Podcast Episode 44: Witchblade and Wytches

Double Image

Image Comics has been the breakout publisher of the last ten or so years when it comes to non-superhero comics. No major publisher is printing as many new concepts and interesting stories these days. Nick and Brock sometimes have trouble finding non-Image books to review for this comic book podcast. So, as an act of pure childish rebellion, they go swimming in the putrid waters of 1990’s Image to dig up something that is everything the modern day Image is not. In the Shooting Gallery of Hate this week is the cheesecake work, Witchblade.

The brain bleach of this week is a Scott Snyder work, Wytches. Similar in name, but thankfully not similar in story or art . . . or quality . . . or god-damn anything. It’s only fair to toss in a new Image book for some sort of comparison.

You, faithful podcast listener, will get all of this if you manage to get through another Star Wars intro and some comic book movie director talk where Nick does his best to be 100% wrong about everything he says.

As a quick aside, finding a Witchblade image that wouldn’t be embarrassing to post on the site was no simple task.
