Richard Scarry Meets Dexter Beneath the Trees

This week on the Major Spoilers Podcast, we review Stranger Things Season 5 (Part 1), Doctor Strange #1, and Venom #252 before diving into one of the most surprising and effective horror books of the year: Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees. We explore tone, character empathy, anthropomorphism, the ethics of serial-killer storytelling, narrative framing, and why this deceptively cute woodland setting hides some of the most unsettling violence in comics today.
