OM DENNE PODCAST 🔗
Understanding Comics is a deep-dive podcast for anyone who loves comic books but wants more than surface-level takes.
Each episode explores the characters, history, and lore that shape comics across publishers, eras, and mediums. From iconic heroes and legendary villains to forgotten storylines, major creative shifts, and the real-world forces that shaped the page, this show is about why comics matter and how they became what they are today.
Whether we’re breaking down a single character’s evolution, unpacking a major storyline, or tracing how decades of continuity collide and contradict, Understanding Comics treats comics as living mythology. We focus on narrative, themes, lore, and context—connecting dots between stories, creators, and cultural moments.
