This week on Beyond the Pull List, things get absolutely wild!

We kick things off with our weekly pulls, which includes Clayton dropping Captain America, reacting to Superman #37, and Paul's continuing frustration with the Spider-man/Venom offices.

But then… it happens.

Spider-Man meets Superman and we get VENOMIZED SUPERMAN!

So, of course, we had to talk about it!

From there, we rank the best Spider-Man/Superman crossover stories, break down the new Clayface trailer, and debate why it might be one of the most anticipated projects of the year (at least for Paul).

We also talk:

• Rumors about the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day film
• Disney layoffs and AI in entertainment
• Why AI can be a tool but not a replacement
• And the emotional Invincible Season 4 finale

This episode is honestly one of our most fun yet.

So grab your snacks and a Mountain Dew because this is Beyond the Pull List!

Comic fans are deeply divided about Ultimate Spider-Man — and in this episode, we dig into why.

Clayton and Paul sit down for a long-form comic discussion covering several of the biggest books on the stands right now, including Transformers #30, Absolute Batman #18, Absolute Superman #17, and Death Spiral #1.

But the heart of the conversation centers on the biggest debate in modern Spider-Man fandom: Why does Ultimate Spider-Man have readers so split?

Is it the slower pacing?
The heavy dialogue?
Is it the way the story focuses on Peter Parker’s life and relationships rather than constant action?

Or is this exactly what makes the series special?

We talk about storytelling weight, character development, and what fans actually want from a Spider-Man comic.

Whether you love the book or struggle with it, this episode explores both sides of the debate and why this run has become one of the most talked-about Spider-Man series in years.

Join the conversation and let us know where you land.

Is this the future of Spider-Man storytelling… or a swing that misses?
