Mindless Ones

This is us talking about the possibility of a Watchmen prequel/sequel. We then talk a bit then finish with a song. I think by this point we’re all too drunk to be podcasting. By “all” I mean Gary Lactus. Just listen to how drunk the foolish cretin is here:

idiots.

With our gift giving over but spirits still high, Zom pipes up about the problems with continuity using X-Men Regenesis # 1 as a starting point.  Conversation drifts to many areas including DC’s New 52, 2000AD and more, ending with a whole lot of talk about just how great Judge Dredd is.  Speaking of which, here’s a panel by Garth Ennis and Glen Fabry from the Dredd tale, Talkback.

At this point we’re all getting a bit drunk and we all like comics. This is the best time to get excited about The Official Handbook Of The Marvel Universe and Who’s Who in the DC Universe. Listen now as grown men turn into children before your very ears!

Not going to waste your time too much here – one of the very best animated shorts ever. I saw this when I was very young (and the retro BBC 2 logo at the start of this is a representation of exactly when it was) and it scared the living shit out of me.

I’ll just be quiet and let you all enjoy a little late night spookiness for Christmas Eve.

Merry Christmas Mindless Ones…

Holy shitting Christ!  Here comes an incredible, once in a lifetime event:  The Beast Must Die gives Amy Poodle a copy of Island 3!!!! A small press item by Lando from Decadence Comics.

Bobsy’s turn to bestow treats.  Zom is the lucky recipient of Swamp Thing # 60. This episode is also remarkable as we manage to get trapped in the room when the door knob breaks, adding a sense of real life drama to proceedings.
