When Alex Maleev paints Daredevil, you can feel the sweat in that red suit. When he sketches Miles Morales you might get worried Miles is gonna fall off that building. We know and love his art from Spider-Woman, Moon Knight, Batman, Hellboy, and the Scarlet series, many created with Brian Michael Bendis. But we also know Alex because he lives here in Brooklyn and we were lucky enough to sit down in person with Alex to talk about his gorgeous new series Masterpiece. Also, to talk about why he loves the UFC. Music by Adam Bernstein!

On this episode, find out why Doug and Adam will NEVER interview Jim Steranko—and why we love him anyway. Artist, writer, historian, magician, escape artist, musician, character designer of Indiana Jones, character designer of Coppola’s Dracula, and owner of an amazing head of hair, there is only one Steranko. We met him at Comicon this year and here’s the story of the handshake that almost cut off the circulation to my whole arm. With music by Adam Bernstein, natch!

Sure, you’ve heard about Dr. Wu. Peg. Josie. Rikki, who really shouldn’t lose that number. But here’s a question: What do they look like? Well, wonder no more. In this episode, Doug and Adam sit down with the amazing artist who decided to paint every Steely Dan character. You read that right. Joan LeMay has painted ALL of the characters in Steely Dan’s songs in the book she created with the very talented Alex Pappademas. And Joan was just as much of a fun, unpredictable character as any of her subjects. Listen, download, like, subscribe and we promise Mr LaPage will be your man.

On the 101st Episode of the Greatest Comic Book Podcast of all time, we dive into uncharted territory: Power Records! In the 1970s, you didn’t just want to read your comics. You wanted to hear them, too. That’s where Power Records came in, creating comic books for your turntable, and this episode plays all the hits, from the Six Million Dollar Man vs Santa, to the Planet of the Apes, to Spidey vs Little Women. Elevating the conversation is the fabulous Kevin Maher. Kevin geeks out as only he can do, and also explains to us why these little 45 RPM records were actually good for kids! As if this isn’t enough, you’ll also get the superhero earworm you didn’t know you needed (by Adam Bernstein and Sam Mastandrea), but you really do need it. Put the needle on the record!

The greatest sci-fi movie of all time. The greatest comics creator of all time. The power of Marvel Comics. Bring them all together, and what could go wrong? Everything. On this episode, we crack open the mystery of Jack Kirby’s weirdest sci-fi comic, tell stories about Stanley Kubrick, propose new ideas for tattoos, and Adam Bernstein gets operatic. With special guests, Dave Baeumler, Sam Mastandrea, and Julian Darius. What’s not to love?

On our latest episode: The world’s greatest comic book shop opens its doors for the Grown Ass Men! We toured the amazing Metropolis Collectibles and invaded the sanctum sanctorum of suave head honcho Vincent Zurzolo to see the collection and hear stories of Vincent’s career, Harry Houdini’s handcuffs, Nicolas Cage’s stolen comics and tons more. Vincent’s theme by Adam Bernstein!

It started with an irresistible tweet: What are your favorite runs in comics? It’s the kind of easy/hard question grown ass men love to ask themselves, and this time it was being asked by writer Jimmy Palmiotti. Adam leapt into action, contacted Jimmy, and we made our lists. The conversation was a total pleasure because Jimmy’s not only knowledgeable and funny, he’s also a total fanboy of the comics he loves. We covered our favorite runs as well as some of the great work he’s done with the amazing Amanda Conner. Thanks for being on the show, Jimmy!
