2026/09/30

It’s card game battle time! The boys use decks of old Marvel trading cards from the 80’s & 90’s to play a battle game they made up and it gets bonkers! Like… weird, horny, nerdy bonkers.

539: Chris Claremont…We Talk about Him!

Zero Issues Comic Podcast ·

2026/09/23

Chris Claremont! He’s kind of THE GUY when it comes to the X-Men being one of the biggest names in comics for the past 40 years. How did he take what was once one of Marvel’s lowest selling books to the top of the comics industry? Where did he come from, and where has he gone, like some sort of Cottoneye Joe?This week, we shine the spotlight on one of comics’ most influential writers. What changed during his nearly-seventeen year run on the book? What plans did he have, and how

Hey, y’know who doesn’t have enough supervillains to populate their various galleries of rogues? DC Comics! So this week we come up with some all- and/or mostly-new characters, teams, and other villainous entities to plague the Justice League and/or their assorted Super Friends! Which villains would make up Batman’s own Sinister Six? How would Superman contend with twin villains (twillains!) who give him just the absolute worst luck? Maybe Wonder Woman just beats the hell out of

Kra-Ka-KOOM!It’s lightning round time! So that means the boys go through a number of short topics ‘rapid style’ (as rapid as they go). In this episode you may hear about…. How the American Ninja does in a blind ranking of ninjas. Who would we think could replace the big three in the JLA & Avengers (Hal’s into it).

Sometimes, stories go unfinished! Sometimes, the writer bounces off of a book, or is bounced off of a book, or, y’know, there is bouncing involved. And then another writer comes along and changes things, or the book simply goes unfinished.But. What if…? What if that didn’t happen, and the writer finished the story? That’s what we’re here to talk about this week! We cover Omega the Unknown, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Miracleman, the final Mirage run of Teenage

(And uh, unofficially on YouTube, of course.)In “SHAZAM! THE WORLD’S MIGHTIEST MORTAL: THE MIGHTY DR. ILLUSION”, Billy Batson first shamelessly shills for, and then Captain Marvel ruthlessly battles, the supposedly “mighty” Doctor Illusion! Holy Moly, just who is this not at

Sometimes, good guys go bad. Sure, it happens! But, but! Sometimes, bad guys? They go good! I know, crazy, right? It’s called a face turn, and this week, we’re talking about some of our favourite face turns in comics, as well as racking our brains trying to find villains who HAVEN’T done it before and pitching them, because, as it turns out, it’s more common than you think!

2026/05/20

Sometimes they aim big. A comic. A cartoon. A toyline. Video games. And sometimes that crashes like the Hindenburg. Failed Franchises! That’s what the boys are talking about this week. A slew of bad comics, mediocre toys and forgettable films. Some of them even had an ok aspect, but they just aimed too high. From Jim Lee’s Wildcats, to Warren Beatty’s Dick Tracy and a few other gems (or crystals) in the mix. Crystar the Crystal Warrior and Bucky O’ Hare anyone? And
