Zen Intergalactic Ninja with Steve Honeycutt (Ray...

2020/12/13

Ninjas are cool. Aliens are cool. So why not make a ninja that's also an alien? And also has a team of rag tag environment saving sidekicks to help him out? Saving the environment via something aimed at kids and hoping they'll pressure their adult overlords into following suit is still cool right? Enter Steve Honeycutt from Ray Can't Sleep to help us take a look at this alien life form that inexplicably wants to save the Earth. Learn such things as: Did any kids media actually make saving

Long Ago & Far Away with Chris Mancini

2020/12/06

There are tons of stories about little kids who get to go to other worlds and have grand adventures. Like literally tons, and I'm cool with that. But what I really want to know is how they handled things afterwards. Outside of Peter Pan related things (and Narnia but I think that's a bit of a stretch) there isn't really anything. That's where Chris Mancini from White Cat Entertainment can help out. Listen in as we talk to Chris about his comic Long Ago & Far Away, which takes a look at what

Fist of the North Star with Jordan Forbes (Shonen Flop)

Post apocalyptic mayhem. New societies and population groups popping up and insisting that they are living the right way. The power struggle between might and right. Giant weaponized vehicles storming across the desert sands. OK, maybe not that last one, but what do I know? Good thing I have Jordan Forbes from Shonen Flop to help me out with a look at Fist of the North Star on NES. Listen in as we look at yet another game that should have been featured earlier in the run of the show but I just

Lonely Receiver with Rye Hickman and Zac Thompson

2020/11/22

Let's get one thing straight. Lonely Receiver is a really fun read. Rye Hickman (previously published as Jen Hickman) and Zac Thompson are really great humans. Together the make a really good team on a book that you really should be reading. And to have two of the people working on it to come talk about it? That's really super cool. Listen in as Rye Hickman and Zac Thompson come talk about where this crazy (in the best way possible) series came from, how they got into comics, and whether they think

Fester's Quest with Michael Bivens (Silent Journeys)

2020/11/15

Everyone that I know who knows who The Addams family is knows them from the 1960s TV show or the 90s movies. A few people from this game. But basically nobody that I know knew that The Addams Family was a comic. For real, do you know anybody who knew that? I sure didn't. Neither did this week's guest Michael Bivens from Silent Journeys. But he very much did know about the old TV show. I'm really glad I had someone for this episode that grew up with the show a lot more than I did. Learn such things

An Embarrassment of Witches with Sophie Goldstein

2020/11/01

We need something wholesome and real life looking and coming of age but also magical. I wonder where we could get something like that right now. Hmmmm, let me think over that one. Normally I'd ask Sophie Goldstein if she had anything, but I already know that a possible answer here is here recent book An Embarrassment of Witches. Just trust me and go read this one. It's great, she's great, show us pictures of your cats. Learn such things as: What's it like to cowrite a book while fitting in

Tales of the Dark Tunnel with Chris Dreier

2020/10/25

We've already been introduced to the Dark Tunnel from Chris Dreier in the Freaks & Gods comics, but what if I told you that there's more? And that you could get in on the fun now with just a simple pile of Kickstarter money? It's true. Chris has a Kickstarter for Tales from the Dark Tunnel that you really need to check out and throw money at because, like I'll say many times in the episode, it's pretty good and the Freaks & Gods comics that kind of go with it are pretty good and Chris is

Pursuit of Plastic with Chris Walk

2020/10/20

We all had toys growing up, and made up stories to go along with them. How do characters from different universes react to each other? Who could conceivably fit in with another toy universe without missing a beat? But most of all, what would happen if you were in that toy universe with them? This episode we have the Chris Walk half of the minds behind Pursuit of Plastic, a Kickstarter project making a comic that explains exactly that. We also talk about the comic imprint DFAT comics that he and

How do you follow up what is possibly the greatest comic book video game of all time? Or at least was probably holding that spot when it came out. Easy, you just pick the story up right there and start going again. Enter Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro. More like Enter Awesomeness. Enter Anthony Gramuglia to help break down this not as iconic but equally as good in its own special way sequel, Spider-Man's place in pop culture, and the Spider-Man comics that were coming out at the time.

Giant monsters are everywhere these days. Godzilla movies, Godzilla movie rip offs, you name it. But we also follow either the monsters or the big bad heroes in those stories. What happens with the everyday people like you and me? Johnny Craft attempts to throw some answers into the mix with his comic Life Under Kaiju.

2020/10/11

This has got to be one of the shortest comic runs I've seen to get a game. 13 issues on the initial run, 4 issues on the relaunch that tied into the game. And it shows, I never hear anyone talking about Armorines. I can't imagine why. So why try to make a game out of this one? Acclaim is at it again trying to recapture some of that Turok magic, and Luke Herr from Exiled, Multiversal Q, John Wiki, The Luke Herr Podcast Project, Established Property Playhouse, and RPG Pals Club (Did I miss anything

I've always been into history. Alternate history, weird stuff, you name it. There's a reason why I like the Indiana Jones movies. So you can imagine my excitement when a history based comic came to me about being on the show. That person was Bryan Soroka with his comic tentatively titled Indefinite Articles. Starting in World War I, this is a great concept and I'm really looking forward to see the progress that this story makes. You can find Bryan on Twitter @BryanSoroka33. If you want to be a guest

How easy should it be to make a Hulk game? Put things in front of Hulk. Let Hulk smash. It's not a hard concept really. Especially when you kind of have a story already made for you. You'd think anyone could do it. Enter Diego Rivera from the Behold the Sack YouTube channel. He likes Hulk. He likes games. It's a match made in heaven really. If only everything could work out this nicely……… Learn such things as: Is it better to have a game based on the comic or let it do it's own thing? At what point

It's about time I talk to someone on the publishing side of things. Sure, you can self publish and do everything yourself but wouldn't it be nice if there was someone who could help you out with that? Maybe someone like Mike Perkins from 215 Ink perhaps? I sure hope so because that's who I got. Listen in as I learn from Mike some of what goes into getting a comic into my hands, and be sure to head over to the 215 Ink shop to pick up some of their stuff.

It's not often that I've seen a comic really follow along an entire family tree. Maybe a bit down the line but generation after generation after generation after….. well, you get the idea. Too bad I'm not a expert on the Jostar family legacy. Good thing David Weinburger from Shonen Flop who thankfully is all over this one. Things will probably get a bit bizarre.

My wife says no Funko Pops for me, at least not if I'm paying for them. She lets me get video games and comics, so I guess I can't complain. But since I was shutdown before I could even express any kind of interest in getting some I never really looked into them. That's where Adam Williamson comes in. I learn some about the history of these big headed little dudes, how he gets away with having so many, and just what I'm missing out on. Learn such things as: How do you get DC and Marvel to play

Sometimes Japan gets something super cool that we don't. Alright, that happens all the time. But in this case it really sucks because it's a good Spider-Man game based on a comic mini series and it really wouldn't have taken much to get it ready to come out over here.

The world is once again whining about finding politics in the entertainment. Almost like they haven't been paying attention to anything for years. Oh my gosh, when did all of this politics get into comics? Can't we go back to the good old days when it just wasn't there? Excuse me, I could barely keep a straight face typing that out.
