¡ATENCIÓN! ¡LA TIERRA NECESITA VOLUNTARIOS PARA DEFENDERLA DE LOS SALVAJES INVASORES ALIENÍGENAS! ¡SEAN VOLUNTARIOS PARA EL PROCEDIMIENTO MORITURI Y RECIBAN FABULOSOS SÚPERPODERES! (Letra chica: una vez sometidos al tratamiento, tendrán como mucho un año de vida, pudiendo morir horriblemente en cualquier momento y sin previo aviso.) Flor de trato, ¿verdad? Así funciona la cosa en Strikeforce: Morituri, un Ni El Loro de comics salidos de la mente de Peter B. Gillis y Brent Anderson, publicado por Marvel entre 1986 y 1989, coexistiendo con o cerca de obras maestras como Crisis On Infinite Earths, The Dark Knight Returns, Watchmen, Swamp Thing, o los X-Men de Chris Claremont en pleno auge. En el siglo 21 (que lejano), la Tierra ha sido invadida por una horda de extraterrestres sanguinarios, y todo parece perdido, hasta que un científico inventa un procedimiento para crear soldados súperhumanos. Solo hay dos problemas; los poderes son al azar, y te van a matar en menos de un año... si es que no morís en batalla antes. Eze y MaGnUs hacen la RE: seña de este comic que mezcla ciencia ficción bélica y superhéroes, pero que pocos conocen, y menos gente aún ha leído. Con música de AC/DC, y Santos Inocentes. Próximo programa: What We Do In The Shadows (T6) / Star Trek - Lower Decks (T5).

Our monthly Previews episode hits comic coming attractions for the New Year with recommendations on titles shipping mostly in January 2025! To help us this episode, we are joined by Tricia and DJ of Made By Tricia pet toys and gifts, one of the many sponsors for our 20th Anniversary event. We spend time learning about their business, holiday items for the listeners, as well as their own geek history. And then DJ continues with the Speakers of Geek to suggest and discuss comics by James Tynion IV, the new Aquaman title, debating the art of Mike Allred, Archie is Mr. Justice, Vagabond, Spectregraph, Power Lords, SilverHawks, New Champions, the Strikeforce: Morituri omnibus and more from Image, IDW, Boom, MadCave and others.

ré·su·mé [rez-oo-mey, rez-oo-mey] noun1. a summing up; summary. 2. a brief written account of personal, educational, and professional qualifications and experience, as that prepared by an applicant for a job. In Comic Reader Résumé, I use Mike's Amazing World of Comics to travel back through time via his virtual newsstand to the genesis point of my lifelong collecting of comics. From there, I can offer a “work history” of my fandom through my active purchasing of (relatively) new comic books beginning in January of 1982, when my interest in the medium went from sporadic and unformed to routine on through compulsive accumulation. To streamline the narrative and keep the subjects at least remotely contemporaneous, I will not generally be discussing what we call back issues: books bought long after their publication date. Sometimes, I will cover a book published on a given month that I picked up within a year or so that date, and I give myself an especially wide berth on this aspect in the first couple of “origins” episodes. We'll get more rigidly on point as my memories crystallize and my “hobby” spirals out of control into the defining characteristic of my life (eventually outpacing squalor and competing neuroses.)

"We who are about to die..." A long-forgotten comic from 1986 featuring a clever sci-fi twist and rad costumes, by Peter Gillis, Brent Anderson & Whilce Portacio. www.ComicBookSyndicate.com

Moving into the next phase of Morituri-dom... in which a traitor is revealed, our heroes are put on trial... and we meet the next-next generation(s) of doomed-to-die protectors of the planet, including the shoe-drop installment which introduces the... Morituri Monsters! All that, and our usual nonsensical tangents and hoo-doo! We're getting close to the end of the Gillis/Anderson run... we hope you're enjoying these "big bites" of Morituri goodness! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics @Charlton_Hero / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/ The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Inviting you to spend ten or so hours with the Chris's, as we continue chronicling the adventures of Earth-1287's Mightiest (and only) Heroes!  Having already suffered a handful of losses, our Morituri Makers, Tuolema and Nion have already moved on to "Strikeforce: Morituri - The Next Generation", a trio of new characters who the Chris's initially HATED... especially Will "The Douche" DeGuchi!  Will they ultimately win us over?  Oh, you KNOW they will... This tangent-filled compilation will also introduce the idea of the Morituri Cure, traitors to the cause... and the somewhat horrifying (in all the wrong ways) issue about the CATS!  We hope you enjoy!  -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics @Charlton_Hero / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/ The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

We Who Are About to Talk... A LOT, Salute You! Welcome to the first compilation of the Chris' (Bailey & Sheehan) deep-dive into that book that everybody seems to love to DISCOVER (and farm cheap internet karma by posting the cover of first issue on the socials)... but very few actually bother to READ! Peter B. Gillis and Brent Anderson's unique and wonderful Strikeforce: Morituri! This time out, we look at the first six issues, during which we meet our initial recruits (we even lose one or two!)... find out a bit about the Morituri Process... and are introduced to the Alien Horde that threatens Marvel Earth-1287! We also talk at length about how and when WE discovered this wonderful title... and explore various (and numerous) tangents along the way! Also included as part of this package is the 24th Episode of Chris is on Infinite Earths, wherein I first mentioned my love for this property... and put the "first feelers" out into the universe in hopes of starting up this show! MORITURI MONDAYS was one of the most fun podding projects I'd ever been a part of, and if you missed it the first time 'round, we invite you to hop on board here! You won't be sorry! -- https://www.patreon.com/xlapsed X-Lapsed Voicemail: 623-396-5375 (or, 623-396-JERK) Twitter: @acecomics @Charlton_Hero / Instagram: @90sxmen weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/ The All-New, All-Different chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

        The Fanholes get together to discuss the first issues of Elfquest, Groo and Strikeforce Morituri!

Finally folks... we come to the end of our (regularly-scheduled) run on Morituri Mondays... but, never you fear - we've still got (at least) five thick issues of Strikeforce: Morituri - Electric Undertow on their way in the not-so-distant future. But, that's a story for another day... Today, not only do we wrap up the monthly run of Strikeforce: Morituri... but the Chris's had the absolute pleasure and privilege of chatting with Strikeforce: Morituri co-creator and artist - Brent Anderson!!!  Brent was kind enough to join us for nearly two-hours to chat about, not only this franchise that we hold so dear... but to answer some questions from our faithful friends and listeners! It's a bittersweet episode - and we cannot wait for you all to hear it! -- Check out Brent's work and upcoming projects at: http://www.brentandersonart.com/ El Jaguar: Origins: http://eljaguarorigins.com/ In exchange for a $6 donation to the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco - you can get yourself an awesome Strikeforce: Morituri Insignia sticker - Make your donation through Brent's Contact/Order link at: http://www.brentandersonart.com/contact.asp Follow Brent on Twitter at https://twitter.com/BrentEA -- Your July, 1989 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Scanner, Revenge, Lifter, Burn, (The Ghost, The Wind, The Tiger) Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21), Backhand (#22), Hardcase (#23), Silencer (#23), Scatterbrain (#24), Shear (#25), Brava (#28) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com morituri.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Hello Friends, Today's episode of Morituri Mondays is a special one that we couldn't wait to share!  Not only are we discussing the penultimate (monthly) issue of Strikeforce: Morituri, but we were granted a Q&A session with original Strikeforce: Morituri artist and co-creator, Brent Anderson!  The first half of those questions will be covered in this very episode! But first, the Chris's go "Full Treadmill", providing a bio for Mr. Anderson from his earliest days in the fandom to when he took up the pencil for this very series.  Fans of Chris and Reggie's Cosmic Treadmill will hopefully fondly remember coverage of creator bios. As for this issue we'll be discussing... it's another banger!  And, what's more, it opened up the opportunity for another Treadmillism to sneak its way back into the limelight... "The Hook" returns for a long-form discussion on some of the mysteries surrounding the death (?) of Elvis Presley! It's a great time as always... made better by Brent!  We hope you enjoy, and will return for Part Two of the Q&A next episode! -- Check out Brent's Website: http://www.brentandersonart.com/ Radium the Robot!: http://www.brentandersonart.com/radium.asp -- Your June, 1989 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Scanner, Revenge, Lifter, Burn, (The Ghost, The Wind, The Tiger) Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21), Backhand (#22), Hardcase (#23), Silencer (#23), Scatterbrain (#24), Shear (#25), Brava (#28) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com morituri.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

For today's episode of Morituri Mondays, the comic we're discussing, while a goodie, is secondary to our special guest... the Animator behind the first appearance of Boba Fett (during the Star Wars Holiday Special), as well as Rock & Rule, He-Man, She-Ra, and Dragon's Lair - John Celestri! Mr. Celestri hangs out for a couple of hours and gives the Chris's a wonderful and entertaining education as it pertains to the art and history of animation.  We even get in on the fun ourselves as we deliver Season Two of Strikeforce: Morituri for the returning Pitchforce: Morituri segment! Your regularly scheduled Morituri coverage is also intact... the story is heating up in a big way as we, ever so quickly, rush toward the end of the series proper!  Only two episodes to go before we hop in the Electric Undertow... and Beyond!  -- Check out John Celestri (@CelestriJohn) and all of his projects at: His Indiegogo! https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/john-the-animator-comics--2#/ His YouTube Channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2Jkh1TsKDUBhR3Wa5a3o_g His Web-Site! https://johncelestri.blogspot.com/ -- Your May, 1989 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Scanner, Revenge, Lifter, Burn, (The Ghost, The Wind, The Tiger) Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21), Backhand (#22), Hardcase (#23), Silencer (#23), Scatterbrain (#24), Shear (#25), Brava (#28) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com morituri.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

As we continue counting down to the final issue of Strikeforce: Morituri... we finally see our new "Killer Morituri" in action!  Nobody's safe... especially our heroes (and their beloved Super-Train)!  It's a roller coaster of an issue... cramming a whole lotta graham into just twenty-odd pages of comic! Also: The show turns a little blue as we discuss things like snuff films and... entering the World of F.I.S.T.!  Team-building, learning how to draw, kicking field goals and a whole lot more... this week, on Morituri Mondays! -- Your April, 1989 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Brava, Scanner, Revenge, Lifter, Burn, (The Ghost, The Wind, The Tiger) Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21), Backhand (#22), Hardcase (#23), Silencer (#23), Scatterbrain (#24), Shear (#25) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com morituri.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Whatever happened to the Morituri Master? Today, in the first "official" issue of James D. Hudnall's "new direction", we find out all about what's been going on with Dr. Kimo Tuolema... and why he returned to Paideian employ.  Also, for the first time ever, we find out all about the origins of the Morituri formula... and see the Black Watch put through their paces! Other topics discussed: Marvel's New Mutants film (which one of the Chris's saw, and the other didn't), whether or not there is an added-value measure that might one day make digital comics "collectible", Hollywood Squares alumnus (including and especially Jm. J. Bullock), snazzy Spider-Man jackets that definitely won't get you tossed in a locker, VCR board games, rude noises, and much much more.  It's a fun time as always... and, this might just be the last good "jumping on point" Strikeforce: Morituri gives us! -- Handmaster Herdling's YouTube Page: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQOXqvusZfhZSdcVqX4_x6g -- Your March, 1989 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Brava, Scanner, Revenge, Lifter, Burn, (The Ghost, The Wind, The Tiger) Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21), Backhand (#22), Hardcase (#23), Silencer (#23), Scatterbrain (#24), Shear (#25) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

In our not-so-milestone 26th episode, the War we've been following for the past couple of years draws to a close... with sort of a whimper!  The new aliens beat the old aliens... and our Morituri Warriors sorta play second fiddle to the whole dealio!  What could be left for our heroes, as we enter a time of... peace?!  It certainly can't be that easy... could it? Also: Aunt May rules the World, Trick-or-Treating for UNICEF, Loss-Prevention, Rappin' bout Retail, The New People as a precursor to LOST, and how the Max Headroom Incident is to blame for one of the Chris's never finding out what a TARDIS is!  All 'at and much more! -- Random Stuff we Discussed: The New People (1969) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDdsrvGZJ88 Max Headroom Incident - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWdgAMYjYSs Ames Rap - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFhrj76aMG8 -- Your February, 1989 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Brava, Scanner, Revenge, Lifter, Burn Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21), Backhand (#22), Hardcase (#23), Silencer (#23), Scatterbrain (#24), Shear (#25) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Welcome, friends to a Morituri Milestone... the twenty-fifth episode of Morituri Mondays (we apologize for not covering ourselves in glitter and holograms... but, you can probably fit us both in a bag of some sort)! This time out we're taking a step back from the ongoing war between the Earth and the Horde, and watching as our current team sorta-kinda falls apart!  We've got new members, we've got deaths, we've got some backroom shenanigans from the Paideia... we've got the return (a-hem) of Peter B. Gillis and Brent Anderson... what more could you want? Also: We put Rich Little to shame with our impersonation skills, chat up scary breakfast cereals, Konami's Life Force, Marvel's Assistant Editor Bootcamp (which seemingly caused them to miss many little errors that we will giddily point out), and much much more! -- Your January, 1989 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Brava, Shear, Scanner, Revenge, Lifter, Burn Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21), Backhand (#22), Hardcase (#23), Silencer (#23), Scatterbrain (#24) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Remember that beacon that Dr. Tuolema set off in the very last pages of the Gillis & Anderson run?  Did you think our new creative team was just going to let that fall by the wayside?  Well... so did we.  Thankfully, that wasn't the case... and here is where those chickens will start coming home to roost! Strikeforce: Morituri #24 is another solid issue of the post-G&A run... and we hope you'll decide to give it a try (or, a retrial, as it were).  We've got new aliens, new recruits, and a new direction... that doesn't outright contradict the old one.  All that, and the (brief) return of... Will DeGuchi!  What more could we ask for... well, besides Gillis and Anderson, of course. Also: Discussions of ninjas, Airwolf, bubble gum and a whole lot more! -- Your December, 1988 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Scatterbrain (?), Brava, Shear, Scanner, Revenge Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21), Backhand (#22), Hardcase (#23), Silencer (#23) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Could it be... that Strikeforce: Morituri has returned to form?  An issue of the post-Gillis/Anderson run that didn't make us want to run for the hills???  Well, believe it, friends... because we have a heck of an issue to chat about today! If you dropped this show like you dropped this book back in 1988... we humbly ask you to give this new creative team a try along with us!  We don't think you'll regret it! Today we have corporate and political intrigue, Morituri-adult-fun-time, and an examination of what it might mean for Earth-1287 now that conscription (which we might've called "transcription" a few times during the episode) appears to be a viable option for the Paideia! Also, all the usual nonsense... including a fun Pro-File for Editor/Colorist Gregory Wright, and some odd advertisements where we discuss mail-away action figures, CDs for pennies scams, and that time the current President of the United States shilled for M&M's??? We hope you join us and enjoy!  Spread the word! -- Your November, 1988 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Scatterbrain (?), Hardcase, Brava, Silencer, Shear, Scanner, Revenge Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21), Backhand (#22) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Welcome Back, Recruits! This time out, and after a little time away... we kick off "Season Three" of Morituri Mondays!  We open with a bit of an explanation/apology for the lack of new episodes over the past couple of months... and then hop right on into our Morituri Action!  We got us a little ditty, 'bout Jack and Diane... err, Janet and Dan... two 'Merican kids growin' up in the Horde Land. All the usual nonsense you've come to expect from Morituri Mondays is included as well, including a very off-putting, unfunny, and frustrating Pro-File of Terry Kavanagh... and more Speedball than you can shake a stick at, unless of course we were doing a Speedball-centric Podcast! We hope you'll join us for the fun... and thank you for sticking with us during these odd times! -- Your October, 1988 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Scatterbrain (?), Hardcase, Brava, Backhand, Silencer, Shear Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20), Toxyn (#21) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Is it too late to turn back? That's right, folks... it's a new day for Strikeforce: Morituri and Morituri Mondays.  Out with the old, and in with the new... for better or worse.  Gone are Peter B. Gillis and Brent Anderson... and in their place, James Hudnall and Huw Thomas.  Will it be too much of a shock for our systems to properly process?  We encourage you to tune in and find out! Would it help if we told you there'll be a full-grown man wearing a diaper for the entirety of the issue?  No?  Then forget we said anything... Also: A discussion of What The--?!, a Pro-File of Editor Bobbie Chase, the Evolutionary War rolls on, Pitchforce: Morituri returns reimagining our favorite team as professional wrestlers, and much much more! -- Visual Aids for this episode: https://www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/2020/06/morituri-mondays-episode-21-strikeforce.html -- Your September, 1988 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Scatterbrain (?), Toxyn, Hardcase, Brava, Backhand, Silencer, Shear Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19), Blackthorn (#20) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/    

The moment is finally upon us... today's episode is our deep-dive on Peter B. Gillis & Brent Anderson's final issue of Strikeforce: Morituri... and, friends they are leaving us on one amazing high-note!  Fates are sealed, and questions are answered... you won't wanna miss this one! Also: Whatever happened to The Young Astronauts?  A piece of lost-media on multiple fronts!  What the heck is a Lane Mastodon... and why are his stories so slow?  Tic-Tac Cocktails, sticky fingers, The Elvis Files, and finally, our pitch for Strikeforce: Morituri - The Soap Opera! -- Visual Aids for this episode (Including some Lane Mastodon Comics!): https://www.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/2020/06/morituri-mondays-episode-20-strikeforce.html -- Your July, 1988 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Blackthorn, Scatterbrain, Toxyn, Hardcase, Brava, Backhand, Silencer, Shear Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15), Scaredycat (#19) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Welcome, friends... to the penultimate issue of the Peter B. Gillis/Brent Anderson run of Strikeforce: Morituri.  As this Sword of Damocles hangs over your humbles hosts' heads... we will endeavor as ever...  to keep our respective chins up! In today's issue, the Strikeforce gets its first actual field leader in quite some time... and, it's probably not who you're expecting (if, in fact, you're expecting anybody at all!).  Today's mission... a trip to the Serengeti, not all of our recruits will make it home from this one!  Also: Ever wonder what happened to Aline?  Well, we're about to find out!  Also, what was up with Will last issue... and some of the cryptic things he said?  Yep, most'a that's here too! Plus: Normal nonsense... including memories of taping everything we could off television, being taught by one of The Beatles to eat our pizza "crust first", Bert Convy's sometimes 'fro, comic book pet-peeves, and finally a decent Pro-File when editor, Jim Salicrup takes the wheel! All'at and much, much more! -- Your June, 1988 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Blackthorn, Scaredycat, Scatterbrain, Toxyn, Hardcase, Brava, Backhand, Silencer, Shear Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Welcome back, Recruits! This time out, our main man Will Deguchi takes center stage.  He's a changed man since his run-in with the Morituri Monsters, and appears to have immeasurably more (and less) control over his mental projection powers.  What could it mean to a team with a death sentence, when one of their own might just know who's next to perish?  Many questions are raised in this one, really setting the stage for the next chapter(s) in the (truncated) lives of our heroes! Also: The faaaaar-out Pro-File of Michael Higgins, our pitch for the Strikeforce: Morituri Saturday Morning cartoon series, a discussion on getting scammed over the mail, and much, much more!  It's the most fun you can legally have on a Monday, please consider joining us for the ride! -- Your May, 1988 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Blackthorn, Scaredycat, Scatterbrain, Toxyn, Hardcase, Brava, Backhand, Silencer, Shear Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Monsters walk among us!  Well, sorta... maybe "Monsters strapped to tables are upon us" might be more accurate a description. Whatever the case, it's here where we'll all see what might happen when Dr. Tuolema is removed from his careful position of Morituri-Maker.  We're in for high drama and an absolute roller-coaster ride of emotions this time out folks! Also: The FINAL chapter for our Morituri Mondays Recruits!  Who will survive?  How does their story end? Plus: The usual nonsense, including a particularly irritating Bob Harras Pro-File, a discussion about obscure media, and an attempt by your hosts to get their High School Diplomas!  You won't wanna miss it! -- Your April, 1988 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Blackthorn, Scaredycat, Scatterbrain, Toxyn, Hardcase, Brava, Backhand, Silencer, Shear Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Change is in the air... and, boy do we hope it's fleeting! Welcome folks, to our exhaustive look at the 16th issue of our favorite comic book series, Strikeforce: Morituri!  You ever wonder what might happen when the constant threat of death becomes mundane?  Well, wonder no more... because last issue's fatality barely gets a passing mention this time out!  Also, our last remaining original Aline goes... AWOL!  Where did she go?  None of the Morituri seem to care in the slightest!  We've got Mr. Wetworks, weird factories, a gross showdown at the AZ Corral, and... Monster Morituri???? Also: We chat up Sega Memories, complain about stuff we have no control over, discuss the merits of keeping exotic fish, and much much more!  It's a great time as always, consider lending us your ears for 1/12 of the day! -- Your March, 1988 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Blackthorn, Scaredycat, Scatterbrain, Toxyn, Hardcase, Brava, Backhand, Silencer, Shear Alumni - Snapdragon (#4), Vyking (#6), Marathon (#12), Adept (#13), Wildcard (#13), Radian (#15) -- @acecomics @Charlton_Hero chrisandreggie.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

As we near the half-way point of the Morituri Mondays project, the stakes continue to rise!  In today's show, our "One to Grow On" character, Louis (Radian) makes some startling discoveries... and his methods might just wind up costing him his life!  Also, fresh off her Court Martial "performance", Ruth seems to be getting a bit of the stink-eye from the Paideia Brass and Commander Yuri!  Also still... Aline is still pregnant, and is growing more and more concerned as her clock continues to tick!  OH! And also... the Horde's gone and grown tentacles... what a sticky wicket, indeed! In other nonsense, we get to learn about Bob Budiansky, the Bronx, almost profanely overstuffed OREOs, Captain Power, and your hosts share their eulogy for Schitt's Creek! -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Welcome back, Recruits! Remember how over the past few episodes, our original Morituri's kind of went against the orders of their superiors?  Ya know, potentially throwing everything away and turning traitor in the hopes that their death-sentences might be thwarted?  Well, now is the time where they're going to answer for that!  Also, a Hordian car-jacking in Detroit! Other nonsense includes: why you should always pay a few more bucks for the updated maps in your GPS, the Konami Code (which doesn't work on your GPS), classy candy-themed watches, the Marvel Try-Out Book, the latest book Ann Nocenti didn't read, the dangers of sugar, and much much more!

A lot can happen in between issues... as we're about to learn today! New characters!  New leaders!  New challenges!  All things that will face our favorite team!  Also: Death, and lots of it!  We officially say goodbye from two from our main cast... as well as a newbie who didn't even stay around to finish a cuppa coffee! It's MORITURI vs. MORITURI... and it ends the only way it can! Back-up features including The Official Handbook of the Morituri Universe, and an in depth look at the methodology behind creating characters for Strikeforce: Morituri.  If you ever wondered... wonder no more! Also: your hosts continue to lament the loss of Jim Shooter... and have some fun with the new Editor-in-Cheese!  Do you like mustard on your burger?  Which direction do you cut your sandwich?  Can you solve the Riddle of the Oxy-sphinx?  And, finally... the M*A*S*H outro we promised last week! -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

We are happy to present the long-awaited 12th episode of Morituri Mondays here at the Chris and Reggie Channel, where we will be covering the climactic 12th issue of Strikeforce: Morituri!  Has the team turned traitor?  Are there buns in any ovens?  And what's the deal with Harold's father's hair?  We'll answer all of those questions and more!

After the shocking revelations of Strikeforce: Morituri #9, it's here that we begin to deal with the fallout.  Will our "One to Grow On Man" Louis take the Horde up on their offer of a cure for the Process?  What was the deal with Commander Nion collapsing on the job?  What in the hell was up with those CATS last issue?  The answers for all that... well, two of those questions... and a whole lot more are right here in this very episode!

Welcome to the double-digits, friends!  And to the first issue of Strikeforce: Morituri that... well, we didn't really care for all that much!  If you were hoping for a payoff to the awesome cliffhanger from last issue... well, hmm... please listen anyway?  We promise you'll have a good time! In addition to checking out the issue, we discuss other disappointing cliffhanger moments in media, we get up close and personal with Tom DeFalco and learn about his distaste for stinky freelancers, how one of your humble hosts once dressed up as a Melmacian Alien Life Form, and much much more! Also: Casting Call!  In the grand tradition of Wizard Magazine's Casting Call, we are attempting to cast for the most kick-butt Strikeforce: Morituri feature film, and we're definitely going to need your help to get it right!   -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Greetings, fellow Weekday Warriors! Morituri Mondays is back, and we're primed to take a look at the ninth issue of Strikeforce: Morituri.  After a touching reunion with a feared-dead friend, our team has a pizza party and eventually breaks every rule in the book in order to once again try and protect a certain chocolate factory! Speaking of chocolate... today Chris and Chris conduct a most scientific challenge ever attempted.  It is the great M&Ms vs. Smarties Challenge!  Canadian Chris has American Chris try the candy of his homeland... and challenges him to "pick a side" in the bite-sized candy Civil War!  It's a story of tragedy, triumph... and cheating on a diet!  We challenge y'all to also chime in on your preferred rainbow-colored, melts in your mouth not in your hand type things! Also: Plenty of back-matter nonsense!  A Letters Page!  Bullpen Bulletins!  A Pro-File on one of the Fifty Most Eligible Bachelors in America (according to Playgirl Magazine)!  And much, much more!  It's a great time as always, give it a listen! -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Guilt-Stricken, sobbin' with our heads on the floor... today, we meet The Freshmen! That's right, gang... today we get up-close and personal with those newbies that, for the past couple of issues, have been cookin' in Dr. Tuolema's proverbial "kitchen".  Not only do we meet 'em, we accompany them on their first actual mission as part of the team... and, ho boy, it is quite the trial by fire! All that, and we also tell you how you can become: An Orange Big Shot... with Tang! A Neighborhood Ninja... with Lady Shogun Part of a club, that's made for you and me... with Em Eye See (see ya real soon...) -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Harold is dead. The team is barreling toward the Horde flagship... without their leader, without a plan, without weapons... and without a clue! Will the Strikeforce rise to the occasion... or crumble under the pressure?  It's their toughest challenge to date... and when it's all over, they might find their number dwindling even more! Also: Flyin' Kites with Rain-Blo, the hunt for Bazooka Joe, skateboarding misadventures, and cheap magic tricks! -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @AceComics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

For all y'all in the know... this is the big one.  For all y'all that don't... buckle in! When our Strikeforcers are sent to Holowood for a little R & R, their time off is anything but restful or relaxing!  It doesn't take long for the baddies to show their bulbous chins, and interrupt our team's attempt at tripping the light fantastic in scenic Los Anheles!  The Horde is bored, the team's going stir-crazy, Aline and Robert are losing their marbles... and we've got an ending nobody saw coming! It's a pulse (and pillow) pounding issue, make sure to hold on to your Ugly Balls! -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @acecomics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

Mori-Tuesday?  Sure, why not! A day late, and a dollar short... Morituri Mondays is at it again, and this time out our team of heroes are in mourning... the lovely Lorna wound up succumbing to the strain of the Morituri Process!  The crew doesn't get to mourn for long however, as the Horde has chosen just this moment to invade the hearts, minds, and skin of suburban Illinois!  Will the team be able to fight through the paranoia of propaganda... or will they lose yet another member?! Also: Fun with Accents!  Hivemind Mentalities!  A Smarties Update!  Selling Prizes for Cash!  The final two parts of Gumby and Pokey in Gum-Dinger Land! -- Your April, 1987 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Vyking, Radian, Adept, Blackthorn, Marathon Alumni - Snapdragon (#4) -- Remember to reach out to join the Morituri Cause and help us fight back the Horde!  DM @acecomics and @Charlton_Hero on Twitter to sign up!

T.G.I.M. ... is probably what nobody thought as they hurled their alarm clock into the wall this morning... but, we'd like to hope that our journey through Marvel Earth-1287 puts a little spring into your step as you embark upon a brand new week... so full of possibilities!  And if not, you can still say to yourself, "At least I'm not Harold!" This time out, Chris and Chris (@Charlton_Hero @acecomics) join our team of Super-Celebs as they take in the adulation of their adoring public... it's a "Media Bash" for Strikeforce: Morituri... their own line of comics, their own set of home videos... moy-chandizing, moy-chandizing!  Their party, however, might just be crashed by the Horde looking to even the score from their defeat last issue!  It's a party... not everyone is guaranteed to survive! PLUS: A discussion on the lost medium of VHS, and how random VHS "artifacts" scared the bejeezus out of one of your hosts), more Mandela Effect fun, the evolution of the mustache from manly-to-pervy... and finally, how you... yes you can sign up and help us battle back the alien Horde!  Sign up today to join the fight! -- Your March, 1987 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Vyking, Snapdragon, Radian, Adept, Blackthorn, Marathon -- Things mentioned during the program: The Viacom "V of Doom" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nS545cDy2E What Makes a Logo Scary? - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6TOMtKJ55E -- weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com @cosmictmill chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Happy Monday... soon to be your favorite day of the week!  Okay, maybe not... but, never fear... Morituri Monday is here to help you muddle through! This week, the Chrises (@acecomics @Charlton_Hero) join the fledgling Strikeforce on their first actual mission!  Lemme tell ya, they're not failing to protect a chocolate factory this time around!  Our team is sent into the Soviet Union (which was apparently still a thing that existed in the not-so-far-flung future of Marvel Earth-1287!) to go head on with the Horde... and make a few discoveries about just how gruesome and cruel the alien invaders could be! Also: Some assorted chatter about our early mp3 Players/digital devices, hotel amenities, the "heelish" portrayal of Soviets during the 1980s, plus YOUR FEEDBACK! -- Your February, 1987 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster - Vyking, Snapdragon, Radian, Adept, Blackthorn, Marathon -- Things mentioned during the program: Protect and Survive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6U9T3R3EQg -- weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com @cosmictmill chrisisoninfiniteearths.com charltonhero.wordpress.com/

Happy Monday, Gang! In this episode, Chris and Chris join our new recruits as they have their new powers forcibly jump-started!  Ya see, it's not enough to have the Morituri Formula in yer veins to make you a hero... you also gotta eventually manifest a useful power!  What better way than to cram 'em all into the pressure cooker known only as "The Garden"? The way things are going, our cadets might not even make it out of Basic Training... and we're left wondering if perhaps, that was the plan all along???   Also: Nonsense!  We discover that Gumby and Pokey did in fact make it to Gum-Dinger Land, and that the United States Mint couldn't make up its mind when it came to stamping out 1982 one-cent coins! Coming next week: Your feedback... and an offuh you might not be able to refuse! -- Your January, 1987 Strikeforce: Morituri Roster -  Vyking, Snapdragon, Radian, Adept, Blackthorne, Marathon -- weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com @cosmictmill chrisisoninfiniteearths.com

You, who are about to listen... We Salute You! Welcome friends to the first title-centric series here at the Chris and Reggie Channel as Chris (@acecomics) and... Chris (@Charlton_Hero) take you on a guided tour of Marvel's Earth-1287, a world with an alien invasion situation, and unfortunately for them, a world without super-heroes... that is, until Dr. Kimmo Tuolema devised the Morituri Process.  A process, under which superpowers could be granted to certain "lucky" folks... but at rather a high-cost.  The individual getting those powers is doomed to burn-out and perish within the next 12 months. In this premiere episode, we meet our initial batch of would-be/might soon-be superheroes, with a particular focus on a young comic book fan, Harold Everson.  And, that is "comic book", singular... the poor fella's only ever read the one.  Also included, plenty of chatter that is both off-topic and potentially relevant... well, one of those is true for sure! We also ask the tough questions that need answering... what was Bad Ronald's deal, anyway?  Why are Smarties called Rockets in Canada?  Did Gumby and Pokey ever make it to Gum-Dinger Land?  Why didn't Lazer Tag come with batteries?  Hopefully we'll be able to figure out at least one, and that one will be... One to Grow On. We hope you enjoy! -- Other Episodes Mentioned: Cosmic Treadmill, Episode 57: Strikeforce: Morituri #1 (1986) Chris is on Infinite Earths, Episode 24: Justice League: Generation Lost #1 (2010) -- weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.com @cosmictmill @reggiereggie chrisisoninfiniteearths.com

This week, in a weirdly Marvel-centric outing... Chris (@acecomics) takes you back to the Spring of 2010, during a time when two comic book teams took over much of his reading: the Brightest Day-era JLI... and a book he finally found at a most apropos time, Strikeforce: Morituri.  Join him as he makes many poor comparisons between agreeing to undergo the "Morituri Process" and accepting a temp job! -- For "Mor" Morituri...

This week, we who are about to die Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) check out an offbeat Marvel comic from 1986, Strikeforce: Morituri #1 by Peter B. Gillis, Brent Anderson, and Whilce Portacio! After the usual biographical information, they look at the origins of the phrase "morituri" and when it became part of popular culture. Then, our time-travelers dive into a dystopian future where the world is under constant threat of alien attack, and is protected by...Joe Piscopo. After some discussion about potential adaptations of this property that never were, Chris tells a story about the eerie parallels between this series and his real life at the time that he read it. All that, plus a crack at the listener mailbag! You won't want to miss this trip into a dark and strangely-dressed future! weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com facebook.com/cosmictmillhistory @cosmictmill weirdsciencedccomics.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com weirdcomicshistory.blogspot.com
