WELCOME GANG to another big SHOW, the last episode before Dave goes to Hawaii for his holiday and STEW TAKES OVER for 3 weeks!

Don’t worry kids, Dave will be back and is full of ranting this episode to make up for his up coming absence!

There was a big Kevin Smith presentation on the Dc Universe streaming service that is launching on batman Day, Sept 15 which we discuss in detail, Oscar Isaac is linked to The Batman, and there’s speculation Batfleck might be uninsurable for the Batman, if he is used at all.

We take a swing at the appalling standards of journalism at CBR, and there’s an interesting look at recent example of “Insult apology” by Bendis on Superman, while our favourite debate about ninjas makes a comeback!

RIP Gary Friedrich, Marie Severin , and Russ Heath. All legends, go in peace. You changed the world with your work.

Dave is excited about Red Dead Redemption 2, and the guys critique the upcoming Heroes in Crisis event by Tom King. Dave’s dad almost stopped the car when he heard Batman and Superman were headed for therapy!

Get ready for next week when Stew takes CONTROL! Aloha!

Hi GANG! HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY TO THE SIGNAL OF DOOM! Dave and Stew celebrate ONE YEAR of bringing News AND JOY to the PEOPLE! This episode, we cover “Kraven’s Last Hunt”, Stew gives us all a Powerpoint Presentation on the Black Panther box office, Joss Whedon leaves the Batgirl movie, supposedly because he doesn’t have a story, there is a very complicated fan theory about T.H.A.N.O.S locations of Infinity Stones, which Dave doesn’t even understand, and Lego is back with the possible spoilers for Infinity War – and Dave brings up Joe Fixit!

As this is a BIRTHDAY show the boys celebrate with some of their recent favourite debates and moments, there’s test screenings of Aquaman, a debate about the SyFy show Krypton, Marvel are renumbering (again), and Rutger Hauer says Blade Runner 2049 has “no humor, no love, no soul”! OUCH!

Plus weekly comics and Kraven’s Last Hunt! Thank you to all our listeners for supporting the Signal, our Year Two will be MORE INTENSE and BLOOD-DRENCHED than Year One! The tale of these two moody vigilantes who beam the Signal has just begun! Plus, Punisher Playbook makes a welcome return!

Dane from Punisher Bodycount Visits! Ghost Rider/Wolverine/Punisher!

It’s a great day for the Signal of Doom as friend of the show, Dane Lamont, from Punisher Bodycount, the internet’s premier Punisher podcast, joins Dave for an in-depth discussion of the 90’s cross over Ghost Rider/Wolverine/Punisher: Heats of Darkness, and it’s accompanying sequel “Dark Design”! We go IN-DEPTH on both of the books, written by Howard Mackie, with art by John Romita Jr in “Hearts of Darkness”, and Ron Garney in “Dark Design”. The art is something ELSE!

Also, Dane and Dave go in DEEP on the Punisher and what he is like both as reflection of society and the evolution of the character from the 80’s and 90’s to NOW. We talk about past runs and where the character could be headed in the future. Dave openly speculates who is the editor on Punisher, forgetting this is in the issue itself! Seriously, there’s a lot to enjoy in this episode for fans of the Punisher, Wolverine AND Ghost Rider.

Also, Dane tells some awesome stories about his time working as an extra on the recent Marvel Netflix shows, and some cool insights into how that works along some stories of the one & only Jon Bernthal on set!

I’d encourage all Signal of Doom listeners who dig the Punisher in any form to check out Dane & Jake’s Punisher Bodycount podcast! I think even Stew might get something out of it! There’s an active and very fun community for Pushier Bodycount on Facebook too!

Thank you for listening to the show, subscribe to us on iTunes, follow Signal of Doom on Facebook, and don’t forget Signal of Doom is now on Youtube! More videos will be coming this week!

Peace out, folks!

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.

Finally, let me wish Judy, my Fan Club President, RIP from the bottom of my heart. You were an inspiration and the Asanti Series owe you.
