Dr. Sulman Aziz Mirza interviews Paul Jenkins, creator of The Sentry and more.
Paul Jenkins is an award-winning comic book writer and narrative visionary whose work has shaped some of the most iconic characters in modern pop culture. Known for redefining emotional storytelling in comics, Jenkins made his mark with Marvel’s Wolverine: Origin, the Eisner Award-winning Inhumans, and Hellblazer at Vertigo. He’s also the co-creator of The Sentry, the psychologically complex hero whose dual identity—part Superman, part schizophrenic ticking time bomb—has gained renewed attention following his big-screen debut in Marvel’s Thunderbolts. Jenkins brought a deeply human lens to superhero narratives, making The Sentry a standout exploration of mental illness, power, and identity.

Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) risks and benefits explained by a triple-board certified doctor.
🚨 🧠 For all things mental health from Dr. Sulman Aziz Mirza 👉🏼 https://linktr.ee/sulmanazizmirzamd
In this video, I examine how testosterone has gone from being feared to being overhyped as a magic solution for men's health issues. As a triple board certified doctor in psychiatry and addiction medicine, I break down:
• The massive boom in testosterone prescriptions despite no increase in actual deficiencies
• Why testosterone isn't a quick fix for low energy, poor gym results, or lack of motivation
• The serious risks most clinics won't tell you about (including fertility issues and permanent dependency)
• How the multi-billion dollar testosterone industry profits from men's insecurities
You'll learn how to tell if you truly need TRT or if you're being sold false promises, plus the natural ways to support your hormonal health without jumping into lifelong hormone therapy.
