Two True Freaks

SPOILER WARNING: WE DISCUSS STAR TREK DICCOVERY, STAR WARS THE LAST JEDI AND THOR RAGNAROCK!

Its a shiny brand new 3rd Degree Byrne!! And as we get ready for the coming of the “Black Panther” movie by Marvel next week, we cant help but think what if Hooper X from “Chasing Amy” could introduce the movie?

Borrowing heavily from Kevin Smith, It would sound something like this:

“The hero's name is TChalla, and he's a descendant from the black tribe that established the first society on the planet, while all you European motherf@#$ers were still hiding in caves and s@#t, all terrified of the sun. He's a strong role model that a young black moviegoer can look up to.”

That is our subject today, The Black Panther. So get your favorite drink out, sit back and enjoy as Tim Elliott and Brian Hughes look at John Byrnes contributions to the legend of TChalla, Wakandas own Black Panther.

We cover two stories today, as The Panther had a team up with X-Mens Storm (Which years later brought them together in brief, but wedded bliss) and a team up with The Fantastic Four.

Tim and Brian also spend time catching up and talking movies and TV, like that recent entry into the Star Wars saga or the new Star Trek series and maybe a little Ragnarock. Spoilers abound so be warned.

The boys are back and this time out they're looking at two war focused books. Paul brought the final issue of the series, Combat Kelly and the Deadly Dozen, while Scott brought an issue of the web-comic, The Dreamer, by creator, Lora Innes. They loved one of them. The other? Not so much. Listen in to hear the fun!

Today's action classic isn't from the dreary, beige era of the 70's but is bang up to date. Yes, Andrew indulges himself in a LETHAL WEAPON binge session! But not the films, oh no, rather the TV adaptation. A TV adaptation of a movie?!? How can this possibly end well? Plus a TON of correspondence from YOU!

In episode 89 of the Man of Screen podcast, its the story of six children, who one day met a super hero.

Yes, you remember the late 1960s and 1970s TV show, “The Brady Bunch”. But do you remember the companion cartoon series, and do you remember the time when Superman appeared on it?

No? you dont?

Well, then, let Mike Zummo take you on a trip to a time when Superman met The Brady Kids.

Follow the gang through paint-up day and learn exactly how much trouble Clark Kent will actually go through to find a phone booth in which to change.

Is Lois Lane still on the trail? And is Clark hallucinating.

No youre not hallucinating as Mike came back from his break to cover Supermans appearance on “The Brady Kids”.

Next time: its another month off and the podcast will return on March 6 for weekly coverage of “Superfriends” with the episodes, “The Power Pirate” and “Professor Baffles Puzzle”.

In this week's Smallville-talking episode, Magnus talks about Smallville season 06, Smallville's shippiest season.

Why is this referred to as Smallville's shippiest season? Well, a lot of the reasons start getting laid out in this week's batch of episodes. Speaking of which, this week's batch of episodes are Reunion, Fallout, Rage and Static.

Big doings going on here. Major conflicts and story points for this season are either established or else reinforced in these shows as Smallville ventures into completely new territory.

So what are you waiting for? Start listening right away or the ghost of Duncan will drop a gargoyle on you or something.

Due to the avalanche of awesomeness, there's just no time for listener feedback this week. But Magnus has slowly been getting caught up lately. There's been some feedback recently and there's more coming soon! So don't be left out! You too can offer your feeble effort at tribute whenever you want! Yes indeed, you humble serfs are always welcome to kiss your benevolent leader's ring. Corrupt DiManzocorp interns are ready, willing, able and eager to accept your bribe to present your meager missives to your wise emperor. The email address to use is [email protected] as the other seems to be having technical problems.

In an another sublime act of truly awe-inspiring magnanimity, your emperor permits you lowly rabble to suggest topics for a future episode. Thus, requests may be sent to [email protected] for the aforementioned corrupt DiManzocorp interns (who probably lack souls) to review, whereupon your leader might consider thinking about the possibility of potentially discussing whatever you have in mind some day. And that's a promise!

Coverage of Superfriends begins in March 2018.

The Epic Spencer Tracy Crossover with the Film and Water Podcast continues as Rob Kelly joins Paul to discuss another Tracy film: Bad Day at Black Rock. The film is universally praised by critics, but....Is It Jaws? Listen in to find out!
