Kitty Pryde & Wolverine #2 (1984) | Terror | 2

Last time, a young mutant followed her father to Japan… and vanished into shadow. Now the saga explodes in Issue #2 of the senses-shattering limited series from writer Chris Claremont and artist Al Milgrom, and nothing will ever be the same for Kitty Pryde or Wolverine again! Probably. Under the ruthless guidance of the enigmatic Ogun, Kitty is stripped of memory, identity, and mercy as she is reforged into a silent blade in human form! The bright, phasing X-Man we thought we knew is gone… replaced by a masked assassin who answers only to Ogun. Claremont cranks up the psychological tension! Milgrom drenches every page in shadow and danger! And Steeven and Ed break it all down; the ninja training, the emotional stakes, and the moral gray areas. Face front, comic fans, Episode Two of The Comic Book Super Show dives headlong into another intense chapter of this legendary 1984 mini-series. The claws are out. The mask is on. And the student has become the weapon. Don’t miss it! Kitty Pryde and Wolverine #2 was published by Marvel Comics in September of 1984. The Comic Book Super Show is a production of Steeven Orr Else Media. For more nerdy goodness like this episode, visit somanypodcasts.com [http://somanypodcasts.com/]. Got questions or comments?

Kitty Pryde & Wolverine #1 (1984) | Lies | 1

IN A WORLD… where comics cost 75 cents, spinner racks ruled the earth, and the X-Men were about to conquer pop culture… Two lifelong comic junkies fire up a brand-new podcast and crack open a Marvel time capsule. Welcome to Episode 1 of The Comic Book Super Show, as hosts Ed and Steeven kick off their very first season by diving headfirst into Kitty Pryde & Wolverine #1 from August of 1984, a moody, dialogue-heavy, slow-burn classic from Chris Claremont and Al Milgrom that helped define the golden age of 80s Marvel Comics. Before Wolverine pops his claws… Before ninjas strike… Before the body count rises… This issue dares to do something unthinkable: no costume, no combat, and barely a whiff of Wolverine at all. Instead, it’s all about Kitty Pryde She's heartbroken, homesick, and caught in a globe-spanning web of crime, family betrayal, and international intrigue that stretches from suburban Illinois to the shadowy streets of Japan. Along the way, Ed and Steeven relive what it was like to read this comic off the rack in the mid-80s, unpack why this era of Marvel still hits so hard, and explore how this miniseries redefined Kitty, Logan, and the very idea of what an X-Men story could be. There’s nostalgia. There’s history. There’s Claremontian wordiness. There’s spinner racks, Secret Wars, golden ages, and the birth of one of comics’ most enduring relationships. This is not just where the story begins. It’s where The Comic Book Super Show is born. Kitty Pryde and Wolverine #1 was published by Marvel Comics in August of 1984. The Comic Book Super Show is a production of Steeven Orr Else Media. For more nerdy goodness like this episode, visit somanypodcasts.com [http://somanypodcasts.com/]. Got questions or comments?
