Next week all hell breaks loose in Riverdale when zombies attack Archie and the gang in Afterlife with Archie.

We begin our Halloween celebration.  For the month of October we’re focusing our attentions on the darker side of comics. This week we are discussing the Alaskan Vampire book 30 Days of Book.  A failed screen play, turned into a comic, then optioned for a movie.  Cause that’s how Hollywood works kids.  

Next week we’re getting a dose of Goth culture commentary, with a side of gleeful vengeance when we discus Johnny the Homicidal Maniac.  No trip to hot topic required.

Everyone has the capacity to be a super hero, assuming they are given super powers.  This week we find out what happens with ahooker is give super powers in the comic book satire, The Pro.  It’s funny, and very offensive.  You’ve been warned.

Next week we start our halloween festivities with the Alaskan vampire comic, 30 Days of Night.  What happens when vampires take over a town where the sun doesn’t rise for 30 days?  More importantly, what happens with a failed movie pitch gets turned into a comic book…and then actually becomes a movie?  Join us for all the fun at www.funnybooksandfirewater.com

“Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!” 

The tables are turned on the Teen Titans in this weeks book “The Judas Contract” - Winner of the Comics Buyer’s Guide Fan Award for “Favorite Comic Book Story” of 1984.

Next Week its Star Wars! Well, not so much anymore.  Although its no longer “cannon” were reading “Dark Empire” from Dark Horse Comics.  Luke goes to the dark side, Leia becomes a Jedi. Chewbacca dose Chewbacca things.  Its Star Wars!…sort of.

Its second tier hero madness with 1987s The X-Men vs. The Avengers.  With so much fighting, drama, and inaccurate international law, you’ll think its professional wrestling.  

Todd was attempting to join us from the Nevada Desert.  Sadly it seems he was taken prisoner by robot overlords.  Hopefully a worm hole will open up next week to let him join us again.

We are not sure what book we will be reading next week.  We will announce on our social media as soon as we know. 

Were taking out our first Manga this week with Death Note, written by Tsugumi Ohba and art by Takeshi Obata,.  An epic cat and mouse game between a brilliant teen who can easily kill just by writing down a name, and the detective determined to catch the killer.  Next week we are reading the X-Men Vs. The Avengers from 1987, written by Rodger Stern.
