1963 with Benjamin Marra

November 5, 2026 · 52 min

Show notes

Writer/artist Benjamin Marra (OMWOT, Jesusfreak) joins us this week to discuss 1963, Alan Moore’s pastiche of silver age Marvel Comics with Rick Veitch, Steve Bissette and Jim Valentino.

We examine Moore’s deliberate return to Silver Age sensibilities, awe over the pitch-perfect recreation of classic Marvel Comics and consider what would have been if the fabled 1963 Annual had actually come out.
