Advertise on podcast: WORST. COMIC. PODCAST. EVER!

It's another one of those weeks where we think we have nothing to talk about, and then we talk and talk for more than an hour. You're welcome! First and foremost, our thoughts are with artist Adam Hughes this week. Get better, sir! You still have hundreds, if not thousands, of variant covers to do. A new biography is coming out this summer focusing on a creator billed as "the greatest living comic book writer and artist." We take a look at the creator, list some pros and cons for that choice, and offer up a few alternatives.  It was a rough week to be an editor at Marvel. Disappointing but not unexpected. Have you made your Free Comic Book Day plans yet? Come out to Independence and see Jerry and John at Clint's.  We have our weekly Pick 3 choices, sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics. Plus, Cullen is back with a brand new trivia question, and John has a look at last week's top ten books. We would love to hear your comments on the show.

Welcome back! We are all in the studio this week for our Planet Comicon wrap-up. We discuss what we did at the Hero Initiative table, how the panels went for us, and all of the good memories from the weekend.  We all got to stop in at a variety of stores over the last week, picking up new comics and old books along the way.  Of course, with everything going on with Planet, we are behind on some of our TV viewing. New episodes are coming out left and right for Daredevil, The Boys, and Darth Maul, among others.

So, what did everyone do last weekend? For the guys of the Worst Comic Podcast Ever, well, we manned the Hero Initiative table at Planet Comicon. We set up at Boulevard Brewery for a drink and draw fundraiser. We hosted five panels with the likes of Dan Mora, Adam Kubert, Paul Dini, Chris Claremont, and many more. We did a live podcast panel complete with guest artists. And somehow, we even made time to record our next Book Club episode! This time, we are travelling back to the mid-1980s as we revisit the Teen Titans for The Judas Contract, where the Titans discovered a traitor on their team, Jericho signs up for the team (see what I did there!), and Dick Grayson finally decides on a new costumed identity. Written by Marv Wolfman with art by George Perez, this is THE Teen Titans story to read. Recorded on the con floor, Jerry, John, and Cullen are joined by loyal listener Eric Haar as we dissect this storyline.  Stick around to the very end to find out about next month's selection for WCPE Book Club. We return to the MCU, and we stick with a story from the 1980s, but it's set in the far future.  We would love to hear your comments on the show.

Look what Wednesday has given you! A brand-spankin' new episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER! It's going to be a great day, as new comics are out today and you have Cullen, Jerry, and John to talk nerdy with for the next hour. The big book of the week has to have been DC KO #5, wrapping up the battle between Luthor Superman and Darkseid. And as much as this was an ending to the mini-series, it serves as a teaser for what DC Comics has planned for the rest of 2026. Shocking news out of the Pacific Northwest this week, as Mike Richardson was let go from Dark Horse Comics. While, on the face of it, that was a shock to many people in the industry, reading between the lines shows that this move was bound to happen. We just were not expecting it this week in this manner. Did you see the trailer for Lanterns coming later this year on HBO? We cannot wait to hear Kyle Chandler's southern drawl reciting the Green Lantern oath. The Beauty wrapped up season 1 over at FX/Hulu. Will there be a season 2? We are just two weeks away from Planet Comicon. We got some panel news to share with you, and we expect you to attend all of them.  We have our weekly Pick 3 choices, sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics.  We would love to hear your comments on the show.

Welcome back, our friends, to the show that never ends! It's time for another WCPE Book Club. This month, we are looking at Marvel's The X-Men Vs. The Avengers from 1987. Written by Roger Stern* and drawn by Marc Silvestri*, this is the first major match-up between the two powerhouse teams. Sit back and enjoy the musings of Cullen, Jerry, and Earth-2 John (a.k.a. John Hilderbrand) as we pick through the details of this four-issue series, and reveal the behind-the-scenes battle behind issue #4.  Stick around to the very end to find out about next month's selection for WCPE Book Club.

ComicsPro, the comic shop retailer network, held its annual meeting last week in Los Angeles. Many of the publishers used the opportunity to showcase new projects and announcements. DC led the way with some absolute - or should we say ABSOLUTE - book news that has everyone ready for more.  Speaking of DC Comics, does the publisher have a flagship team book right now? It's an interesting debate, and the answer might be no. Give us a listen and let us know your thoughts.  WCPE Book Club is next week. Be sure to read Avengers vs. X-Men from 1987 before next week's show. Drop us a line if you would like to sit in on the recording this weekend.  Don't panic, but Planet Comicon is coming up soon.

DC KO #4 came out last week, getting us to the champion to go up against Darkseid. So who won the tournament? And will they be able to defeat Darkseid?

After last week's Book Club discussion on Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, it's time to get back to talking about comics, TV shows, and the other nerdy topics our wives are tired of hearing us talk about. You're welcome! The new Wonder Man series dropped on Disney+ at the end of January. We have all watched it, mostly loved it, and have lots of thoughts to share on Simon and Trevor.  John got caught up on The Beauty over on FX/Hulu. People, you need to be watching this show. Heck, you can get your significant others to watch it, too. Just don't mention right away that it's based on a comic book from friends Jeremy Haun and Jason Hurley.  Kevin Maguire was in the news over at Bleeding Cool this past week.

Every year, it feels like January is 45 days long - it just goes on and on and on, which means that you had plenty of time to read our selection for the WCPE Book Club. This month, we are looking at Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow from 2022. Writer Tom King, artist Bilquis Evely, and colorist Matheus Lopes craft an amazing journey for Supergirl and her newfound companion, Ruthie, who is looking to avenge her father's death. For this discussion, we are joined by Eddie Iiams, who sat in with us last fall when we discussedThe Terrifics.  Stick around to the very end to find out about next month's selection for WCPE Book Club.

Cullen had to sit out on this week's podcast, as he received a last-minute invite to moderate some comic book panels at Fan Expo Portland. He'll be back next week with all kinds of stories to share about who he met over the long weekend.  Meanwhile, back in Kansas, John and Jerry are knocking out the podcast this week. We've got a lot of small items to discuss, but nothing that will dominate the entire episode. Call it our bullet points podcast. DC KO #3 came out last week, with some odd team-ups and power swaps.

Due to the timing of our book club last week, we held off looking at some end-of-the-year sales charts for 2025. What were the best-selling individual issues and titles for the past year? If you want to be on top, you'd best have the words "Absolute" and/or "Batman" in your title.  Jerry has an interesting story to share about shopping for a Shazam book last weekend.  There are two new comic book Humble Bundle offerings that we think you should look at. One of them benefits the Hero Initiative.  Have you started reading Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow yet?
