They say the fabled history of American comic books is divided into four distinct ages — the Golden Age, the Silver Age, the Bronze Age, and the Modern Age. In this weekly podcast, screenwriters Chris Derrick (STAR TREK: PICARD) and Steven Bagatourian (AMERICAN GUN) discuss their favorite books, runs, and creators (mostly) from the Bronze Age.
COMICS ROT YOUR BRAIN! invites you to take a deep dive into ‘80s comics (with a few notable exceptions). The podcast explores your hosts’ deep passion for and quirky takes on pivotal or semi-obscure comic series from their youth — groundbreaking and once-lauded titles that laid the foundation for their lifelong love affairs with the graphic storytelling medium. Tune in each week to hear Steven and Chris discuss extraordinary comic books that you forgot about or ones that you never knew existed.
…THRILLER, GRIMJACK, NEXUS, CONCRETE, MR. MONSTER, SCOUT, STRAY TOASTERS, and so many others — these comics and their creators blazed radical new trails that changed the course of comics forever but are often left out of today’s discourse.
COMICS ROT YOUR BRAIN! exists to celebrate and reckon with the extraordinary legacy of 1980s American comics — all of it.
In the debut episode (Zero Episode), the guys talk about why the hell they’re actually doing this! Don’t leave them alone in their fandom and fanaticism. Join in on all the ensuing mayhem!
