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.Continue Reading
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. Continue Reading
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?

It’s election day on Tuesday, and that means a lot of people are going to get pissed because their candidate or issue doesn’t win. But that’s not what this is about. Our system is set up so that we have a voice in what goes on. Sure, the system isn’tContinue Reading
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.

What does this cover make you think of? If you’re one of the casual comic fans that I’m friends with it’s just a normal picture of an American hero taking out the enemy. What’s so weird about that? Well for one it’s the fact that this was cover dated MarchContinue Reading
I get that this has been done to death. And that I’m probably preaching to the choir since all of you listeners seem to just not be poop heads. I love that about y’all. Unfortunately we live in a world where that isn’t always the case. And basically from theContinue Reading
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.Continue Reading

So you’ve got Spider-Man, a character with so many games out at this point that I’m too lazy to count. You’ve got the X-Men, who have games out but they mostly suck. But both of them are beloved franchises, both helped to save Marvel. And you’ve got Adam Higgins from Odd Dad Out, who admittedly has not directly saved Marvel. Put them all together and what do you get? Let’s just say that the LJN rainbow strikes again.Continue Reading
