He Ain't Heavy, He's My Lens Flare

After some Thanos-based finger-snapping shenanigans only two-thirds of us are available for this episode, so join Mick and Producer Rob as they discuss J.J. Abrams' new and "subversive" superhero movie, DC's plans for another TV adaptation Swamp Thing, and a strange case involving Superman, Lois Lane, the Church of Scientology and the FBI. After that it's time for a chat about Avengers: Infinity War - which we try to make as spoiler-free as possible.

This week's featured comics are Black Panther: Shuri - Deadliest of the Species, Spider Men II and Punisher: The Platoon. We also have time for another movie (we really are a comics and manga podcast, honest!), with Takashi Miike's adaptation of Hiroaki Samura's violent, supernatural samurai manga series Blade of the Immortal.

Dive deep into the vibrant, inky world of graphic storytelling with 4-Panel | Comics & Manga. Hosted by the crew from The Geek Show, this podcast feels less like a formal review and more like hanging out at your local comic shop, eavesdropping on the most passionate, knowledgeable, and slightly chaotic conversation in the corner. Each episode is a journey through the panels, where the latest superhero movie news might spark a deep dive into its obscure source material, or a review of a classic manga can derail into a hilarious debate about the weirdest trends in sequential art. You’ll hear genuine reactions to the most exciting and baffling news from both Western comics and Japanese manga, alongside unfiltered reviews that celebrate masterpieces and lovingly roast the odd misfire. The charm of this show lies in its authentic, meandering energy-the hosts get genuinely excited and distracted, following tangents that often lead to the best insights. It’s a celebration of the entire culture, from big-screen adaptations to the indie zine you’ve never heard of. Tune in for a weekly dose of enthusiasm that reminds you why you fell in love with these stories in the first place.
