SPECIAL GUEST
(It me!)
Special treat today as part one of a two-part Podcast that I did to kick off Matt Rosenberg’s excellent new IDEAS DON’T BLEED podcast. We talked about BLACK CLOAK and THE CULL — and comics business and worldbuilding and substack and time zones for some reason? It was fun and I think you’ll enjoy it.
Huge thanks to Matt for having me on and also — this was hosted by the delightful Ethan and Griffin who you may know better as the “Supple Boiz” from Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman’s Substack KLC Press. They are a delight. Thanks, guys.
You can listen to part 1 here:
While I have you, I’m sure a bunch of you saw late last week that this cover for CAPTAIN MARVEL #44 dropped — and thus we now know both the team Carol is taking with her on her “horror/space adventure” — and also, who the big bads will be. Below is the cover by Juan Frigeri and the solicit text in case you missed it:
SOLICIT:
"REVENGE OF THE BROOD" PART 2! Carol Danvers returns to space – and to the X-Men?! A mysterious degraded message from Rogue has arrived at the same time that Carol's emergency beacon begins screaming with cries from Binary... and that cannot possibly be a coincidence. Carol assembles a team of allies, including Polaris, Gambit, Wolverine, and Psylocke, bent on rescue, but what they find instead is a dangerous old enemy bent on revenge!!
And this whole team — Captain Marvel, Spider-Woman, Hazmat, Polaris, Wolverine, Gambit, and Psylocke is together for the full arc — CAPTAIN MARVEL #43 - #49. (plus expect some appearances by Binary and Rogue and MAYBE some other guests - wink wink, nudge nudge).
AND there’s a gorgeous Peach Momoko Variant Cover for CM #44 too:
AND. Because I love you an extra lot, here’s a quick sneak peek at Sergio Davila’s incredible take on our gorgeous team:
Note: Unfortunately Rhodey is only in issue #43 (and maybe issue #49 - we’ll see)
And Psylocke! This is really my first time getting to write Kwannon and
I. AM. EXCITE.
I hope I don’t fuck it up!
Okay, in closing, here’s some cats. Because, I don’t know, always end with cats?

Honored to have you as our first (and 2nd, and 3rd, and 4th) guest!!!!
I love the team u assembled! My only wish is that Gabby was tagging along with Laura. I would love to see you write their banter. I feel like you would nail it.
