  • Welcome to The Stacks: David Brothers and Chip Zdarsky
    Jul 4 2025
    A new phase of Comic Book Couples Counseling begins today with The Stacks, our new YouTube series where we trap comic book creators inside Third Eye Comics in Annapolis, Maryland, and force them to discuss their all-time favorite comic books. Time Watis collaborators and Mangasplaining co-hosts David Brothers and Chip Zdarsky launch the series. As you'll see, they enthusiastically tease each other while naming some of the most brilliant comic books ever published. The first season of The Stacks will be published weekly for two months. We filmed each episode at Third Eye Comics, one of the country's GREAT comic book stores, and each guest approached the mission of highlighting their favorites in unique ways. In addition to David Brothers and Chip Zdarsky, season one will consist of Benjamin Percy (Predator vs. Spider-Man, X-Force), Phillip Kennedy Johnson (Batman and Robin, The Incredible Hulk), Sanford Greene (Bitter Root, Doom), Chris Condon (Ultimate Wolverine, News From The Fallout), and Brad and Lisa Gullickson (hey, that's us!). Season One may include a few surprise guests, too. So, cross your fingers. Here's what we need from you. If you dig this concept and you want to see more episodes with comic book creators standing in front of comic shelves yammering about their favorite comics, please, please, please share the video with your friends. Like, subscribe, and all that stuff you're tired of hearing about, but that's how the word spreads. We're extremely excited about The Stacks and want to do a lot more of them, but we need an active and engaged audience to do that. Comic Book Couples Counseling listeners are some of the most dedicated comic book readers on the planet, and we know you have our back. Comics have deserved a format like The Stacks for a long time. Comics are the greatest storytelling medium on the planet. Let's show the world why and help find some new comic book readers in the process. Thank you, friends. If you want to visit The Stacks in person, get yourself to the Third Eye Comics mothership in Annapolis, Maryland: 209 Chinquapin Round Rd, Suite 200, Annapolis, MD 21401. Phone: 410-897-0322.

  • Berkowitz Bros on The Writer, Their Aggressively Middle-Aged Hero
    Jun 30 2025
    We love a good comic book explosion. The Writer smashes superheroes, comic book history, Jewish Folklore, Indiana Jones, The Princess Bride, Mike Mignola, and a little Looney Tunes existential dread. It's born from a unique sibling collaboration between the Berkowitz Bros., Max and Ben, as well as actor Josh Gad, master illustrator Ariel Olivetti, and letterer Frank Cvetkovic. At its center is the aggressively middle-aged Stan Siegel, a comic book writer avoiding life's next big chapter, who gets sucked into a supernatural battle with demons and nazis. And drags his mother and daughter into that war alongside him. The Writer is a meta feast for those steeped in comics and pop culture, nodding to the iconic and not-so-iconic characters who populate our collective imagination. With the trade paperback now available from Dark Horse Comics, we were eager to have the Berkowitz Bros. on the show this week. We discuss their comic book origin stories, a particular Bob Kane painting, middle-aged hero worship, and celebrating family. The conversation stirs intense feelings about siblings and why they make the best and worst collaborators. Also, during this week's introduction, we dive into our first HeroesCon experience. Did we meet all the creators we wanted to meet? Did we buy all the comics we wanted to buy? Are Rick Quinn and Dave Chisholm as cool in person as they are in our six Spectrum podcast episodes? We get into it. And don't forget to follow the Berkowitz Bros. on Blue Sky, Instagram, and their website. This Week's Sponsor We're sponsored by 2000 AD, the greatest comic you're not reading! Within its pages is a whole universe of characters, from Judge Dredd and Strontium Dog to Rogue Trooper, Shakara, Halo Jones, and the poor sods slogging across the Cursed Earth in The Helltrekkers.

  • Breaking News from the Fallout with Chris Condon and Jeffrey Alan Love
    Jun 25 2025
    Once again, fear and dread shroud the world outside our window. Chris Condon and Jeffrey Alan Love offer assistance with their terrifyingly relatable News from the Fallout, a zombie story that chews on the military-industrial complex, belief in apocalyptic certainty, and humanity's stumbling response. You can read their series as a scary, thrilling, atmospherically rich shock-fest or recognize its narrative as our past, present, but hopefully not future. The zombie genre has served humanity well since Night of the Living Dead hit drive-ins in 1968. The Walking Dead subgenre allows creators to house all their political anxieties into a thrilling narrative, offering cathartic relief to their hungry audience. When there's no more doom to scroll, the dead will stalk your imagination. Of course, News from the Fallout's shambling creatures is not necessarily zombies. They're the Rotten, poor fools who followed orders and got their face full of some unknown agent after a military test goes wrong...or right. Only Otis Fallows was smart enough to slap on a gas mask and flee across the Nevada desert. With beasts on his heels, the soldier finds solace in a diner full of patrons. They should all listen to reason and band together against a ravenous horde. Tune in next month for the second issue. Until then, enjoy our hearty conversation with Chris Condon and Jeffrey Alan Love. We discuss George R. Romero's zombie legacy, the Criterion Collection, and how it feels to work in a terrifying narrative that doesn't look much different than what we see daily on TV and our phones. News from the Fallout looks unlike anything else in comic shops right now, thanks to Jeffrey Alan Love's incredible work, which embraces distortion and atmosphere to achieve emotional reality. So, naturally, we gotta dig into the whole look, too. News from the Fallout #1 is out now from Image Comics. It's written by Chris Condon, illustrated by Jeffrey Alan Love, lettered by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, and designed by Michael Tivey. Follow Chris Condon on Bluesky. Follow Jeffrey Alan Love on Instagram and his Website. This Week's Sponsor We're sponsored by 2000 AD, the greatest comic you're not reading!

This is the best analysis of comic book couples you can imagine! Brad and Lisa apply real-world couples' counseling principles (with a dash of salt) to some of comics' most beloved couples like Cyclops and Jean Grey. Highly informative, entertaining, and recommended!

Very unique idea!
