Possum In Peril Weekly Comics Talk
Possum in Peril ep 5!
Possum and Peril are back from the trenches of the Daniel Warren Johnson signing at the store [editor’s note: he’s so nice] to bring you this week’s very exciting episode!
This week we talk about slow starts and desolation in Phantom Road; the contrasting coexistence of silly and grisly horror in I Hate This Place; Asian diasporas, what gets lost in the translation of generations and homelands, ghosts across cultures, young adult fiction, and so much more in Dead Boy Detectives (2023); reconnection, repair, and healing as a collaborative act in Doom Patrol: Brick By Brick; and updates on slipping Sinister into the water supply to make all the frickin’ Krakoans gay, as well as the homos who were already here, across the X-books.
Starring:
-Dead Boy Detectives #2-3
-Doom Patrol Volume 1: Brick By Brick
-I Hate This Place #6
-Phantom Road #1
-Sins Of Sinister: Immoral X-Men #1
-Captain Britain: Betsy Braddock #1
-X-Force #38
Featuring cameos from The Good Asian, Erika Price’s webcomic Disorder, Hallow’s Eve #1, Sweet Tooth, Roughneck, and more!
Special thanks to Bee Nanase Barbera for sharing their experiences and insights with me. My reading of Dead Boy Detectives and the conversation in this episode were greatly shaped by what I’ve learned from them over the years.
