Langston Sessoms
Comics, Cameras & Framing the Multiverse
This week, the Comic Culture crew sits down with filmmaker and visual architect Langston “Chop & Shoot” Sessoms, a man who has pointed his lens at legends from BET to Hot 97 to Conway The Machine — and somehow survived the debate over whether Superman or Peacemaker had the better 2025 run.
Mickey, Tat, and Pete dig into Chop’s true comic origins (spoiler: he’s from DC, literally), why story beats matter more than spectacle, and how comic panels made him a better director. Chop breaks down working with Conway on his upcoming short film, picks his go-to duo for Marvel Cosmic Invasion, and schools the crew on why X-Men ’97 hit harder than a Gambit ace card to the chest.
Of course, the squad swerves into the usual chaos:
Is Endgame therapy or cinema?
Did The Eternals mark the beginning of the end?
Should every character really be cracking jokes?
And who’s going to talk Pete Rock into scoring Chop’s feature film?
If you love comics, filmmaking, or just enjoying four grown men arguing about fictional gods, robots, and mutants, this episode is your panel-by-panel masterpiece.
