Episode 19 of The Starman/Manhunter Adventure Hour is here for your enjoyment! This month we're looking at the books released in August of 1989 (sort of).

First up, as I mentioned last time, we look at Flash 35, where our boy Manhunter joins the rest of Flash's friens to find him after he was kidnapped... by whom? Tune in to find out. While this one didn't come out until December of 1989, we're looking at it now because due to Mark Shaw showing up, well, it has to take place at this point, before Saints and Sinners start...

Speaking of Manhunter, Saints and... well... Sinners...

At 23 mintues, we examine Manhunter 18... the begining of the end for our hero... well, at least his series. This issue is called Saints and Sinners Part 1.

Then at 1 hour 9 minutes we visit my old Cop-A-Comics and look at the Comic Rack for the books on sale the month of August 1989.
