of those things. We might as well just recap Loki!

This is a full season recap, so spoilers if you haven't seen it all!

ACC-tion heroes, we shouldn't play favorites...but we will. Sean and Caitlin are some of our super star creators who have been wonderful interviewees. Today, we bring them both back to talk about Bliss' Trade, their new projects: Black Hammer for Caitlin, King Spawn for Sean, and what the future holds.

This week, Marty, Tim, and Nick jump into the new Disney+, Loki. Yes, it's 2 weeks behind -- but this is to give folks time to catch up with the show and see if our predictions are true.

For instance: Who are the Time Lords? (Marty says it's Kangs.) What's going on with the OTHER Loki? Is Owen Wilson's Moebius connected to another Marvel Character?

Join us for discussing a show that we're all pretty excited for!

The best laid plans and scripts of podcasters are often laid waste by real life. So when Nick takes a knee, what do Tim and Marty do? Why, we do another pullbox! This time, also featuring the graphic novel Tim gifted Marty: The Sword of Glass!

First, here's the article from Comics XF that Marty mentioned, written by Ritesh Babu. Read it!

Secondly, a lockjaw note: Marty kept calling Trinary, "trinity." We apologize for such a mistake and will do better when addressing mutants in the future.
