Hines In A Half-Shell: TMNT #11
mercredi 12 novembre 2025 • Duration 58:13
EPISODE 336 - We are at issue 11 of the original run of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Comics. April and the gang are recovering in a New England farm. April writes in a diary, and we see through her eyes how each of the other characters recovers from the crushing defeat they had at the hands of Shredder last issue. It's a contemplative, emotional and dare we say it --- extremely patient and grown-up issue! The comic that started at least partly as a laugh and a lark has matured into a full world with feelings and integrity! We love this issue!
In a way, this is the end of the first era of these comics. From this point on, it's rare that both creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird would be involved at the same time making the comics. There are some exceptions (We will cover the trilogy they did the next year in our next episode). But this is the end of their initial run.
We forgo Loose Screws this episode to instead discuss a "Relevant Screw." We discuss the most successful of the Turtle rip-off comics: Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters. is it good? Well, no. But there's something kinda fun amidst the mess!

Hines In A Half-Shell: TMNT #2
mercredi 30 juillet 2025 • Duration 57:07
We're on to issue #2 of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! After issue one is a surprise hit, the creators scramble to come up with a second issue. We get a not-quite-as-good but still-pretty-good story! We meet April and a new villain Baxter Stockman. We learn that Donatello is tech savvy and that Splinter has an extensive book collection!
We also go over a survey Kevin ran to see just how much people know about the Turtles, even if they are not especially big fans!
And a brief loose screw segment where we chat about the Superman and FF movie. We plan to go over it even more in our sop-scriber episode next week!

Catwoman #6-9: Disguises
Season 12 · Episode 27
mercredi 5 juillet 2023 • Duration 01:03:34
The Milksops actually talk about Catwoman comics as they get into the second arc of the regular monthly Brubaker-penned series. It's called "Disguises" and it's about Selina protecting Holly, after the latter uncovers a ring of dirty Gotham cops. Corruption? In Gotham City? Unheard of, we know. We got Slam Bradley back, we got new good Gotham cops in addition to all the lousy ones and we have Selina / Catwoman back in full action. We also go over Secret Invastion and (for some reason) David Cronenberg movies.

The Milksops discuss two Spider-Man related events: 1) the passing of John Romita Sr., one of the best and most important Marvel artists in the company's history, (he took over drawing Spidey after co-creator Steve Ditko left), and 2) the recently released "Across The Spider-Verse," a worthy and terrific sequel in the Miles Morales animated franchise.

One-Shot: Comic Shop Shelf Appeal with Casey Bruce
Season 12 · Episode 24
mercredi 14 juin 2023 • Duration 01:05:32
In this "one shot" episode (a name I just made up where we examine a topic separate from our current season) we take a break from Catwoman to discuss the topic of "shelf appeal." This means roughly the way comics look on the shelves of comic shops. We bring on former guest Casey Bruce, co-owner of Danger Room comics in Olympia, Washington to talk about the challenges facing shop owners when it comes to making their product look appealing to customers. There's packaging, what editions are available, the impact of movies and television shows, how popular the characters are, and how long the title has been running. Kevin has a lot of hot takes in this ep! Back to Catwoman next week! __

Selina's Big Score
Season 12 · Episode 23
mercredi 7 juin 2023 • Duration 01:15:09
We cover one of the all-time great comic book stories: Selina's Big Score. Written and drawn by Darwyn Cooke, this story is a masterpiece of crime fiction, active storytelling, redefining a classic character all with some of the prettiest art you could hope to see. There's echoes of crime fiction author Richard Stark in here (there's a character named after him), but also reminders of classic 1980s superhero crime stories by Frank Miller, Klaus Janson and David Mazzuchelli. Truly a pleasure to read. Also Will learns that Kevin loves Zelda video games! Email us at screwitcomics@gmail.com

Trail of The Catwoman
Season 12 · Episode 22
mercredi 31 mai 2023 • Duration 01:07:11
We begin our coverage of the Ed Brubaker / Darwyn Cooke era of Catwoman comics. We start with Trail of the Catwoman - written by Brubaker, drawn by Cooke.. Originally published in 2001 as a backup feature in Detective Comics, it's now collected with the solo Catwoman series that Brubaker and Cooke worked on. The plot of the story is that hard boiled private eye Slam Bradley (himself an actual golden age character from the pre-Batman Detective Comics) as he tries to determine if Selina Kyle is really dead (she is not). But the effect of the story is to re-purpose Catwoman as a crime noir action star. It's a beautiful, gripping, fun story - a must read! Also Will talks for 20 minute about Welcome Back Kotter and the streaming service Tubi and for that we are truly sorry!

Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Discussion
Season 12 · Episode 21
mercredi 24 mai 2023 • Duration 01:14:46
The Milksops discuss the third installment in the MCU Guardians of the Galaxy franchise. Kevin liked it more than Will, but Will admits that maybe he's just going through MCU fatigue, and he's not being fair. Both of us love that James Gunn got to finish this trilogy, and appreciate that he's kept the same tone and voice throughout the series. We talk about the challenge of balancing so many characters and places, and which characters have changed the most since the first movie in 2014. In our world-famous "Loose Screws" segment, Will talks about JM DeMatteis' self-produced Spellbound Comics. We also answer some mail, which include more discussion of who should be on the comics Mount Rushmore?
