Strap in, because this episode is less “review” and more survival run through one of the most disorienting comics Grant Morrison ever unleashed. Jesse and Mark close out their Morrison trio with Nameless (Image, 2015) — a six-issue blast of cosmic horror, occult symbolism, and reality-slippage that left both hosts asking the same question: what did we just read? Jesse frames the experience with an “explain like I’m five” recap of a mission to stop an Earth-killing asteroid… only for the story to collapse into nightmare logic, fractured timelines, and the creeping suspicion that none of it is happening the way we think it is.

From there, the conversation turns into a hilarious and brutally honest breakdown of what Nameless does well — and what it does to the reader. The gore is extreme, the imagery is relentless, and the book’s constant switching between “realities” keeps you off-balance by design. Mark admits he can enjoy “weird,” and even appreciates the thread that connects this whole Morrison run: the unreliable narrator, the idea that every page dares you to question what’s real. But Nameless pushes that device to a breaking point, and the deeper they dig, the more the episode becomes a debate about symbolism, accessibility, and whether Morrison is telling a story for readers… or building an occult puzzle box for himself.

To make sense of the madness, Jesse brings a rapid-fire Q&A (yes/no) segment where both hosts score the book on everything from disorientation and dread to whether it “clicked” by the end. The verdict: Nameless is deliberately dense, often baffling, and absolutely not for everyone — but it sparks one of the most entertaining, unfiltered conversations of the series.
