It’s Rj’s turn to take us back to the year of his birth. It’s 1994, and we are diving head first into Starman by James Robinson, Tony Harris and Wade Von GanBadger. It was a great year for comics, and this is a great pick. We follow a reluctant hero as he deals with the generational baggage of being the third Starman.

It’s Adam’s turn to pick a book from last year, and he’s bringing us Deviant by James Tynion IV and Joshua Hixon. This is a nailbiting ho-done-it that kept us all in suspense up to the very last panel. We all had a lot to say about this one, as it landed right in each of our wheelhouses for different reasons. It had a neo-noir style mystery at its core, it touched on serial killer lore, and also serves as a very important conversation about queer representation in the media.

It’s once again time for another hour of talking about last week’s comics! We get into the important questions. Like how would Martian powers manifest in a gorilla body? How much beef can a velociraptor eat? Who has the right of way on a two-way stop? And so much more!

It’s Adam’s turn to take us back to the year of his birth. And why not also go back to the birth of comics? It’s 1985 and we’re talking about The Dreamer by Will Eisner. This is the semi-autobiographical story of not only Eisner’s rise as one of the best to ever do it, but the story of comics itself. It’s a love letter to comics as told in one of the first “Graphic novels.”

Get ready for a squealchy one! This week, we're peeling back the pages of Cacey's pick from 2024: THE RIBBON QUEEN by Garth Ennis, Jacen Burrows, & Dan Brown. One part supernatural revenge elemental unleashed upon some deserving monsters; one part modern social commentary on police brutality and accountability in America; and it all comes together as one powerful (and icky) narrative!
---TW: s*xual assault, police violence, racism, misogyny, and extreme body horror!---

It’s officially a new season of TFTSB, and we have a new theme! We are each picking a book from the year we were born, and one from the last year. We’re starting out in 1990 with Cacey’s pick Shade The Changing Man by Peter Milligan and Chris Bachalo. We dive down a psychedelic rabbit hole as we explore the Kennedy assassination, corruption in Hollywood and the deteriorating credulity of the American people. It’s a weird one, folks.

It’s our season finale! This week we’re reading Shaun’s foreign pick, Blacksad by Juan Diaz Canales and Juanjo Guarnido. This book was originally published in French, and written by a Spanish creative team, but takes place in mid 20th century America. It’s a refreshing perspective of mid-century politics all told from the perspective of cartoon animals. Tune in for some hard-boiled Antro-Noir.
