Guide to Old Man Logan (New for Patrons!)
Whoa, two weeks in a row? It’s true, Crushers – I’m back with a new X-Men guide for all Patrons of CK! This character’s core collections have been tracked on another longstanding Crushing Comics guide, but I felt like shoe-horning him into another guide did him a disservice. There wasn’t room for all of his guest-appearances, or to discuss the distinct periods of his continuity – from his modern classic introduction to his satisfying end. Plus, per usual, I couldn’t find any other guide who explained things the right way – not even Wikipedia! Thus, I bring you my brand new Guide to Old Man Logan!
New solo X-Men guides are available exclusively to Patrons for a very long time before they go public! Become a Patron of CK to gain instant access.
It was fine to leave Old Man Logan as a brief footnote in my Guide to Wolverine – Logan when we just had his original Mark Millar story – which was the case for the first five years of my Wolverine Guide!
However, once Brian Bendis delivered Old Man Logan into the present day via Secret Wars (2015), I’ve never loved the idea of his modern adventures being shoved into the main Logan guide. With 13 collected arcs to his name plus equally as many team appearances, it’s been clear to me for several years that Old Man Logan needed a guide of his own – which was emphasized when Marvel spun off several other books featuring the “Wastelanders” of his potential alternate future!

Debating our Evergreen Horror Comics List – LIVE on Near Mint Condition
Are you ready to rumble? Today – October 31, I’m live with Near Mint Condition to host an Evergreen Horror Comics debate – that means the horror comic books should never go out of print!
Of course, I’m not a noted Horror fan, so what do I have to contribute to this debate? This time, I’m just your spooky host – think of me like an Elvira, or maybe a Crypt Keeper.
It’s the stream that is half serious recommendations, half a cut-throat game show of all of us trying to block other people’s recommendations so that all of our own make the list.
Guide to Lady Death by Brian Pulido (New for Patrons!)
I’m back, Crushers – and I’ve got a hellish new indie guide for Patrons of CK this Halloween! After months of adventures and misadventures too many to detail in this intro, a random YouTube stream appearance and a dig through my impressive stacks of back issues led me to dig into this much-needed guide. This indie femme fatale has over 30 years of confusing history across more than 60 in-continuity series plus dozens of pin-up issues and art books. No guide on the internet has ever explained her hellish continuity in perfect reading order… until now, thanks to my brand new Guide to Lady Death!
This guide is available exclusively to Patrons at this time!
If you have listened to any of my YouTube streams about comics, you know I love my 90s comics heroines – who were entirely synonymous with voluptuous cheesecake art. And, if there was one female anti-hero created in the 90s who was the utter epitome of the decade, it was Lady Death.
She has long been on my wishlist of potential hellish guides for the Halloween season. But, it wasn’t until appearing on a stream with Cliff On Comics a few weeks ago where I got into Lady Death quick drag live on camera that I was inspired to tackle her guide.
It was quite a task – no guide has taken longer to research in the 2020s except my Guide to the Green Lantern Corps!
