You’re welcome!😊

[@Misadventures_85]

Many thanks o/

[@dieboyandy5150]

Every time Sal does Dark Knight Alfred, every fucking time, I laugh so loud everyone in my office thinks I'm deranged!!!

[@JoshMunroe]

43:38 Such humility from Ben, haha. More importantly, the "broken clock is right twice a day" strategy really pays off when it does.

[@MeltMoonBeams]

4:24 *This is it for Doug, okay.* And now Ethan has to take up the mantle of Quailman

[@captainvimes6079]

Arham Hossain maybe next year he’ll be Smash Adams or Durango Doug

[@hazelcoleman6744]

Ethan as Quailman is adorbs. Great picks, Tiff!

[@iriidav]

Junji Ito??? What a twist!!! And such an enjoyable one too :) More manga on this channel is always welcome!!

[@WannabeWryter]

Leave it to Tiffany to bring something you didn't know you wanted.

[@Dielawn69]

@@WannabeWryter I did know I wanted it lolz!

[@WannabeWryter]

@@Dielawn69 Still good

[@oldfan4049]

Yes, we need MOAR! Like Tiffany should do the Evangelion for example^^

Sal is pulling off that ghost busters outfit

[@gilmerrobles548]

I thought Ben was gonna be Skeletor, maybe next year

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

Nah. He's just going as a cannibal this year. Poor, poor Ethan...

[@dakenscholz3585]

I'll forever be afraid of holes...

Hah! That's what he.. said...?

[@Ducaso]

Neither were they...

[@psychedelicmanicincarnatio2731]

And spirals...

[@ComicCrossing]

As much as I loved Batman Vampire I need some more Junji Ito Back Issues!

[@rodney2x48]

This video just makes me want to read a DC book by Junti Ito. Like, could you IMAGINE a Swamp-Thing, House of Mystery or Constantine story by Ito!? I'd be all over that comic. Holy shit. Awesome video, you guys.

[@supernerd5781]

I'm all for that!

[@mishimaro5423]

Apparently he made a Frankenstein book published by Dark Horse at some point.

[@Juanhernandez-zx7kt]

I mean why not? They let Katsuhiro Otomo write at Batman story (Batman: The Third Mask if you’re curious. I would pay to see him write a full Batman story.) I’m pretty sure they can get Junji Ito to make a DC horror story.

[@dlvnmedia]

Dammit Tiffany but that extra story was horrifying, I do have to sleep once in awhile. :(

[@iriidav]

Behind Morrison's Arkham Asylum, this is probably my favourite Batman story ever. Sure it's a little goofy and it doesn't always make sense, but Jones' interpretive artwork left a lasting impression on me as a kid and while it it has some very obvious story beats, there's something just all-around neat seeing Batman kill Dracula and deal with vampires in this very gothic-looking version of Gotham. Such a visual spectacle.

[@WDFilms25]

Lol Tiff is adorable when she curses

[@codystahl5935]

I LOVE this episode... not only did we get Sals manic crazy scream in regards to batman but right after Tiffany loses it hahaha "how bout you let me tell the fucking story!"

[@QueerComics1994]

"Check out this hole. It's me sized!"

[@Depthcharge2030]

I got the biggest kick in the gut from nostalgia seeing Ethan sitting there as Quailman. Jolly good show

[@dtejada1988]

Hi guys, I think I’ve discoverer a genius amongst you, Tiff! I mean Sal it’s an awesome story teller but she tells it with so much feelings it’s so easy to fallow, and be intrigue! In light of voting, Vote for Tiff for Story teller secretary!! Sal best costume! Ethan mellow and sharp! Ben funny and annoying someone thank you guys love your videos!

[@the-nightmayor]

Tiff you have to do Gyo...actually, just start a segment where you just do different Japanese horror manga. Like more Ito, Franken Fran, etc.

[@williamgazca5811]

I just wanna say thank you all so much (Danielle you too never forgetting about you) you all always put a smile on my face with every video you release. HAppy Halloween girls and ghoul's! !!! 🎃

[@mannyblight6140]

William Gazca couldn’t have said it better myself

[@TheGreatDevlin]

Sal and Tiffany's superpower list is getting ridiculous. She teleported and materialized new clothes for the entire cast.

[@Justice4Skye]

Tiffany “They are perfectly balanced” ….Sal reluctantly ads the now necessary and iconic “as all things should be” lol love it.

[@dennisssmith430]

OH MY GOD! How did I miss the Junji Ito story at the end of this episode?!?!? Tiffany, you are my most favorite person ever for this! 😁 I binged all 3 of Junji Ito’s hardcovers this past Halloween and fell in love with his work. This just made my day!

[@TheGreatDevlin]

Added to the list of ComicPOP superpowers: Tiffany can teleport... and Ben might be a cannibal.

[@gilmerrobles548]

FINALLY!!!! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS STORY FOR SOOOOOO LONG

[@jonfrombuckland_3784]

Damn. That was an AMAZING intro. Can't wait to see the rest of the episode

[@Grievousish]

For a second that intro music had me thinking you guys uploaded an episode of Jessica Jones by mistake lol

[@karl_alan]

The art within these books, and the covers, are completely insane, but completely perfect and awesome for this story.

[@Htownblokhedz]

I see Quailman, I click....the episode w/ Silver Skeeter and the Wacky Weatherman actually began my obsession with doing my own comics

[@benhramiak8781]

Yay, a Halloween episode. Love you guys and your content.

[@paulscott7598]

WOW I really liked that story you guy told around the fire. it was great

[@JuneieBack]

That horror story has scared me to bits.

[@andresfelipemanjarres7061]

sooo canonically Ben eats Ethan, if he ever apear again in a video im gonna assume is a clone or an alternative dimension doppleganger

[@alexhuduma9474]

Comic Pop: Clone Saga

[@sgtdonaldduck]

Hey Sal, THIS year for Halloween I watched all the TREE HOUSE OF HORROR episodes from season 2-14 ... It was a Great Hallows Eve

[@captainvimes6079]

Jacob VanDyke omg that’s an amazing idea!!

[@galvatronus1139]

Oh boy, I love this story! Thanks for making my Halloween great, guys!

[@timshady237]

WHAT IS LOVE! Get it Ben lol amazing episode guys

[@captainvimes6079]

Not gonna lie, I started whistling the Quail Man theme song today. Thank you Ethan, in the comic pop character select screen I almost always pick you 💜

[@michaelmathes5435]

Last year ppl got sucked into trees, this year ppl got sucked into a mountian... whats next?

[@fishbowluncleben3621]

I remember seeing images of the vampire trilogy when I was a kid. It freaked me out because I was unhealthy afraid of vampires and seeing my hero devolving into an animal still gives me macrbe nightmares of it happening to me. Probably didn't help that I kept drawing vampire batman

[@runaways1915]

Awesome episode and thanks for the nightmares Tiffany

[@karl_alan]

I loved this book. I actually bought it as the 3 separate smaller books from a thrift store when I first started getting back into comics. Batman is a vampire...how di you pass that up for a couple bucks.

[@BUBBA1207]

32:31 LMAO

[@sonofhercules195]

Been almost 3 years and I just found out theres a secret back issues at the end

[@Darkgreenfangirl]

Thanks Tiffany now I will never sleep again. Amazing video as always. I always love your halloween episodes

[@JimmiMiller1]

I know it isn’t Halloween or anything , but I really go out my way to watch Tiff’s scary stories like this, now every time I see a damn hole I have to run the opposite direction , 90’s looney tunes now frighten me lmao

[@GeminiTasiri]

Hell yeah, that bonus episode at the end!!

[@jessegonzalez6982]

Wow really a great episode keep up the great work guys and girl

[@FifthHorseman23]

*Gets to the "fourth" book in the episode* "NO NO NO I HATE HIM I HATE HIM I CAN'T TAKE THIS I'M NOT GONNA SLEEP I'M GONNA BE SO SCARED WHAT IF THEY SHOW PICTURES THAT WOULD BE THE WORST Oh fine it's Comic Pop..." Edit: "OH GOD IT'S THAT ONE NOW I CAN'T DO THIS I'VE READ THIS AND I STILL THINK ABOUT IT OH NO But it's Tiff... fine."

[@BrightBlue925]

That ending... Ben you are a treasure.

[@nerdyrockcomics5428]

Sal dropped a trueblood reference, I love it

[@mybandishighvoltage]

This was another great episode, and I also appreciate the bonus Ito story. Thank you!

[@DMorfin11]

1:09:40 brought a tear to my eye. the memories

[@StickManRoo]

Great work as always. Thank you all for your amazing work.

[@SnekChrmr]

Holy shit that Junji Ito surprise was amazing 🙏

[@adamdalton3700]

1:08:25 Ito!!! Yes!!! Go T to the iff P.S. it’s an allegory for death

[@dlvnmedia]

I am also always disappointed that Red Rain has nothing to do with the Peter Gabriel song.

[@accidentalmadness1708]

I'm scared Tiffany why would you do this to me?

[@ToonGal12]

I love how, because of their costumes, every time someone on the couch moves just slightly, they squeak. XD

[@Nauty_nation1990]

Wow, that junji ito story was fucking terrifying holy crap. Thanks tiffany now im gonna be having nightmares about it.

[@thewilhelmscream7912]

Batman's gettin upset...Batman likes spicy chicken!!!

[@ArgentoLives1610]

Yessss!!! One of my most favorite Batman stories!!! Thanks, Comicpop!!

[@ryanmiller6103]

In preparation for today's supergirl episode I decided to go back and rewatch this one. This vid not only made me search for this vampire batman book, but also made me buy all of the junji ito manga I can. Just bought the liminal zone last week

[@MareoYapp]

Favorite moments 21:45 43:10 51:35 56:35

[@chrisconcannon6490]

Those costumes are great! Happy Halloween!

Why'd he go in there? CAUSE THAT WAS HIS HOLE!

[@davidesterley3163]

Happy Halloween guys, looks like Sal would make for a great Ghostbuster

[@ArKaYseR]

my god ben... that ending made me laugh so much xD hahaha

[@pikapal91]

Good stuff guys! Very fortunate Halloween was on a Wednesday this year. A special double back issues for a special day.

[@terravictoriaproductions]

Great video to watch after my overnight shift

[@oldfan4049]

IMO it's best episode of Back Issues to date, so interesting, horrifying and funny at the same time. And that ending, hwa-ha-ha))))))))))) XDDD

[@Revanxbone]

This was so funny when story spiraled out of control and all of you were just let's try to guess what happens next... Perfect chemistry

[@BadBoyWolfy_xo]

When you are a hour Into the video & finally realize tiff is female fight club Verison of dr.strange

[@mariopartyhouse5559]

So I read Crimson Mist when I was about 10 years old, not knowing that it was going to be super dark and gruesome. Needless to say, it scarred me a bit 😬😬

[@architeuthis3476]

See, _this_ is an example of a situation in which I'm okay with Batman killing: when he irreversibly becomes the villain and has to be stopped.

[@branavankandiah9429]

Hoppy Halloween ComicPop! 🐰 Edit: I also appreciate the bonus story.

[@Deception975]

I can't remember if you guys have covered Countdown: Arena. You should, if you haven't.

[@Robin-to8en]

Yeah whenever someone’s says “perfectly balanced”, I respond with “as all things should be”

[@ivansplvd6518]

Awesome intro song

[@punkromantics]

bitch what the fuck that last story was scary as hell im gonna have nightmares forever (also i know ive said this before but tiff's highlighter was Extra Glowy this episode im so here for that)

[@TheRealZubes]

👻 (thank you so much 😊💋)

[@TommyBaysMusic]

One of my favorite Halloween tales.... can't wait to see what tomorrow's will be.

[@Word0fBird]

This has been a fantastic year for books I've sent in

[@jabezcreed]

Is Ethan the superhero version of Doug? It's been forever since I saw that show.

[@Gus98Bus]

Quailman can go Ultra Instinct btw.

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

Ka ka ka ka kachi daze!

[@yolanda8563]

They should revisit this concept using Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo.

[@architeuthis3476]

OMG _Amigara Fault_ ! My first experience with this was a few years ago, around the time I was doing UE with some people. There were three of us and we found a wall under a building with three tunnels that were roughly human-sized... In my mind, J-horror is the most effective horror - particularly _Silent Hill_ and the works of Junji Ito

[@justinclark397]

I've always wanted to see this story be adopted into an animated movie.

[@johnny2003]

It's a twofer...Nice!

[@Iddefylaw]

I think this is my favorite back issue episode. Has everything I love about the show

[@ivansplvd6518]

This was so good!!!

[@L.Oswald]

I dont know why it messed with me so bad, but when they introduced themselves, because of the unique seating, my eyes went crazy left and right, trying to sync up the name being said to the person saying it. 😅😅😅😂😂😂

[@evagrius3818]

I actually feel bad after hearing that Ito story...

[@jamesy1318]

Quail Man!!!!! Hahahaha Doug was great show!

[@matyG101]

Wasn’t expecting Ito!

[@GitShiddy]

Fun Vampire fact the "have to be invited in" was created for the 1930s Dracula movie, it's not part of Stoker's original story at all.

[@anthonylynch423]

Please do the strain guys!! Think that’s a great comic adaptation of the books and tv show. Tiff would love it for sure

[@MrMcGuinnes]

I’m loving the costumes guys 👌🏻

[@jeffrosicness]

Your name is 👌👌
