Don Callis drawing that scar on every morning like Lex Luthor drawing his arched eyebrow in All-Star Superman #5. (This post is for @mattdwilson.net only)

"Timeless" Toni Storm is the greatest professional wrestler alive today.

The James Bond thing has to be a bit, right? They cannot possibly be that stupid. Like... they already did it with Felix Leiter after he was killed on his honeymoon by a young Benicio Del Toro.

You should do this too

It's HickMania III on this week's show as we read Fantastic Four #575-578, introducing four new and mysterious cities!

I imported Pokémon I caught way back in X and Y from the 3DS Pokémon Bank to Pokémon Home yesterday, and they're from a playthrough where I gave them all names. So now I have a 12 year-old Hawlucha named "El Dandy Jr."

Do you think my friends who do a Child's Play podcast would be mad if I started calling all haunted dolls "Chuckies" like how we call all vampires Draculas? Like "Annabelle's one of those Chuckies you like, right?" "Oh, like that episode of the Simpsons where Krusty's a Chucky?"

We're very happy to welcome @ericafails.bsky.social back to the show this week to talk Harley and Ivy: Life and Crimes!

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back! Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary. Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest! #MundaneHalloween

Here's a thread of the Apocrypals Halloween episodes -- there's some pretty good ones in there, covering a wide variety of topics, from early Christian apocrypha to Jewish folktales to evangelical comic strips to a Christian found footage horror movie

It is time once again for me to request that you please tell me a lie and/or urban legend you heard or told about video games as a child.

And here’s the other two covers:

I know it's 2 days to Halloween and very few of you want to think about Xmas yet, but the nature of comics means the time to order STARTLING TALES OF SANTA CLAUS is now! Please let your retailer know you want a copy, and please let me know if you're a media outlet who would like to talk about it!

Falinks should evolve into Fohort and then Falegion (fighting/steel) OR if it takes 300 damage without getting knocked out, Faleonidas (fighting/dark).

Today I learned that Google now looks for synonyms so if you image search “Blastoise father,” it shows you results for “Blastoise daddy” as well. In other news I have now seen Blastoise’s hog.

I got mad about generative AI and channeled it into art. Only losers use AI art.

Good news, everyone. The Apocrypals email got a message from a professional comedy coach so we’re finally going to learn how to be funny.

The question facing New Yorkers these days.

Oh hell yes, it’s The Boy II with my II boys! And Erica!

I need a plugin that turns every post On Here about something terrible or stupid happening in the world (all of it) into a picture of a cool sword.

Crafting an elaborate conspiracy theory built around the fact that Murph and Emily Axford have never been on Game Changer or Make Some Noise.

I never use self check-out because that ain’t my job and I’m not helping the grocery store get free labor from customers so they can employ fewer cashiers.

This is all I want in this fallen world.

Does anyone have any recs for Switch 2 grips? Catching all these Pokémon is making my agéd hands cramp.

A blessed Council of Elrond Day to all who celebrate

Comics Catch-Up! We read James Stokoe's Godzilla Half Century War from 2012 and dug into its 50-year vendetta against the King of Monsters!

Just throwing this out there, but if you see a copy of the ecto-foil variant of HECTOR PLASM #1, you might consider grabbing it. There aren't very many out there. This is also true of the Tom Fowler and Nate Bellegarde covers. These are great covers, massively underordered

In retrospect I should not have been surprised that Sam Reich was into Homestar Runner.

Since I discussed it on Ajax, figured I'd drop the link for my (and Marlene's) improv shows at iO in Chicago on the 25th and 26th! She's in both shows on Saturday; I'm in the 5:30 on Sunday. ci.ovationtix.com/36725/produc...

If you are a comics reviewer or a writer of or about Christmas stuff and you would like an advance pdf of STARTLING TALES OF SANTA CLAUS 2025 (in stores December 3), let me know and I will hook you up. If you would like to talk to me about the book for your publication, hmu

More sword rating on this week's episode, including one of religious and artistic significance!

Four ads from the Previews catalogue for Topps adaptation of the Coppola Dracula movie

Archie's girls...

it's not FOR us

Kara Zor-El knows exactly what makes Earth worth saving.

Gonna keep playing this game until Melinoë admits that Scylla and the Sirens are dropping bangers only.

On this week's show, we took some listener questions, but first, we had to finally learn what the deal is with Joseph Michael Linsner's Dawn.

Fifth anniversary of this masterpiece

We all deserve some new Hector Plasm

In case you've never seen it, please enjoy Shooter Mark Curtis (the referee, RIP) expertly taking down a fan who got in the ring on the September 8, 1997 episode of Nitro. 🤼‍♂️

This is my single favorite second in Tim Rogers' entire 10-hour video review of Cyberpunk 2077.

Workshopping some potential Halloween display names in three different group chats.

Ever since someone wrote in to tell us to keep the conversation to a minimum and do more ranking, I make sure to talk to Matt for 20 minutes about CRY FOR DAWN, a comic neither of us has read.

I’m just going to say it: it’s wack that angels can be saints and Leo ought to do something about it.

On this week's show, we're rating more swords! Some big ones in this batch, too.
