Welcome to our second installment of our Deep Dive series on all the awesome albums celebrating their 40th anniversary i.e. from '84. This week we're looking at Rush's "Grace Under Pressure". This was a divisive effort as the legendary trio shifted from 70s prog to a more 80s look and sound. This album didnt spend a lot of time on our turntables. So we enlisted the services of our resident Rush connoisseur Mark Buell. Mr. Buell plys his trade with Connect Humanity, an organization dedicated to bring the internet to communities facing that challenge. So we put our heads together to straighten out all the whys and wherefores of this amazing record. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss "The Godfather" film and hail the return of "The Savage Sword of Conan" magazine. Musically, we crank some new + used from Razor, Vulture, Stretch Marks, Horndal, Convict (Can), Corpus Vile and Antichrist Siege Machine. And in our "Indie Spotlight" we spin long defunct Canadian punkers D.A.C. Horns Up!

It seems like we are living in a Conan the Barbarian Renaissance. Just over the past month, we had the latest issue of Titan's outstanding Conan the Barbarian color comic, the debut of the new Savage Sword of Conan and the Conan Chronicles, a mammoth collection of the two films, hours of extra and a book, all brought to you in 4K by Arrow. It was inevitable that Karl and I sat down and discuss all of this action.   Intro:    “All of the Dark Things” – Mike Hill Outro:  “The Death of Rexor” – Basil Poledouris

I can't help but see some parallels! How did your work on that series about a girl gang with a badass lead vocalist prepare you for Birds of Prey?With a few issues under your belt at this point, I'm sure, is there a character that floats to the top of most fun to write? Follow up, who is a character that surprises you the most?We all know Leonardo Romero and Jordie Bellaire are gosh darn gifts to the comics community. Were there particular visual moments that impressed you or surprised you in the first issue or two that you'd like to shout out?Something that always impresses me is your dialogue, particularly with groups! I've come to learn after interviewing different writers the approach to writing good dialogue can be different. Is there a particular technique you use in writing dialogue, or feeling out how different characters will approach one another?We're greatly enjoying Black Cloak at AIPT, which presents a fully realized new world. How do you approach worldbuilding? Is there a Black Cloak Bible? (Folks should definitely check out the finale next week.)You also have The Cull coming out from Image Comics on August 16th, described as horrifying and delightful with a group even the press release calls reminiscent of the Goonies. When creating an entirely new friend group, how do you go about crafting their personalities and making them a unit, but separate?Anything else you'd like to promote today? Where can people find you?

It's the first episode! And I'm already doing a little cleaning. Basically this time around I get the concept of the show out of the way before jumping into the good stuff. First there's a bit of history of Conan the Barbarian, before getting to our featured story, "One Night at the Maul" from Savage Sword of Conan #99 by Marvel Comics, cover dated April 1984.

Barbarians of Lemuria may not be as old as some of the other games and monsters I've had on the podcast, but it perfectly captures the heroic "Savage Sword of Conan" feel of old school games. Expect multiple careers, a huge enemy body count, and spells of the Second Magnitude. It's time to head into the dense jungle, enter the ziggurat tomb of the ancient king, and take his stuff. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/brian860/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/brian860/support
