AIPT Comics Podcast Episode 339: SDCC recap & comic comebacks!

Chris and Dave recap the week in comic book news as well as the biggest reveals at San Diego Comic-Con 2025!

San Diego Comic-Con 2025 may be wrapping up today, but the reveals, surprises, and sneak peeks are still echoing across the multiverse, and we’re breaking it all down! This week on the AIPT Comics Podcast, we’re recapping the biggest moments from SDCC: from jaw-dropping trailers and panel reveals to surprise creator announcements and massive crossover teases.

But that’s not all, 2025 is shaping up to be the year of the comeback. We’re diving into the return of beloved properties like Buffy, Angel, Swat Kats, and Supernatural, as well as a bold new era of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with Gene Luen Yang and Freddie E. Williams II. Plus: Vault’s surprise retailer giveaway, Barbaric‘s brutal one-shot, a terrifying new tech-horror anthology from Mad Cave, and Rob Liefeld’s Youngblood flexing its way back into the spotlight.

All that, plus our favorite comics of the week, wild industry rumors, and a peek at what’s next as the fall comics season begins to heat up!
