Two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun. Hmm, maybe I shouldn't upload podcasts on an empty stomach? Two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun.

The lads need some Vitamin D to defeat the Seasonal Affective Disorder. The crankiness continues. More Cancel Culture, more Moore, more Scott Adams. But then we dive into some Canadian comics since Dan's West Coast Canuck from Lev Gleasonsaw issue #4 solicited. Mounties galore from Semple to Steele.

In this week's episode of "Hey Kids Comics," hosts Mark-12 and Billy-D4 dive into the world of classic superhero comics. They discuss the history of the genre, its most iconic characters, and the evolution of superhero storytelling over the years.



Mark-12 and Billy-D4 also take a deep dive into one of their favorite superhero story arcs: "The Dark Knight Returns" by Frank Miller. They discuss the impact the comic had on the industry and how it changed the way people thought about Batman.



As always, the hosts take listener questions and share their picks for the best new comics to check out. Whether you're a longtime fan or just getting into superhero comics, this episode of "The Hey Kids Comics Radio Show" is sure to entertain and inform.

We go way too deep into the economics of buying trades and hardcovers from the USA. Adam missed the James Gunn DC movie slate discussion, so we rehash that a bit. Tony takes in the sweet, gloriously musty scents of an old box of comics. Adam has a love fest for the X-Men's Forge, and who on Earth thought it was a good idea to mention Alan Moore around Marty? Like, seriously?!?

What could possibly go wrong when asking a 53-year-old, ranty, underslept, neurodivergent, white, non-visible minority (is that a thing?), son of a Polish immigrant for his take on an ethnically diverse, adult-orientated reboot of a beloved Saturday Morning kids cartoon? How bad can it get? Welp, we found out! Oh, and that Guardians of the Galaxy guy made some announcements that triggered the crème de la crème of Snyderverse pundits. I'm not saying we are going to get in trouble with this episode, but I'm also not not saying it either.

Marty teases Tony with his Tarzan digest find. The lads ponder the high cost of Marvel Star Wars and GI Joe comics. We chime in on everyone chiming in on the new Velma TV show. Howard Chaykin is drawing like Howard Charykin. Marty is gushing a bit about the Captain Britain omnibus as we continue with our tiny infatuation with Marvel UK and Chris wants more Bloodshot movies.

Our Bicentennial episode! Who would have thought that a bunch of schmucks driving to a comic convention eight years ago would result in 200 episode radio show? James Gunn is being eviscerated on social media, but DC Comics/Warner Bros has been dysfunctional, at best, for decades. Public Domain Mickey Mouse or Steamboat Willy Mouse? Sony is reaching way down in the licensing barrel for their next slate of movies. And do you remember when Marvel UK had a North American imprint? Death's Head does.

Greetings to 2023!!! The whole gang here hopes you had a great holiday, and we are all ready to talk comics again. Or are we? Highlander 4K has more grain than a Jack Daniel's distillery! Holiday reading taking huge chunks out of our To-Read piles, holiday sales, road trips, and general tomfoolery await your aural pleasure.

This is another one of those episodes that I'm scrambling to get online. Can't remember what we talked about. Can't remember who talked. For sure it was, at minimum, tangentially related to comic books and graphic novels. maybe?

Tony White, Adam Bishop, Chris Ellis and Chris Gilpin rock the mike with a few mail calls. Kickstarter stickers, comics, keychains, galore as we reflect on the projects we backed over the past decade or so. And we almost come to blows when Adam drops a very controversial, "National Treasure is a better movie than Indiana Jones".
