It’s a BIG show this week as the boys Ghost Rider: Spirits of Vengeance! It’s a mighty big tome and it’s about as mid 90’s as could be! Davey has been busy listening to podcasts and gushes about an interview he heard with Denny O’Neil, and the story behind the Batman character Leslie Thompkins, who was based on a real civil rights activist.

Signal of Doom now has a Youtube channel! Subscribe for extra bonus video content and Dave’s extra special rants! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqR6umE4tOpSU9UpqvfTnCA?view_as=subscriber

Gary Oldman has thrown his hat into the ring and he’s chasing a Marvel movie. Dave comes up with some of his worst ever fancast calls, while Stew hits it out of the park with his suggestions which include Galactus himself!

There’s a whole discussion about Netflix and “Bright”, and it’s 10 years since the tragic death of Heath Ledger, a renowned and very talented actor who so perfect in “The Dark Knight” playing the Joker.  There’s a new Robocop movie rolling down the line, and Superman’s red trunks are back on the outside!

Meanwhile there’s a new petition to apparently make the Joker gay “again”, Dan Slott is off Spider-Man and onto Iron Man, and the boys revisit one of their favourite arguments – will Robin Williams  get a cameo as the Genie in Aladdin!

Its All New Ghost Rider this week for Dave and Stew! Its been a week of missile alerts in Hawaii while Dave dreams of riding through Hell-fire as the Rider! There’s reports of Chris Evan as Nomad, some in depth research by Dave (and Dave Warner!) has all the Wolverine sightings, there’s a Han synopsis, and the eternal question – is Spider-Man in the Venom movie?

Dave rants about Batman sobbing, we talk about conventions in Australia, we are sceptical about the He-Man film universe, there’s talk about the Black Widow movie and major digressions about tarantino and his upcoming movie featuring the Manson murders as a backdrop…

AND MUCH MORE KIDS! Lots more rants from Dave too.

Welcome to Episode 44- the boys are discussing “Nova: Origin” by Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness! This is Stew’s pick and it’s a GRAND SLAM!

Stew does a complete chart of his “murder board” inside his private study, and shoes it with listeners – this outlines all the film dates for superhero movies from until 2020! That’s a lot of research for the Main Man! The Fox X-men movies have a lot of reshuffles, as meanwhile there are reports of a Kitty Pryde solo movie on the horizon at Fox,

There’s sexual harassment allegations against Stan Lee, a Black Widow movies is reportedly under development, Mark Wahlberg is buy driving a hard bargain, Bendis done for a backup story on Action Comics 1000, filming has wrapped on Avengers 4, and Dave has more to say about the upcoming Sabrina Netflix show!

Also, look for a neat comic by the one and only Gary Kwapisz, a Civil War zombie story, Stonewall’s Arm!

And of course as Adam Crouch has commented – Stew, the Mammoth was DEAD!
