NEW PODCAST EPISODE! The Order of Battle Podcast episode 29 is here! Joel, A, and Jason have sat down with Jim Beard's ( https://twitter.com/writerjimbeard ) pulp novel, DC Jones and Adventure Command International: Secret of the Sunken Tomb. All three of us read the book and wanted to discuss. It’s another playing with fire considering how interested Jason and Joel are in dipping toes into 12” GI Joes. Unsurprisingly, A also has a 12” action figure opinion. 
Have you read this book? Do you know Jim Beard? He’s a long time member of the toy community and has been writing great books. Pick this one up here: https://www.amazon.com/D-C-Jones-Adventure-Command-International/dp/B08DSTHT3F

NEW PODCAST EPISODE! The Order of Battle Podcast episode 28 is here! Jason and Joel skip toy talk and just fanspasm over the 1995 movie Johnny Mnemonic. It’s a movie Jason’s loved and owned since it was new and Joel’s first time watching through. 
The video game Cyberpunk 2077 is in the news and with its inclusion of actor Keanu Reeves, Jason brought up a film that he felt screamed Joel. Join the boys as they laugh about and love this pure expression of the trans-humanist, cyberpunk genre from when 10 gigs was considered an enormity. 

What's a dystopic film or story that we should check out?

NEW PODCAST EPISODE! The Order of Battle Podcast episode 25 is here! Kickliy joined us for a fun conversation about toys that became a fun conversation about art, France, comics and also some toys. It was amazing to have a good friend join us and just BS for a bit. 
Have you picked up his art books? Musnet? Perdy? What toy hauls have you gained recently and what books are you reading? 
We’re recovering from election night with everyone else by playing with GIJoe and enjoying the community!
