November 21, 2024 Forgotten Italian Sci-fi: Island of the Fishmen
We said sayonara to Japan and buongiorno to Italy, where Sam learns to not leave Jason recording alone when he's been drinking. There would be some comic talk, but Sam cut that out because he is lame.

November 14, 2024 Forgotten Japanese Sci-fi: Zeiram 2
This sequel pulled a bit of a fast one on us, but Sadly, it's what you expect. And Sam puts the end best: "It's just like the Langoliers again, but not as good."

September 26, 2024 Forgotten Japanese Sci-Fi: Virus

September 19, 2024 Forgotten Australian Sci-Fi: Sons of Steel
Call out the Instigators because we've got to get it together and try to get through this insane Australian sci-fi dystopian musical.

Having said all that, you really should check out the Dark Horse collections of Den by Richard Corben, and the old Hellblazer/John Constantine comics. Not an add - we just love this stuff and you might, too!
