Cult Film Showdown: Enter the Octagon Archives - We Talk Podcasts

You know him from Balls of Fury, Fanboys, 4dX PODCAST, Goldbergs, and of course Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, but if you don’t know Dan Fogler’s graphic novel work then you don’t know enough about him.

Dan Fogler was kind enough to get on the phone with WTc hosts Brett & Mo for a half hour to talk about his latest passion project, Brooklyn Gladiator from publisher Chapterhouse Comics.

Dan goes into great lengths about the book and the concepts inside it, his inspirations, how Chapterhouse got involved and an awful lot more. It’s a discussion on everything from Donald Trump to the 2nd amendment to the importance of storytelling, and it’s damned interesting and fun.

Dan also shares a lot about the collaborative process on the book and what co-writer Andrew Harrison brought to the table, the work of artist Tom Hodges in bringing the visuals to life and how Ben McCool helped round it all together.

So make sure you pre-order a copy of Brooklyn Gladiator by Dan Fogler at your local comic shop and all the excellent talents that helped him bring the book to life and come on back for another episode of We Talk Comics dropping every Friday morning.

It’s going to be hard to find a better guy to talk to in the music industry than long time Britny Fox bassist Billy Childs.

Observant, intelligent and thoughtful, Billy Childs goes into depth on a number of amazing events from his career including:

Living in Philly, the city’s personality and music scene now and in the 80’s and seeing the Philadelphia Eagles win Super Bowl LII.

The showcases Britny Fox played for record executives to try and get signed and how those worked.

The shooting of the Girlschool video and some of the crazy music video concepts Billy Childs couldn’t believe were brought to them.

The band’s look and how they pushed their image from clothes to hair to stand out.

The CD covers for the first 3 Britny Fox albums (The Self Titled Britny Fox, Boys In Heat and Bite Down Hard), how they came to be, what he thought of them then and what Billy Childs thinks of them now.

How the personalities of the band members like himself and Dean Davidson got along.

The most insane audition tape they got when looking for a new singer to replace Dean Davidson before finally settling on Tommy Paris.

An absolutely hilarious practical joke the band played in the tour bus involving ex-lax and chocolate cake.

Billy’s conspiracy theory of how and why record companies keep musical artists controlled.

Plus as the show was recorded on Feb 8th 2018 it was the 31st anniversary of the death of Britny Fox’s original drummer Tony Destra. Billy Childs takes us deep inside the events of that night in his own words on the fatal car crash and events immediately after including how it affected the band. Simply the most in depth recap anywhere.

We talk Comics is back with your hosts Brett, Chris and Mo and on this episode we’re talking about the comic books coming out of Storm King Productions!

Storm King is run by Sandy King-Carpenter, and if the last name sounds familiar it’s because her husband and business partner is none other than the legend himself, filmmaker and musician extraordinaire John Carpenter!

The guys spend the first part of the show talking about some sample books Storm King provided us like the awesome Tales for a Halloween Night.

 

John Carpenter’s Asylum.

As well as the currently running Tales of Science Fiction: Vortex.

Then the 2nd half of the show is the guys geeking out over the films of John Carpenter like Halloween, The Thing, Escape From New York, Big Trouble In Little China and so many others. These films are so darned great, and some of your hosts all time favorites.

And as long as you’re reading this how about going back into the archives to check out some other John Carpenter related stuff we’ve done with two more audio interviews. One is with Chris Sebela who’s written The Escape From New York comic book and the other is with Adrienne Barbeau, ex-wife of John Carpenter and star of Swamp Thing.

Check them out, try some comics from Storm King, and we’ll be back with more for you all real soon!

When veteran penciller and Misty Knight co-creator Arvell Jones got on line to chat with us the first thing he asked was “What are we talking about today?”.

Our answer was “Hopefully just some good stories”. From there Arvell said he hoped he had some before unleashing a string of the most amazing tales from the comic book industry we’ve ever heard, featuring his interactions with one legend after another, such as:

His first full pencilling job after being Rich Buckler’s assistant and how Buckler reacted when he told him about it.

Tony Isabella’s reaction to Buckler’s reaction.

The last conversation Arvell Jones had with Rich Buckler shortly before his unfortunate passing in 2017.

The first time Stan “The Man” Lee talked to Arvell Jones after he had been already working in the Marvel offices for a while.

The differences in office etiquette between Marvel and DC comics in the 1980’s.

The success of the Black Panther movie and the work Arvell Jones did on the movie poster.

His honesty with a young Bob Layton, how Bob took it and remembered years later when Bob Layton was running Valiant.

Having Jack “King” Kirby tell a teenaged Arvell Jones that he should become a professional comic artist.

Drawing Iron Man during the controversial nose on the mask era and how he and John Romita dealt with it and each other.

Plus… The Secret Origin of Milestone Comics revealed… And how Dwayne McDuffie told him racism contributed to it’s failure.

So do yourself a favor and listen to the awesome Arvell Jones tell these and a whole lot more great stories, it’s excellent stuff.

With the release of Iron Man in 2008 and the launch of the Marvel Cinematic Universe everything changed, from expectations the fans had to the way hollywood looked at connected universes.

But before that there was another game changer in 1978 with Superman starring Christopher Reeve, Margot Kidder, Gene Hackman,Marlon Brando, and directed by Richard Donner.

From the 30 year period of it’s release until 2007 dozens of films based on comic book properties were released… But which were the best?

Join regular hosts Chris Beck, Brett Monro and Mo Kristiansen along with 2 special guests, writer Brett Harris (Adventures in Pulp Presents) and our old pal the minimalist collector Keith Callbeck, for a great chat.

From Superman and it’s sequel, to The Crow, to Batman, to X-Men and Spider-Man and to more obscure properties like American Splendor, Ghost World and Rocketeer the merits of the best films for 3 decades are discussed.

So what makes the list, and what’s the pick for #1? The answer may surprise you, so listen to find out!
