This is where you can ask ANY question you want and we'll answer them on the show. No question is too ridiculous. It can be about the properties that we cover, it can be about comics, it can be about life, it can be about that blue gunk you found one night in your nose after a wild night of drinking, or really anything at all.

Have at it.

Good question. we cover the current comics from IDW of GI JOE, Transformers, TMNT, we also cover the Dark Horse Star Wars comics, and the new Voltron comic from Dynamite. Retro comic reviews from the 80's franchises (GI Joe, Transformers, and Star Wars). We have toy reviews, top 10 and top 5 lists. We will even do movie commentarys. Just general geekery from today and the 80's. We dont take ourselves serious we just have fun.
Give us a listen.

Just like Chuck said we focus on Star Wars and the properties of the 80s (GI Joe, Transformers, Voltron, TMNT, Masters of the Universe, Thundercats, etc.), with our main focus of those being the current day and past day comics of those properties.

We're an explicit podcats (so not to play around the kiddies), but we have a lot of fun and welcome any new listeners.

We've developed a great community for our show and always looking to add more, so check us out. The latest episode (Episode 63) is a good place to start. We give a bit of an overview of the show in it.

Man. I was ranting about this at work the other day. Will be happy to address it when we record again (probably in mid April. We have 3 more episodes to come out in the next couple weeks.)

Check this out TMNT Co-Creator Peter Laird Addresses New Alien Origin

Sounds like he hates it but still wants us to give it a try.

If a good She-Ra/POP comic series came out, would you buy it and cover it on the show.

If you had to kill off a named character from GI Joe, Transformers, He-Man and TMNT who would you snuff? One from each series and try to stay away from characters that have died before and try not to do the obvious stuff. I'm also talking classic series stuff. Can be comic or cartoon characters, doesn't matter and try to keep your personal hatred of some characters out of the equation.

Okay I got a couple of questions, and you might have mentioned them before on the show, but after 69 plus episodes you'll have to forgive me.

As a kid, what were your first figures from the different lines that you guys collected?

Mine were:
Tranformers: Shrapnel the Insecticon
GI JOE: Scarlett and Grunt (got them the same day)
MOTU: Stratos and Zodac (Same day again)
STAR WARS: Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Chewbacca 3 pack.

Second question:

What was the first figure you got when you started collecting again?

Mine was Spawn from the original first wave of figures from Todd Toys (which later became Mcfarlane Toys).

Tomorrow night we are having on the show both Robert Atkins and Quinn Johnson.

Robert you all know from his artwork on GI Joe and various Marvel projects.

Quinn is a writer we've had on the show before to talk about TMNT. He is currently writing the comic Kung Fu Panda and previously wrote an issue of Tales of the TMNT (he is also a huge TMNT and Castlevania fan).

Together they have their creator owned Elders of the Runestone coming out in the upcoming months. We're having them on to talk about their various projects, but also for just some general geeky talk.

So if you have a question for either of them, both of them, or for all of us to talk about, post it here. It can be about anything.

Ask Quinn if he'd ever want to write a story that brought the Triceraton's into the new TMNT :) I always loved the look of them.
