Hope you're in the mood for some hard-boiled tough-guy nonsense, because in this episode, Ryan and Justin discuss Frank Miller and Todd McFarlane's Spawn-Batman from 1994. With only the barest of plots to get in the way of killer cyborgs and back-alley brawling, prepare to hear the story of how a very special friendship began as your hosts attempt to answer the question: how seriously is Miller taking any of this?

Also covered in this episode: Spawn and Batman's 16-bit trash talk, more on the allure of green slime to the children of the '90s, a proposal for the manufacture of bootleg dolls of the cutest li'l Batman you ever saw, and how to make Spawn's mask vanish. (HINT: hit him in the kidneys.)

Discussed: Spawn-Batman (1994)
