This week on the AIPT Comics Podcast, we’re joined by Scott Snyder for one of our favorite conversations of the year. We dive deep into Absolute Batman, the newly announced animated series, why he believes monthly comics need to embrace what makes the medium unique, and the creative philosophy driving one of comics’ biggest successes. It’s a candid, wide-ranging discussion on storytelling, the future of superhero comics, and why taking big swings matters more than ever.
We also break down the biggest comics news of the week, share our favorite new releases, pick our most jaw-dropping KAPOW moments, preview next week’s can’t-miss books, and close things out with another round of Judging by the Cover Jr.
You can stream the AIPT Comics podcast below or find it on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, or wherever you get your podcasts.
