How long has Todd McFarlane been teasing a new Spawn movie? It seems like it has been at least a decade. Do his latest comments mean anything? Sticking with comic books, we discuss the adaption of the controversial Garth Ennis book, Crossed. Is the name being attached to it the perfect match or overkill? Plus, Predator: Killer of Killers new.One of the wildest films we have ever covered on our humble little podcast is All Jacked Up and Full of Worms. We were not exactly sure of what to think once it was over, but we knew we liked it. We also could not wait to see what writer-director Alex Phillips was going to do next.Anything That Moves is a psychosexual dark comedy about a bike courier sex worker who is living his best life until a serial killer begins killing the people he loves. It sounds straightforward, but it is a bonkers all over the place experience. It is a stylish watch that will definitely not be for everyone.Our feature presentation has a great set up. Lena wakes up in a moving trailer. She has no idea how she got there or where she is going. A voice comes over a speaker and lets her know that she has been infected and they are taking her to get cured. It starts with a sense of mystery.Like sports, movies are not about how you start, but you how finish. It is unfortunate that Hellcat is unable to take advantage of this premise. There is too much going on, but somehow the movie still has nothing to say. The twists are nonsensical and the characters are not as compelling as they need to be.

SUMMER CROSSOVER SPECTACULAR CONTINUES! Alien attacks on Earth are an almost routine occurrence in the DC Universe, but until 1988's Invasion!, we'd rarely seen one treated as an actual global war, with campaigns on multiple fronts, chains of command, political negotiations and alliances, and massive casualties. In three 80-page giant issues, Keith Giffen brainstorms an alliance between the Dominators and several other alien empires, Bill Mantlo supplies the dialogue, and Todd McFarlane and Bart Sears bring it to life in the art. We weren't sure what to expect from this borderline-forgotten crossover, so we were pleasantly surprised to enjoy a rollicking superhero epic. The series also reveals the origins and mechanisms behind how metahuman super powers work in the post-Crisis DCU (if you're into that sort of thing). Listeners of our series on Morrison and Truog's Animal Man will find revealed in these pages the source of Buddy Baker's malfunctioning abilities!Discussed in this episode: Invasion! #1-3, plus various tie-ins and the Daily Planet Extra.Support the show at patreon.com/ironageofcomics

Read transcriptHell hath no fury like a Hellspawn scorned, especially when that Hellspawn is leaping between platforms on your PlayStation 2! This week's episode of Play Comics dives headfirst into the fiery pits of “Spawn Armageddon,” the video game that attempted to cram the first 99 issues of Todd McFarlane's demonic anti-hero saga into button-mashing glory on PS2, Xbox, and GameCube. Chains will fly, capes will billow dramatically for no apparent reason, and we'll answer the burning question: can any game truly capture the essence of a character who essentially told both Heaven and Hell to take a hike? Joining us on this unholy quest is the supremely talented Rob Duenas from the Sketchcraft YouTube channel, whose pencil might actually be mightier than Spawn's chains. When Rob isn't dropping knowledge bombs about art techniques online, he's busy creating jaw-dropping illustrations for comic books – including the mind-bending “Spawn Kills Every Spawn.” Yes folks, our guest has literally drawn Spawn murdering alternate versions of himself, which makes him uniquely qualified to judge a game where Spawn murders… well, pretty much everything else. So grab your favorite necroplasm-infused beverage, wrap yourself in a sentient cape that definitely isn't judging your choice of pajamas, and prepare for an episode more twisted than Violator's family reunion. We're diving deep into the 2003 gaming experience that asked the important question: “What if we gave the angriest character in comics a bunch of weapons and unleashed him in a world that looks suspiciously like the developer's first attempt at a 3D environment?” The answer, dear listeners, involves a lot more jumping puzzles than anyone ever asked for. Learn such things as: Who would have thought that Rob knows so much about game development? Would anyone believe that you could cram 99 issues of comic story into a single game back in 2003? Is this really how we're going to let Spawn end in console games? And so much more! You can find Rob on on YouTube @Sketchcraft or his website Sketchcraft which has links to whatever social media places are still alive this week.
