S2 Ep5: Mature Comics on a 'Serious' Podcast - 4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 6

Author: The Geek Show October 1, 2018 Duration: 1:04:00

It's time for another episode of everyone's favourite comics and manga podcast, so join the Comics Sage (Andrew), Old Man Comics (Mick), and Producer Rob as they discuss the good, the bad, and the sometimes particularly ugly realm of "mature" comics - which does not mean porn! When should a comic or manga be labelled "mature"? What topics or themes would it include? 

Welcome to a "serious" house of "serious" comics on a "serious" podcast.

After that it's back to business as usual with some comics and manga, which this week include Falcon: Take Flight, S.H.I.E.L.D.: The Human Machine, the 7th volume of Fuse's That Time I got Reincarnated As A Slime, and The Paybacks.

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.
