Deep Cut Nerd

After a week away because of... well, we'll let J explain, Deep Cut Nerd is back with the question: Just who is the best dressed in speculative fiction? A two part exploration, first up: the men.
Special thanks to Heidi Handelsman for making us sound awesome.

J and Larry try to fight the law, but, the law is gonna win. How do different speculative fictions take on the legal system? Are there lawyers in the DC universe? What's up with Vulcan's killing each other every 7 years and THAT'S ok with the Federation?

We ain't talkin no Scotty, no Kaylee, no Miles O'Brien, we are talking the brains behind the operation, the Engineers who built the Enterprise or the Wall in Song of Ice and Fire. Stuff like that... Larry causes some problems when he claims it was Bob the Builder that built the Wall of Ice...

J and Larry talk addiction in speculative fiction. They don't have a problem, no, they don't, they, seriously, no, we don't have a problem.

J and Larry talk about the Rogue. Who are they, what do they want and why we love them. Of course, Han Solo, the gold standard is talked about. All goes well, until we get busted.

J Holtham and Larry have been pretty harsh on the Batman. And there are good reasons, BUT, in this week's episode, The Batman gets a hero, Louie Pearlman stops by. Larry and Louie talk Batman, who might not be so bad after all.

J and Larry talk doctors and healers in speculative fiction. Why are healers in fantasy so bad at their jobs they don't even rate being characters? Why do Phd's have more to do in a story than MDs? Why is Dr. Richards called MR. Fantastic?

LIVE from WONDERCON, J and Larry ponder: Evil Orgainizations... how do they work? It isn't easy running an evil organization, there's a lot of logistics to think about...

J and Larry have been having a hard time at work lately. So, in order to cheer themselves up, they talk about the worst job in all of speculative fiction, from Fantasy to Science Fiction what is #TheWorstJob

Sorry, Batman, you lose again, as J and Larry tackle the important issue, who has the Greatest Rogues Gallery? J goes with Spider-Man's the Sinister Six, while Larry champions The Flash's Rogues Gallery. Who's right?
