Hey there, all you Batty listeners! My pal Chris Bailey is back, and we're here for the spooky season to talk about some horror themed Batman comics! These books were chosen for two big reasons, and we get into that right away on this episode. From the late Bronze Age or Copper Age, if you will, Gerry Conway really upped the ante with a very creepy story, and then add the atmospheric horror talents of Gene Colan, and you've got a winner. So, join Chris and I on this Halloween themed journey! As usual, if you'd like to leave any feedback for the show, you can do so through email at Magazinesandmonsters@gmail.com or to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious or on the show's FB page (I'm also on BlueSky @docstrange.bsky.social).

Hey there, zany ones! It's time for more madness from DC comics, and specifically Bob Haney! This one really caught me off guard a bit, and for one big reason. Hero and I explain it in this one closer to the end of the episode, but don't fret, as there are plenty of Haney-isms to talk about, plus some awesome art by Neal Adams!

Hey there all you trident wielders! Back by popular demand, is my coverage of the Son of Satan, and of course, that means my brother from the great white north, Charlton Hero is joining me! We had a blast the first go round, so we dive headfirst into these next two issues. First up, Daimon gets a letter from a University in St. Louis about a haunted building, then he must face a satanic cult! Oh and he slaps a chick for no reason. Not kidding, he really goes off the rails, which we will address. All of this, and feedback as well. So join us for some fun!

We'll see Boston Brand bust up a counterfeit ring, and save a good couple in the process. Then, he faces off against another trapeze specialist called "The Eagle!"

Unsheathe your sword, and get ready for action! My buddy Chris Bailey is back, and we're here to talk about the one and only, Conan! Why did we pick this specific comic? Well, it's a landmark for a lot of folks, as it's the first time Big John Buscema pencilled Conan! he went on to have a tremendous run on the title (with Roy Thomas), and we mark the beginning of that tenure right now!

Hey there, faithful listeners! My good pal Chris B. sat down with me for another crazy Jack Kirby comic, as it's August, and time for the spotlight to shine solely on the king! In this episode, we tackle the much maligned Satan's Six, which was part of the Secret City Saga! Sounds great, huh? Well, we have some opinions of our own about this book and its execution, so tune in to find out all about it! If you have any experience with these comics, let us know your thoughts! After our conversation, there's a quick clip of an interview with The King (first voice you hear is Will Eisner), where he talks about his early Captain America work, and his patriotism. As usual, any feedback for the show can be sent through email at Magazinesandmonsters@gmail.com or to the FB page, or by reaching out to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious and you can find Chris @Charlton_Hero (and definitely check out his other podcast appearances, and blog charltonhero.wordpress.com)!

Welcome back to the crypt, you creeps! This episode is a landmark of sorts, as it will showcase a comic from the DC Bronze Age library of anthology horror comics. Not only that, but it's #JackKirbymonth on the calendar (see @Relatively_Geek on Twitter) as well! Well, if it's a crazy Kirby comic, I have to drag my good pal Charlton Hero on the show for his unique perspectives on the more quirky side of the King! Weird Mystery Tales was a crazy title, but you can count on Kirby to bring the awesome! Stay tuned aft the discussion, as I found a creaky cool clip about Spirit World by Jack Kirby, from a great Youtube channel (Strange Brain Parts). If you want to leave any feedback, you can email the show at Magazinesandmonsters@gmail.com or to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious.

Moving into the next phase of Morituri-dom... in which a traitor is revealed, our heroes are put on trial... and we meet the next-next generation(s) of doomed-to-die protectors of the planet, including the shoe-drop installment which introduces the... Morituri Monsters! All that, and our usual nonsensical tangents and hoo-doo! We're getting close to the end of the Gillis/Anderson run... we hope you're enjoying these "big bites" of Morituri goodness! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics @Charlton_Hero / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/ The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Inviting you to spend ten or so hours with the Chris's, as we continue chronicling the adventures of Earth-1287's Mightiest (and only) Heroes!  Having already suffered a handful of losses, our Morituri Makers, Tuolema and Nion have already moved on to "Strikeforce: Morituri - The Next Generation", a trio of new characters who the Chris's initially HATED... especially Will "The Douche" DeGuchi!  Will they ultimately win us over?  Oh, you KNOW they will... This tangent-filled compilation will also introduce the idea of the Morituri Cure, traitors to the cause... and the somewhat horrifying (in all the wrong ways) issue about the CATS!  We hope you enjoy!  -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics @Charlton_Hero / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/ The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Hey everybody! I invited a new guest to the show for a special occasion. August has been deemed #JackKirbyMonth (by the powers that be on Twitter), and I couldn't let it slip away without talking some Kirby on the podcast (technically this episode won't drop until September 3rd, but just use your imagination). Joining me this time, is a Kirby enthusiast that loves the King's crazier, later work (like the book we're covering today) Charlton Hero! CH has been a good friend of mine on the Twitters for a while now, and also through the group effort known as SuperBlog Team-Up (a group of friends that dedicate specific subjects to podcast/blog about and support each other through thick and thin---look for the hashtag on Twitter)! We discuss the issue, our love of Kirby, and more! Stay tuned after the conversation, as I inserted a short clip of Jack Kirby talking comics (intro by Harlan Ellison)! As usual, any feedback can be left at Magazinesandmonsters@gmail.com or to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious (and please check out my blog MagazinesandMonsters.com for more comic book fun)! Thanks for tuning in! And definitely check out CH's blog The Superhero Satellite!

We're finally here... the star-studded 200th Episode of X-Lapsed!  Today we're making good on a discussion that was supposed to happen way back in Episode 112 of this program... but, became delayed over and over again due to me family's never-ending moving woes!   Well, the moving woes are still ongoing... but, I figured this special GIANT-SIZE episode would make a really fun milestone episode, and so - over the course of the past several weeks, I have had the pleasure of sitting down with a great group of pals to discuss each and every entry in the X of Swords Handbook!   I assured them all that these segments would take up "10-15 minutes tops"... well, nearly eleven hours later... here we be!   I want to thank everybody who took part in not only this episode, but the entire #XLapsed journey to this point.  It honestly means the world to me... more than I can adequately put into words!   TIMESTAMPS!

As we near the half-way point of the Morituri Mondays project, the stakes continue to rise!  In today's show, our "One to Grow On" character, Louis (Radian) makes some startling discoveries... and his methods might just wind up costing him his life!  Also, fresh off her Court Martial "performance", Ruth seems to be getting a bit of the stink-eye from the Paideia Brass and Commander Yuri!  Also still... Aline is still pregnant, and is growing more and more concerned as her clock continues to tick!  OH! And also... the Horde's gone and grown tentacles... what a sticky wicket, indeed! In other nonsense, we get to learn about Bob Budiansky, the Bronx, almost profanely overstuffed OREOs, Captain Power, and your hosts share their eulogy for Schitt's Creek! -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Welcome back, Recruits! Remember how over the past few episodes, our original Morituri's kind of went against the orders of their superiors?  Ya know, potentially throwing everything away and turning traitor in the hopes that their death-sentences might be thwarted?  Well, now is the time where they're going to answer for that!  Also, a Hordian car-jacking in Detroit! Other nonsense includes: why you should always pay a few more bucks for the updated maps in your GPS, the Konami Code (which doesn't work on your GPS), classy candy-themed watches, the Marvel Try-Out Book, the latest book Ann Nocenti didn't read, the dangers of sugar, and much much more!

A lot can happen in between issues... as we're about to learn today! New characters!  New leaders!  New challenges!  All things that will face our favorite team!  Also: Death, and lots of it!  We officially say goodbye from two from our main cast... as well as a newbie who didn't even stay around to finish a cuppa coffee! It's MORITURI vs. MORITURI... and it ends the only way it can! Back-up features including The Official Handbook of the Morituri Universe, and an in depth look at the methodology behind creating characters for Strikeforce: Morituri.  If you ever wondered... wonder no more! Also: your hosts continue to lament the loss of Jim Shooter... and have some fun with the new Editor-in-Cheese!  Do you like mustard on your burger?  Which direction do you cut your sandwich?  Can you solve the Riddle of the Oxy-sphinx?  And, finally... the M*A*S*H outro we promised last week! -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Well hello there, everybody!  Believe it or not, it's safe to look forward to Monday again... well, we hope so anyway! We are happy to present the long-awaited 12th episode of Morituri Mondays here at the Chris and Reggie Channel, where we will be covering the climactic 12th issue of Strikeforce: Morituri!  Has the team turned traitor?  Are there buns in any ovens?  And what's the deal with Harold's father's hair?  We'll answer all of those questions and more!

And now back to our regularly-scheduled programming.  After a bit of a departure last issue, this time out a bit loopier than normal Chris and Chris rejoin the ranks of the Morituri and keep fighting the good fight against the dreaded Horde! After the shocking revelations of Strikeforce: Morituri #9, it's here that we begin to deal with the fallout.  Will our "One to Grow On Man" Louis take the Horde up on their offer of a cure for the Process?  What was the deal with Commander Nion collapsing on the job?  What in the hell was up with those CATS last issue?  The answers for all that... well, two of those questions... and a whole lot more are right here in this very episode! Also: A visit with a rather salty Larry Hama!

Welcome to the double-digits, friends!  And to the first issue of Strikeforce: Morituri that... well, we didn't really care for all that much!  If you were hoping for a payoff to the awesome cliffhanger from last issue... well, hmm... please listen anyway?  We promise you'll have a good time! In addition to checking out the issue, we discuss other disappointing cliffhanger moments in media, we get up close and personal with Tom DeFalco and learn about his distaste for stinky freelancers, how one of your humble hosts once dressed up as a Melmacian Alien Life Form, and much much more! Also: Casting Call!  In the grand tradition of Wizard Magazine's Casting Call, we are attempting to cast for the most kick-butt Strikeforce: Morituri feature film, and we're definitely going to need your help to get it right!   -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Greetings, fellow Weekday Warriors! Morituri Mondays is back, and we're primed to take a look at the ninth issue of Strikeforce: Morituri.  After a touching reunion with a feared-dead friend, our team has a pizza party and eventually breaks every rule in the book in order to once again try and protect a certain chocolate factory! Speaking of chocolate... today Chris and Chris conduct a most scientific challenge ever attempted.  It is the great M&Ms vs. Smarties Challenge!  Canadian Chris has American Chris try the candy of his homeland... and challenges him to "pick a side" in the bite-sized candy Civil War!  It's a story of tragedy, triumph... and cheating on a diet!  We challenge y'all to also chime in on your preferred rainbow-colored, melts in your mouth not in your hand type things! Also: Plenty of back-matter nonsense!  A Letters Page!  Bullpen Bulletins!  A Pro-File on one of the Fifty Most Eligible Bachelors in America (according to Playgirl Magazine)!  And much, much more!  It's a great time as always, give it a listen! -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Guilt-Stricken, sobbin' with our heads on the floor... today, we meet The Freshmen! That's right, gang... today we get up-close and personal with those newbies that, for the past couple of issues, have been cookin' in Dr. Tuolema's proverbial "kitchen".  Not only do we meet 'em, we accompany them on their first actual mission as part of the team... and, ho boy, it is quite the trial by fire! All that, and we also tell you how you can become: An Orange Big Shot... with Tang! A Neighborhood Ninja... with Lady Shogun Part of a club, that's made for you and me... with Em Eye See (see ya real soon...) -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Harold is dead. The team is barreling toward the Horde flagship... without their leader, without a plan, without weapons... and without a clue! Will the Strikeforce rise to the occasion... or crumble under the pressure?  It's their toughest challenge to date... and when it's all over, they might find their number dwindling even more!

For all y'all in the know... this is the big one.  For all y'all that don't... buckle in! When our Strikeforcers are sent to Holowood for a little R & R, their time off is anything but restful or relaxing!  It doesn't take long for the baddies to show their bulbous chins, and interrupt our team's attempt at tripping the light fantastic in scenic Los Anheles!  The Horde is bored, the team's going stir-crazy, Aline and Robert are losing their marbles... and we've got an ending nobody saw coming! It's a pulse (and pillow) pounding issue, make sure to hold on to your Ugly Balls! -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @acecomics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Mori-Tuesday?  Sure, why not! A day late, and a dollar short... Morituri Mondays is at it again, and this time out our team of heroes are in mourning... the lovely Lorna wound up succumbing to the strain of the Morituri Process!  The crew doesn't get to mourn for long however, as the Horde has chosen just this moment to invade the hearts, minds, and skin of suburban Illinois!  Will the team be able to fight through the paranoia of propaganda... or will they lose yet another member?! Also: Fun with Accents!  Hivemind Mentalities!  A Smarties Update!  Selling Prizes for Cash!  The final two parts of Gumby and Pokey in Gum-Dinger Land! -- Your April, 1987 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Vyking, Radian, Adept, Blackthorn, Marathon Alumni - Snapdragon (#4) -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @acecomics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Happy Monday... soon to be your favorite day of the week!  Okay, maybe not... but, never fear... Morituri Monday is here to help you muddle through! This week, the Chrises (@acecomics @Charlton_Hero) join the fledgling Strikeforce on their first actual mission!  Lemme tell ya, they're not failing to protect a chocolate factory this time around!  Our team is sent into the Soviet Union (which was apparently still a thing that existed in the not-so-far-flung future of Marvel Earth-1287!) to go head on with the Horde... and make a few discoveries about just how gruesome and cruel the alien invaders could be! Also: Some assorted chatter about our early mp3 Players/digital devices, hotel amenities, the "heelish" portrayal of Soviets during the 1980s, plus YOUR FEEDBACK! -- Your February, 1987 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Vyking, Snapdragon, Radian, Adept, Blackthorn, Marathon -- Things mentioned during the program: Protect and Survive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6U9T3R3EQg -- weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com @cosmictmill chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Are they excellent scifi comedies, disposable popcorn flicks, or a threat to all life on this planet? Annaliese Trammel, Chris Bailey (aka Charlton Hero), and Michael May drill deep into the first three Men in Black movies as well as the comics (thanks to Chris!). They talk about what works, what doesn't, and what it all could mean for Men in Black: International.

Yes... we're only four episodes in... it's another bwah-ha-ha book, but there's a special reason for that.  And really, that's not the meat and potatoes of this episode anyway.  This time out, Chris (@acecomics) is joined by another Chris... Chris Bailey (@Charlton_Hero) of the SuperHero Satellite who shares the origins of the Mighty Super-Blog Team-Up! After Chris (the usual one) discusses his first offering to #SuperBlogTeamUp, Chris (the other one) shares his comic book "secret origin"!  From his early days, reading coverless comics that missed the trash can... to his introduction to the internet comics community.  Then... the main event, from the germ of an idea of a blogging crossover, to what became the Super-Blog Team-Up! All that... plus, a special announcement!  It's a great time... check it out!
