Alright, let's get on with the show then. Waiting down upon the underworld to smash gangland, come to the front of the unfortunate enemy of criminal. In this area, all powerful characters are problems to the police, but a good state of law. Well, already well done, Arthur Agamsel.
Not too many. This is a comic show where we take books in the past week, recap, review them, let you know we thought about them and then give you recommendations for comics that are coming out this week. We think you should check out. We got a lot of stuff to cover.
It's not as much as last week, I think. Last week was like a double-length episode. But, you know, still plenty of books that came out this past week that we want to get into. But before we do that, there's a lot more to cover.
First up, top of the show, sorry for those of you who saw the earlier title of the show. We got a spoiler. Trying to do the clickbait thing. Didn't work out.
Sorry about that. Hope it didn't ruin your day. It is for an imaginary Spider-Man story. We kind of thought we'd get away with it.
Not so much. Yeah, and that's like a first issue of it, right? Yeah, first issue. So it's not like the crux or the point or the whole linchpin of the entire series.
It's more like what happens. But it was like a thing people cared to talk about. You know, when I saw outlets covering it, which is what Marvel wanted, and the first place is why they hired Abrams is, or rather, J.J. Abrams to do it, along with the sun, was really the person who wrote the book.
Abrams himself, senior, that is, put his name on it, so that it would get national attention. But in any case, yeah, so that's one. Two, Timmy's wearing an awesome shirt. It sports the harder patrol logo.
If you're not feeling with harder patrol, you should be watching harder patrols on the main channel. Last playlist on the page. It's a D&D style RPG superhero series. It's three episodes long.
Although I'm telling you the idea of making just one long episode version. So that because the drop off rate was exponential. So it would be nice to kind of like have everybody watch the show all at once. Because I feel like that's when people are going to do that.
But yeah, but if you dug the show, you like the team, harder patrol, available on tpublic.com slash comic pop. No, tpublic.com slash stores slash comic pop, and in the tea spring, which is directly below this video. So either store, you can find this shirt. I would recommend it in the navy blue.
I like how the yellow goes against it. Or white with the navy blue texting. Either way. But those are the two I recommend.
Because yeah, I think you have to choose the colors. Anyway, that's the other things available. The third thing is if you have been living under a rock, then you probably don't know that New York Comic Con is coming up in the next like very short period of time. New York Comic Con is our con.
That's the show that we go to every year. We go all of New York Comic Con Thursday, Sunday. When I say we, I mean Tiffany and me. The rest of the team does not.
Only because they got to work. They got things to do. They got jobs. You have a job too, but you still suck it up for me anyway.
I appreciate it. But yeah, we're going to be doing a meetup. We're actually doing a meetup. But the first of which, the big meetup is at the Valiant booth over on Friday.
So if you have a Friday pass, you couldn't go the weekend, but you can go on Friday. You should go to the Valiant booth. That's booth number 1635 on Friday from 1 PM to 2 PM. So you got an hour window of time where you can bump into us, come to the Valiant booth 1635.
It's on the main floor. It's near one of the, it's nothing near one of the car booths. It's a pretty prominent booth. You're going to see all four of the members of Comic Pop, plus a few extra people maybe.
And Benny, the comic store ain't going to be there. That's right. It's like a two for. It's like a two for.
Yeah. It's a two for. It's like we're doing time. We're only selling all kinds of fun stuff.
We got some posters. We may have stickers. I don't know. I'm working on it.
I was like, this is the tease for the live show. This is like the, you better have them. No, I said maybe. I did not promise stickers, though I do have some stickers that are already available.
I make better stickers. Well, in any case, those are good stickers. And people in the Patreon get those stickers. So you know, patreon.com slash.
But anyway, if you've ever wanted to meet the entire team to a selfie, obviously you wouldn't get a autograph because autographs are useless. We'll do it when you let it go. But no, if you do want to autograph, of course, we're happy. Those are free.
The ideas we do with the posters. The posters are fun. And we have multiple varieties now. Live action versions, lots of stuff.
If you ever wanted some kind of memorabilia, come on down. The Valiant booth on Friday. I believe that's the fourth of October 1635 from 1 to 2 PM. There will also be another meet and greet over at the DC Wing on Saturday because the Saturday is the crazy day.
But we'll work on that. The informal no posters can be available then. Because we want to have a table. And finally, the biggest thing I want to talk about besides meeting us is that we have something for you in the chat right now.
The kind of the guarantee, the fun part of the show for you watching it live is that you can win at the end of this show a carbon fiber. The carbon fiber. Of bloodshot number one. I think it's the cover.
It is carbon fiber. The cover is carbon fiber. But like both sides. I know.
Like this is like a perfect binding style. Of the first issue of bloodshot number one. I didn't take it out. We're not.
I wouldn't, I wouldn't, I wouldn't, I wouldn't, I wouldn't deen to ruin the value. We wouldn't even breathe in the bag. Nope. Nope.
Nope. But from Tim Seeley and Brett booth, you can check out this issue. It comes out on Wednesday. That's like this Wednesday.
You can pick up this book, but not this specific book. Because this one is a carbon fiber copy. It's not the shiny. It's the, it's the, it's the plastic.
Yeah, it's nice. I'm trying to see the texture in the background. Right. That's all over it.
In any case, throughout the show, use the hashtag bloodshot. That's right, use the hashtag bloodshot. And our intrepid moderator, Danielle, will select at random someone who could win this. By the way, if you want this and you participate in the hashtag bloodshot competition.
You got to be able to contact me and give me your address. Those are the rules. The rules are I need to be able to mail it to you. Please for the love of God, don't win and then disappear or not give me your address.
The way to get my address or me for me to get your address. Quick, my address. It's got a couple of drinks. Yeah, it's got a couple of slices of pizza in me and we'll talk.
But if you want, email me, sal.com.net and I will work out the deets with you in the future. So yeah. It's really cool looking. By the way, no, I cannot block a bullet.
Do not use this. No, no, no, no. I don't expect you to believe that. It's more like just don't assume most things can't block bullets and you'll probably be a little safer.
It's really cool looking. I know. I do wonder if it's a wrap around. I wanted it.
I have to give it to you, but I want it. Oh, no, okay. That's cool. That makes it better.
No, you don't actually read it up and it's fine. Right, exactly. Yeah. And just participate.
As far as in the continental United States. Try to think of my costs as well. But the reality is, I mailed a special signature to Super Luigi Act and I mailed a few Patreon things this week. So I've already spent like $80 or $90 on mail today.
I'm happy to spend. So obviously I'm comfortable to do that. It's going anywhere. Exactly.
No, it's going anywhere. Don't worry about the US. Just me. Go for it.
This is a variant cover too. The Brooklyn Shout-Ove has the main cover. Exclusivity. Look at them pecks.
Bloodshot. Come on Wednesday. We'll talk about it a little bit later. But yeah.
Hashtag bloodshot. Try to win it. Hashtag will not block a bullet. Good call.
So yeah, we'll remind you throughout the show, by the way, as we go. But yeah. Finally, as we get into the comics, we want to mention that this show is sponsored by viewers like you. You are the sponsor for this show.
How? Well, you didn't sign any contract. What's the deal here? The deal is by using the super chats, you're lining our pockets with your money so that we can keep these.
You're lining up your pockets with your support. With your support. So, by keeping the lights on, allowing us to have a dedicated internet connection. You know, the internet ain't free.
But no, honestly, the show is the show. But if you want to help support the show, here on the live show, you can use the super chats to ask a question, make a comment, and we will of course read it interwoven throughout this episode. Like these find people here, like Zebra. I just love you guys.
I just wanted to say R.I.P. Sid Hague. Yes, rest in peace, the passing of legendary screen actors. Sid Hague is no longer with us.
I wasn't a really big horror fan, but I understand that I've seen a number of his films. I miss this occurring. Oh, well, it happened. It's very sad.
Yes. No, I agree. Yes. Super LuigiX says, won't be seeing you live.
Use this for the snacks. We'll do, my friend. Thank you so much. Jake Stanley never get to catch this live, but I got off work early today, so yay.
Nice. I'm glad you were able to sneak away. Maybe they were just not, maybe it wasn't like a covert obstacle. It was just like, I take the day.
Right, why not? Just that Curiosity is Letter's Page Not Having anymore. Anyway, thanks for being awesome. Letter's Page is another show from this channel where we open up packages that you send us.
We also read letters and whatnot. The show hasn't been on for about three months now. And that's only because we just haven't had a chance to really like get our bearings. I have a bunch of stuff from you amazing people that are just kind of sitting.
It's just taking a while because everybody's got things going on. And we got hit by like a major, not a major problem, but more like we found out some information regarding the algorithm and whatnot. And it took up like three weeks of my time. Yeah, those like, yeah.
So entire plans were constructed and then deconstructed. Yeah, we were really rolling out with like, I guess for these five shows, these five new shows, one like 12 shows, like basically every other week. And then YouTube was like, I think we should really make more like two or three shows. And we're going to hurt you if you make more shows.
Right, so we'll apologize for that. Yeah, but Letter's Page is not dead and we'll be bringing it back soon. Yeah, give us past Comic Con. Yeah, not before Comic Con.
But afterwards, that's the plan. Yeah, no, yeah. The last episode I think was a Christmas thing to it. So as of she had helped us out, thank you very much.
LG try Hell's Yeah, it's Comic Pop. Take my overtime money to keep that running off. Wait, does that place have a restroom? It does.
We're actually in like a complex. So like there's, it's a public restroom for everyone in the. It's like everybody a restroom. Yeah, it's fantastic.
Sometimes when you go into that restroom, there are men in there who are weeping openly and they're like apologizing to unseen ghosts. We don't know what's going on in there, but I do know it's terrifying. We're still letting an area of the studio to an old friend of mine. And he's the one who he's here earlier than me because he's a kid.
So he's here when like regular people come here for work. By the way, like no one's in this office. It's like us, them, and like the ghosts that he hears. And he heard this like insanity coming out of the bathroom.
He said he also heard some like, you know, I think he's here in celebration. Forget he's like, you know, sleep deprived. That's true. He is dealing with the new born.
So anyway, yeah, ghosts. Thank you for your overtime. We really appreciate it. It does feel good.
Oh, yeah, Mr. Supertastic says I was just visiting Twitter when I'm looking forward to for absolute comics. But then could you tell us the difference between else worlds without the else world you do with Joel? If you're not familiar, this Tuesday, tomorrow around I think 5 p.m.
Eastern Standard Time will be the launch of a new show over on twitch.tv.com. Where Benny and I will be kind of like continuing on the legacy of the weekly poll with a new series called absolute comics. We're going to be talking about news and the goings on. It's not going to be so much like else worlds where we take one topic and we hash that for about an hour.
Also, it's sometimes an interview show. Absolute comics can be more like the kind of like the kind of variety podcast you come to expect from like an entertainment spectrum. Like, oh, it's like we're going to talk about like this for about 15 minutes. And then like the close thing I can approximate it to is an old show.
It was another podcast. I can't know what that was called now. It was from major spoilers. Oh.
And it was a solid show. I think it's comic talk or something like that. I can't remember. Comic Dorks.
It was called comic doors. Okay. So if you ever catch an old episode of comic door, it's like that. We're talking about this and then we're going to move on and talk about this.
And then this is the main topic we're going to talk about here. And then we're going to like plug a couple things here. Like it's going to be very structured and tight and fun. And you're going to be seeing some familiar faces and some unfamiliar faces over on that show.
She's going to be on it as well. I am. Yeah. Not all the time, but you'll be popping in.
Oh, yeah. Obviously. Also, if you want to catch it live, you can only watch it live through my patreon. Or his patreon.
Yeah. Coming through. He says, Hey, you all when he doing more comic pop draws and didn't you all do next wave or back is just we did not do next wave. We did not.
The comic pop draws is one of the shows that I got kind of we didn't know what to do with it post post the algorithm problem. Plus like the fact is like that's a show that should have blown up. Harbor Patrol is not a show that should have blown up like and it just didn't we don't blow up. We straight up flat die.
We just don't. We love doing it. We love it. We have you and it's great.
We love it. And again. Anyway, I can't find it. I can't find it.
You'll give thoughts on Swamp Thing because I love to hear about it. The character or the show? The book. Oh, like we've never done swamp thing.
We've never done next wave. You won't find an episode. We haven't done it. Maybe one day we'll do it but I doubt it.
Although if an upcoming episode of back is just any indication we'll do anything and we'll do Swamp Thing at some point in future. The show we watched it. She and I. Yeah.
Nine out of ten episodes are excellent. Yeah. Yeah. The last one's the worst.
Damn it. I mean like that's not fault because they went from 13 to 10. Yeah, no. They got screwed.
tend to never being over forever. Yeah, I really say. No. Gavijas and Three Cokes here for the win.
Hashtag Bloodshot. Cheers. John Williams, I love the show's got to support. Thank you very much and I love your music.
Yes. Especially Empire. Asteroid feel. Great to show you a bit of cash.
You go towards buying something that can in fact block a bullet. Since apparently Bloodshot won't do. No, it will not. But yeah, yeah, we got to get some flackdackets.
I'm not even sure that Bloodshot himself would help us out. No. He'd be a lot of bullets. No, he would.
Yeah. Tardis man 85, you two interested in doing Star Wars Infinite's on back issues. Yes, I would love or Infinities. I would love to do Star Wars Infinities.
That'll probably be the next Star Wars book we do. One of the three. It was three of them. It wasn't the comic spine.
I was through my phone on the floor. Put it here. That was fine. Yeah, Star Wars Infinities.
We're not familiar. Check out Mr. Sunday Movies video on them. Oh, that's right.
Oh, OK. That's the other thing is that he and Mason are so funny and they did such a great job. It made me go like I guess I'll never do Infinities. Well, you don't know what to do.
What's Jim Ethan will come out with? That's true. And you don't get Ethan's Emperor. Even if the Emperor's not a part of it, I guess we'll talk about Justice League from Scott Snyder.
This has been the book that you've been like. It's fine. Sometimes it's good. Yes, that's right.
How was this one? Pretty good. OK. It's all pretty good.
Until it's not. Yep. Just like 32, Snyder and Tynyon. This whole perpetual thing, it needs to stop.
I'm amazed that it's tight with your villain, but this is clearly the culmination of his Doom War thing, his War of Doom. And for it being so important and huge, it doesn't feel like it's important in DC. It feels like this is the only book that's talking about it. Right.
I think just like Dark referenced it, but only because the same guy who's writing that is also working on this. I don't see it in Flash or Green Lantern. Do you mean you're a villain? No, I mean this.
Oh. Like the War of Doom. Right, right, right. Well, yeah, because Justice League Dark references that Luther reaches out to Cersei.
Yes. And she makes her own team, but that's it. That's kind of it. Exactly.
But it's really weird that it's this important. I think you're supposed to get any impression that this is really important and really massive. Especially since after the John's thing went away, the Justice Society is now debuted in this series. Right.
Who was that? Who's who? That right there. That's Dr.
Fate. Dr. Fate was a member of the JSA. Oh, it's a different one.
This is the JSA, Dr. Fate. Oh, OK. That raises enormous questions.
No, it's just that's. Where are they? They're in the past. Thank you.
They're actually for harbor. The idea is so the story is that like previously, you know, just like went into time. There's two teams, one's in the past, one's in the future. Flash and Green Lantern go to the past.
They meet the JSA who nobody knows about because, you know, forget Doom's day clock. And it turns out that Brainiac and the Legion of Doom practically were their first. They're all trying to get pieces of totality to put together a rod or staff or whatever that's starting to can wield to fix time or reality or whatever. And so you know, you're getting a lot of fun interplay between like J.
Gary and Barry Allen, who are like, I think I should know you, but I don't. And it's like, yeah, yeah, no. Didn't like they referenced this in Williamson's Flashbook. So basically, the Legion of Doom is attacking the Justice League and keeping them from getting to the totality.
So you get this like fun big action sequences between the team of Legion of Doom's there and the team Legion of Doom's in the future. You know, in the future, of course, because Snyder's a huge great Morrison fan, they go to the future of DC 1 million. So they face the Justice League 1 million. And Brainiac, of course, is taking control of like these like legions of hordes and whatnot.
So the Justice League and the Justice League and Kamundi, the Last Boy on Earth, like fight them. And basically, it's just a fun fight. Ultimately, of course, the leagues get their totality pieces that they need. In the last story or last issue, it was revealed that Aquaman had joined up with the anti-monitorer who both teams need on their side so they can win.
So like, Capetra was like, we need anti-monitorer in his reality-shading powers to help destroy everything or remake everything, whatever her plan is. The plan is, she's evil, so that's her plan. So, you know, the Justice League's gonna fight in Evil Brainiac over in the future. And the good, in the past Justice League, is joined by Aquaman, who has been sent to help them from the anti-monitorer, Luther and Perpetua, make it to the former location of the Source Wall, where they're like, okay, time to convince the anti-monitorer to join our team.
And the anti-monitorer is like, nah, bitch, I'm not on your team. I'm on my own team. No, he's on the good team. No, it would make sense.
He's like, no, I'm an ancient chaos, I'm gonna do my own thing. No, he's like, no, I'm just on the good guys team. I'm gonna fight you. Yeah, well, one should, because it is fun.
It's kinda like, whatever. You know, I think when it all, like, unlike Hawks and Pocks, where it's like, when it reads and trade, holy crap, or like, dude, it's like, when it reads and trades, like, oh my God, with this, it's like, this is gonna be a way more fun read and trade. It's not gonna like blow your mind, or break new ground, or impress you with its depth, but it certainly will be, I think, more fun to read because you'll be like, I'm reading all at once, and it's like, there's a lot happening in every page, and every issue. So, wow, they really jammed a lot of story into these, like, many issues.
It's not gonna be fun. It'll be like reading Grant Morrison's Justice League, because Grant Morrison's Justice League was the same deal. Got a lot of stuff in a short amount of time. I noticed that the art wasn't as strong.
It depends on what you're thinking. There's no multiple artists. How reported does some of the work gonna be? Okay, because there were certainly some panels where I was like, oh, that looks rush.
No, it is, and I think it is, because like, these books coming out on time, if not ahead of schedule. Okay. But yeah, and also, I think like certain artists are more. But not all of it, like, there's just like, some of it where it's like totally fine, and it's all of it, I'm like, ouch, like, why?
Yeah, yeah, and I think it really is just like, the time crunch. Okay. Well, that's why multiple artists are doing like the same issue. Sure.
Sure. Yeah, plus, yeah, that's it. Just to leave. That's it.
I guess I recommend it. I mean, I think it would be difficult to jump in now. Yeah, but like, there's not much you need to like, no, besides like, perpetuate the bad guy. Right.
But just so you can win. That's all, you know, like, it's not really that deep. But that doesn't need to be, you know? Right, it's a summer blockbuster.
In the fall. Well, it's just today. Right, yeah, so, you know, check it out. Sure.
What do you got? Let's hang out in the DC Universe for a second, and chat about inferior vibe by Keith Giffon and Orr's by Jeff Lemire, which is why the art is fine sometimes and weak other times. Right, because he's not really honest. No, I mean, Jeff Lemire, like, it just sees a very specific style and like, it really works for like backgrounds and like, certain facial expressions, but not everything.
And he's like, child and enemies a little bizarre. Every compagardist usually has some kind of problem with child. Yes, they just draw tiny adults. Right.
By the way, am I seeing the invasion logo? Okay, so hang on. So, um, inferior vibe is a book back in the day. It was a parody team.
Oh, from Keith Giffon, you say? Yeah, with like, dumb bunny and like, at least like, random people. What's shark? It's not a parody right now.
This book is like, straight up, like, something messed up is happening. It's like, children of the corn, but not at all. But I mean, like, that sort of like, vibes. Like, here's some creepy-ass shit.
What's going on? Right, okay. So, we start off in the town of Dangerfield, Arizona, where we see like, some girl desperately trying to make her way through the desert. She's wearing like a hospital gown.
And like, some child with a sack on his face, like, tied around his neck and an X on it, like, finds her, and then like, explodes her without touching her. Oh, no, he looks kind of like a dominator shape. Right? That's because the dominator is wearing this.
But he's tiny, and he only talks in the, like, three little kittens rhyme. And so, like, that means something to somebody, and they can, like, figure that out. And the dominators can, in fact, do that. But like, it's really creepy.
If you think about it, like, you're running from that thing. Yeah, I would not want to run from that. This girl just wants to do his leave. She's like, I just want to go.
I just don't want to be here anymore. And he just keeps saying three little kittens thing at her, and then he blows her up. And I'm like, cool. So then we cut to this dude, this kid, who's like remembering his dad, because his dad was like super cool, and like, really nice guy, and was always just like, anytime the kid would complain or something bad would be happening.
He would be like, things will be worse. Like, not like things will be worse trying to make you feel bad, but it'll be like, you know, things will be worse. Like, oh, I have to rush on to close to me. They're like, well, things will be worse.
It might just go tomorrow if it is. Like, don't worry about it. Like that kind of thing. If they are worse, they can be better.
Exactly. But then the invasion happened. Mm-hmm. What invasion?
The invasion. Okay. Invasion, invasion. From the 80s?
Yeah. That's part of the creepiness of this book. Yeah, what? Because you'll notice the calendar there says 1988.
Oh, that's cool. Why is he doing this? Hang on. So, um, so he's like, his dad died in the invasion and his mom was like, I can't handle being in New York anymore or not in New York.
Metropolis, I think they were. Okay. And so they leave and they move to this like, rundown ghost town basically. People live here, but it is messed up, right?
And he's just like, I don't understand. Like, I never want to forget dad, but like, that's all she seems to want to do. Right, right. So they go there and she's like, oh, like, he's complaining and we'll see about it.
She gives him some money. He goes to like, go to town. Like, do whatever. Right.
And then we cut to like the, like, the dominators and they're like collecting intel about how Superman's dead. And Captain Adams has been like contained and the fan of Garyans have been like wiped out. And like, is this like a one-if book? So like, I have some theories, but it's really difficult to tell because then we see a panel of this other girl in a comic book store and she's reading a comic book called Invasion.
And that's of the first, the second page of this book. Yeah. Right. And she's like talking about like, like, who's writing this crap?
Yeah. It's 37, huh? And, um, there's a, there's a comic book store owner there and we don't see his face by the name of the comic store. It's quantum comics.
Okay. And, um, he like turns away and he's just like, this is a blood poor hand of his face. We can't really see his face. And he's just like, you okay?
And he's like, don't ask me about it. Okay. And she's like, cool. All right.
Whatever. Like, you're like, we know over the comics anyway. So she leaves. Okay.
And, um, we get like this like, oh yeah, no, that's not gonna work for me. The child. Yeah. It's like a little, it's the top part is an adult or a teenager and the bottom part is a peanut character.
Yes. Um, that's straight up is. So, um, then we check in with our like main character who I literally can't remember if he's named. I think he is Justin.
Um, Justin said into town and like while he said it to town, we get like this like radio conversation that's going on. We're talking about like subject 5.6. We found him. He said it's towards the record store.
Like subject like three and four are there. So like, let's see what happens. Okay. And it's like, what is happening here?
We're into subject three and four. I think it's three and four, um, who are in the record store and, um, oh, two and four. This looks just like Keith Giffens work. This straight up looks like the Trencher or Heckler or lunatic.
Right. Except like there's no like zanyness happening. No, it's just misery. Um, so they're these two kids.
They're clearly like from the eighties and looking at like vinyl and like those girls there and she's looking at and she's like, stop following your right. And she's like, no, I love going to the record store. Yeah. She's like, I've never seen you here.
You're just, no, like they know each other. She's like, you're just like creeping on me. Right. Um, so they end up leaving the, the, the vinyl store and, um, like, ah, she needs a punch in the face or something like that.
So they end up running into the new kid basically. And, um, like, all right. Cool. We know these characters.
Then there is this chick who like turns into a bird and flies away. Oh, by the way, he calls her dumb bunny. Okay. And I'm like, oh, are these like, like, right?
He's like clones, right? Something. Like Justin walks by a guy who's smoking a cigarette and like the, um, burrito confrontation mentions. It's like, oh no, it's just like Larry.
It's just smoking Larry. Like, it's still like, he's a plant there. Right. Okay.
Right. So the chick who turned into a bird, we meet with her later on and like, she acts like she's just like, I'm just a normal human girl, blah, blah, blah, and the girl's in the comic store is like, okay, you're really weird. And I, like, so she's like, I know you're not a human. Fine, whatever.
And then she's all this like, crazy ass, like, like, piece of paper and like evidence that she's found about like something going on, right? And she starts like saying the fact that like Billy's back and we established earlier that kid in the burlap sack, the dominator's like, referred him as Billy. Okay. That's Billy.
All right. Billy's there for a reason. And basically the idea is that like, we learn from like her findings that like houses are marked with X's and also like, people come to this town, but it's only single mothers and their kids. It's never the dads and why is that?
Right. It's up with that. It doesn't matter if you take his Billy's back, so that's messed up. Okay.
So Billy's called into action and then we see Billy like wandering along. He looks kind of like trick or treat the little guy. Oh my God, it's not movie. Yeah.
And he's like dragging like a body sized bag. And what is clearly a dominator in a like hazmat suit is like, did you get her Billy? Right. And he points to Justin's mom on like a piece of paper and like he's like, but she's alive, right Billy?
We told her to get her like told you to get her alive. Yeah. And then like he just starts saying like part of the three like three little kittens and he looks at the bag and the patches oozing blood everywhere. He's like, Oh, cut to Justin.
He ends up home and his house is marked with like, it's like red X is every like part of it. House is covered in a red X. Yeah. And then we like see, you know, Justin coming to terms with probably what has happened and the fact that like the girl like girl who's in the comic book store is like, wait, there's a new kid you didn't tell me about it.
And I was really looking up at like this doll that's hanging from the tree. And it kind of reminds me of like of Justin's mom sort of not really. Right. Okay.
But that like Justin is special. His mom was special to some degree. But clearly he's 5.6. The girl was so at the beginning was 5.5.
Okay. And so like parody or like being fear of five was made up of five people. Right. So we don't know if this is like actually taking place in the 80s or this is taking place like now and they're in like a place.
Right. Or like that all these characters died at some point and then they brought them back as children or like whatever. I don't know. So I'm like intrigued.
Yeah. I think it is definitely a element of like tension and creepiness part of that is created. I think by gifting and the way you don't story part of is definitely in the way that Lumiere depicts a lot of things. I'm not going to say like go out and run and grab it.
If you thought it's an interesting go and do so. I just don't know what the next issue is going to hold on. Right. Or if it's going to like go in a given way where it turns out to be more of a parody which is what he's known for and I don't know if he's doing this on purpose to be like no.
You thought I was going to write is like writing a parody of the parody in a weird way. Yeah. Weird. That's one of the mentioned it's like okay.
Cool. It's also backup by like Jeff. Nice. Hashtag Bloodshot, you get this for free.
Just a lesson. Carbon fiber, right there. Here's your nails. Here we go.
I don't have any. I don't have any. Jumping in the superchasperly quick. Let's see where we were.
I think did Wolverine. Silver cricket says did Wolverine and Cap have a team up book? Were they investigating weapon plus programs, or was that a fever dream that ever happened? Yeah, no, that was a book.
I think they even, yeah, no, that happened. You were not having a fever dream. Yeah, that happened. There's not been a number of Wolverine Cap crossover stories, and I think they might have addressed it in the Marvel book that came out recently.
But I dropped that book because it was getting really bad. CB3, are you guys going to get a Disney Plus? Yes. Really, we can get a free order.
Yeah, and a good a seven day free trial. I tried to do the pre-order, but the site crashed. Disney's like, uh huh. Mr.
Roboto Soundtiff, the Reaper, has a comeback potential. He's already come back, actually. The Reaper, where it's brought back like a little while ago. And it's a detective comic story.
So good old Reaper. If you're not familiar with why Tiffany's upset, check out Bad Issues on Year Two. Ruben Gonzalez helping us out. Thank you very much.
Ruben, thank you. Jake Stanley. Oh my god, please do next wave. Maybe.
Mr. Supertastic, I was surprised to see Super Empire on Back Issues since I remember how tired you felt reviewing it. I like how Ben only remembered the vomiting conveniences. Yeah.
Yeah. He remembers very weird details. I was like, what? Yeah.
And it was essential. I didn't remember that at all. No. No.
I perfect it up. I was like, when I saw it happening, I'm like, oh, right. Oh, right. Andre.
The sex vomited. Andrew DeDeRue says, thoughts on mutants being proud people or a cult. Right. There was a big discussion about this actually on Reddit the other day, where it was like, Professor Kultmeter.
And everyone's like, and people were like, no. Well, we won't. No, they're not. We won't know anything until the end of this book.
But how does it feel right now? And we'll get into that when we talk about Hawks 5. My problems, we'll talk about that. Adam Groves helping us out.
Robert Corr thoughts on Apple buying Sony possibilities. Tears hoping. Do it. I'm starting to put that together.
I'll talk about that on absolute comics. But the sort of it is, that's why Disney hasn't just used their financial muscle. They're like, why would I give you money or make concessions with you if you're not going to be a company, confeduary? You know?
But that's not we don't know. Apple and Amazon. It could be either one. My hope is Amazon.
