    Moon Knight is an A-Hole | #36

    Moon Knight is an A-HOLE Deadpool is depressed. The moon is apparently f*cked. Moon Knight betrays his entire team. Batman punches an assassin directly into next Tuesday. And somehow Skipping Stone is the name Marvel settled on for a Toad/Blob descendant. Yep. It's another Pull Party. We're talking Deadpool #7, Bishop #2, Moon Knight #7, Batman #12 by Matt Fraction, Power Rangers: Green #1, upcoming comics, ridiculous variant covers, and a whole lot of comic-book nonsense. We also get into the increasingly bizarre mystery surrounding Batman's hallucinated Alfred, the six assassins coming after Bruce Wayne, Storm's absolutely insane power level, and the possibility that Mr. Sinister is secretly behind everything in Bishop because obviously he is. Then we end the show by throwing the MCU into a wood chipper and arguing about Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the Hand, Kingpin, Daredevil, Hulk, Jean Grey, Yelena, and whether the movie would have been better with Typhoid Mary. Spoiler warning: We talk openly about major plot points and endings from the comics we read. Join the Pull Party Discord!

    Spider-Man: Brand New Day | #35

    LARPers be LARPing!Comic books are for everybody... unless you ask the internet. This week we're ranting about comic book gatekeeping, "fake fans," rage bait, and why people can't just let other people enjoy things. Along the way we somehow end up talking politics in comics, Absolute Batman, comic conventions, collecting, and the never-ending quest to spend way too much money on funny books. Robert goes to the world's largest G.I. Joe convention....and buy Batman. Paul gives an update on his webcomic while adding even more Absolute Batman homage covers to the collection. If you've ever been called a fake fan because you didn't memorize forty years of comic continuity... this one's for you. 👍 Like the video if you enjoyed it. 💬 Tell us your hottest comic book take in the comments. 📚 Subscribe for weekly comic book discussions, reviews, interviews, and comic shop nonsense.

    Pull Party Presents | Bob Quinn - He created Marvel's weirdest mutant and now it's your problem.

    We sat down with comic artist Bob Quinn and spent a shocking amount of time discussing a mutant that poops ice cream. Then we accidentally had one of the best creator interviews ever, talking X-Men, Black Cat Social Club, leaving the video game industry, unfinished passion projects, nostalgia for arcades, and why sometimes the dumbest joke you draw in a laundromat refuses to die. Comics are weird, man... and we wouldn't have it any other way. Bob's Links! Bob's Website Bob's Instagram Bob's League of Comic Geeks Profile Buy Black Cat Social Club! Way of X Trade Paperback!

    What's in the BAG!? | #34

    Pull Party #34 | Gambit: Wanted #1 / Batman of Two Worlds / Superman: Father of Tomorrow #3 / Ordained: The Machine San Diego Comic-Con dropped enough announcements to fry our collective comic book brains, but first we argued about whether a desert is technically half a beach, opened way too many blind bags, and learned Ninja Turtles started life by lovingly making fun of Daredevil. Then we yelled about Gambit's fashion choices, Godzilla punching children (sort of), and enough new comics to make our wallets file for bankruptcy.

    Pull Party #33 | Absolute Green Arrow / Ordained / Deathstroke

    Paul nearly dissolved his face with a Sour Punch Straw and Red Bull combo because apparently we listen to the comments now. After surviving that terrible decision, we argued about Absolute Deathstroke, accidentally connected half the Absolute Universe together like conspiracy theorists with a corkboard, declared Dork is still criminally good, and somehow ended up talking about Batman bullying KGBeast for like twenty minutes.

    Pull Party #32 | Absolute Batman / Clayface / Dispatched / Rocketeer / Witness Point

    This week starts with Twizzlers as drinking straws and dives headfirst into Batman traffic patterns, angry YouTube comments, Absolute Batman insanity, and Paul declaring war on scalpers (again) with the calm energy of a raccoon trapped in a vending machine. Also, if you came here expecting reasonable comic book discourse... that's honestly on you.

    Pull Party Presents | Zayne Henderson

    We dragged Zayne Henderson into the madhouse to talk comics, content creation, Batman, Daredevil, collecting, and why discussion is so important among people who are different. Somehow this turned into one of the most wholesome conversations we've ever had... don't worry, Paul still made sure we couldn't monetize it. You may ask yourself, "why do I care?" Honestly, that's a damn good question. But I will say this conversation is a good one that brought some perspective and appreciation to us. We had fun doing it. Thank you again, Zayne! Zayne's Links TikTok: tiktok.com/@lilsalsaboii Apple Music: music.apple.com/us/artist/zayne-henderson/1565886662 What We Chatted About: 00:00 - Meet Zayne, internet positivity, and immediately forgetting to introduce the guest 12:00 - Everybody explains how comic books completely took over their lives 31:30 - Batman, Daredevil, and arguing over what actually makes great superheroes 48:00 - Collecting comics, variants, grading, and why our wallets never recover 01:05:00 - Dream projects, favorite creators, and the books we'd recommend to anybody 01:32:00 - DC, Marvel, future stories, and nerding out over what's coming next 01:47:00 - Representation in comics, the business behind publishing, and why Batman always pays the bills 02:08:00 - Final rapid-fire comic nonsense before everyone escapes with what's left of their dignity Tags your mom wouldn't understand (SEO):#zanehenderson #batman #daredevil #dccomics #marvelcomics #comiccollecting #absolutebatman #comicpodcast #dcsowhite #diversity
