Meet Image Comics and Marc Silvestri's answer to X-Men... well one of several answers to X-Men, but hey it's what the guy was working on when he left Marvel. Give him a break.

Coming off of a couple of issues dealing with Venom, apparently Spider-Man needs two villains and an anti-hero to make up for his iconic foe's absence. Siskoid comes on board to help with this one.

Back into the alleys of Spawn, with the one and only Frank Miller coming in to guest write the issue. Will this be an epic blending of auteurs or a total crash and burn event? Only one way to find out.

Was there anything more 90s than Marvel's 2099 run? Possibly, but it still has to be right up there. Many of the titles under 2099 faded quickly, but Spider-Man 2099 stuck around for quite a while. Host Nathaniel Wayne brings in the Irredeemable Shag to see if that was deserved.

He's dark, he's broody and an even darker and possibly broodier version of him just showed up to kick his butt. Can host Nathaniel Wayne figure out what the heck is going on with Darkhawk?

After X-Force and before his own regular series, Liefeldian embodiment Cable had a two issue mini that promised to give exciting details to his background and a pivotal confrontation. Host Nathaniel Wayne takes some aspirin and sees if these promises can be kept.

It's been over a year since Shadowhawk issues 1 & 2 were acquitted of 90s era awfulness. So with 40 episodes under his belt, will host Nathaniel Wayne be as forgiving as last time? Keep in mind that an acid drooling green insectoid alien lizard thing has been added to the mix.

It's time for some more Spider-man and this time host Nathaniel Wayne is tackling two back to back issues that wrap up the 6 part Invasion of the Spider Slayers arc. Can only the last two issues successfully give a satisfying read for somebody who doesn't have the first four? We'll find out.

The spirit of vengeance graces 90s Comics Retrial with his presence. And he's bringing along three villains, two sidekicks and a random woman in an alleyway along for the ride. Host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at whether all of this can be juggled properly.

The X-men related books so far have had the weakest showing on this podcast. Add to that, host Nathaniel Wayne's only other encounter with an "Unlimited" title was the abomination of Fantastic Four Unlimited #1. It's hard to stay optimistic, but let's see what happens.

After having to thoroughly thrash his work back in Episode 7, host Nathaniel Wayne thought he was done with Rob Liefeld. He was wrong. Can he survive this second go with the Prince of Pouches? Or will he finally snap and lose his mind? Tune in to find out!

A monstrous reptile has escaped capture. A crazed bounty hunter has kidnapped a child. An overworked photographer should REALLY be staying home to be with his wife, but instead is putting on red pajamas to deal with all of it.

Long before it was made into a video game so bad that people got sued over it (seriously,) a story about the Colonial Marines of the Aliens universe was brought forth by Dark Horse comics. It's pretty well remembered but will it hold up or was it just the best that could be gotten at the time?

As the comics jump over 100 years into the future... things don't seem to have changed much for the mutants of the world. Host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at how EXTREME the future can be with this first look at the 2099 line of books.

A cold has bumped the planned evisceration of another 90s comic so instead host Nathaniel Wayne rips into some extremely 90s print advertisements. Because it's easier and the guy's sick, cut him some slack.

Todd McFarlane's hellbound hero is back (or at least his title is back in the rotation of this podcast,) and this time McFarlane brought in some help in the form of legendary writer Alan Moore. So fittingly, host Nathaniel Wayne recruits the assistance of legendary skinflint, Professor Alan Middleton to take a look a this tour of Spawn's version of Hell.

A slight change of pace in the covering of Spider-Man as host Nathaniel Wayne takes his first look at an issue from the "Spectacular" line. One featuring the X-Men no less. What mighty villain could possible require these titans of Marvel to team up? Well give a listen and find out for yourself!

Marvel dipped into its stable of horror titles in the 90s, which saw the revival of the "Living Vampire" (which is not distinguished in any notable way from a garden variety vampire) known as Morbius. Host Nathaniel Wayne brings in Ryan Daly to see if this vamp should be allowed to stalk the night or if he should just be staked and beheaded to end the pain for everybody involved.

Host Nathaniel Wayne revisits his personal comic book collection. This time he takes a look at the odd case of X-Men comics based on the X-Men cartoon based on X-Men comics.

Writer/artist Mike Grell was one of many comics creators who were swept up in Image's promise of creator control. His contribution was Shaman's Tears and podcast host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at this odd mix of native mythology and sci-fi genetics.

Suspiciously Unsolid Wall Hello, and welcome to episode 197 of The Fantasticast. Each week, Steve Lacey and Andy Leyland guide you through every issue, guest-appearance and cameo of The Fantastic Four. In an unusual move, we're throwing our regular titles to the side, and spending this week in the weird world of Marvel's premier non-team, The Defenders. Issue 20 brings to a conclusion the plot line involving the harmonica, the Valkyrie and Destiny that has been running through the last two issues of Marvel Two-in-One, and because The Thing is along for the ride, we are too. Guided by the hands of Steve Gerber, Sal Buscema and Vince Coletta, we follow The Thing, Valkyrie, Doctor Strange and Nighthawk into the town of Cobbler's Roost, where great old ones are waiting to burst into our dimension, trapdoors are waiting to be sprung, harmonicas are waiting to be blown, husbands are waiting to be revealed, and plots are waiting to be wrapped up. Not all of these things actually happen in this book... You can find Andy's recent appearance on 90s Comics Retrial here, Steve's recent appearance on Waiting For Doom here, and we'll both be appearing on Views From The Longbox very soon.

Picking up on a thread left by the mega-sized issue #365, Spider-Man's parents have suddenly turned up and are far less dead than originally advertised. Host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at this story and sees what villainy might be afoot!

Host Nathaniel Wayne tackles one of his very few issues involving the seminal team, the Fantastic Four. But since he can't even really fake being even slightly learned on this group, he brought in one half of the Fantasticast in the form of Andrew Leyland to help. And boy, is help needed.

When you think of Wolverine's villains there's one name that undoubtedly floats to the top: Sabretooth. And in the 1993 Marvel decided to give the villain his own mini-series. Host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at the first two issues of this attempt to give a vicious killer who's literally characterized as having little personality beyond savagery his own title.

It's past time to dive back into the Image comics poster child: Todd McFarlane's Spawn! This time host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at two issues featuring that most 90s of comics staples: the oversized, overmuscled, cyborg killer. Because there's no such thing as too much EXTREME! Cover images from the comic can be found at 90scomicsretrial.wordpress.com Theme music composed and performed by Erica Driesbach, whose other works can be found at www.ericaricardo.com
It's time to revisit a villain introduced in the 80s but who blew up huge in the 90s, largely in the events that followed on from these very issues. Host Nathaniel Wayne brings in Siskoid of Siskoid's Blog of Geekery and numerous podcasts to talk about the one and only Venom. Images from the comic can be found at 90scomicsretrial.wordpress.com You can check out some of Siskoid's other podcasting works at fireandwaterpodcast.com Theme music composed and performed by Erica Driesbach, whose other works can be found at www.ericaricardo.com
Time to head back to the Dark Horse well to see what other licensed cows they're milking (mixed metaphor, change this before release.) This two part mini-series claims to take a closer look at the trials and tribulations of the child character from one of the greatest sci-fi action films in history. Can it possibly be worthy of that lineage? Let's find out. Theme music composed and performed by Erica Driesbach, whose other works can be found at www.ericaricardo.com
Reviewing X-Force #1 a while back was one of the more painful experiences of this podcast to date. So with the rest of the team and the original artist/creator removed can the character of Cable rise above his origins to be something that transcends the era in which he was created? Is the Pope a lizard? Theme music composed and performed by Erica Driesbach, whose other works can be found at www.ericaricardo.com
It's time to dive into possibly the weirdest comic to ever be allowed to finish its run: Sam Keith's The Maxx from Image Comics. Host Nathaniel Wayne, who drank the Kool-Aid on this one years ago, bring in a fresh set of eyes belonging to Kyle Benning to try and judge this as even handedly as possible. Theme music composed and performed by Erica Driesbach, whose other works can be found at www.ericaricardo.com You can find out more from Kyle at his blog: http://kingsizecomicsgiantsizefun.blogspot.com/
In a bit of a revisit to the first episode, host Nathaniel Wayne takes on another overstuffed 30th anniversary issue of Spider-Man with a holographic cover. Will it just be more of the same or will it manage to carve its own overpriced identity? Theme music composed and performed by Erica Driesbach, whose other works can be found at www.ericaricardo.com 90s Comics Retrial is a Council of Geeks production. Consider taking a look at the Council of Geeks YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/user/councilofgeeks
Host Nathaniel Wayne brings back his occasional punching bag Ryan Daly to try and take on the one of a kind creation that was Death's Head II. Can a guy who looks like badass be anything other than amazing? Well... it was the 90s so just looking badass was pretty standard and didn't always carry that much credibility. So let's find out. You can find Ryan's most popular other podcast here: http://fireandwaterpodcast.com/show/secret-origins-podcast/ And the theme music is by Erica Driesbach, whose other works can be found here: http://www.ericaricardo.com/
Host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at one of the very first comic books he ever purchased. Will it be a joyful jog down memory lane or a harsh face plant into the pavement of disappointment? Give it a listen and find out!
It's time to crack open another early Image title. This time it's the first two issues of Dale Keown's Pitt. Host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at the long haired, leather clad, razor clawed rip-off of the Incredible Hulk and sees if he can stand on his own feet or not.
Because life happens, I don't have the planned episode ready to go. So here's a bit of a fallback plan I've had for when this eventually happened. I take this episode to go over what's coming on the horizon so folks aren't hoping for me to review something that I don't have and am not planning to get to.
In the wake of the seminal Spider-Man story Kraven's Last Hunt there was some unfinished and some deep scars left behind for Spidey. Host Nathaniel Wayne brings back guest Paul Scavitto to help dissect this particularly dark chapter in the web slinger's life.
From the pages of Captain America comes Lorenzo Lamas! Oh, wait, I mean Nomad! A man without a country wandering the nation... with a baby... that isn't his... strapped to his back... even during gun fights. Can this comic book take that questionable premise and spin gold with it? Host Nathaniel Wayne dives into this first issue to answer that very question.
Can Wolverine break the X-Men related comic books' streak of convictions? Is it possible to start piecing together Logan's history without spoiling what makes him enjoyable? Is it really confusing to introduce a new bald character called "The Professor" who ISN'T the one you immediately thought of? We've brought in our very own supervillain, Alexa Luthor, to answer these very questions.
The one and only Wade Wilson, aka Deadpool, has his own movie coming out soon. So this seems like the perfect time for this podcast to jump on the bandwagon and grab whatever topical attention it can by covering his first ever solo issue. Sean McFeeley returns to dissect the first ever title to bear the name of the Merc with a Mouth.
It's time to take a look at the contribution of another founding member of Image Comics. This time it's Erik Larson and his super-powered blue collar cop: The Savage Dragon. Host Nathaniel Wayne brings in guest Jon Van Luling to see is this off kilter take on the superhero holds up.
The time has come to take on the first appearance of another icon of the 90s comics: the Spider-Man villain known as Carnage. This spin-off character, derived from the popular villain Venom, was over the top, violent without reason and snarky as all get out. In other words he was pure 90s. Host Nathaniel Wayne looks at this character's debut story arc, and hopes that Carnage can turn out to be better than his reputation.
One of the 90s staples that this podcast hasn't touched on yet is Dark Horse and its line up of movie spin off comics. Let's rectify that oversight. Host Nathaniel Wayne tackles a two issue mini-series starring the one time Schwarzenegger tormentor: The Predator. Will it slay the competition or will the hunter become the hunted?... Oh god, that was terrible.
Ryan Daly welcomes Kyle Benning, Nathaniel Wayne, and the Irredeemable Shag to a roundtable discussion about the Marvel Comics miniseries JOURNEY TO STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS: SHATTERED EMPIRE. Okay, it's not much of a roundtable discussion. In fact, it was recorded separately over two sessions and cobbled together in a nightmarish post-Thanksgiving tryptophan haze. King-Size Comics, Giant-Size Fun: http://kingsizecomicsgiantsizefun.blogspot.com 90s Comics Retrial: https://90scomicsretrial.wordpress.com Firestorm Fan: http://firestormfan.com Shattered Empire trade paperback available at In Stock Trades: http://www.instocktrades.com/TP/Marvel/STAR-WARS-TP-JOURNEY-TO-SW-FORCE-AWAKENS-SHATTER-EMPIRE/AUG150915
Host Nathaniel Wayne brings in fellow podcaster Ryan Daly, in the hope that buddying up will save both their lives and their sanity as they dive into possible the definitive work from the definitive 1990s comic book creator. Rob Liefeld's X-Force #1!
Every comic book line up needs an on the street style superhero. Marvel has Daredevil, DC has Batman (or more accurately the Bat Family because the Man himself is just as likely to be in space,) and Image put in their two cents with Shadowhawk. Host Nathaniel Wayne takes a look at the first two issues of Jim Valentino's creation and sees if it's worthy of the company it's seeking or if it slips and breaks its own spine.
This stand alone issue of Web of Spider-Man tries to give a new spin on the Shocker. However it's so insecure about its story that it splits the cover between that and the prologue for the next issue, and throws in a more EXTREME hero than Spidey for good measure. Host Nathaniel Wayne brings along Sean McFeeley for this one.
If there is a phrase to encapsulate the 1990s when it comes to comic books, that phrase would probably be "over the top." However there were few character who embraced and ran with that notion with as much brazen abandon as DC's Lobo. The interstellar bounty hunter with a bad attitude received a special #0 issue as part of DC's Zero Hour event and host Nathaniel Wayne brought along guest Paul Scavitto to help take a look at this one of a kind character.
Now that the trailer for THE FORCE AWAKENS has been out for two days, Ryan Daly and guest Nathaniel Wayne from COUNCIL OF GEEKS analyze and scrutinize the footage in greater depth. 90s Comics Retrial page: https://90scomicsretrial.wordpress.com
This episode of 90s Comics Retrial delves into the single best selling comic book issue in history and it's immediate follow up, from the all star team of Chris Claremont and Jim Lee. Can any comic book possibly live up to that level of hype, especially ones from the 1990s? Let's find out.
This episode of 90s Comics Retrial takes on one of the most prominent and divisive figures and characters of the era: Todd McFarlane and Spawn. The man doesn't have a sterling reputation, and neither does the character at this point. But how does that first issue actually hold up when all the latter day baggage is stripped away? Let's find out.
This first episode of 90s Comics Retrial takes a look at a holographic covered Giant Sized 30th Anniversary issue of everybody's favorite webslinger. Will the actual contents live up to the cover? Well, it's the 1990s we're talking about, so take a wild guess.
