Episode 12 - Murdock and Marvel: 1974 Well, here we are in 1974, when Richard Nixon leaves the White House in shame in real life even as he is shown to be leading a secret criminal organization in the Marvel universe. The economy is a mess, crime is up, and comics are affected in all sorts of ways. Preshow Reminder about Dan and Sienna's C2E2 Panel Saturday, April 27th from 10:30am – 11:30am. Room S405-B The Year in Comics The Big Stories Shazam Winners (final year) Comic Fan Art Awards (formerly Goethe Awards) The Year in Marvel Marvel published 86 different titles in 1974, including 9 new quarterly “Giant-Size” books, resulting in anywhere from 31 to 50 different Marvel titles hitting the stands each month. New Titles (and lots of reprints) Series Ending New Characters Big Moments Who's in the Bullpen ROOKIE OF THE YEAR: George Perez The Year in Daredevil Appearances: Daredevil #107-116, Man-Thing #1, Marvel Two-in-One #3, Marvel Team-Up #25 Steve Gerber (writer) and William Robert (Bob) Brown (art) were the main creative pair for most of the year. Sal Buscema on art in Marvel 2-in-1. Gene Colan returned to go art on #112 and #116. Captain Marvel comes to the aid of Daredevil and Black Widow in their attempt to take down Kerwin Broderick and his Terrex. But it is Moon Dragon amplifying Angar's powers that trap the Terrex in a black void where it is killed along with Broderick. During all this we learn that Captain O'Hara's brother has died in Africa Next Daredevil takes on the Beetle while Moon Dragon hangs out at the Daredevil/Black Widow Mansion. Daredevil then heads back to New York after hearing about an assassination attempt on Foggy Nelson. We also learn Foggy has a sister named Candice. We learn the Beetle was hired by the Black Spectre criminal organization who are looking to overthrow the US government and attempt to forcefully recruit Daredevil and Black Widow to their cause. In the 2-in-1, Daredevil and Thing board the Black Spectre Zeppelin in an attempt to confront their leader, but it doesn't go well and they have to flee. Daredevil is finally able to unmask the Black Spectre leader and it's an apish mutant known as the Mandrill. Shanna and Daredevil are captured by another hired villain, Silver Samurai, and brought back to the Zepplin where they find Black Widow has also been kidnapped and is being mind controlled. The final showdown with Mandrill and Black Spectre comes in Washington D.C. at the White House after Daredevil is able to snap Black Widow from her mind control. Black Widow and Shanna are able to defeat Nekra when she's distracted by the explosion and Daredevil defeats Mandrill on the white house roof after he falls – but no body of the mutant is found. Next Matt Murdock/Daredevil go to Florida in search of Gladiator and Candice Nelson – whom he kidnapped. The trail takes him to the Everglades where he finds Candice but also Death Stalker – whom hired Gladiator to get the project notes. Death Stalker captures Daredevil but the Man-Thing intervenes which ultimately saves Daredevil from the Gladiator. Death Stalker heads to New York and tries to lure Murdock/Daredevil into a trap with the help of Foggy Nelson, but it doesn't go as planned and Death Stalker escapes. Foggy and Matt hide Candice at Matt's hotel. A final confrontation takes place in a chemical plant with Daredevil using his Billy Club to know Death Stalker into a vat of acid (along with the project notes). The year ends with Daredevil returning to San Francisco to help Black Widow and her financial woes, but the pair are attacked and defeated by the Owl. He loads the unconscious heroes on his chopper so he can deal with them as he sees fit.

You can find more about them and their music at https://pixabay.com/users/lesfm-22579021/. The Grand Comics Database: Dan uses custom queries against a downloadable copy of the GCD to construct his publisher, title and creator charts. Comichron: Our source for comic book sales data. Man Without Fear: Kuljit Mithra's Daredevil site contains a staggering collection of resources about our hero, including news, interviews and comic details. The American Comic Book Chronicles: Published by TwoMorrows, these volumes provide an excellent analysis of American comics through the years. Because these volumes break down comic history by year and decade they are a great place to get a basic orientation on what is happening across the comic industry at a particular point in time. Joshua and Jamie Do Daredevil: A fantastic podcast that does a deep-dive into Daredevil comics. This ran from 2018-2020, and covered most of the first volume of Daredevil, and was a fun way to get an in-depth look at each issue of Daredevil from 1-377. My Marvelous Year: This is a reading-club style podcast where Dave Buesing and friends chose important or interesting books from a particular year to read and discuss. This helped me remember some fun and crazy stories, and would be a great companion piece to Murdock and Marvel for those who want more comic-story-specific coverage. BOOKLIST The following books have been frequently used as reference while preparing summaries of the comic history segments of our show. Each and every one comes recommended by Dan for fans wanting to read more about it! Licari, Fabio and Marco Rizzo. Marvel: The First 80 Years: The True Story of a Pop-Culture Phenomenon. London: Titan Books, 2020. This book is sort of a mess, as the print quality is terrible, and Titan doesn't even credit the authors unless you check the fine print. It's like this was published by Marvel in the early 60s! But the information is good, and it is presented in an entertaining fashion. So its decent, but I would recommend you see if you can just borrow it from the library instead of purchasing. Wells, John. American Comic Book Chronicles: 1960-1964. Raleigh: Two Morrows, 2015. Not cheap, but a fantastic series that is informative and fun to read. Wright, Bradford. Comic Book Nation: The Transformation of Youth Culture in America. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2001. This is the revised edition. Marvel Year By Year: A Visual History. New York: DK Publishing, 2022. The academic in my rails at using information from any work that doesn't have an author credit, but this is a decent (if very surface) look at each year in the history of Timely / Marvel from 1939 to 2021. Cowsill, Alan et al. DC Comics Year by Year: A Visual History. New York: DK Publishing, 2010. Because its nice to occasionally take a peek at what the Distinguished Competition is up to. Dauber, Jeremy. American Comics: A History. New York, W.W. Norton & Company, 2022. An excellent, relatively compact history of the domestic comic industry from its 19th century origins through to recent 21st century developments. An excellent successor to Bradford Wright's Comic Book Nation.
Už babička mi vykládala, že jsou straky děsné zlodějky, ukradnou všechno, co se třpytí. Nabádala mě, že nesmím nikdy nechat na zahradě třeba prstýnek z kočičího zlata. Bylo to o to legračnější, že v té době byly straky v Československu ptáci téměř mytičtí. My děti jsme je nikdy neviděly.Všechny díly podcastu Glosa Plus můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

New series....Continuing story.....sort of.... But let's talk about this awesome cover! I mean, I am a sucker for 80's movies, and there is no more 80's movie than a John Hughes movie....Holla if you hear me! Oh, you are a little preocupied to answer right now. I understand. This is a little more complex than your normal comic, what with it dealing with......uhm...hey....I think I know what he was looking at in that picture. Fine, throw a disk in my eye, see if I care. Let me get back to talking about addiction and recovery. We have some former super-hero kids that are trying to not wear the tights anymore and trying to get over their trauma of the drama of their youth. But why do we, your silly bearded boys care? Because of Julie Power. We love our flying girl and her pink onesie and her bookish ways.....What's that? Seventeen....actress...halter tops and low ride jeans....blond hair.....Nope....Nope this is not going to do at all. Wait....that is her flying!!! BURN THE EYES! OK. The cleansing is done. On with the goofy narrative and derivative non sequiturs. How about seamstresses? We do not appreciate the work they do or the skills they have creating the clothes we wear. Let's just take a moment to review an average Marvel character on the street and evaluate their clothing choices. How about Nekra? Wow.....That is a choice. I mean, don't ya get cold....or ever run out of double sided tape? Just have to take a minute to stare and ponder that costume for a bit.... I am getting tired of getting hit with things or blasted with Darkhawks purple beam of purpleness. I do not have to take it, and neither do you nice people. Run away while you still can! And that was the story of how I killed all of our listeners. Don't forget to support us on Patreon, https://www.patreon.com/JeffandRickPresent.

Alex (Thor's kin podcast ) joins Jessie in Evil Women Week discussing a person that seems allergic to clothes and loves hate.
I sit down & talk to Kaila Stone. It's a long one but it's brilliant! You may know of her as a mainstay of the London punk scene. You may know her from playing in bands like Nekra, Self Defense Family, ten speed bicycle & so many more. You may even know her from playing football for the Goldsmiths Uni's team! We talk about how she got into punk rock, realising she didn't want to go out drinking she wanted to stay indoors playing Sims, how she started playing music and where it's taken her since.. * Spoiler * it's taken her all over the world, making friends and playing shows. Let me know what you thought of this episode, we are @culturefear in all the regular places. Subscribe & review. Catch you next month x
SORRY SO TARDY...I WAS ON VACATION. (-Jason) I guess we finally get to the bottom of this whole "which brother is actually my brother" thing, but the only fighting we witness is fighting the urge to scream at the creators for all of these flashbacks. Oh, and most of the bad guys escape anyway.
We're taking a detour for a convoluted story about brothers and zombies and lots and lots of flashbacks. The West Coast Avengers battle Ultron and oceans. Vision and Scarlet Witch go house hunting and learn to drive. Did I mention zombies? Oh yes. That too.
There's a lot of single-word named artists this week. We kick off with one of them - DUDS from Manchester are the first UK band to release a record through John Dwyer's Castle Face Records. We have punk from Impalers and newcomers Nekla, experimental dub from Time Cow, techno from Wilhelm via new label GlassTalk Records, and loads more good stuff. Tracklisting: DUDS - Elastic Feel (Castle Face Records, USA) Colleen - Separating (Thrill Jockey, USA) Impalers - Nazi Burning Man (Static Sho

Your presenters got some spinners and because they're simpletons they're obsessed with them, they talk about them a little bit in this podcast... this NEW MUSIC PODCAST. Luckily the music is real good, what with two songs sounding like that post Nico Velvet Underground stuff from My Teenage Stride and Big French, some mind-melding hip hop from Psymun featuring Chester Watson, Indonesian stoner rock from Mooner, punk from Nekra and some of that country folk from Trummors. Take a listen to these craze jumping children and enjoy the tunes.

In Episode 102 of CEREBRO, Connor and fan favorite guest Jordan Blok pay homage to Nekra, Priestess of Hate! Created by Steve Gerber and Ross Andru as a nemesis for jungle heroine Shanna the She-Devil, mutant radical Nekra Sinclair instead became a recurring threat to the broader Marvel Universe. After moving to the X-Men franchise during Matt Fraction's 21st century tenure, she has found new prominence (and new dignity) in the Krakoa Era as one of the protagonists of Victor LaValle and Leonard Kirk's Sabretooth and its sequel Sabretooth and the Exiles.The CEREBRO character file on Nekra begins at 1:53:10.(Content Advisory: This episode discusses some very racist stories.
