Hello and welcome to another episode of the Signal of Doom.
This week Stew and returning co-host Simon Jones tackle the topics of this week, while giving Simon a chance to explain last weeks positive Predator review!
We also touch on spoilers from the Russo brothers, the walking dead, the joker, and the new captain Marvel trailer among others.
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!
Hi guys, just a short Krisis in the Kremlin episode as the Signal pays tribute to the great Len Wein, sadly departed Sept 10 2017. Len was a giant of the comic book industry, the co-creator of Wolverine, NightCrawler, Storm and Colossus, amongst MANY others, an acclaimed writer on titles such as Swamp Thing and Spider-Man, an editor with acclaimed works such as Watchmen and Saga of the Swamp thing produced under his stewardship, and an all time beacon of good ideas and professionalism inside the industry. To say he will be sorely missed is an understatement. Here at the Signal we are heartbroken by Len’s passing but seek comfort and grace in the great work he left behind. Our thoughts are with his family and friends. RIP Len. Thank you for all the great work. xxx
On this brand new episode Dave and Stew light up the Signal of Doom from under the Swamp to discuss Old Man Logan by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven. Also, there’s a lot of DC, Marvel and Fox movie talk, speculation over why Ben Affleck takes life so seriously, inviting Bryan Singer over for a 3 hour conversation about X-Men continuity, stories about Thor, fan casting for Carrie Kelly, Dave’s story about breaking out into LL Cool J songs to Greg Rucka, and comic reviews including Hulk #3, Justice League of America #1, The Old Guard #1 and the wonderful Love is Love.
