But before that our ghostly geezers have a a little bit to say about Swamp Thing, the new DC series now streaming on Amazon Prime in the UK.

It's a whole lot of comic content to fit into 60 minutes but somehow our heroes manage it. Did they use Pym Particles or was it something else entirely? You'll just have to listen to find out!

Whatcha kids.

It's that time of year where we take a bunch of Big Red Barrel staff on their annual pilgrimage to Birmin… oh hold on a minute, we're back in London for EGX!

Yes it's a special show recorded at the ExCel Centre with Coleman, Tim and Diarmuid. So you can expect opinions on some great upcoming games including Marvel's Avengers, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Predator: Hunting Grounds, Iron Man VR and more.

Just like that pesky renegade master Rik and Reuben are back once again with the ill behaviour to talk about all things comic books.

This episode our spandex clad adventure duo wax lyrical about Venom, Absolute Carnage, Hawkeye, Green Arrow, Miles Morales: Spider-Man, AND Secret Invasion.

It's a whole lot of comic content to fit into 60 minutes but somehow our heroes manage it. Did they use Pym Particles or was it something else entirely? You'll just have to listen to find out!
