The Oblivion Bar: A Comic Book Podcast

Joining us today is the creative team behind the literary fantasy Image Comics series The Author Immortal – which tells the tale of Hector Ramirez, a failed writer who gets the opportunity of a lifetime: to help reboot the fantasy book series that defined his childhood. 

But when he discovers the original author has mysteriously vanished into his fictional world, Hector is pulled into a realm where stories are alive, and some are willing to kill to stay in control.

It is our pleasure to welcome Frank Barbiere and Morgan Beem onto The Oblivion Bar Podcast!

An ocean of holy water couldn't help you now! 👹 ✝️

This year for our 6th Annual Halloween Special, we are discussing the 1994 schlocky cult-classic Night of the Demons 2! We also briefly talk about Tron: Ares and Peacemaker Season 2 since we weren't able to cover either more in-depth.

"Serving as a sequel to the 1988 cult classic Night of the Demons, Night of the Demons 2 takes place six years after the original massacre at Hull House. Angela’s younger sister, Mouse, now attends a strict Catholic boarding school, still traumatized by Angela’s mysterious disappearance. 

When a group of rebellious students trick Mouse into joining them for a Halloween party at Hull House, they unwittingly awaken Angela’s demonic spirit. As Angela begins killing and possessing the group, a courageous nun, Sister Gloria, leads the remaining students in a battle of faith versus evil to send Angela back to Hell once and for all."
