Bonus Episode! Found behind the sofa, this is technically the first episode of RTCBYD ever recorded, way back in February 2018*. Join your hosts Stu Taylor and Neil Gortz as they discuss this dark and challenging Punisher Max storyline by Garth Ennis and Leo Fernandez. * Excuse the outdated references to the as yet to debut Infinity War movie and second season of the Punisher Netflix show.

In the penultimate episode of season one, Lucy "One Take" James, Neil "Stallone Defender" Gorton and Stu "Dinner Party" Taylor tackle the iconic Judge Dredd villain (villains?) Judge Death and the Dark Judges. Expect segues into giant vagina monsters and '80s dessert choices.

We're back after a mid-season break! This time Lucy James takes co-hosts Neil Gorton and Stu Taylor down to Fabletown... as she weaves a tale of why the critically-acclaimed Fables from DC Vertigo should be in your collection. Along the way we ask the big questions, like can a relationship survive someone eating their grandma and can you copyright a flying monkey?

To celebrate Free Comic Book Day, the BAM Comicscast is giving you a sneak peek at the first episode of its new show, Read This Comic (Before You Die). This time Stu, Neil and Lucy will tell you why X-Men: Grand Design by Ed Piskor deserves to be in your comic book collection.

There's even time to discuss whether legacy numbering for long-established comic series is a good or a bad thing. As always, subscribe to BAM and review us on your podcast channel of choice.

Neil and Stu are back after a summer vacation. This issue was recorded on the 100th birthday of Jack Kirby, so is the perfect excuse to look at what Marvel and DC have published to mark the legendary creator's centennial. Also discussed is the Batman & Harley Quinn animated movie - fitting tribute for Harley's 25th birthday or a killing joke without a punchline? As always, Like, Review and Subscribe to BAM.

Expect split opinions on Spidey's return to the MCU fold as well as a few nerdy revelations that you might have missed. It goes without saying that this one is spoiler-heavy, webheads.

Neil and Stu lose the plot without Carly's guidance and mistakenly declare that Burt Ward has died. Also hear our first-hand LA experiences, from the Adam West memorial, a whistlestop tour of Meltdown Comics and Legacy Comics & Cards, a tour of Warner Bros.

The gang try to keep upbeat in its review and discussion of Netflix's Iron Fist series and the live-action Ghost in the Shell movie. It's a challenge.
