Jimi’s Jargon – Episode 4: Geoff John’s GL!

Jimi is BACK on Signal of Doom withs a fresh Jimi’s Jargon! Dave’s money cleared and our heavy States-side hitter is BACK IN TOWN!

Jimi & Dave  break down the first volume of Geoff John’s Green Lantern ongoing, covering issues 1 to 14 of his landmark run, fresh off the heels of Green Lantern: Rebirth!

There’s a lot of TWIST to this tale! A lot of scatter-gun questions! a LOT of history! A lot of Dave whining! A lot of Ferris Aircraft! A lot of HAL at FULL THROTTLE!

Hal Jordan faces new threats from his old foes. The deadly Manhunter androids and the mutated Shark return with shocking violence … yet they are just the precursors to even greater dangers.

A Maddened Black Hand embarks on a murderous rampage just as Hal finds himself the object of an alien race’s insidious plan to harvest humans as living weapons of war. Hal Jordan is back—but being tested in ways he never could have imagined.

That’s from the Amazon summary and you KNOW they KNOW what’s going on! Enjoy Jimi’s Jargon. The hits keep coming and they don’t stop. It’s like THE BEATLES.

#47: Secret Wars, Yes and No, Marvel Time, RIP Judy

It’s another HUGE week on the Signal as Dave & Stew cover “Marvel: Secret Wars” from the mid 80s! This is a big one and the boys give it 110%! Elon Musk and his $500 flame-throwers get a mention, Dave forecasts dystopian futures, and we cover Cory’s fan casting on Gary Oldman at Marvel!

Valiant has been bought out by DMG,  there’s Captain Marvel set photos, Dave delights in the correct pronunciation, the Ant Man and the Wasp trailer HITS and hits hard, and Stew is our man on the ground in Wakanda! There’s sure a lot of buzz on Black Panther! We can’t wait.
