Comics Who Love Comic Books


Aug 25, 2023

My guest this week is comedian Jaye McBride! What happens in Days of Future Past? Which is better, the movie version or the comics version? Is Thanos goofy in the comic books? Is it time to re-read The Dark Knight Returns? What could DC do better with their movies? Are there too many comic book movies coming out? Why did Blue Beetle cut a bus in half when Dr. Strange already did that? Why didn't we get to see Batgirl? What's the deal with The Tick? What makes Spider-Man relatable? Why doesn't Jaye like Superman? Is Superman too powerful? How could we make Superman better? Why does Batman always beat Superman? Was the Snyder cut good? What's the deal with the Snyder Bros? What does Jaye think of Teen Titans Go? How good are the New Teen Titans comics? What is Jaye's graphic novel about? What did Jaye work on during the pandemic? What's a good way to learn to draw? What has Jaye been doing at the Comedy Cellar? Why did they make Superman's son bi instead of gay? Why do they reboot old characters instead of introducing new ones? Who is Stitch? Who was the drag queen character in X-Men? Is DC taking the lead with LGBTQ characters? Who was DC's first transgender character? How could they do a trans character right? Who is Greg Land?
