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.

Comic Chaos: Leaks, Doom Bots & Bootleg Trailers
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The crew is back together—and it feels like a reunion episode with opinions. Mickey Factz, Tat Wizard, and Pete Rock kick off their final episode of the year by unpacking the leaked Avengers: Doomsday footage (or refusing to), Marvel’s trailer rollout, and why messing up Doom would be unforgivable.
From bootleg Spider-Man: Brand New Day clips and Amazing Fantasy #15 nostalgia to Supergirl, Lobo, James Gunn skepticism, and Scarlett Johansson potentially stepping into the Phantasm role, the conversation stays wild and unfiltered.
They wrap things up with emotional X-Men ’97 Season 2 death predictions, gaming talk, and a fast-paced rundown of the stacked 2026 comic slate—ending the year exactly how they started it: honest, passionate, and deep in comic culture.
