This week we cracked Batman: Holy Terror, and my goodness. – CASUAL WEDNESDAYS’ ELSEWEEK is back! It’s a bonus podcast MJ & I have been trying to kick out more frequently that covers all the Elseworlds specials DC has ever published.

We also talked about whether or not Batman goes “downtown” which is a euphemism for “oral sex on Catwoman” and had a good time with it. – The latest episode of CASUAL WEDNESDAYS is up!

Captain Rex finally made his appearance on the show and while it wasn’t the emotional reunion I think a lot of people were hoping for (these are soldiers, after all) it was a pretty killer episode that moved the central storyarc of the series along.

Music, television, film, comics, whatever. They’re giving revenue freely to the pirates, and the creators and publishers don’t see a cent.īuy the content you use.

Failing that, explain how libraries work.īut, most crucially, pirate comic sites do not “help” readers “find” new creators. Cheap (and good) comics often encourage return business. (Politely.) Maybe take them to a comic shop and direct them to some of DC’s Dollar Comics or Marvel’s True Believers or Image’s Image Firsts. I presume there are people who don’t think about things like production costs or or creator compensation or supporting small businesses like comic shops (they’re typically younger folks, and young ones are sometimes prone to Not Knowing Shit), so whenever one of these folk saunter into your life, take a minute and talk to them about how utterly self-serving piracy is.

The piracy conversation sometimes gets mired in the “whatabouts” concerning webcomics and what’s considered fair compensation for creators who largely post their work online for free. It might be a big reason why Ed Brubaker don’t write Batman no more. Makes sense why so many amazing creators go running to Image Comics or Kickstarter in the hopes that they might achieve their 6- or even 7-figure self-publishing dreams instead of doing work-for-hire at a corporate outfit. Some creators see the traffic on these dodgy pirate sites and feel like they’re missing out on a large chunk of cash. Comics is a business and it takes money to go along. If you know that and you still read your comics for free, you suck.
