Next up we talk music and comics with the collaboration of Alice Cooper and Neil Gaiman with THE COMPLEAT ALICE COOPER which accompanied Alice Coopers’ album THE LAST TEMPTATION.

Episode 27: Evil Robin Army

Matt and Cat are here with comic book goodies of another kind!   Matt is catching up with the internet and sharing his new found love of ROBIN IN THE RYE from ANDREW MAKES COMICS. 

Then Cat takes the stand for 2-MINUTE HATE on the Army of Darkness series from Dynamite Comics.  Is the hate really hateful or just annoyance?  You have to realize Cat is a superfan when it comes to The Evil Dead, Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell. Yup.

Then Matt and Cat review the 4 issue comics of THE EVIL DEAD movie adaptation from DARK HORSE comics, written by Mark Verheiden with art by illustrator John Bolton.

JOIN US! JOIN US! JOIN US! Krak-A-Doom!

ONE PANEL WONDERS

Wherein I present a panel or two from an old comic, completely out of context and let your dirty, absurdist hungry minds ask WTF?

Really?  THAT’S what infamous gangster and longtime FBI snitch Whitey Bulger looks like?  Wow..he’s kinda hot.

This is actually the first page of the little known “Whitesploitation” comic Lois Lane: Unchained!   She’s taking her upper-middle class rage to the streets!

They were from two different worlds, but somehow, against all odds, in that one moment, they lived a lifetime of mutual neck warming love.  Fashionable print scarf or bright yellow boy scout style kerchief, they knew they were to remain secret soul-mates.

Episode 12: Flipping Castles

In this, the latest edition of Matt and Cat Have Back Issues, our Panel to Projector feature is the 1998 graphic novel and 2002 film Road to Perdition. Hear what we thought about the movie and book and what we rated them.

In Worst Villain Plots Cat share’s a dastardly scheme from the pages of the World’s Finest, Issue #93 The Boss of Batman and Superman. What happens when an evil scientist gets Super Smarts? What does he plan to do to “loot the world?”

Matt picks apart The Mandarin’s plot from the pages of The Incredible Hulk issues #107-108, Ten Rings Hath The Mandarin and Monster Triumphant. Matt even uses his issue of The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe #15 to keep the Mandarin’s rings straight.

Now, tune in and enjoy the comic book chat! Keep on reading comic book back issues, because Comic Books Kick Ass! Yup!

HOT!

In our second round of 90′s UGH we share a letter from a DARK HORSE back issue; (ALIENS: HIVE #1) written by Bob Shreck. He comments on a bad habit of some Comic Book collectors in 1992 and we ponder how much has changed.

Tune in, listen and come back to comment! Back me (Cat) up when Matt tries to diss my favorite hero BOOSTER GOLD! Keep Reading Comics! KRAK-A-DOOM!

Matt and Cat: Special Edition – A Comic-Con Conversation

Comic-Con has come and gone and just this past weekend the 2012 attendees clamored and refreshed their browsers to snag tickets for 2013. I (Cat) was among those trying for tickets and managed to score another badge. WHEW! Having attended Comic-Con now for 13 years and I still can’t wait to go again and again and again!

Sadly, Matt hasn’t been to the Nerd Mecca! So Matt and I sat down to talk about Comic-Con! We rattle on about how’s it has changed, where the comic books can be found and other random bits about the fun stuff that there is to see in the aisles and the panel rooms.

For my full rundown of Comic-Con 2012 you can check out Cat’s Blog here: Cat’s 2012 Comic Con Adventure

But before that, take a listen and enjoy our Comic-Con conversation! Then go out and read some comic books! KRAK-A-DOOM!

I, Cat, buy comics every Wednesday as it’s been a habit that just can’t be broken. Since DC relaunched their 52 I currently collect 19-20 of the new titles. This week it’s almost an all DC, the an AOD comic that is just ok. What can I say? I’m a sucker for things of the Evil Dead realm. Well here’s the list:

Wonder Woman - Amazon

Check back soon for our first episode!  We’ll be starting a bit out of the norm with a very Avengers based show…but then how couldn’t we?

COMING SOON!!!
