Episode 254: Across the Multiverse (w/ Tony Thornley) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Friend of the show and fellow ComicsXF staffer Tony Thornley is back to talk about one of his favorite types of comic: the intercompany crossover. We read the Marvel half of the recent return to co-publication with Batman and Deadpool, the completely non-sensical most recent Batman/Spawn crossover and the second Batman/TMNT mini-series. The Dead of Knight (Marvel/DC: Deadpool/Batman # 1) Batman/Spawn # 1 A Knight in New York (Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II # 1-6) Check out our current ra
Episode 253: Obsessed Archers and Faceless Vigilantes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Patreon backer Jordan Jennings requested that we read the recent Batman/Green Arrow/Question team-up mini-series, Arcadia, so that makes for an easy theme, right? That mini, plus a story where a Bat characters meets Green Arrow, and one where a Bat character meets Question. Simple. But boy, could we not have gotten three more different stories!

First appearing as a simple henchwoman, then as a regularly abused partner, Harley has grown into an independent characters separate, and possible as popular, as Joker. But that wasn't an easy process. This week, Patreon backer Sam Hopper returns and we investigate three of the stories that took place
Episode 250: The Many Murders of Bruce Wayne (opens the original)
Read excerpt
These milestone episode numbers are getting surreal. 250 episodes. Yikes. For this anniversary, we're looking at stories where Bruce Wayne was suspected of murder. Now, if this was the real world, a lazy billionaire would be prime suspect #1 and I wouldn't be surprised. But we are looking at a fictional world that actually has good billionaires, so guess what? Bruce Wayne is innocent of each of these crimes. There's an issue of the animated series tie-in that riffs on Hitchcock, the wrap up of a
