It's spooky season, and with a looming new game on the horizon we've decided to go back in time to the 1990s and revisit the game that put survival horror on the map, Resident Evil!

We're back after a little vacation to finally wrap up our coverage on the kickoff issues of DC's Absolute line of comics, and boy did we pick one to finish off with!

What do you do when one superhero name has been attributed to almost a dozen characters? INCLUDE THEM ALL!

Yeah we know it's not August anymore, but that doesn't matter! You wanted it, and you've got it, we're back for the next round of Absolute DC! *Please note there is an audio issue in this episode that we unfortunately did not detect while recording. Unfortunately we could not fix it before release, but we will have it all better by next episode.

We're wrapping up Absolute August with the last of the Trinity, the big ... well, not quite BLUE blue ... maybe navy? And while yeah he's not a boy but I wouldn't really call him a man yet ... you know what just listen and find out!

We're back with more Absolute DC, and this one is written by friend of the show Kelly Thompson!

Join us as we have a (largely) SPOILER FREE discussion about one of the best games of the last 20 years. But after the end credits roll ... SPOILERS AHOY!

Every once in a while comic book companies get a wild hair to reboot their characters in dramatic and unforeseen ways. Maybe Green Lantern is an Medieval Knight, Maybe Wonder Woman is a kaiju, and maybe this time Batman is one of the most down to earth sympathetic characters in franchise history ... Wait, is this real?! Listen and find out!

Once in a blue moon a comic company rebrands one of their principal characters into a new book to draw in new readers. TWICE in a blue moon they do it again ... for the same readers!

Super Summer may be over, but we're not quite done with the Family of Steel. For our first Comic Catch Up we're covering what might be THE definitive Supergirl story, and they're turning it into a movie! How is it, and how do we think they're going to adapt it? Listen and find out!

It's finally here! All summer we have been covering stories about the Big Blue Boy Scout and we have finally gotten a look at the film that's kicking off James Gunn's take on the DC Universe. We're kicking off with a little spoiler free review before a big warning that SPOILERS ARW AHEAD! AHOY!

In our second to last entry into Super Summer we cover the (almost) most recent live action Superman with a CW series that only ended within the last year. What does our elder millennial Superman have to say in this day and age? Listen and find out!

It's a new millennium, and what better way to celebrate than rebooting a classic hero! We're taking a look at a show that ended up lasting a decade, more than any other sci-fi tv series of the time!

It's a (an almost) new decade, and that means a new look at the Big Blue Boy Scout! But this time, Lois Lane is just as big of an influence on both his character and the show. But how does the Superman of the 1990s stack up? Listen and find out!

It's Myles's birthday, and he heard word that Drew had somehow after all these years never saw a movie that was extremely important to him! So we take a look back to the 90s to a previously unsung but now very sung Disney classic! Does it Stand Out? Will they see Eye to Eye?! Listen and find out!

Every so often a hero gets so popular that the multimillion dollar company that owns it decides to revoke the rights of anybody that's been making money off of it. And what do you do when that happens? Well if you're one of the Salkinds you pivot to another, younger, cooler, more hip with the kids version of that same character! And this time ... in Florida!

Look, up in the sky! It's a billboard, for a new Superman movie! And to celebrate, we're spending this summer talking all about the big blue Boy Scout, but we're not talking about his adventures on the silver screen, we're talking about all the different versions that appeared right in your very home! We're kicking off going all the way back to the 1950s and one of the very first superhero tv shows to appear. Do not adjust your TV set, this IS in black and white. But does it hold up? Listen and find out!

This year we have focused on the perception of what anime was thought of versus western animation in the early 90s, and hoo boy does this one have it all! This one has everything we've been warning you about!

It's the early 90s and fan-subbed anime is circling the country! You pop in a cassette and what do you see? Well there's a decent chance in 1991 that it was none other than this OVA series. But how does it hold up today? Listen and find out!

On this week's episode, the boys cover a show that's somewhat of a rarity in anime ... western high fantasy! Record of Lodoss War combines fantasy TTRPG characters with Japanese animation to create a whole new world.
