Description

”Silver to Bronze: A Marvel Comics Podcast” is a journey through Marvel’s Silver and Bronze Age comics, revisited with fresh eyes. Co-hosts Tony and Scott grew up with stories from this era, but many of the early issues remain unread territory for them. Each episode explores their impressions—both from when they first encountered these comics and how they see them now, decades later. Unlike many discussions that analyze comics through a modern lens, this podcast is about experiencing these stories as they were, appreciating their original context, and discovering what still resonates today. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to these classic issues, join Tony and Scott as they dive into Marvel’s past with curiosity, nostalgia, and a bit of humor.

What happens when two Bronze Age kids walk into a comic shop in 2026? This week Scott and I grabbed Fantastic Four #16, Iron Man #9, Miles Morales: Spider-Man #1, Uncanny X-Men #32, and Amazing Spider-Man #35 to see how far our favorite heroes have traveled since the days of spinner racks and cover prices you could pay with pocket change. Fair warning, these books are hot off the shelves, so spoilers are on the table, but mostly it's two longtime fans figuring out what's changed, what hasn't, and what still makes us grin. Pour yourself something cold, pull up a stool at the comic shop counter, and come catch up with us!   Want to reach out to us? 📧 [email protected] 🌐 silvertobronze.bsky.social
What happens when Doctor Doom gets his hands on the Power Cosmic? This week Scott and I crack open Fantastic Four issues 57 to 60, the classic 1966 and 1967 run from Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, where Doom tricks the Silver Surfer and takes that incredible power for himself. With Latveria's ruler suddenly more dangerous than ever, Reed and the team have to figure out how to stop him before the whole world pays the price. Pour yourself something cozy, pull up a chair, and come spend this adventure with us!  Want to reach out to us? 📧 [email protected] 🌐 silvertobronze.bsky.social
This week Scott and I are talking about Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man issues 64, 69, and 70, all from 1982 and written by Bill Mantlo with art by Ed Hannigan. These issues introduce Cloak and Dagger, a pair of vigilantes with a very different code than Spidey's, and their war on drug dealers ends up dragging Silvermane and even the Kingpin into the fray! Come hang out with us as we chat about these gems of the bronze age.   Want to reach out to us? 📧 [email protected] 🌐 silvertobronze.bsky.social
This week Scott and I head back to the very beginning with Conan the Barbarian #1 from 1970, written by Roy Thomas with art by Barry Windsor Smith, before jumping ahead to issues #23 and #24 from 1973, where Conan crosses paths with a certain red haired warrior for the very first time. We spend some time talking about how much Windsor Smith's art transformed between that first issue and this later run, and it's honestly wild to see the difference. There's adventure, betrayal, and a whole lot of Hyborian Age atmosphere to dig into along the way. Want to reach out to us? 📧 [email protected] 🌐 silvertobronze.bsky.social
What happens when Marvel's friendly neighborhood web slinger gets caught in the middle of a plot he doesn't even understand? That's the setup for Giant Size Spider-Man #2, published by Marvel in 1974 with writing from Len Wein and art from Ross Andru. Spidey crosses paths with our favorite martial arts master Shang Chi, and the two end up on a collision course before either of them realizes they're being played. This is a fun one and we hope you come hang with us for an hour or so!  Want to reach out to us? 📧 [email protected] 🌐 silvertobronze.bsky.social
