Comic Patrol Pod
If you’re into comic books and the banter of two “would-be” friends, Coke and Dank, you’ve found the right patrol. This is Comic Patrol! Your stop for wickedly good looking, questionable literacy, and a dangerously deep love-hate connection with comic book culture. With countless years of worlds, stories, and fandoms that have shaped our opinions. Buckle up and join the ride! Warning: Hosts may experience brief moments of cheer as tangents of random discourse of rage often to distract and amuse all parties. #numeatz #sawftcheeze

November 16, 1947. That is when All True Crime Cases #26 was released to the public. Who wrote it? We don't know. Who drew it? We also don't know, but we can tell you what it's about: Totally true crimes that all children should definitely read about... This comic flows through about 5 different stories, ranging from mobsters with guns to murderous circus acts and cowboys. All of which, of course, was marketed towards kids, beca...
Listening order:
- Episode #61 - TMNT: City Fall [Eventus]
- TMNT Vol 8: Northampton [Arc Analysis #33]
- This episode: TMNT Vol 9: Monsters, Misfits & Madmen [AA #119
And we ain't done yet! We're going to keep going, periodically, with this TMNT run because this specific stretch of issues needs to be consumed. Kevin Eastman, Bobby Curnow and Tom Waltz have stuff to say! And so here we are, the next volume, after the bro...
Coke and Dank had a bit of an off week but they didnt stop reading!
TMNT/Batman Pull List continues on as we follow the new creative team taking over the TMNT 2025 series. As well as learn more about Gotham City that Bruce Wayne must navigate. There were laughs, there were explainations, there were comics reviewed, but more than anything there were two guys who found a way to keep talking about TURTLES

- Batman #...
With this 5th volume, Rick Remender and Wes Craig's Deadly Class is now our longest running Arc Analysis saga, beating out Fraction and Aja's 4 volumes of Hawkeye. Considering that Deadly Class vol 1 was our first ever Arc Analysis episode, it seems fitting that we're here with it now. This volume is an introduction to the "new class" of characters, spinning out of the bloody, fiery end of the last volume. That means a lot of new ...
Remember that book we did last week? The one by Tom King and Gabriel Hernandez Walta? Ya, well we realized it is only two volumes long, so we finished it off in it's entirety, back to back. The Vision wants a life of his own, away from the hustle and bustle. He just wants a nuclear family (that he made himself), go to his 9 to 5 (the Avengers), and have completely normal (creepy) neighbours! But it isn't always that easy... Espe...
What's that you say? A machine with a family, trying to act normal in a pleasant, boring society? Pfftt, that's nor exciting! What are Tom King and Gabriel Hernandez Walta thinking writing this Marvel series?
We'll tell ya what, folks - do not judge a book by it's cover because this is definitely not what you're expecting (probably). Whether it's good or not, well, push play and trust the us because we're never wrong.

Imagine your six year old kid goes to sleep one day and just doesn't wake up. Imagine you take her all over the place to difference types of specialists and nobody has any answers for you. Now imagine that an old man flies in, being carried by a flock of owls and tells you he knows a way to save your daughter: jumping into her dreams. Well, that's what The Moon is Following Us is about. Two parents do the unthinkable and jump into...
Well we did it... another Halloween SPOOOOKTACULAAAR!!
The FD'Weapons managed to release a holiday episode on time, and we thought of no better way to celebrate Hallooween with... writer Jeph Loeb and artist Tim Sale (RIP) the re-re-release of Batman's the long Halloween imprint.
But this all started from their Batman: The Long Halloween 13 issue run. (we covered that) Bat Meat and their follow up (we covered that) Dark Victory

Usagi Yojimbo, the samurai rabbit, like you've never seen him before: in space! Talk about a fish out of water story, huh? Here at the pod, we usually love these types of things, where you pluck the hero(es) from a place of comfort and drop them into a setting that is alien to them... in this case, literally.
This is very Star Wars light, as Usagi and friends are tasked with getting codes from an overarching imperial force to save ...
Episode 117 and the Weapons - Keep. Pulling. Comics. Fun doesnt slow down, as we wait for the next TMNT installment to drop. Instead we pivot back to DC's Absolute Universe as they drop their One Shot - Absolute Evil. As is tradition we both read 2 titles and then discuss several titles, from our personal pull lists.
- Batman #2
- Absolute Evil #1

There are a lot of vampire stories out there, but something that sets the second volume of Killadelphia: Burn Baby Burn apart from most bloodsucker tales is transparency, among other things. The police know about the vampires! They know about them and even have a branch of the department that specializes in vampire crimes.
When you take that element and add in the gritty writing, historical recreation elements, and cool cameos, you...
We all have our own descent into madness, right? Dark, murderous thoughts? Life altering childhood trauma? Ok, maybe not ALL of the above, and maybe one of those things is a little spoiler-y for this book, but we're not going to tell you which one!
Crocodile Black is a dark, twisted story about the places dark thoughts (and mental illness) can take someone. It's moody, it's trippt, it's violent and pretty depressing, but is it a go...
Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys debuted back in 1930 and 1927, respectively. And here we are now, in 2025, reading a crossover book from 2017 for our Arc Analysis series.
Not going to lie to you here, we did not know what to expect when we opened up this book, but lets just say it was not at all this. It's a grounded, mature take on joint series of young adult adventure/mystery books. Where this story goes stretches murder, interroga...
Episode 116 will go down as one of those special ones for the Weapons (i cant lie). As we read several titles.

It didn't ALL start here, but at the same time, it kinda did. Riding high on Wolverine's popularity from the late 70's run, that expanded and revamped a villain from a Hulk comic into a mainstay with the diverse X-Men team, Claremont took him solo. And to do this, in 1982, he teamed up with up-and-coming young artist, Frank Miller. Together they created the Japanese backdrop for Wolverine/Logan stories for decades to come.
In this ...
We're back to cover DC's newest properties with their ABSOLUTE imprint. It hasnt been that long since we started in episode #100 but now we've returned to "Alpha World". Can they keep the interest they started with the Holy Trinity of (Wonder Woman, Superman and Batman), now that Martian Manhunter, Green Lanterns and Flash join the fold?
A lot of questions, a lot of issues - the comic patrol is here!

It's been a while since we've done an Across the Pages(Axp) instalment... A type of episode that we like to do where we cross examine (kinda) two similar-ish properties from different universes (sometimes). This ultimately gives us an excuse to do two episode topics at once, where we take in a comic run for each property, as well as a movie for each property as well.
This time around it's Thunderbolts and Suicide Squad. What came ...
We come back to our beloved Deadly Class with volume 4: Die For Me. If you've been following along with the past three volumea, you'll know that the "rats" of the school have been exposed and have targets on their backs. It is up to everybody else in the school to kill and graduate or flunk out of King's Dominion and return home, ashamed. We won't tell you which characters are labeled as "rats" in this description, so if you wanna...
