2016/12/07

A cold has bumped the planned evisceration of another 90s comic so instead host Nathaniel Wayne rips into some extremely 90s print advertisements.

Council of Geeks Podcast Feed ·

2016/10/26

Marvel dipped into its stable of horror titles in the 90s, which saw the revival of the "Living Vampire" (which is not distinguished in any notable way from a garden variety vampire) known as Morbius.

Luke Cage has punched his way through Netflix with only a bullet riddled hoodie left in his wake.

2016/09/28

Writer/artist Mike Grell was one of many comics creators who were swept up in Image's promise of creator control.

2016/08/31

Host Nathaniel Wayne tackles one of his very few issues involving the seminal team, the Fantastic Four.

Council of Geeks Podcast Feed ·

2016/08/17

When you think of Wolverine's villains there's one name that undoubtedly floats to the top: Sabretooth. And in the 1993 Marvel decided to give the villain his own mini-series. Host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at the first two issues of this attempt to give a vicious killer who's literally characterized as having little personality beyond savagery his own title.

Council of Geeks Podcast Feed ·

2016/07/06

Time to head back to the Dark Horse well to see what other licensed cows they're milking (mixed metaphor, change this before release.) This two part mini-series claims to take a closer look at the trials and tribulations of the child character from one of the greatest sci-fi action films in history.

2016/06/01

This year will bring no less than four attempts at finally cracking the video game to film adaptation nut that so far no studio or project has been able to properly crack.

2016/05/04

Host Nathaniel Wayne brings back his occasional punching bag Ryan Daly to try and take on the one of a kind creation that was Death's Head II. Can a guy who looks like badass be anything other than amazing? Well... it was the 90s so just looking badass was pretty standard and didn't always carry that much credibility. So let's find out.
