S2 Ep8: What Makes a Good Crossover Event? - 4-Panel Vol. 2, Issue 8

Author: The Geek Show October 16, 2018 Duration: 1:17:08

If you've been reading comics for long enough you'll have the first-hand experience of cross-over events, ranging from the good (The Infinity Gauntlet, Crisis on Infinite Earths), the strange (Justice League Vs. Suicide Squad), the bad (Civil War II), and the truly awful (Secret Empire). Join the Comics Sage (Andrew), Old Man Comics (Mick), and Producer Rob for an adventure with where worlds, and even realities, collide.

After that serious discussion devolves into the usual chuckling at silly names, it's time for our featured comic-books which this week are the third volume of The Legend of Korra: Turf Wars, Tor Freeman's child-friendly supernatural anthology Welcome to Oddleigh, Marilyn’s Monsters by Tommy Redolfi, 3 Story: The Secret History of the Giant Man by Matt Kindt, Venom: Dark Origin, and Captain America: Home of the Brave.

Until next week, keep it 4-Panel, and be wary of those who promise Monsters.

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.
