Why people recommend it
The Black Monday Murders, Vol. 1 by Jonathan Hickman is a gripping graphic novel series that blends esoteric occultism, high finance, and dark conspiracy into a sprawling narrative. Ben Bowlin on Stuff They Don't Want You To Know brought up the graphic novel while discussing the biblical concept of Mammon, noting that the series uses Mammon as a compelling placeholder for its primary antagonist. Later on the same podcast, Matt Frederick also mentioned the comic book series. During a conversation about FIFA president Sepp Blatter and his status as a potentially sacrificial figure, Matt recalled specific details from the Inner Circle within the story, specifically referencing the stone chair occupied by the character Stephen Glazer. Furthermore, Matt mentioned rereading the comic series during an episode from February 2023 while joking about historical conversions and narrative structures. Across these different episodes, the hosts frequently returned to the intricate world-building and dark corporate mythology crafted in the pages of Hickman's work to illustrate various real-world financial corruptions and shadowy historical anecdotes, demonstrating how deeply the dark comic resonated with their ongoing explorations of hidden history and structural institutional power.
