Also discussed: super-heroines as real world politicians, what makes a meaningful comic book death, and Friends (NBC). You can see Kevin perform improv comedy with The Curfew and the Brothers Hines at the UCB Theatres in New York City. You can also follow him on Twitter @kevhines and his comic book thoughts on Tumblr. Our next book club selection is Generation X #1-4 (1994) by Scott Lobdell and Chris Bachalo.

    In a shocking twist, the guests introduce a comic book to Matt and Brett. Whoah! Things get downright creepy as the foursome tear into the first Locke & Key mini-series by IDW Publishing.

Jeremy Bent can be seen on the improv team Thank You, Robot and in the web-series Quest For An Unknown Planet. Frank Hejl writes and performs with the sketch team Onassis.

    Matt & Brett Love Comics! in association with Left Handed Radio present The Sequel Machine. Every month, The Sequel Machine recruits 25 writers to write the sequels for film’s biggest franchises one page at a time.

This month: Dark Knight 4.

    06/08/2012 Duração: 01h03min

    Things get spooky this week, though it has less to do with The Night Things and more to do with the tales told by this week’s guest, sketch comedy writer Kerry McGuire. Actually, not “spooky” so much as dark. We discuss Nicole’s pick, the first Courtney Crumrin series from Oni Press. The book inspires a little bit of talk about childhood alienation and a lot of talk about pupils. Eye pupils.
