The Man Without Fear is riding a new wave of popularity thanks to having a hit Netflix show under his belt, so Mike & Greg turn their heightened comic senses on one of, if not the, seminal story about Matt Murdock: Frank Miller & David Mazzucchelli’s ‘Born Again’. From singles to digital to trade paperback to Artist Edition, this story is a comic booking master class no matter the format you experience it in. Process is dissected, context is given, praise is assigned and heaped, and hearts are broken when one host describes the Artist Edition to the other. But the Hornhead talk doesn’t end there! The Netflix show gets its due! Not a complete love fest, but pretty close! Listen on to find out the boys’ theories on Madame Gao, what we could look forward to in Seasons 2 & 3, how seeing the show affects reading the comic, which Miller comics make the Holy Trinity of his bibliography (and why), who hears who in their head for which character, why ‘Born Again’-type stories rarely work as well with other characters, and more.
