Greetings, true believers!!! The cultural dominance of Marvel Comics has made Stan Lee a beloved American icon, but his creative partner through Marvel's formative years, illustrator/writer Jack Kirby, who co-created the Hulk, the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, and whose ambitious storytelling and energetic artwork came to define the superhero comic for generations. Comic book writer Ted Anderson (Moth Whisperer, Orphan Age, Adventure Time, My Little Pony) joins us to talk to us about everything from the impossibility of artistic credit being distributed fairly, to Judaism underlying the medium of superhero comics, to why it's always good to punch Nazis.
