"I don't like the idea of retreading ground that's been trod in the books that I love. I don't like the idea of getting access to this stuff and then being a covers band." This week on Mojoverse Premium we're so lucky to sit down with Dan Watters to discuss Batman Dark Patterns, our comic of the year for 2025. We discuss the books origins, how Dan created more interesting locations in Gotham, and

One last word on the Age of Revelation. We sat down with author and artist Tony Fleecs to discuss Omega Kids, Tony and Andres Genolet's tale of Quentin Quire navigating perhaps his most personal challenge--being uncool in front of teenagers! It's a fun time and one that hit your hosts very hard with its educational setting. Later we discuss the upcoming fifth arc of Feral and Deathstroke the Terminator.

The Age of Doug has come and gone and now we deal with the fallout in SHADOWS OF TOMORROW!!! It's a good month with a paltry 10 books to discuss. Hey do you remember how the first episode was us discussing the first month of FTA and it was just 4 comic books? Good times. Cyclops takes a shot. Shwartschild takes a dive. Sabretooth haunts his ex's adopted daughter.

Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer, he's a demon on wheels. You might know Speed Racer from it's original animated form a chintzy but charming American translation of the original Japanese anime Mach GoGoGo. Maybe you're most familiar with the incredible, but divisive, Wachowski sisters film from 2008. We were lucky to sit down with friend of the show (and more importantly, author of the comic) David Pepose to discuss his first arc of Speed Racer, what we can expect from the second lap, and how he tackles some of the artistic challenges of creating a book based on such a beloved series.

Our Generation X Marathon continues to the END of volume 1! Boy howdy is it different! The revolution 6 month gap sure does wreck this book, but not worse than Warren Ellis' edgy 00's nihilism. There is fun to be had though! A great big hug from Monet and Jubilee and we see Jono with his shirt off! Look, we know we're grasping at straws here, but this is how the book ends!
