Panel Chewing Pick of the Week #134 | Absolute Green Arrow Arrives & Lone Wolf and Cub Gets Deeper
This week on Panel Chewing Pick of the Week #134, Steve and Jarrod dive into a lighter comic week packed with interesting discussions and unexpected surprises. Before getting into the week’s books, they take a look at DC’s Absolute Universe and discuss whether the experiment has been a success, which titles have stood out, and why Absolute Superman continues to exceed expectations.
The comics discussion includes thoughts on Astral Quantum #5, Absolute Green Arrow #1, Only the Savage Are Left #1, American Caper #7, Rook: Exodus #10, Elric: The Sleeping Sorceress #2, Powers 25, and Viking Moon #3. Along the way, they talk about dark humor, post-apocalyptic storytelling, fantasy adaptations, superhero reinventions, and the books that earned their Picks of the Week.
In the second half of the show, the ongoing group read continues with Lone Wolf and Cub Volume 3. Steve and Jarrod explore the deeper themes emerging in the classic manga, including vengeance, morality, social class, samurai culture, and the complicated relationship between Ogami Itto and Daigoro. The discussion highlights how the series evolves from episodic adventures into a larger epic while examining the historical and cultural influences that make it such a landmark work.
Whether you’re following the read-along or looking for new comics to add to your pull list, there’s plenty to chew on in this week’s episode.
