Sorry, if you're looking for a regular episode then this just isn't the week for you. Instead of your regularly scheduled comic and video game comparison I'm taking this week to highlight just some of the many people that have made this show what it is today. Running the spectrum from purely podcast inspiration to full on friendship there's no way I can talk about everyone that needs to be here. <h6>People Mentioned in this Episode</h6> Jay and Miles X-Plain the

Venom/Spider-Man: Separation Anxiety

2018/12/02

Imagine a world where Venom is cool enough to get his own comic, but when they make the game they go and name it after a Spider-Man run instead. That just sounds horrible doesn’t it? You don’t have to, because Tyler Kirby from Better than Static returns to the show to talk Venom/Spider-Man: Separation Anxiety. Learn such things as: Which comic run is the game really supposed to be based on? Does the Acclaim name really mean LJN didn’t have a hand in this? What one game mechanic single handedly

In the 1990s Batman was everything. A comic movie franchise, cartoons, you name it. And then things started to fall off the rails. Tim Burton gets pushed out the door and we get this. But will the game be worth it despite the movie? Or will we get yet another example of a weak game that exists only because of a movie tie in? Listen as Alex Whiteley from Thors-Kin joins the show to talk Batman Forever. Learn such things as: Why would you ever replace Tim Burton? Is the changing face of Batman going

The Avengers make their return here, this time taking on Thanos in a very loose retelling of the Infinity War story.

So we’ve seen Superman games before, and we know how I feel about them. But maybe, just maybe, we’ve found one that actually does Superman justice.

We finally get to one of my favorite characters, The Hulk. He’s the strongest around, except when he’s not. And you better hope that you don’t have to spend much time as Bruce while playing because, well, then he’s not Hulk. Listen in as Phil Primeau of Semi Intellectual Musings joins the show to take a look at one of Marvel’s most misunderstood characters. Learn such things as: Why do Chris and Phil both like Hulk so much anyway? How does a game that looks this good play so weirdly? What do casual

What's silly, blue, and might secretly know what's going on but probably not? A lot of things, but the answer we're looking for is The Tick. Listen in as Joe and Carlos from Life, Death, and Taxonomy come to talk about The Tick and all the insanity that comes along with that.
