Continuing the "journey" of Chris is on Infinite Earths! Chris never really wanted to start a blog... and with this episode, he can (kinda) prove it!  Justice League #1 (1987) originally appeared on chrisisoninfiniteearths.com on New Year's Day, 2017... though, it was originally supposed to hit the internet on New Year's Day, 2015 at the Bwa-Ha-Blog! (which never became a thing). Ya see, it was something of a New Year's Day tradition for Chris to start (and abandon) a brand-new blog... so much for that Resolution to "write more"!  Two years (and a whole new blog) later, this discussion of Justice League #1 would finally be completed. Hope you enjoy these brief "visits", and appreciate you joining me in these self-indulgent looks back at the Life and Times of Chris is on Infinite Earths! -- Includes Promo for the Justice League International: Bwah-Ha-Ha Podcast! -- Original Post: https://www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/2017/01/justice-league-1-1987.html -- You can get a hold of us at weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com -- For our weekly writings check out www.weirdsciencedccomics.com For Chris' daily writings check out www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com -- Check out www.weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com for show notes! -- Visit us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CosmicTMillHistory and on Twitter @CosmicTMill -- Subscribe to the show on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, iHeartRadio... wherever's most convenient!

It's so hard to say goodbye... and that's exactly what we do during this episode.  Two of our Young Animal pals draw to their conclusion this time around.  Carry on, Cave... See ya, Shade.  It's not a "forever farewell", however... because there's something called "Milk Wars" on the horizon. In addition to sayin' ciao... we actually have a full line up!  That almost never happens!

Our Young Animal revisit has officially reached "the staples"!  That's right, we are halfway through our planned 18-episode look at the pop-up imprint that could! This week... It's really one'a them "Good News, Bad News" situations... ya see, after a few months... we finally get that next issue of Doom Patrol.  Thing of it is... it kinda smells like filler.  It looks great though... and gives us our Allred-fix, which is a good thing, since Bug! took the month off! In addition to that issue of Doom Patrol, we will be discussing the penultimate issues of Shade and Cave... Mother Panic shows up too!

Welcome everyone to the first episode of Chris is on Infinite Earths! Today we are looking at Secret Origins #1 from 1986... which was originally discussed over at chrisisoninfiniteearths.com on January 31, 2017 (the site's first "bloggiversary"). This is a bit of a self-indulgent episode wherein not only will we look at the "Secret Origin" of the Golden-Age Superman... but of the Chris is on Infinite Earths blog!

Change is in the air for the plucky pop-up imprint that could (or, could it?). Word on the street is that there's a hiatus on the horizon... of course, using our 2018-vision, we know what that's all about... however, in the Summer of 2017... we hadn't the foggiest idea what this might mean for our Young Animal pals! This week features four segments (you'll never guess which book is missing!), which originally aired during the following episodes of the Weird Science DC Comics Podcast: Episode 130 (07.02.2017) - Mother Panic #8 Episode 131 (07.09.2017) - Shade the Changing Girl #10 Episode 132 (07.16.2017) - Bug!

Greetings, Dangerous Humans!  As we are currently in what might just be the final month of DC's Young Animal imprint, your Young and Animalistic hosts, Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) thought it might be fun to share with you their initial thoughts on the launch!  In this extra-sized (or, over-sized) episode they look at all four "number one" issues.  Since the Young Animal launch was staggered from September-November, 2016... there are also a couple of "non-number one" reviews in there as well. Head back with us into the not-so-distant past... and relive some Young Animal memories.  Learn just how much we initially hated Mother Panic, and how over the Moon we were with Doom Patrol and Shade the Changing Girl... boy, how that changed!  Feel free to follow along at home... let's send the Young Animal imprint into the sunset with a smile. ***Warning: We might be a little bit looser with our language during these episodes -- These segments originally aired during the Weird Science DC Comics Podcast during the Following Episodes: Episode 89 (09.18.2016) - Doom Patrol #1 Episode 92 (10.09.2016) - Shade the Changing Girl #1 Episode 93 (10.16.2016) - Doom Patrol #2 Episode 94 (10.23.2016) - Cave Carson Has a Cybernetic Eye #1 Episode 96 (11.06.2016) - Shade the Changing Girl #2 Episode 97 (11.13.2016) - Doom Patrol #3 and Mother Panic #1 -- You can get a hold of us at weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com -- For our weekly writings check out www.weirdsciencedccomics.com For Chris' daily writings check out www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com -- Check out www.weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com for show notes! -- Visit us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CosmicTMillHistory and on Twitter @CosmicTMill -- Subscribe to the show on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, iHeartRadio... wherever's most convenient!

Order in the court!  (Ham and Cheese) For their final installment of "Exploring the Mysteries of Miracleman", your favorite legal eagles Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) don their long robes and powdered wigs and do their darnedest to figure out just who owns Marvelman! They will discuss the wheelings and dealings of one Spawny fellow... and spend far too much time discussing the characters of Angela, Cogliostro, and Medieval Spawn... but they promise it all (mostly) fits the story. Overall, it's an hour and change of audio likely to make you even more curious and confused about Marvelman, and just how his story finally "shook out". -- You can get a hold of us at weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com -- For our weekly writings check out www.weirdsciencedccomics.com For Chris' daily writings check out www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com -- Check out www.weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com for show notes! -- Visit us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CosmicTMillHistory and on Twitter @CosmicTMill -- We're also now on YouTube... just search "weirdcomicshistory" (all one word) and you ought to be able to find us! -- Subscribe to the show on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, iHeartRadio... wherever's most convenient!

There comes a time when everybody has to leave home... and that's no different for our new friend Marvelman, who, during this episode makes the trek across the Atlantic, and starts getting published stateside by Eclipse Comics.  Not before a little tweak in his title though. For their middle installment of Exploring the Mysteries of MarveREDACTED... let's try that again.  Exploring the Mysteries of MarREDACTED.  Hmm... okay, we'll do it their way... For this installment of Exploring the Mysteries of Miracleman, Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) discuss more growing pains than a house full of Seavers when they continue their long-form look at our Kimota-shouting hero.  This week they will set the stage for the domestic (if you live in the United States) arrival (and sorta-kinda revival) of Miracleman... and briefly discuss the remaining Alan Moore run as well as the still unfinished Neil Gaiman run. Then... they start getting into the nitty-gritty, and really the "meat and potatoes" of any real Miracleman discussion... the rights!  Welcome to the story, Mr. McFarlane... hope you survive the experience!

You ever have a Dream of Flying?  Join Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) as they dive deep into the world of Marvelman.  From his humble beginnings as a British replacement for a certain Big Red Cheese, to the stories people actually care about (ie. those written by Alan Moore, er we mean "The Original Writer". We will be sharing this crazy story over the next three installments.  This time around you will be introduced to the reasons behind Marvelman's creation, we'll introduce you to his creator Mick Anglo... and discuss the move from Silver Age silliness to cynical 80's grittiness (including a purposely brief synopsis of the WARRIOR Magazine run... because we really don't want to "spoil" that for our dear listeners). It's a fun-filled hour of chatter... and we don't even get to the lawsuit yet!  The... other lawsuit... the other, other lawsuit. -- You can get a hold of us at weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com -- For our weekly writings check out www.weirdsciencedccomics.com For Chris' daily writings check out www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com For our half-hearted blog/image depository check out www.weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com - Currently featuring pictoral evidence of EVERY (to our knowledge) pre-Crisis appearance of the enigmatic Monitor! -- Visit us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CosmicTMillHistory and on Twitter @CosmicTMill -- Subscribe to the show on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, iHeartRadio, Spotify, YouTube... wherever's most convenient!

Another week... another episode from the "completionist collection".  Hey, if you've never listened to Cosmic Treadmill, Episode 25 (and shame on you, if that's the case) this one's New To You! Take a trip back with Reggie (@reggiereggie) and Chris (@acecomics) to the days when the Titans took in the traitorous Terra!  They run down all of her appearances leading up to her betrayal... and go longform on the Judas Contract event.  After that, they chatter on about Terra's legacy... and at least one of them pops a few blood vessels at the very thought that she'd ever be brought back.  Jokes on him, many times over by this point! -- You can get a hold of us at weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com -- For our weekly writings check out www.weirdsciencedccomics.com For Chris' daily writings check out www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com Check out www.weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com -- Follow us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CosmicTMillHistory and on Twitter @CosmicTMill Subscribe to our YouTube Channel at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfLH6ede52KW6HwBdyHIUkA -- Subscribe to the show on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, iHeartRadio... wherever's most convenient!

Happy belated Valentine's Day folks... today Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) deliver a gift in the form of... well, the gift Terry Long wanted to give to Donna Troy... namely, finding out just who in the world she is! We know what you're thinking... "Didn't we already get this one as part of Teen Titans Medley?" and the answer is, yes.  Unfortunately one of your Cosmic Treadmillers is a bit obsessive about the numbering (we won't reveal which one), and so you're getting it all by its lonesome.  Join us for a half-hour and revisit this beloved classic story. -- Originally aired in segment form during Weird Science DC Comics Podcast, Episode 80 (July 17, 2016) -- You can get a hold of us at weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com -- For our weekly writings check out www.weirdsciencedccomics.com For Chris' daily writings check out www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com Check out www.weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com -- Visit us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CosmicTMillHistory and on Twitter @CosmicTMill Also, now on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfLH6ede52KW6HwBdyHIUkA -- Subscribe to the show on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, iHeartRadio... wherever's most convenient!

C'mon get happy everybody!  For this week's "classic" re-upload, flower children Reggie (@reggiereggie) and Chris (@acecomics) discuss the year in comics... 1968!  This isn't so much an "according to them" sorta show, considering that neither of the fellas had yet graced the planet with their presence... however, with the benefit of hindsight (and the internet) they break down all the big news in the comics biz.

Reading a comic book... then discussing it on the air, how hard could that be? Well, Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) found out the first couple of times they tried recording this... without anything resembling a script or shownotes!  Fortunately, gentle listener... that's not the version you're going to be (hopefully) downloading today.

Booster Gold, created by Chris' very good friend Dan Jurgens (I hear they once took a picture together... just ask Chris, he'll tell ya!). It's a fun-filled half-hour of 80's excess... fashion... pop-culture... and horrible impressions of cultural icons Yakov Smirnoff and Balki Bartokomous.  Also, Booster Gold's in there somewhere!  Listen in and see how far we've (hopefully) come! -- Twitter Poll Results: 15% - Sandman #6 (24 Hours) 58% - Booster Gold #1 (1986) 27% - The World of Krypton (1979) From 53 votes!  Thank you to everyone who voted and shared! -- Originally aired in segment form during Weird Science DC Comics Podcast, Episode #78 (July 3, 2016) -- You can get a hold of us at weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com -- For our weekly writings check out www.weirdsciencedccomics.com For Chris' daily writings check out www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com For our half-hearted blog/image depository check out www.weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com -- Visit us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CosmicTMillHistory and on Twitter @CosmicTMill -- Subscribe to the show on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play... wherever's most convenient!

That sound you just heard was that of a bubble bursting!  What goes up, must come down... even in the world of comics.  Much of this "coming down" just happened to occur in the year 1995.  Our time-trapped twosome deliver another heaping dollop of nostalgia when they chat about things like the O.J. Simpson murder case, Sony PlayStaton, WCW Monday Nitro... and even some comic books! Comic events discussed include X-Men: The Age of Apocalypse, The Death of Aunt May, DC vs. Marvel (or Marvel vs. DC if you prefer),  Marvel's attempt to self-distribute their books... which led to our current Diamond monopoly... and the most devastating thing to happen that year, Chris walking away from comics for awhile.  It's a sobering tale of a boy and his lunch money... Throughout this re-upload, Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) mention an episode of Cosmic Treadmill they were researching during this time.  The episode in question is #24 (January 15, 2017) where they discuss the Spider-Man Clone Saga.  It is available in the archives.  Share your own stories from 1995 with us... unless you weren't born yet, that'll just make us feel really bad about ourselves... we'll probably begin questioning our life decisions as well...

By popular demand!  In the first poll-winning re-upload, Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) learn that war is hell (and strange!) when they read and discuss Weird War Tales #6 from 1972.  This special book was a request by good friend Deron Murphree who cites this as his first comic book, and was actually the final installment to originally be a segment on the Weird Science DC Comics Podcast! From this point on, our Treadmillers would break off and go solo... and it's during this very episode that you can listen to their "Request Rules"... which were abandoned almost immediately, so disregard them when you hear 'em!  Imagine the Cosmic Treadmill only discussing a single comic every (other) week... p'shaw! -- Thanks to Deron Murphree for the request!

Memorial Day, 2011.  It's reported that DC Comics is rebooting their universe and going forward under the branding "The New-52!"  Do you remember where you were when you heard the news?  Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) do!  This week's classic reupload is their discussion of The New-52!, their feelings on hearing the news, what they felt worked... and what didn't!  Don't worry, this isn't a total DC-chat, Marvel wasn't going to let them get away with bombarding the shops with new #1's... that's their gig!  Our semi-recentstorians also discuss Marvel rebooting their last remaining Silver-Age "legacy numbered" title, Uncanny X-Men.  They wrap up their conversation by discussing the passing of industry legend, Dwayne McDuffie.   Also, Did you know:  DC Comics didn't officially drop from the Comics Code Authority until 2011?  Neither did Archie!   -- Have any memories of the year 2011?  Is it too soon to be nostalgic?  Let us know!

We got... two tickets to Oa(dice), pack your rings we leave tonight! Substitute Lanterns Reggie (@reggiereggie) and Chris (@acecomics) take you on a tour of one man's perceived failure when they (briefly) share the tragic tale of Emerald Twilight.  In the wake of Coast City's destruction, Hal Jordan ain't quite feeling himself... after an abuse of power gets the attention of the Guardians of the Universe, they decide it might be time to have a chat with the protector of Sector 2814... a decision that they will likely regret... should they live so long. In addition to covering the issues, our historians discuss the controversy both before... and after the story went to print.  What was Gerard Jones' original plan for the leadup to Green Lantern (vol.3) #50?  What does the A in H.E.A.T. stand for?  Are there any potential back-doors out of crossing Jordan...'s rubicon?  What the heck is a Malvolio?  Did the fellas use a lot of this information in their Green Lantern (vol.3) #51 episode???  Listen and find out! (Note: At around five minutes in, Chris posits that the Guardians may have been influenced by "The Signalmen"... which isn't even a thing!  He meant to say "Lensman"... and we aren't sure what that is either!) -- ***Originally aired in segment form during Weird Science DC Comics Podcast, Episode #82 (July 31, 2016) -- You can get a hold of us at weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com -- For our weekly writings check out www.weirdsciencedccomics.com For Chris' daily writings check out www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com For our half-hearted blog/image depository check out www.weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com - Currently featuring pictoral evidence of EVERY (to our knowledge) pre-Crisis appearance of the enigmatic Monitor! -- Visit us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CosmicTMillHistory and on Twitter @CosmicTMill -- Subscribe to the show on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play... wherever's most convenient!

There's an old saying that Pop-Culture is never as good as when you were 12 years old.  We're going to put that to the test today with this reupload of Real Comics History!  Reggie (@reggiereggie) and Chris (@acecomics) discuss the year 1992, when Chris was a lad of only 12. Topics of conversation include the Death of Superman, the world's lamest Paul Revere, Image Comics, Rob Lee-Field (maaaaaan), speculation, trading cards, Wizard Magazine, and much much more.  It's a fun chat, and we hope you enjoy!

What would you do if you were given the opportunity to sacrifice yourself for the lives of people you don't even know?  In this reupload, Chris (@acecomics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) bow their heads to bid farewell to the World's Strangest Heroes as they shuffle (or blast!) off this mortal coil to save the lives of 14 complete strangers living in Codsville, Maine.  They also discuss some of the behind the scenes shenanigans leading up to this issue regarding the mysterious (or, not so mysterious) omission of Doom Patrol co-creator Arnold Drake! (Please note that around the four-minute mark, we refer to Arnold Drake and Leslie Waller's merged pen name (on It Rhymes With Lust) as Leslie Drake... when it was actually credited to Drake Waller) Whoops!  Wea culpa! -- ***Originally aired as a segment during Weird Science DC Comics Podcast, Episode #90 (September 25, 2016) -- You can get a hold of us at weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com -- For our weekly writings check out www.weirdsciencedccomics.com For Chris' daily writings check out www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com For our half-hearted blog/image depository check out www.weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com - Currently featuring pictoral evidence of EVERY (to our knowledge) pre-Crisis appearance of the enigmatic Monitor! -- Visit us on Facebook at: www.facebook.com/CosmicTMillHistory and on Twitter @CosmicTMill -- Subscribe to the show on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play... wherever's most convenient!

To coincide with the Cosmic Treadmill's (ongoing) 50th Podiversary Crisis on Infinite Earths extravaganza, Reggie (@reggiereggie) and Chris (@acecomics) have decided to dive a bit deeper and discuss the DC Comics (pre-Crisis) Multiverse... like, all of it!  They will discuss the "main Earths" most fans already know about, while also covering the nearly one-hundred that were added after the fact in Crisis on Infinite Earths: The Absolute Edition (2005). Don't worry about commiting the name of that book to memory, you're likely to hear it a time or two during the show! Prepare to learn about the skatey-eight hundred times Superman and Lois Lane got married and had children... marvel at the thought of Superman and Batman acting as villains while Lex Luthor plays the hero.  Just Imagine a world where all coffee is decafinated and Superboy wears red instead of blue... okay, we made that last one up.  Listen as we spoil more formerly "imaginary stories" than you can shake a chunk of Red-K at... and much, much more! -- Did we leave any of the "infinite Earths" out?  Are there any you'd like for us to expand upon?  Please reach out!   Any listener-theories?  We'd love to hear'em!
