This week on the AIPT Comics Podcast, we’re diving headfirst into the most bonkers and brilliant crossover of the year: Archie vs. Minor Threats. We’re joined by the entire creative team — Timmy Heague, Scott Koblish, Jordan Blum, and Patton Oswalt to talk about how this unlikely mashup came to life, why Sabrina the Teenage Witch is the perfect chaos agent, and how the wholesomeness of Riverdale crashes into the gritty weirdness of Redport. From crypto bro Reggie to existential moments on a school bus, we explore what happens when you smash toys together, with meaning.
We also make our comic book picks of the week and recap the biggest stories in comics news.
