The Fast & Furious Avengers are back on the podcast.
This week on the AIPT Comics Podcast, we’re joined once again by New Avengers writer Sam Humphries, who returns to dig into the second story arc kicking off with issue #6. We talk about building a team of “bastards,” why Clea has quietly taken over the book, the horny horror of Guru Strange, and how the Killuminati twist classic Illuminati icons like Captain Britain and Medusa into Lord Britain and Rapunzel. Sam also gets into Bucky stepping aside for Natasha, the book’s Fast & Furious “family” vibes, and just how far he could take this series if he had unlimited runway.
Of course, that’s not all—before we dive into New Avengers mayhem, we break down the biggest comics news of the week, recap what we’ve been reading, and spotlight some of the most exciting new releases hitting shelves. All that, listener questions, and more on this week’s episode!
