  • Summary

  • With the Comics Code loosening in 1971, monsters came roaring back into the pages of our favorite medium. Kids that grew up reading comics were now making them; many of them were members of the counter-culture. Throw in a desire to do something all-new (and some fads like kung-fu) and you have all the makings of a wild decade of comics. Join Jacob Balcom & Matt Howell as they explore some of the craziest comics of the 1970s (and early '80s). Each season focuses on a different character.

    S06E08: Weird War Tales #114 w/ Bryan & Jamie from Marvel by the Month!
    Sep 21 2024

    We're joined by Marvel by Month's Bryan Stratton & Jamie Wenger!
    Forget Schrödinger's cat; we've got Kanigher's comic. How can a war comic be both ridiculously surreal and disturbingly real at the same time? The commandos go deep undercover in Germany as a traveling circus freakshow to kidnap Einstein's bomb buddy from a Nazi concentration camp!

    S06E07: Weird War Tales #112 - The Medusa Sting!
    Sep 7 2024

    After Rommel lands a crushing blow on the Allied forces in Tunisia, the Creature Commandos are sent in to keep the Afrika Corps off balance until reinforcements arrive. Did YOU know about this? Why wasn't this part in the history books??! Anyway, yadda yadda: an ancient gorgon pyramid tomb and some magic wine later, we have doll-sized monsters. All in a day's work for our "freaks."

    Kanigher's newest new G.I. Robot, J.A.K.E. #1 meets up with our motley crew of monstrous misfits when they return to the South Pacific to investigate some mysterious attacks on Allied ships. The resulting adventure defies pithy blurb explanations!
