History of Awesome is an epic 38-part trip down memory lane - each episode we're covering a new year's most important, influential, or just-plain-awesome movies, games, TV shows, comics, and more.

Up next is 1986. Dragon Quest made its U.S. debut, Labyrinth and Big Trouble in Little China hit theaters, and graphic novels like Maus and The Dark Knight Returns helped the comic book medium grow up.

Other discussion topics include Transformers: The Movie, the Sega Master System, and Transformers: The Move.
