I’m very excited to do this for a bunch of reasons, not the least of which because Owen is the gold standard of Comics Commentary and History on YouTube but also because I get to talk about what I think is the best comic cover of at least a decade issue 22 by @alexrossart.bsky.social #comicsky

The cover of Fantastic Four 22 Reed is being bit by Vamps but they can’t break his skin.

Absolute Wonder Woman is excellent and one of the books we most look forward to each month. Allison was lucky to sit down with @kellythompson.bsky.social to discuss its first year of publication, the process of creating the pitch, and what we might expect going forward. It’s a fun one! #comicsky

Tomorrow, we’re sitting down with @owenlikescomics.bsky.social to discuss @ryannorth.ca ‘s first vol of Fantastic Four. At the end of issue 1 Ryan gives us his four guiding lights of the book (below). This narrative and artistic ethos is one reason why this book is a damn modern classic. #comicsky

Text that reads:

1. The Fantastic Four are fun.
These are people who know they can help people and are here to do exactly that. No angst, having super-powers rules!
2. The Fantastic Four are adventurers.
Exploring the unexplored is fun and gratifying. The unknown and the impossible are crazy interesting!
3. The Fantastic Four can do anything.
If we want to recapture the feeling of the FF as they were in the '60s where anything could happen, we have to let what's come before be there to inspire stories but not limit them.
4. The Fantastic Four are accessible.
This is a comic for people who've read every Fantastic Four appearance since 1961, but it's also one that welcomes people who have never read a single Fantastic Four comic betore or even a single Marvel comic. While we have deep-cut references to what's come before, you won't feel left out if you don't know it, because this is a comic for everyone.

I just want to take a second to compliment my partner @allisonparent.bsky.social , who in 15 months went from never having read a comic to interviewing @kellythompson.bsky.social on their own. Also Absolute Wonder Woman is so fucking good you guys. If you’re not reading it, change that! #comicsky

Oops I forgot how annoying comics fans on Twitter are during NYCC. I should probably just delete that app.

M’Krann and Immortus loved telling this story together, whether it is remembered (it will be) or not.

Our themes for the next few months. (We made our decision for our January Marathon we’re reading Generation X)

In November we’re talking Mutant extended family, like Namor, Big Bertha and the GLA, Ms. Marvel, and Gwenpool

In December it’s the naughty and nice list. Some of the best books of the year and some Patreon requests along with, not bad books but characters behaving badly

In January we’re reading all of Generation X vol 1 AND vol 2

Got to read an early copy of Ten Ton Titan Terrier by @peposed.bsky.social and @ornitoplatypus.bsky.social it’s so fun, so full of joy. The art gives you a fresh take on Saturday morning cartoons. I teach middle school students who would love this, but it’s def for all ages. Out TODAY! #comicsky

The cover of Ten-Ton Titan Terrier out TODAY at your Local Comic Shop!
