This week on the Major Issues Podcast, the hosts revisit Deadpool ten years later to ask the big question: did it age like fine wine or like warm chimichangas? They break down how the film reshaped superhero marketing, pushed the boundaries of R-rated comic book movies, and cemented Ryan Reynolds as the definitive Wade Wilson.

This week on the Major Issues Podcast, the Clique sits down with Phillip Kennedy Johnson for a wide-ranging conversation about monsters, morality, fatherhood, and what it really means to carry a legacy. One of the most emotionally grounded and thematically ambitious voices in modern comics joins the show to unpack both his current work and the evolution of his storytelling philosophy.
