WELCOME to a FRESH EPISODE of Signal of Doom! Tash and Dave go DEEP on Locke & Key, the Tv show and the first two trades of the comic, the BIG NEWS of the week is THE EXIT of Dan Didio from DC after 20 years, Michael Keloisim has an awesome email, Dave issues a RARE APOLOGY, Dave starts issuing out Free Life Advice, mixed with dark visions of a KILLER JOKER, during which Tash stays delightful, there’s Planet of the Apes news, Rick Gentusa makes the SIGNAL NEWS with some Mortal Kombat movie news, and Dave starts going crazy about a Mortal Kombat figure in Spawn.

Just be aware folks at the back end of this episode we had a couple of technical glitches, which meant a little bit of the recording was lost – it’s not major at all but my apologies. Blame Dave, you know Stew would!

HEY GANG! SIGNAL IS BACK! And we’ve got something to say! Rise of the Skywalker gets a THOROUGH DISCUSSION, Dave is happy about his latest Wolverine figure, Harley Quinn TV show is fantastic, Connor discusses The Witcher show, Dave appreciates Henry Cavill’s muscles, and remembers the 80’s in his own special way, while still looking forward to WW84…and Connor bravely tackles the future of the Dc Universe.

Also, we hate Incoming #1, the massively over-priced ad from Marvel Comics. I swear I can hear Stan Lee spinning in his grave.

Happy Holidays, Merry Xmas, Happy New Year, and all the rest. Each of our listeners is special to us. Together we gaze into the future which seems more fun than it used to be. Until the post apocalypse, of course. 🙂
