Cyberverse (2019)On top of that we make a bunch of crude and juvenile jokes about something very unfunny we heard not involving Bill Clinton & a certain best-president-ever. We also learn how to breathe in a car on fire underwater and Forrest recaps issue 26 of:
Skybound's The Transformers (2025) ongoing comic series! Currently on a run by Robert Kirkman & Dan Mora and it is AWESOME
