This year’s Comic Con hammered us with wave after wave of announcements and trailers, we couldn’t tackle them on our own. Indomitable writer, Kelly Thompson (Jem, Captain Marvel and the Carol Corps), comes to our aid as we try to tackle as much of the news onslaught as possible while taking some time to talk about…

Episode 164: Jason Anarchy Offers No Retreat, No Surrender
Jason Anarchy rejoins us with the very first guest-submitted challenge! He brought to us what he considers “the best worst B-movie,” and we’re inclined to agree. We delight over the 1986 cult martial arts “classic,” No Retreat, No Surrender, starring a bunch of dudes and Jean-Claude Van Damme (sort of). By all means, listen to…

Myles: Archie #1 While the hype behind Archie #1 has been inescapable, there was always an air of “how will they pull this off?” about it. Sure, bringing in the superstar talents of Mark Waid and Fiona Staples to reboot the iconic series sounds great. But what would they do? Would it be this weird meta…
Episode 163: MOTO SURF!

Though, Patrick and Drew drag the good Surf Ninjas name through the mud, hysterics are still had and they all walked away learning a little something about themselves and the meaning of life: Moto surfing.

Myles: To the surprise of no one, my pick this week is Kelly Thompson and Sophie Campbell’s Jem and the Holograms #4. It’s been no secret how much I love the property and this comic, but Thompson and Campbell continue to outdo themselves with each subsequent issue. Thompson’s pacing continues to be one of my…

Myles: Longtime listeners/followers will know I’ve often been a tad harsh on many DC titles since the New 52 rebranding in 2011. Justice League was one of those titles. We had just been stripped of everything and everyone we knew, given a brand new “team origin” fighting Darkseid, which has since been turned into…
Episode 159: Looting Jupiter with Jason Fry
Jason Fry crash lands into the Nerd Cave this week as we talk about his novel, The Jupiter Pirates: Hunt for the Hydra, as well as the work he’s done and has planned for the Star Wars Universe. We tried our best, even threatened to make him walk the plank, to get him to spill details…
