A proposito di questo titolo

Brought to you by the same team behind The Superman Super Show, The Comic Book Super Show is your ticket to the wild, weird, and wonderful world of comics.

Join hosts Ed and Steeven, two regular guys separated by half the United States but united by their love of comics, as they read and discuss their favorite comics, one issue at a time.

Each season will be devoted to a particular storyline or run, letting the pair unpack every twist, panel, and creative choice that makes those arcs sing.

From classic Silver Age capers to gritty modern epics, each episode dives into the story, the art, the creators, and the cultural moments that shaped them. Expect deep dives, goofy banter, surprising context, and plenty of nostalgia.

So pull up a chair, crack open an issue, and come along for the ride as Ed and Steeven read, riff, and celebrate the comic books that hooked them for life.

Season One: Kitty Pryde and Wolverine, the six issue mini series published in 1984 by Marvel Comics.

    IN A WORLD… where comics cost 75 cents, spinner racks ruled the earth, and the X-Men were about to conquer pop culture…

    Two lifelong comic junkies fire up a brand-new podcast and crack open a Marvel time capsule.

    Welcome to Episode 1 of The Comic Book Super Show, as hosts Ed and Steeven kick off their very first season by diving headfirst into Kitty Pryde & Wolverine #1 from August of 1984, a moody, dialogue-heavy, slow-burn classic from Chris Claremont and Al Milgrom that helped define the golden age of 80s Marvel Comics.

    Before Wolverine pops his claws…

    Before ninjas strike…

    Before the body count rises…

    This issue dares to do something unthinkable: no costume, no combat, and barely a whiff of Wolverine at all.

    Instead, it’s all about Kitty Pryde

    She's heartbroken, homesick, and caught in a globe-spanning web of crime, family betrayal, and international intrigue that stretches from suburban Illinois to the shadowy streets of Japan.

    Along the way, Ed and Steeven relive what it was like to read this comic off the rack in the mid-80s, unpack why this era of Marvel still hits so hard, and explore how this miniseries redefined Kitty, Logan, and the very idea of what an X-Men story could be.

    There’s nostalgia.

    There’s history.

    There’s Claremontian wordiness.

    There’s spinner racks, Secret Wars, golden ages, and the birth of one of comics’ most enduring relationships.

    This is not just where the story begins.

    It’s where The Comic Book Super Show is born.

    Kitty Pryde and Wolverine #1 was published by Marvel Comics in August of 1984.
