Our Love, Hate Relationship with Comic Culture
Comics raised us. Then they tested us.
Our Love/Hate Relationship with Comic Culture is a weekly, no-holds-barred conversation about Marvel, DC, and the ever-expanding comic universe—through the eyes of people who grew up living the culture, not just consuming it.
Hosted by legendary hip-hop producer Pete Rock, radio and content producer Tat Wza, and hip-hop recording artist Mickey Factz, the show dives into the wins, the misses, and the moments that spark debate. From the pages to the screen, from X-Men to Spider-Man, Hulk to the multiverse, nothing is off limits. If it’s iconic, controversial, or just plain confusing, it’s getting discussed.
This isn’t fandom for clicks—it’s love, criticism, nostalgia, and truth, all in the same conversation. Because when you care about something this much, you don’t just praise it…you challenge it.

Mickey, Tat and Pete pick up their past conversations about Batman and the Hulk. Why does Mickey dislike Batman Begins? Must every Batman movie start with the origin story? Is Liam Neeson really the best choice for Ra's al Ghul? Why in the world would Hulk ever be wearing a Hawaiian Shirt? And most importantly the debate is on... are all criminals villains and all villains criminals?
