We continue our journeys through the worlds of One Piece and Death Note. We contemplate the morality of murder and the practicality of holding a sword in your mouth. You know, deep philosophical stuff.

Episode 1: Welcome to Make Mine Manga!

2025/10/13

I’d like to say we workshopped a better title than this, but we clearly didn’t.John, Aldo, and Stephen embark on a new journey into the world of manga! This week: we trial three chapters of four different stories to get a feel for the landscape, and we select two to stick with for an additional seven chapters apiece. The readings are: One Piece Death Note Cipher Academy Dragon Ball

God Raptured My Brain - FINALE

2025/09/29

All good things…In light of the highly disappointing (and frankly cowardly) behavior of Marvel’s parent company Disney in the face of government pressure, we’re… done? After this episode, no more Marvel comics. We’ll be back next month, twice monthly reviewing manga instead. But before we go, we’ve got one last round of ranking, including the ragtag Legion of Monsters and the… anticapitalist(?) Iron Man(?!?). What a way to end!

The Brute that Shouted Love at the Center of Aldo

2025/09/15

Well, the boys must be feeling angry. I’m sure there’s no reason identifiable in, say, literally any current events, so… it’s the Hulk this week! Three different brief Hulk stories, including the marriage of Bruce Banner, as well as the Hulk’s first true love!…no, we certainly are still very angry, I’m sure.

The Superhuman Registration Podcast celebrates back to school season with another visit to Strange Academy, followed by a field trip to Avengers Academy. Magic! Mayhem! Teen drama and angst! The stuff dreams are made of.I mean, the kind of dreams where you aren’t wearing pants and forgot to study for the test today, but still.

Assistant TO THE Omniversal Menace

The Age of Apocalypse has ended, and we’ve turned our sights away from anything mutant related to focus instead on the new Ultimate universe (well, new-ish) and the Donny Cates run on Thor. After spending so much time with Marvel’s mutants, will we have anything to talk about now that we’ve moved on?(Hint: look at the episode length.)

Stay Home and Be Sad For Free

2025/07/14

Boy, we’ve been wandering through this dark alternate universe for what feels like months now. Will we ever find our way through this endless Age of Apocalypse?Well, almost. The conclusion will be next time, but for this week we have to tackle X-Man and Amazing X-Men. And we will talk about them… after a few detours about professional wrestling, how to improve the Marvel Unlimited app, and which special effects movies from twenty years ago still hold up.

2025/06/30

Our tour of the Age of Apocalypse continues! This time, we look through the mirror darkly at Factor X, X-Calibre, and Generation Next. As we do, we ask ourselves the question: is this all TOO dark?But only briefly, cuz we still weirdly seems to be having a good time of things.

New Whitest Thing I’ve Done

Make Mine Manga! ·

2025/06/16

Almost since the beginning of this podcast, Stephen has looked for a way to have the boys review the classic 90s event comic, the Age of Apocalypse. Finally, we decided to rip the Band-Aid off and just dive in. We start this week with Legionquest, and we’ll make our way through one book at a time over the course of the next several weeks.

Fill-In: Wizard’s 100 Greatest Villains

Make Mine Manga! ·

2025/06/02

Since John’s away, Stephen decided to break out an old issue of Wizard magazine - that giant of pop-culture reporting back in the early 2000s - to spark a conversation with Aldo over who the best villains of all time are. How well do these takes from 2006 age?

King, Kang, Mojo

2025/05/19

No, it isn’t a crossover between malefic monkeys King Kong and Mojo Jojo. Rather, we’re exploring some curious side stories featuring everyone’s favorite villains. Kang! Kingpin! Mojo!…well, Stephen likes Mojo.

What You Love Sucks

Two thirds of our little group have never played Marvel Rivals. Will the comic adaptation (tie-in? advertisement?) convince them to join the bandwagon? We’ll find out right after we check in with where we left the Runaways last time in Miami.Look, there’s no real theme connecting these two books. Not everything has to be connected. Life is chaotic. Let that be fun!

That’s Barely a Name

The Marvel Mangaverse is one of the weirder artifacts of early-2000s comicsdom. Is it a back-issue bizarrerie, or a buried gem?Also, Iron Fist was one of the stars of the post-Civil War Marvel universe. How does this Fraction/Brubaker hold up today?

It’s the joke that won’t die! When Medusa appears in the replacement roster for the FF, of COURSE we see it as an opportunity to dunk on our favorite weird superhero name.Also… Star Wars! You know Star Wars, right? But do you know Star Wars comics? Even if they are just the movie again? It’s the manga adaptation of Return of the Jedi on the Superhuman Registration Podcast!

Fill-In: MCU Top (and Bottom) Five

Make Mine Manga! ·

2025/03/17

With the others out of commission, Stephen takes the bold stand of declaring that some of the MCU films aren’t very good, while others are pretty great. Yes, we’re still talking about this in 2025. Come for the bad takes, stay for the regrettable takes.

Nunchucks from Betsy Ross’s Femurs

2025/03/03

Well, none of us are feeling particularly patriotic at the moment. Luckily, neither is Cap, which makes Ta-Nehesi Coates’s “Captain of Nothing” an appropriate read for the moment.”Cosmic Cooties,” featuring both Moon Girl AND Devil Dinosaur, is less timely but still satisfying. Join us for the evening, won’t you?

Way back in 2014, the Superior Fors of Spider-Man took the world by storm.[checks notes] Excuse me… I’m reading here that they got up to a lot of mischief and… peed themselves a lot. [clears throat] Awkward. Anyway, how do their adventures hold up in 2025? Let’s sit down and give it a read.

We Are Legion, We Are Dumb

2025/01/13

We continue to slowly make our way through a pair of critically-acclaimed series: The Mighty Thor and The Immortal Hulk. Both arcs today deal with themes of superheroic theology, which excites the heck out of Stephen. But are the stories any good? Let’s rank them and see!
