  Comic Book Bears Podcast Issue #343: The Legion of Pumpkin Spice Bears

  Sep 29, 20262h 9m

  As we transition from summer to fall, the CBB boys (Caleb, Billy Z and Steve) are back with another dose of comic book discussion for your earbuds! After shorter than usual opening ramblings, we get right into the roundtable. On this ep we chat about the new Legion of Super-Heroes reboot from DC Comics by the team of Joshua Williamson and Hayden Sherman (complete with a huge faux pas thanks to a Billy Z brain fart), a double dose of Hulkish goodness with Planet She-Hulk and the Spider-Man/Hulk: Fire and Brimstone mini-series co-written by Kevin Smith (and both from Marvel, natch!), the monster themed Dingoliath (Bad Idea), Mirion Malle 's graphic novel Beware Her Fury (Drawn & Quarterly) and the latest addition to the Hellboy/BPRD canon with Frankenstein: New World (Dark Horse) - all this plus our Geek Gets and Woofs of the Week!

  Episode #341

  Comic Book Bears Podcast Issue #341: Spider-Man: Brand New Day

  Aug 30, 20262h 17m

  On our first Comic Book Bears livestream for August 2026, the CBB boys (Steve, Caleb and Billy Z) spoke about Spider-Man: Brand New Day soon after it was released to cinemas. Here we are at the end of the month and it is still dominating the global box office, and now that livestream is here in audio form! The movie is the 38th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the fourth film in the MCU Spider-Man film series. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, Spider-Man: Brand New Day stars Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man alongside Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Florence Pugh, Marisa Tomei, and Mark Ruffalo with Sadie Sink as a major Marvel Comics character making her MCU debut. In the film, Peter Parker is on his own and dedicated to protecting New York City as Spider-Man, just as personal struggles and an evolutionary development to his superpowers complicate matters while contending with a new threat. As is the tradition when we have a film-based episode, we offer up what we thought of the movie (be forewarned, in a very spoileriffic manner) and then we each make a suggestion regarding a collected edition featuring characters from the film. After that we even get in a little bit of roundtable time to talk about some recent comics - in this case, Terminal #1 by Robert Kirkman, Joe Casey and Adam Kubert (Image Comics), the final installment of Heartstopper by Alice Oseman (Graphix) and the latest installments of Silence (#5: Dream and #6: Nightmare), the queer themed wordless project from Łukasz Majcher's Moom Comics! So hit play for all this and more!

  Episode #339

  Comic Book Bears Podcast Issue #339: Supergirl and Pride

  Jul 7, 20262h 10m

  The Comic Book Bears Podcast returns to the movies in this new episode, and this time it is for the Maiden of Steel! Supergirl was recently released on June 26th with Milly Alcock starring in the title role of Superman's cousin, Kara Zor-El. Directed by Craig Gillespie and written by Ana Nogueira, it is the second film set in the DC Universe (DCU) following last year's Superman. The film also stars Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley, David Corenswet returning as Superman, and Jason Momoa as fan favorite character Lobo! In the film, Kara embarks on a journey across the galaxy to hunt down an adversary who has harmed her pet dog Krypto in a story based in part on the 2021 Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic miniseries by writer Tom King and artist Bilquis Evely. Steve, Caleb and Billy Z relay what they thought of the film (spoilers included) and also discuss some of the "fandom" reaction to it. And instead of our regular round table, as we just said farewell to Pride month the CBB boys offer up LGBTQIA+ themed comics graphic novels they feel should be on alphabet mafia bookshelves. And what are those works? Just hit play to find out!

  Episode #338

  Comic Book Bears Podcast Issue #338: The Superman Wars with William Bernhardt

  Jun 30, 20261h 6m

  When Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster contracted with National Periodical Publications to publish their creation Superman in 1938, it was not only the beginning of the Man of Steel's legacy as one of the most important fictional characters ever created, it also was the start of Jerry's decades long battle over control of the character and for fair compensation and credit. This is all covered in The Superman Wars, the new book by William Bernhardt! William is an attorney, an author of over 60 books and a past Jeopardy champion (!) and in this painstakingly researched book, he takes us through the tale of Siegel's search for his own claim to truth, justice and the American way in the face of corporate swindlers, gangsters, pornographers, blackballing, crooked lawyers, and broken promises. CBB hosts Billy Z and Steve are on hand to interview William so hit play to hear all about this fascinating story and cautionary tale!
