The Mankitten Project (Doomsday Clock #7-8)
Summer Day Doomsday continues as we take a look at issues 7 and 8 of Doomsday Clock, as Watchmen continues to collide in a big way with the DC Universe... a big, glowing, blue way. As Adrian Veidt finally makes contact with Dr. Manhattan, truths are revealed and philosophies are pontificated upon, with some BIG revelations that change everything for Rorschach, Adrian, and Marionette! Meanwhile, Firestorm seeks to clear his good name... by invading Russia. Good plan! How can Superman help to salvage this international incident? What is the chemical formula for transmuting glass into human flesh? And Dr. Manhattan did WHAT to Alan Scott??

Downtown Clown Pound (Doomsday Clock #5-6)
Summer Day Doomsday continues as we take a look at issues #5-6 of DOOMSDAY CLOCK, the crossover between Watchmen and the DC Universe! We've officially made it to the halfway point, and things are looking GREAT! After Adrian Veidt escapes from his hospital and tosses Batman into an angry mob, the Caped Crusader finds himself at the tender mercies of Mime, Marionette, and his archfoe, THE JOKER! And he's not the only one fighting for his life, as Johnny Thunder finds himself pursued in his search for a mysterious green lantern... no, not the space one, the other one. Plus, Mime and Marionette take a little trip down memory lane as we find what brought our criminal twosome together! Why exactly are they so crazy devoted to one another? What is the job of an editor in chief anyway? And what kind of insurance do supervillain minions have? Give it a listen, and if you've gotta go... go with a smile.

The Rorschach Redemption (Doomsday Clock #3-4)
Summer's Day Doomsday continues as TIGG takes a look at issues #3-4 of the DC Comics and Watchmen crossover, Doomsday Clock! When a blast from the past quite literally makes a splash in Metropolis, Ozymandias gets punched in the face by karma in the form of the Comedian. Meanwhile, the world's worst detective enlists the help of the greatest as Rorschach informs Batman of his situation... and is promptly locked up in Arkham for his trouble. Let's hope this doesn't induce an issue-long flashback of his traumatic backstory! Will Rorschach be able to escape Arkham Asylum? Why are so many circus folk punching each other? And what martial arts style is known by the Mothman? See what you want to see, comic fans...

Squids Ruin Breakfast (Doomsday Clock #1-2)
It's June 8, 2026. This Is Getting Graphic's summer event begins with a look at the first two issues of Doomsday Clock, the official crossover between Alan Moore's Watchmen and the DC Universe. Nuclear war is back in a big way in the Watchmen universe, and Ozymandias's squid plan didn't work. Shocker. He and a new Rorschach recruit the criminals Mime and Marionette to attempt to find the all-powerful Dr. Manhattan, which is the only way to save their world. Good luck, kiddos. Oh, and also Superman has a bad dream. Will our protagonists track down Dr. Manhattan and save their world? How does Bruce Wayne keep passing corporate mandated psych exams? And do you think Rorschach likes pancakes? I am tired of this world, these people. I am tired of being caught up in the tangle of their lives. This podcast might help. Listen and find out.

The Princess Pryde (Uncanny X-Men #153)
Hello, children. Please join us for a magical tale of wonder and adventure, as we hop back into the Claremont X-Men run with "Kitty's Fairy Tale". Little Illyana is so tired after having many thoughts of her impending doom, so to calm her mind and send her off to sleep, Kitty Pryde spins her a lovely bedtime story... off the top of her head, and based on people in real life. So why does she make some of them so goofy? I guess creative license wins out every time! Will Kitty's story succeed in calming Illyana to sleep? Why does that dragon look so much like a jet made by Lockheed Martin? And is that REALLY how Kitty sees Nightcrawler?? It's a tale that's sure to delight the young and young at heart, with only a minimal amount of cringe, we swear.

Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Stupidity (World's Finest Comics #153)
The Silver Age madness continues on This Is Getting Graphic as we take a look at an imaginary story (yeah, we know) featuring an alternate universe wherein Batman is the greatest nemesis of Superman! After Dr. Thomas Wayne dies under mysterious circumstances that his young son Bruce assumes are related to Superman, he vows revenge and to spend the rest of his life bringing the Man of Steel to justice! Unfortunately, this Bruce is a far cry from the world's greatest detective, choosing instead to just sort of become Batman on a whim while Superman goes about his business as normal. But hey! No supervillains in Gotham City! That's a plus! Will this vengeful version of the Dark Knight achieve his goal of taking down Superman? Does Superman always investigate the crimes of Lex Luthor from 12 feet above his head? And is that Robin creating an Internet meme?? It's dumbass vs. dumbass, so don't miss the retributive hilarity!

When Doom sets a trap for the Fantastic Four inside their own headquarters, the quartet has no choice but to follow his demands to save their lives! And what does he want?

Cruisin' for a Blunt Bruisin' (All You Need Is Kill Chapters 1-2)
Hey, everyone! It's This Is Getting Graphic's 100th episode! But... it's also our episode closest to April Fool's Day... which means... OH NO, WE'RE ABOUT TO BE-- Ignore them. It is I, Alex Hanbury, back with another great story, this time the first two chapters of the manga All You Need Is Kill. When a soldier known as Keiji Kiriya wakes up from a mysterious dream where he suffers a violent death, he finds himself experiencing déjà vu all day. Then after experiencing ANOTHER violent death, he wakes up again on the same day. You could say he's living, dying, and maybe repeating? Nah, a little too on the nose. How can Keiji ever get out of this strange development? Is a battlefield really the most appropriate place to ask about Japanese cuisine options? And what's Keiji's roommate's name again? Plus, a special new segment to commemorate our first 100 episodes, "Is It Insanity, Is It Gold, or Is It Silver?" Join us and listen to this episode again... and again... and again...

In this (unsurprisingly) free comic given out in schools, the Teen Titans find themselves confronting the evils of drug addiction alongside their longtime best friend and ally... the Protector? What do you mean you don't know the Protector? He's that purple guy who hates drugs and always hangs out with them! But when tragedy strikes a teenage member of their community, the crusade against drugs begins! How many people must the Titans kill to get drugs off the street?

The Holy Gospel of Milton and Bradley (Marvel vs. DC #3-4)
It's ROUND TWO here on This Is Getting Graphic as the knockdown, drag out brawl between universes continues in the final two issues of Marvel vs. DC! Or sometimes DC vs. Marvel! As the all powerful cardboard box begins to crumble, winners are chosen as the fates of two universes hang in the balance, with some victories coming as more of a surprise than others. Hmm... if only there were someone with ACCESS to both universes... that guy sure would be very useful right about now. How can the comics divisions of two corporate overlords survive this onslaught? Will Axel Asher actually get to do something? And what is the dictionary definition of the word "amalgam"? All these questions and more will be answered, and spoiler alert... hope you guys like Slayer!

Yeah, uh, Star Trek: The Next Generation had a Christmas comic. Who knew? As Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-D have apparently returned from the gym based on how RIPPED they all are, they prepare to celebrate the holidays... yes, ALL THE PLANETS' HOLIDAYS. But their multitude of festivities is interrupted when they are hailed by a group of... ninjas? Ninjas looking for some kind of sentient fireball?

After Namor throws an Arctic hissy fit, in which he throws a frozen man at a group of Inuit, said frozen man turns out to be Captain America, released from his icy prison after however many decades the sliding timescale allows.

We're back with the second half of House of M, and at long last, things are happening! Are they good things? Ehhhhh... who's to say? With the help of Layla Miller and Emma Frost, the heroes of the Marvel Universe are pulled from their ideal worlds and pulled back into the trauma of being a superhero. Thanks, I hate it!

At least Aunt May's Twitch career has finally taken off! Can the heroes succeed in putting the world back the way it should be? How long does it take Peter Parker to have a full-on nervous breakdown?

And then talks some more. Have we mentioned there's a lot of talking? Who is the mysterious Layla Miller who remembers everything? Is Clint Barton cosplaying Green Arrow?

Justice, like lightning, strikes when least expected... but we like to be topical, so here's the Thunderbolts!

Peter Parker's Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Day (Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man)
Face front, comics fans, and come on a journey with us into the very first crossover between DC and Marvel, SUPERMAN VS. THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Huh... seems to be a bit of a power disparity right out the gate... place your bets now! When Lex Luthor and Dr. Octopus find they have more in common then they thought, they team up to launch an incredibly convoluted scheme, rather than becoming the hot new celebrity couple. Can the combined might of Superman and Spider-Man stop their villainous rampage, or will the two kill each other first? Why is Superman so condescending to those tribesmen? And... is that a flying octopus? Join us for a look at an epic adventure, as well as learning more about J.
