Omen Revelations Podcast

In this episode Mike and Steve do one of our typical deep dives into the roots of the vampire and werewolf myths and how they have evolved into how vampires and werewolves are vied today. We talk about the different types of vampires and werewolves from around the world and of course the works of Polidori, Stoker and Rice as well as films and tv shows - (not all of them, but a few). We even get into vampire politics, morality and ethics if it were us.

In this episode Mike and Steve talk in depth about the Avengers in comics since their debut in 1963, the Avengers animated shows/films and of course the Avengers in the MCU.

In this episode Mike and Steve talk about the Dragon Girl/Albino Warrior #1 campaign - what you can expect and how much everything is going to cost - the comic itself as well as the characters and the inspirations for them.

In this episode Michael and Steve talk about one of the greatest success stories in all of indie comics - of course we're talking about TMNT. Since 1984 when Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 came out from Mirage Studios the Turtles have grown to be a worldwide phenomenon worthy of the record books and we're here to celebrate 38 year later.

In this first of a two part episode Mike and Steve talk about the 1982 cyberpunk/noir classic Blade Runner in celebration of the original film's 40th anniversary. We talk about the making of Blade Runner, the many versions of the film (including missing and added scenes) and of course our fan theories about the story itself and all it implies. But we didn't stop there. We also talked about the 1997 Blade Runner video game.

We'll be back tomorrow for Part 2 when we'll discuss Blade Runner 2049 and the 13 part anime series Blade Runner: Black Lotus.

There are a lot of differences between the Thor most people know from the comics and MCU films and the mythological figure from Norse mythology. We talk about those differences as well as Thor's history in Marvel Comics and the 2011 Thor Film.

On today's Indie Comics Creator Spotlight Mike and Steve talk with Robert Smothers III about founding Red22 Studios and his 56 page graphic novel called Broken Planet that he wrote, did the art and lettering for and everything. We talk about his creative process and what his inspirations are.

You may not be aware of this but Omen Comics declared June 22nd "Karate Kid Day" on social media back in 2020 in honor of the release of the first film back in 1984. Like most franchises that have a day we celebrate by watching the Karate Kid trilogy and Cobra Kai and talk about it with a friend and mutual fan - in this case, ORP hosts Michael Nunneley and Steve Sellers. We are a few days late with this due to our release schedule, but we celebrated the heck out of the Karate Kid franchise and even dig into the deeper, more spiritual and philosophical side of both the films and martial arts.
