Under the Comic Covers (comics)

Under the Comic Covers ends where it began four years ago, with The Walking Dead. We found it fitting and appropriate for this book to be the final issue we dive into. 

Thank you all for your support over the years, and we hope you have enjoyed this experience nearly as much as we have. 

Enjoy...

Under the Comic Covers has the distinct pleasure of talking about two fantastic issues of two fantastic books in this episode. We open with The Walking Dead #174, giving us our best look yet at Negan's inner-self as well as giving us, the readers, some well earned closure for a couple of characters. We then move on to Paper Girls #18, where we get some much needed exposition which completely alters our view of the various players in this particular story.

This week, Under the Comic Covers welcomes a new book to the roster as well as closes out another arc of a more familiar title.

First up, we discuss Rat Queens, Vol 2 #5 and talk about how the first arc since it's reboot finishes up. We then move on to Terry Moore's Motor Girl Vol 1: Real Life. This is our first title from Terry Moore that we have covered on the show, and sadly, there are only two issues remaining in the series. We look forward to closing out this book in a few months, and are even more excited for what Terry Moore and his Abstract Studio have for us next.

After having a week off, Under the Comic Covers returns fired up and ready to talk about a few comics. First up, we discuss the latest issue of the Eisner (very well) awarded Saga #45. We follow this up with Royal City #5. A week late... but better late than never. Finally we wrap up the week with Wayward #22.

Unfortunately, we had a little technical snag with Grace's recording, so her track isn't as crystal clear as we would like. Please accept our apologies for the subpar quality of this week's episode... but I hope the quality of the chatter makes up for whatever we are lacking in audio prowess.

Enjoy...

Under the Comic Covers is so pleased to discuss three great books this week after having the last week off. First up, we talk about Saga #44, the second issue of this new arc... followed by Royal City #4, another deep dive into the emotional abyss that is Jeff Lemire... and all rounded out by Wayward #21, the first issue of the new arc, starting off with a bang, and a surprising amount of emotion from the unlikeliest of characters.

Enjoy...

Not all books are created equal, and this week gives us two examples of how you wrap up an arc in spectacular fashion, and Under the Comic Covers is here to dig deep into why these two issues work so well. First, we discuss The Walking Dead #168, an amazing issue that still manages more than a few laughs, a few tense moments, and enough sadness to crack the toughest heart. Then we move on to Paper Girls #15... we are left with so many new questions, and the promise of something great when this book returns.

Under the Comic Covers is no stranger to depressing material... but this week? This week delivers an emotional punch that, even though we saw it coming, landed with a hard gut churning thud. The Walking Dead #167 tackles one of it's saddest moments in a long history of sad moments, and we are there to talk it through.

In addition to the misery-fest that is The Walking Dead this month, we also cover some lighter fare... and by that we mean a couple other books that are violent, chaotic, and occasionally funny. Manifest Destiny #28 returns to the psycho fog, and Paper Girls #14 finds our intrepid explorers reunited, if for just a brief moment.

Enjoy... and we hope you are all alright. Consider this your group therapy.

First up is Paper Girls #13, still confounding us at every turn, yet just as compelling as always.

It is with very heavy hearts that Under the Comic Covers chats about the final issue of one of the books that inspired us to create this podcast in the first place. Sure it was The Walking Dead that was the first book for us to cover, but it was Revival that made us want to branch out and discuss something more than just zombies... so we decided to talk about people who have risen from the dead and can not die anymore. Totally different! And in fact, it was totally different. Tim Seeley and Mike Norton created an amazing rural noir that took five years to complete, and took a wonderfully long and winding road to it's beautiful and satisfying conclusion.

Without further ado, our discussion of Revival #47. Enjoy!

It's the second slow week for new comic releases (that we cover at least), but Under the Comic Covers returns after a week off to continue our discussion of Brian K. Vaughan's classic comic masterpiece, Y: The Last Man with Volume 8: Kimono Dragons. Fear not however, next week we will return with five big titles to discuss!

Also, the audio quality of this episode is not what our listeners have come to expect from us. We had some technical difficulties during the recording of the episode that wasn't discovered until the editing had begun. Our apologies, the problem will be corrected immediately.

This week, Under the Comic Covers presents the shortest episode to date, but that says nothing about the book we discuss.

114: Southern Bastards, Vol 3: Homecoming

After two false promises, we are finally able to cover Southern Bastards, Vol 3: Homecoming. Who knew they would change the number of issues per volume, completely change the book's narrative structure, and space it out over the course of the last year? Not Under the Comic Covers, but we were patient (eventually), and that patience paid off in what is an amazing story of a southern county gone from bad to worse on the back of the hubris of one small man. Join us as we delve into this modern southern gothic tale of lies, betrayal, and football.

113: The Walking Dead #154; Nailbiter #21; Rat Queens #16; Revival #39

Four big titles this week, and Under the Comic Covers is happy to go over at least three of the four books. Unfortunately, we bid adieu to Rat Queens as issue #16 leaves us both a little cold as it takes it's final bow. On the plus side, The Walking Dead #154 is one of the more hilarious (yes, seriously... hilarious) issues of TWD we've ever read, Nailbiter #21 begins what is sure to be a spectacular arc, and Revival #39 moves the story forward in a big way.

112: Saga #36; Sex Criminals #15

This week, Under the Comic Covers is very pleased to be talking about two titles that have always gone great together (see Episode 3 for why we feel that way). First up, we have Saga #36, wrapping up the series' sixth arc in spectacular fashion. After that, we have a return to form with Sex Criminals #15. We may have ripped this book a new one after issue #14, but this issue, wrapping up it's third arc, makes up for whatever grievances we may have had. As an added little bonus, we discuss the new Image Comics magazine, Image+, as Mr. Blahg's Top of the Stack pick. Included in this magazine is the first of twelve parts of The Walking Dead's Negan backstory, and so much more.

If you are on an Apple device, just skip ahead to whichever chapter you are interested in... otherwise, we list the times for each chapter below.
