John Layman

Dimitrios drops by The Basement to talk about the 24-hr Creators' Marathon he recently hosted at his Brooklyn shop, Anyone Comics. Artists and writers gathered for a full day of drawing and penning their own stories, with Anyone Comics proudly vowing to publish all finished works! With D is his buddy Stephen, and the rest of The Basement Crew, Greg, Ramon, and Pete, ready to talk all things comics, movies, and who can even guess what else?
It's another uncut episode of The Basement, so pretty much anything goes!

It's Pete and Ramon back for two weeks worth of comic reviews! The CW crossover just finished, and the boys are gonna' tell you all about it (with as few spoilers as possible) The rest of our comic book TV shows are drawing closer to their winter break, and we'll bring you up to speed. Meanwhile on the printed page, John Layman's Chew finishes its epic 60-issue run. And what a series it was! A Must-Read if ever the boys have read one! Marvel' NOW's new Venom book is a surprise hit, along with Black Mask's No Angel by Agents of SHIELD's own Adrianna Palicki and her brother Eric!

The boys discuss Superman and the Justice League, and the start of Trinity War. Spidey and his supervillain lair, or is it superhero headquarters? Who can tell these days? And a whole bunch of Indie #1 books -- see what you shouldn't miss - and what you should avoid like the plague!

Thanos, Locke and Key and G.I. Joe all get discussed on this show. And yet Pete keeps quiet about his rash shaped like Lady Mastermind. Ramon says "nuts to this crap" and takes the week off.

Pete and Steve take turns reviewing the most recent comics. Don't worry, Ramon will be back next week! Special thanks to all of our Veterans!

Another week, another week of comics, another week of Basement mayhem!

More nonsense. Get a load of the nonsense! Plus comic reviews! Nonsense + comic reviews = fun.

The boys invent the 'Pete Phone' and immediately use it to snag an EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with John Layman, creator and writer of the hit comic book Chew! It'll be all the bird-flu psychic-cannibal talk you can muster! Plus, new friends in the basement, and one of them punches Pete!
