Comic Book Couples Counseling PodcastEric Powell and Harold Schechter on Dr. WerthlessIf you’re a comic book reader like we are, around the same time you learn about Batman and Robin, you’re introduced to the medium’s scariest boogeyman, Dr. Fredric Wertham. The publication of his Seduction of the Innocent in 1954 thrust Wertham into the popular consciousness, sparking hysteria and moral panic, hindering the medium’s growth, and significantly harming the artists who worked within it. We assumed that Harold Schechter and Eric Powell’s latest true crime collaboration would roast Wertham viciously, but Dr. Werthless is far too good a work to be an attack. Schechter and Powell reveal a m...

Inmortalizado en personajes cinematográficos como el de Norman Bates de Psicosis, el de Cara de cuero de la Matanza de Texas o el de Buffalo Bill de El silencio de los corderos, el aparentemente apacible e inofensivo granjero del pequeño pueblo de Plainfield era en realidad un monstruo más trastornado que cualquiera de sus avatares ficticios ”

Voices of True CrimeHarold Schechter - Hell's Princess: The Mystery of Belle Gunness, Butcher of MenIn the pantheon of serial killers, Belle Gunness stands alone. She was the rarest of female psychopaths, a woman who engaged in wholesale slaughter, partly out of greed but mostly for the sheer joy of it. Between 1902 and 1908, she lured a succession of unsuspecting victims to her Indiana “murder farm". Some were hired hands. Others were well-to-do bachelors. All of them vanished without a trace. When their bodies were dug up, they hadn’t merely been poisoned, like victims of other female killers. They’d been butchered.Hell’s Princess is a riveting account of one of the most...

Holmes is notorious -- but only Harold Schechter's Depraved tells the complete story of the killer whose evil acts of torture and murder flourished within miles of the Chicago World's Fair.

Holmes ad...
