The 20 year battle for this character starts here! Spawn 9 by Todd McFarlane and Neil Gaiman.
updated
This oversized hardcover is more than just a reprint. TASCHEN scanned pristine copies from the finest pedigrees, restored them with incredible detail, and printed them on paper stock that perfectly captures the vintage look and feel of the originals. At over 700 pages, it’s both a reading experience and a work of art.
In this video, I flip through the book, show off the oversized format, and talk about why this run — with Stan Lee’s philosophical writing and John Buscema’s cosmic artwork — is one of Marvel’s most beloved.
If you’re a Silver Surfer fan, a collector of Marvel omnibuses, or just curious about TASCHEN’s deluxe comic editions, this is a must-see.

As a bonus, I’ve included a black-and-white edition, letting you soak in Kirby’s powerful linework without the colors.
This was Kirby in full cosmic adventure mode — and it remains one of the most important comics in Marvel history. With Black Panther’s MCU legacy still going strong, there’s no better time to revisit where it all began.

What happens when Superman and Clark Kent are split into two separate people? In DC Comics Presents #79 (cover date March 1985), the intergalactic gamblers Rokk and Sorban up the stakes—forcing Metropolis to deal with a Superman who can’t hide behind his secret identity and a Clark who has to get by without his Kryptonian powers. It’s a classic pre-Crisis thought experiment with Copper Age charm, illustrated by legend Curt Swan with inks by Al Williamson, written by Paul Kupperberg, edited by Julius Schwartz, and topped with a striking Eduardo Barreto cover. If you love “what if?” identity twists, newsroom drama, and old-school Superman heart, this one’s a gem.
In this video, I do a quick flip-through and chat about:
How splitting hero and alter-ego changes the stakes
Why Swan/Williamson’s linework still sings
Where this issue sits in DC Comics Presents history and the broader Superman mythos
Perfect for fans of Bronze/Copper Age DC, Daily Planet storytelling, and anyone curious how the Man of Steel holds up when you peel away the secret identity. Drop a comment if you own this issue or have a favorite DCCP team-up!

To mark the day, we connect Kirby’s legacy to the new Fantastic Four: First Steps vibe—set on Earth-828 (a perfect nod to 8/28). It’s the ideal pairing: a retro-futurist FF on the big screen and a vintage masterclass from Kirby himself on the page.
What’s in the flip-through
Big Kirby energy: full-page pencils, margin notes, and process peeks
Fantastic Four focus: Galactus-era imagery and unused/reconstructed FF pages
Context & commentary: why this issue matters for fans of Kirby, FF lore, and comic history
Who will love this
Fans of Jack Kirby, Fantastic Four, Silver Surfer, Galactus, Stan Lee collaborations, and anyone into original art, process books, and comics history.

This issue—“The Book of the Vishanti”—pairs Spider-Man & Doctor Strange against Doctor Doom & Dormammu, blending street-level stakes with big mystic threats. We’ll talk about Miller’s storytelling, Palmer’s finishes, O’Neil’s pace, and the wild “science + sorcery” plot hook readers still remember.

In today’s video, we explore Action Comics Annual #6, an intriguing Elseworlds tale written and drawn by John Byrne. This alternate history story imagines what would have happened if an ancestor of Kal-El had come to Earth centuries before Superman, just before the American Revolution, and sought to conquer the world.
We follow this powerful ancestor of Kal-El, who uses his superhuman abilities to take control of Earth’s future, reshaping history in his image. It’s a fascinating exploration of power, ambition, and legacy, and it’s a unique twist on the Superman mythos.
Byrne’s Elseworlds tales often explore alternate realities where the known world is flipped on its head, and Action Comics Annual #6 is no exception. If you're a fan of Superman, alternate histories, or unique "what if" stories.this comic has all that. Is it a must-read?

What do a 1949 gimmick comic and a 2008 metafictional epic have in common? 3D glasses — and Superman punching through the limits of reality.
In this video, we compare Superman 3-D: Three-Dimensional Adventures (1949) and Final Crisis: Superman Beyond 3D (2008) to explore how the Man of Steel evolved from Golden Age spectacle to multiversal consciousness.
We’ll talk about:
The history of Superman’s first 3D comic
How Grant Morrison turned 3D into a storytelling device
The role of 3D legend Ray Zone
Superman’s transformation into the “Thought Robot”
Why 3D became a metaphor for higher perception
Whether you love Silver Age kitsch or mind-bending metanarratives, this is the story of Superman like you’ve never seen him before — literally.

What if Marvel’s First Family wasn’t born from cosmic rays—but out of 1950s repression, gender roles, and emotional instability? In this video, we dive deep into Fantastic Four: Unstable Molecules—the Eisner Award-winning mini-series by James Sturm that reimagines Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm as real people living in postwar America.
We explore how this literary Marvel series was marketed as a true biography, break down each issue, and analyze the characters through the lens of 1950s culture. From Peyton Place and Beat poetry to the metaphor of Vapor Girl and the meaning of “unstable molecules,” this is the origin story you’ve never seen before.

in this video, we revisit Action Comics #592–593, the infamous two-part story written and drawn by John Byrne that features a mind-bending clash between Superman, Mister Miracle, and Big Barda. This 1987 tale remains one of the most debated Superman stories of the post-Crisis on Infinite Earths era, especially for how it handles the New Gods and Barda in particular.
Joining me is special guest Tommy Lombardozzi from the Jacked Kirby Podcast (https://flow.page/jackedkirby) as we unpack the controversy, explore its place in Byrne’s legacy, and examine how it reflects DC’s bold experimentation in the late '80s. With James Gunn’s Superman movie flying into theaters in July 2025, there’s no better time to revisit some of the Man of Steel’s wildest moments—and this one certainly qualifies.
Whether you're a Superman die-hard, a fan of the New Gods, or just curious how one of the most uncomfortable moments in Superman comics history played out, this episode delivers context, commentary, and comics history with a punch.

Despite its title, this book feels more like a traditional Marvel story than a bold leap into the future—and that's part of what makes it so strange. The issue also features a surprising appearance by none other than Doctor Doom.
I break down how this comic fits—or doesn’t—into the 2099 line, explore Hotz’s horror-tinged art (often compared to Kelley Jones), and discuss where this ranks among Marvel’s early 2000s experiments. If you’re into deep-cut superhero comics, Robert Kirkman’s lesser-known work, or are just counting down to the next big Black Panther, Wakanda Forecer, Iron Heart, or another MCU project, this one’s worth a second look.

This story us collected in Kryptonite Nevermore amzn.to/3YGOxJY
Today we’re looking at Superman #233, the iconic 1971 issue that kicked off the “Kryptonite Nevermore” storyline with one of the most famous Superman covers of all time by Neal Adams. This issue served as a soft reboot for Superman, updating the Man of Steel for the ’70s under editor Julius Schwartz. With gorgeous interior art by Curt Swan and Murphy Anderson, and a bold new direction from writer Denny O’Neil, this is a must-read for fans of Superman’s publishing history.
In this video, I flip through the issue, explore its historical significance, highlight key story beats, and talk about how Superman #233 paved the way for future interpretations of the character—including what it could mean for James Gunn’s upcoming Superman film in 2025. If you're a fan of Silver and Bronze Age comics, Superman lore, or curious about the influences behind the next cinematic Superman, this video is for you!

For today’s video, I’m taking a wild trip back to the ’90s with Marvel Riot, a one-shot parody comic from 1995 that hilariously lampoons the Age of Apocalypse and the over-the-top excesses of ’90s comics. Published under the short-lived “Marvel Absurd” imprint, this comic takes aim at everything from grimdark storytelling to pouches, shoulder pads, and ridiculous mutant names.
In this video, I flip through the issue, spotlight the hilarious art and gags, and talk about how Marvel Riot perfectly skewers the X-Men craze of the decade. If you love Age of Apocalypse, Deadpool, What The—?!, or just enjoy a good comics roast, this one’s for you.
As we gear up for Marvel’s next X-Men adaptation in the MCU and revisit the comics that shaped the franchise, this blast from the past is a fun reminder of how comics never took themselves too seriously.

For today’s video, I’m revisiting The Last Fantastic Four Story, a 2007 one-shot written by Stan Lee with art by John Romita Jr. Billed as Stan’s final send-off to Marvel’s First Family, this cosmic tale puts the Fantastic Four up against a universe-ending threat and tests the limits of Reed Richards’ intellect and humanity. With bold art and a script steeped in classic Marvel emotion, this is a powerful what-if-style finale worthy of the team’s legacy.
As excitement builds for the upcoming MCU Fantastic Four movie (July 2025), including trailers, casting news, and first-look reveals, this comic offers a great lens into how the creators who launched the team envisioned their final moments. If you're hyped about the trailer drop or counting down to Marvel’s Phase 5 slate, this deep dive is for you.
Perfect for longtime Fantastic Four fans, MCU followers, and readers who love Silver Age Marvel, cosmic sagas, and multiverse storytelling. And if you’re new to the FF thanks to the trailer or the MCU buzz, this is a great comic to explore their legacy from a creator’s perspective.

For the 30th anniversary of the Age of Apocalypse, I revisited the entire crossover one week at a time—just like I was picking up the issues off the rack in early 1995. The first wave of books officially hit shelves the first week of January 1995!
The Age of Apocalypse ends here. In this video, I take you through X-MEN: Omega page by page — the dramatic conclusion to one of the most iconic X-Men alternate realities ever published. This final chapter wraps up Marvel’s 1995 Age of Apocalypse crossover event, reshaping the future (and past) of the X-Men universe.
If you're a longtime X-Men reader, comic book collector, or even a fan of the X-Men movies or the upcoming MCU reboot, this deep dive is for you. I flip through the physical comic with a top-down view, pointing out key story beats, character arcs, and the powerful art from penciler, inker, colorist, and letterer.
We’ll also reflect on the entire AoA event — what worked, what didn’t, and why it still matters. From Magneto’s resistance to Apocalypse’s endgame, let’s talk about how this alternate timeline changed the X-Men forever.
