Time to discuss the season finale of Lanterns. Murderers revealed, oaths stated, and territories divided! Check out Woody and Kurt’s discussion of everything that happens, and what it means for the characters we’ve followed, and will continue to follow in the ongoing DCU.

We name a few suspects in the murder of Hal Jordan, including Hal himself. Do we guess right? And also, what’s that yellow glow coming from down deep in the planet? Hear my theories in the penultimate Deep Dive of Lanterns with guest Woody Gaertner.

Death of a Lantern. We dive into the mystery of who killed Hal Jordan, starting with a revelation about John and Hal meeting the night of the murder. We investigate all the clues, including meeting some new characters and an old…favorite? Well, let’s just say people have strong opinions both ways about this Guy.

This mid-season episode felt like a season finale, with a massive battle in and for the town of Rushville. Guest Woody Gaertner and I have a lot to say, discussing not only this episode, but where things might go from here.

Who Hunts the Manhunters? The Green Lanterns, of course! We reveal the mystery of who the Manhunter is this episode, but more questions are asked than answered in the halfway point of this Lanterns Deep Dive.

How do you make a Green Lantern? That’s the question that John Stewart’s parents have in this episode of the show Lanterns, and that guest Woody Gaertner and I discuss for this episode of the podcast. We also touch quite a bit on John (and Woody’s) experience as a Black man in America, as that is a very important theme of this episode of Lanterns.

Continuing the Lanterns Deep Dive with my guest Woody Gaertner, we discuss Manhunters, Kanes, Mogo, and Sinestro. Find out the significance of all of those and more by taking a listen to this latest episode!

Welcome Back to Welcome to Geektown! We return with a Deep Dive into the DC show Lanterns, currently airing on HBO. This first episode gives us mysteries aplenty, as well as the opportunity to discuss lots of comic book history. Take a listen!

Wrapping up our discussion comic book and television writer Jay Faerber, we discuss a number of his tv projects, especially the ones featuring superheroes, including animated Marvel work, the much-loved “Crisis on Infinite Earths” Arrowverse crossover, and Jay’s current gig adding to the DCU mythos.

We continue to talk with comic book and television writer Jay Faerber, moving on to his creator-owned work at Image (especially Noble Causes), and then move on to his television writing, learning how it began, and answering some basic behind the scenes questions.

Beginning my interview with comic book and television writer Jay Faerber, in this first section we discuss his pre-professional life, then his early works for Marvel and DC, including a stint on The New Warriors (featuring Speedball, so you know we’re focusing on that!)

In this final part of my conversation with Dana Simpson, we get the most personal, as we talk about a planned project of Dana to chronicle her gender transition, then we discuss different ways that has affected her life and other work, as well as get into some political discussion and gender theory.

Continuing our conversation with Dana Simpson, this second part (of three) focuses primarily on “Phoebe & Her Unicorn,” and how it’s changed over the years. Then we touch on a couple of other projects as well, one finished, and one left incomplete.

We start a new conversation this week, this time talking to Dana Simpson, creator of “Ozy and Millie” (now Ozy and Milo), and the NYT Bestselling “Phoebe & Her Unicorn.” This first part starts with her education, then her work on family-friendly “Ozy and Millie” and the political cartoon called “I Drew This.”
