Tales of the Dark Tunnel with Chris Dreier

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…

Pursuit of Plastic with Chris Walk

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…

Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro with Anthony Gramuglia

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…

Life Under Kaiju with Johnny Craft

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…

Armorines Project SWARM with Luke Herr (Multiversal Q/RPG Pals Club/Established Property Playhouse)

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 there?)  comes on the show to help explain what’s going on with this crazy comic. Mostly because he’s literally the only person I know who’s read this thing. Plus he made notes. Really good notes.

Indefinite Articles with Bryan Soroka

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…

The Incredible Hulk The Pantheon Sage with Diego Rivera (Behold the Sack)

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…

215 Ink with Mike Perkins

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…

Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure with David Weinberger (Shonen Flop)

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…

Funko Pops with Adam Williamson (Boldly Viewing)

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…
