episode I’m DONE Buying Weekly Comics… Here’s Why cover

Beskrivelse

I finally canceled my weekly comic pull list. Not because I hate comics… But because I LOVE comics. Modern comics just don’t hit the same anymore. The stories, the characters, the endless reboots, the events, the FOMO marketing… it started feeling more like obligation than passion. Meanwhile I’ve got stacks of unread omnibuses full of the stuff I actually grew up loving: 90s X-Men, Punisher, Ghost Rider, Spawn, Batman, Spider-Man, Age of Apocalypse and all the insane comic book chaos that made this hobby fun in the first place. This video is about comic collecting burnout, nostalgia, modern comic problems, and why older fans are walking away from weekly books. If you grew up loving late 80s and 90s comics… this one’s probably gonna hit home. Appreciate you watching and riding with the Hero Bishop Show.

Scalpers Are The Worst!! They Ruined Action Figure AND Statue Collecting

What’s up y’all, today we are talking about how scalpers completely ruined action figures AND high-end statues like Iron Studios. Empty shelves, bot-sniped pre-orders, insane markups on $25 figures and $300+ statues — it’s sucking the joy out of nerd collecting. Real talk, receipts, comedy breaks, and me losing my mind a little in this unfiltered rant.

episode 3 MORE Punisher Comics Every Fan Should Read cover

3 MORE Punisher Comics Every Fan Should Read

After my last Punisher recommendations video, a lot of you asked for more reading suggestions. So I went back into the collection and pulled out three Punisher books that deserve more attention. Today we’re looking at the classic 1986 Punisher miniseries, the underrated graphic novel Intruder, and the wild Marvel/DC crossover Deadly Knights.  If you’re looking to dive deeper into Frank Castle’s world, these are great books to add to your reading list. Which Punisher comic would you recommend to a new reader?  For press, partnerships, or business contact: nerdxcore83@gmail.com (Hero Bishop Social Media) Instgram - https://www.instagram.com/herobishopshow/ Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@herobishopshow (Gutz Social Media) Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/gutztattoos/ (Cameo) https://www.cameo.com/herobishopshow For Press or other contact info email me nerdxcore83@gmail.com Famcast Media Links Instgram: https://www.instagram.com/famcastmedia/  Twitter/X: https://x.com/Famcastmedia Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@famcastmediapodcastnetwork Copyright 2021

The Different Types Of Collectors… And Why We’re All Insane

Collecting used to be simple. Now the hobby has evolved into complete insanity.  In this episode of the Hero Bishop Show, we break down the different types of collectors in nerd culture, from high-end statue elitists and Marvel Legends addicts to anime statue “art experts,” vintage toy historians, and the super serious dudes trying to convince everyone their toys are investment assets. We also talk about the REAL collectors… the people who only buy something when it actually means something to them. If you collect comics, statues, action figures, Hot Toys, Marvel Legends, anime figures, or vintage toys… you’re probably in this video somewhere. And honestly? We all got issues.

episode SPAWN (1997) WAS A DISASTER… AND HERE’S HOW IT HAPPENED cover

SPAWN (1997) WAS A DISASTER… AND HERE’S HOW IT HAPPENED

Spawn (1997) should have changed comic book movies forever… instead it became one of the biggest missed opportunities in superhero film history. In this episode of the Hero Bishop Show, we break down exactly what went wrong with the Spawn movie, from the terrible CGI and confused tone to the behind-the-scenes chaos that doomed the film from the start. We also dive into: * Why John Leguizamo as Clown was the BEST part of the movie * How practical effects outshined the CGI * Why the studio sanitized Spawn’s darker horror elements * How this movie had the SAME problem as Jared Leto’s Joker in Suicide Squad * And why Spawn disappeared from theaters for decades after this Featuring breakdowns of the original Spawn comics by Todd McFarlane, the HBO animated series, and the tragic wasted potential of Michael Jai White as Spawn. This isn’t just a bad movie review… this is comic book movie history. Appreciate you watching and riding with the Hero Bishop Show.
