Coffee & Comic Books

This week on the show, we read a cult classic, Miss Ruki by Fumiko Takano. Running in a women's fashion magazine in the 80s, this book is all about a carefree young woman who bucks trends and lives life for herself. I think long time listeners might find some interesting parallels between this and Invitation from a Crab, not least because they're both excellent books.

This time we are joined by Casey to talk about Walt Simsonson's run on Fantastic Four. There's mecha Stalin, crass commercial cash grabs, time travel, and a little alien who LOVES trains. It's so much fun. Next time, Rick and I will be back to talk about Olivier Schrauwen's graphic novel Sunday!

We are joined once again by Nora of 2WBY fame to talk about the second film in M. Night Shyamalan's shared universe super hero movies! It's about as fun and also dumb as that sounds.

This week on the show, Rick and I tackle a series from one of the most legendary creative teams in comics history! Mort Cinder was written by Héctor Germán Oesterheld and illustrated by Alberto Breccia and has had tremendous influence on creators across the globe. But more importantly: it's so much fun. Classic horror, sci-fi, fantasy and pulp adventures that are thoughtful and absolutely gorgeous. Next time, we'll be talking about Pim and Francie, a collection of illustrations from Al Columbia!

This week we hop into Sammy Harkham's comic about an Iranian-Jewish immigrant trying to make it in the hell world of 70s Hollywood. It's a fantastic book, especially if you're a fan of schlock.

Rick and I dive into the multiverse of Bryan Talbot's Luther Arkwright. A comic straight out of Michael Moorcock's Thatcher fueled nightmares, and an utterly remarkable piece of work. It's simply the greatest comic of all time. Check out more in depth show notes by going to our Tumblr and find our schedule by going to exportaud.io/coffeeandcomicbooks Follow Autumn on Bluesky !

This week we get isekai'd into the strange land of Mazeworld. It's a mostly fun romp through a ludicrous fantasy setting but also they shouldn't draw black people like that.

Rick and I dive into Ann Nocenti and John Romita Jr.'s classic and often overlooked run on Daredevil. These first 15 issues focus primarily on Matt's tangle with the deadly Typhoid Mary, as the book looks for an identity that is not totally defined by Miller's run while still giving the fans what they want. It's an absolute blast. Check out more in depth show notes by going to our Tumblr ! Follow Autumn on Bluesky ! Follow Rick on Bluesky and Patreon ! Our art was done by Cam !

Hello, Niamh here! I am not on this episode but I'm taking over some of the scheduling, uploading, and promotion sides of production. Mostly what this means is I have decrees Coffee and Comic Books to be an every-other-Monday podcast, or at least that's the goal I'm setting. Anyway, on this episode Rick and Autumn continue their discussion of Hellboy with the third library edition, and we'll see you again in two weeks with an episode on Hellboy Library Edition volume 4! Also, Autumn and I are still working out plans for which episodes of Hellboy will be free public episodes and which will be Patreon-only exclusives, so if you're listening in the free feed and there isn't a new episode in two weeks it's because it's on the Patreon .

Does it count against the run if I talk about a comic for four year olds that includes talking dogs? It's not Dog Man at least. In this episode, we talk about Yuichi Yokyama's New Engineering! We mostly spend the time breaking down what is even happening in these very iconographic stories about very abstract concepts. It's comics at their purest, we LOVED it.
