Ed Brubaker on Batman: Caped Crusader, Streaming Comics, & Comics Adaptations!
Ed Brubaker is one of my favorite writers in comics (I counted: I have 13 of his works in my top 500 favorite comics of all time!). I still kind of can’t believe I got to interview him for nearly two hours!

The transcription has been slightly edited for clarity. Read and enjoy! [Read more…] about Ed Brubaker on Batman: Caped Crusader, Streaming Comics, & Comics Adaptations!

Hear The Doomsayers: Superman, X-Men, Asimov & The Climate Disaster
“It’s suicide. No, it’s worse. It’s genocide!” ~ Jor-El (Superman 1978)
“It isn’t that they question your data. The facts are undeniable. It’s your conclusions *we find unsupportable*” Vond-Ah (Superman 1978)
The history of superhero comics, and so much of pop culture as we know it today, is defined by Jerry Siegel and Joe Schuster’s Action Comics #1. Although it’s retroactively baked into that debut (Krypton is named in Action Comics #1, but Kal-El’s home planet would take a decade to become what we know), the origins of Superman are some of the most well known in all of modern myth. Indeed, Superman’s origins are so ingrained, that it took Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely all of 4 panels and 8 words to summarize on the first page of All-Star Superman #1.
