July 07, 2023 Magazines and Monsters Episode 70, The White Buffalo, 1977 with Ranger Gord!
Hey there all you rustlers, it's time for another film discussion! I've invited my friend Ranger Gord, from the Prairie Justice podcast over, and he and I are talking about a very good movie from 1977. This one is a fantasy/western film with some spiritual and supernatural elements (well, at least I think so), and a poignant look at the relationship between Native Americans and settlers. We get some really good performances from Charles Bronson and Will Sampson, even if the special effects aren't up to par. All of this and more, so tune in for a good time.
As usual, you can leave ant feedback for the show through email at [email protected] or to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious or on the shows FB or Tumblr pages (just search Magazines and Monsters). You can find Ranger Gord on Twitter @ToltonGord and on his podcast Prairie Justice: A Greg Saunders Vigilante podcast! Thanks for listening!

July 05, 2023 The Brave and the Bob! Episode 27, The Brave and the Bold 40, 1962 "Three Caverns of Doom" w/Professor Alan!
Hey there, cave dwellers! It’s time for another edition of The Brave and the Bob! Professor Alan has stopped by whilst on his summer break to talk crazy comics! We have great time talking about a first read for me, in Cave Carson! This character was a blind spot for me, but the Prof enlightens me (and possibly you!) about this character and his team. From time to time, you may catch us drooling over the artwork of one Joe Kubert, but not to worry, you'll have a good time, guaranteed.

If you'd like to leave any feedback for the show, you can do so through email at [email protected] or to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious or on the show's FB or Tumblr pages.

July 03, 2023 The Bronze Age of Horror Comics! Tower of Shadows 1, 1969 w/ Nis K (Comic Zen)!
Hey all you grave diggers out there! It's time for something brand new! Please welcome a new guest to the show, Nis K! He and I have been Twitter friends for a while, so I figured it was well past time he joined me for some comic book fun. He's a long time comic book fan, and we have a great time talking about this one. Marvel was just starting to dip their toes into the horror anthology genre, and we definitely are critical and praise this one as we believe it deserves. So, light your candle, and start climbing the staircase to the tower of shadows!
As usual, you can leave any feedback through email at [email protected] or to me on Twitter @Billy_licious or on the shows FB or Tumblr pages. You can find Nis on Twitter @Zen_of_Comics or on his blog theworldofarak.com (definitely check it out)! Thanks for listening!

June 26, 2023 The Bronze Age of Horror Comics! Adventure Comics 434, 1974 "The Spectre!" w/ Ross!
Hey there all you spirits of vengeance! Ross is back for another serving of the Spectre! These stories are something else, as they really pushed the boundary for content in comics at the time. Fleischer and Aparo are masterful, and Ross and I both gush over their work. The run is definitely something you should seek out and we talk about the possibilities of hunting these issues down.
As usual, if you want to leave any feedback for the show, you can do so through email at [email protected] or to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious or on the show's FB or Tumblr pages. You can find Ross on social media at Stop! Lets Team Up or @jsa4e (and definitely check out his podcast)!

It's been way too long since I had them back, and we have a crazy comic to discuss. Batman must recruit the Metal Men to try and stop a military computer gone haywire!

June 09, 2023 Magazines and Monsters Episode 68, The Evil of Frankenstein (1964) w/ Mike (Comics in the Golden Age podcast)!
Hey everybody! It's been a long time coming, but Mike is back, and we're here to continue our coverage of the Hammer Studios Frankenstein franchise. This third installment, is one that deviated from the prior continuity, and is a mixed bag as far as I'm concerned. But, fear not, Mike and I are very fair and give the film the kudos it deserves, and the boos when it fails a bit. So, get your pitchforks and torches ready, because we're climbing that hill to burn down the castle!
As usual, you can leave any feedback for the show through email at [email protected] or to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious or on the show's FB or Tumblr pages (just search Magazines and Monsters). You can find Mike on Twitter @ComicsintheGA or on Instagram @ComicsintheGoldenAge (and definitely check out his podcast, even though it's on hiatus, there is a lot of really fun episodes there!).
