Podcasts about first issue special

In April of 1976, DC Comics attempted to bring back Jack Kirby's Fourth World characters using their First Issue Special title as a test launch. This week we discuss that non-Kirby New Gods story with Lego master, comic collector, musician, & Kirby super-fan ADAM JAMES! We have thoughts…    You can check out Adam's collection AND his Lego creations on his Instagram: @4thworldadam There, you'll also find a link to check out his Lycantones Bandcamp page!

Our ridiculous podcast goes from the Sublime to the Sublime with a new project - covering Grant Morrison's DOOM PATROL. We begin with the first half (DOOM PATROL volume 2 #19 and #20) of Morrison's inaugural 4-part tale, "Crawling From the Wreckage". Keep your beautiful bits about you and watch out for falling appliances, dear friends! Errata - Elise wants everyone to know that she is very well aware that George Perez did that late-80s WONDER WOMAN series without the Wolfman, and Dave is just mortified that he mixed up FIRST ISSUE SPECIAL and SHOWCASE for a little while there... Theme song: The Revelators - "Don't Look at me When I'm Looking at You"   You can always write us at anotherkindofdistance@gmail.com, or contact us through our Facebook Page or our Twitter accounts @milescoverdale and @rhodaAF709  We're on all of the podcast delivery services, including iTunes, TuneIn radio and Stitcher, so please rate/review us there, if you can! Finally, as suggested by listener Jay, here's an Amazon link to Dave's time travel novel, Hypocritic Days (published by Insomniac Press), which is set in the pulp magazine and film worlds of the early 1930s. Please do let us know if you check it out.
