I don't know if you've heard, but there's a new prestige cop drama on HBO. It's called Lanterns, and instead of guns, the cops have rings. Well, at least one of them does. As a fan of the Green Lantern characters, your trusty host Devin R Bruce was keen to talk about it. So he enlisted his pal Juliet to be the John Stewart to his Hal Jordan, and the two of them started Brownest Day, Greyest Night: A Lanterns Podcast. This episode's a little late because someone needed to roll over to the next month

2026/02/28

This episode of Scotch & Comics made its host an offer he couldn't refuse. Maybe he should have, because this one almost goes entirely off the rails. Powered by multiple Godfather cocktails, Devin R Bruce talks about: Animal Man by Jamie Delano, Steve Pugh, Tatjana Wood, and more; The Muppet Show comics by Roger Langridge, The Mighty Thor by Walt Simonson, and a secret fourth comic book whose analysis will never see the light of day. (For the record: it was The Invisibles, a book that is

What's a guy to do when he's ready to drink whisky & record a podcast and a minor calamity strikes? Well, if he's me (Devin R Bruce), he drinks whisky & records a podcast. And reads some comics, and learns a little about fluid volume measurement. (Very little.) So join me as I discuss a variety of comics: Prince of Cats, The Jack Kirby Omnibus Vol. 2 (Featuring Super Powers), We're Taking Everyone Down With Us, What If? Classic, and Absolute Martian Manhunter. On an episode featuring Shakespeare,

2023 was kind of a rough year around the opulent Scotch & Comics estate, but we’re trying to enter 2024 at a different angle. And thanks to That Boutique-y Whisky Company’s Whisky Advent Calendar, we’ve come prepared. Armed with a small stack of books and fistfuls of tiny whisky bottles, your slightly-dimmed-but-not-completely-snuffed-out host Devin R Bruce takes you on a tour of various of tastes, sights, and emotions.

After a slightly extended intro extolling the virtues of Hedonism and Record Store Day, your host Devin R Bruce comes in with a platter of stories, featuring The Comic Book Story of Beer, Rogues, Creepy, and Elephantmen. Will this episode be defeated by hedonism, hubris, or (GASP) the dreaded hiccups? Only one way to find out! Additional Notes: Hedonism is a blended Scotch whisky from Compass Box, who produces a variety of other delicious whiskies as well. I neglected to mention the publisher for

Welcome back to Scotch & Comics! It's me, Devin R Bruce, coming to you with the first episode in...over two years? Really? It feels like shorter than that. So join me as I kick the tires and take this old podcast out for a spin. In this episode I talk about a lot of different comic books, including: Jonah Hex: Riders of the Worm and Such from DC/Vertigo; Goodnight Paradise from TKO Studios; We Stand On Guard from Image; Dork from Dark Horse; Hex Wives from DC/Vertigo; and Three Fingers from Top

2016/12/28

If I don't post a show on Robbie Burns Day then I feel like I'm probably doing something wrong. Also: hello! It's 2017 and I'm still occasionally rambling on about comic books while walking arm and arm with John Barleycorn. This episode John is rather silent but I talk about Astro City, The Anchor, Deathlok, and The Punisher MAX. It's a kind of a short episode but don't worry: the next one is going to be extra-long to make up for it. Just you wait. Full show notes available on the website!

I've tried to write the show notes for this episode five or six times now and it always just comes down to me trying to not talk about how it's been a while. So I figure the less said the better! Long story short: if you want to hear your intrepid host Devin R Bruce talk about awesome independent comic books like Polly & The Pirates, Bitch Planet, The Hypernaturals, and Injection, then this is the episode for you! Also if you are interested in the fantastic comics in Showcase Presents Metamorpho and

2015/10/28

This episode of Scotch & Comics is trying something a little bit different. This episode isn't the result of a single evening's "hard work" but rather a handful of books spread out over a few days, then stitched back together. (It's fun to spend an entire evening sipping whisky and reading comic books, but sometimes it can be difficult to find five consecutive hours to set aside for that Herculean task.)In this patchwork of an episode your intrepid host Devin R Bruce takes a tour of a wide variety

A little while ago I was talking with the ladies from the Boozy Boob Tube podcast, and I said that since I have a podcast where I drink and talk about comics and they have a podcast where they drink and talk about television, we should figure out some kind of awesome crossover. They agreed that it would be a good idea and a fun time, we just needed to come up with a show that I hadn't seen that was based on a comic book that they hadn't seen. Then, iZombie happened.

Gather around, podcast listeners, as I tell the tale of Episode 22 of the Scotch & Comics podcast, also known as...The Lost Episode! Abandoned shortly after it was recorded because of its strange aural qualities, it was thought that this episode would never see the light of day, but your intrepid host Devin R. Bruce was not going to let it go that easily. After searching the world for hints about the episode's location, he tracked it down in Marrakesh. After escaping an underground city

Today may be "his special day" but that doesn't mean that your intrepid host hasn't thought of you listeners! Yes, on this very special thirty-fifth birthday episode, host Devin R Bruce has crafted an audio grab bag that is bursting at the seams with comics goodness! Open up and find treats featuring comics from such luminary creators as (in alphabetical order): Brian Azzarello, Richard Corben, Garth Ennis, Jae Lee, Sean McKeever, Peter Milligan, Sean Phillips, Eric Powell, and John Severin.

It may have been six months since the last episode of Scotch & Comics but that doesn't mean that your host has gotten rusty. Or even gotten himself a Rusty Nail. (Ouch. I cut myself on that pun.) But in this special Robbie Burns Day episode, your host Devin R Bruce delivers an ode to comics. Specifically the comics Stormwatch, FF, Plastic Man, and Pretty Deadly. It's a guid a body! (Note: there is some cursing in the musical interludes. If that is concerning to you.)

It's been a while again since the last episode but now Scotch & Comics is officially back from vacation! Your intrepid host was gone from the "studio" ("apartment") for the entire month of June; it was very fun and also EXTREMELY busy, and there was only one opportunity to record a podcast. And it was while onboard the Marine Atlantic Ferry from Newfoundland to Nova Scotia! And even MORE exciting, the lovely and talented Kim Stolz (who you may also recognize from The Listmakers Podcast) was on the

Will your intrepid host manage to survive the onslaught of his towering pile of unread comics? With the help of his spirit guide, Just Bill, how can he fail? From Chew to Fantastic Four to Über to Constantine to yes, even The Amazing Spider-Man, not even nine months of unread comics can stop the Scotch
