  • The Pat Chat 042: Good Stories and Problematic People
    Oct 29 2024

    In this week's Pat Chat: Astonishing X-Men artist Phillip Sevy and writer Christie Porter to talk about Astonishing X-Men...and if its still possible to enjoy it (and other stories of its ilk). We talk about some of the story, the brilliant art by the late John Cassaday, and how the story affected us all as it came out.

    We talk at length about problematic creators and how to approach their work in, and how we cope with these stories being tainted by the actions of some creators.

    Plus: we talk a bit about Phillip's relaunching of Astonishing X-Men as an Infinity Comic in Marvel Unlimited. We then talk about Christie's cosplay work, where Pat suggests a possible new cosplay for her.
