It might be a tad long and sort of underwhelming, but "The Reign of Terror" isn't really that bad of an episode of Doctor Who.

With a movie that's grossed nearly $350 million worldwide, and all four books topping best seller lists, Twilight is very clearly a global phenomenon. But is it any good?

Many attempts have been made to adapt the Street Fighter game series into movies and TV series, mostly with disastrous results. However, Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie is often seen as one of the few bright spots in the long list of terrible movies. Kellen and Brennan recently watched the movie and discuss if this is because it's good on its own merits, or just not as bad as the rest.

Tiny Titans: Welcome to the Treehouse, Batman: RIP and Madman: The Oddity Oddessy are the three collections Dan and Mike review this week. Will they fall in love with the cuteness of the li'l Titans, believe the hype surrounding Bruce Wayne's demise and marvel at Mike Allred's earliest take on his most famous character? Maybe. Then again, maybe you'll want to get your hate mail ready.

We're still in that brief run where Captain America and Bucky are having WWII-set fun. In Tales of Suspense #64, the Star-Spangled Duo face off against a midget with an oversized head, and a man in a monocle. They also fight a slew of henchmen who look like gangsters, talk like gangsters, but are Nazis. Apparently, these henchmen are very, very confused.

Jenny and Mike briefly discuss Christmas and address an e-mail before reading through the January Previews catalog. After that, Ian Wilson drops by to talk about the comic book movies of 2008, as well as what's coming up in 2009.
