Ten Cent Takes

Issue 97: Nightcat

It's the episode Mike's wanted to record ever since we started the podcast! This week we're looking at Nightcat, Marvel's 1991 pop star who sings like she's straight out of 1986!
We're looking at both the comic and the album accompanying it, as well as talking about why the project might've failed to take off with fans. 

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Spooktacular Edition

In honor of Halloween this week, we picked up some spooktacular comic booOOooOoks in the dollar bins!
Jessika read the creepy and fantastical adaptation of Edgar Allen Poe's Conqueror Worm. Mike... well, he picked up the 90s Malibu comic Lord Pumpkin. 

Issue 96- Creepshow (w/David M Booher!)

It's still October, which means we're still covering Spooky Season™ comics! This week, we're talking about Stephen King's Creepshow.
Joining us for this episode is 1980s Stephen King expert (and friend of the podcast) David M. Booher!

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Wandering West Edition

Howdy pardner. This week, we're hanging out in the saloon and checking out some Western comics!
Mike brought the Mad Max-esque Hex #1 to the table, while Jessika picked up the classic Ringo Kid #7.

Issue 95- Planet of Vampires

In honor of Spooky Season™ officially arriving, we're looking at Planet of Vampires! This 1970s horror comic (initially written by Larry Hama!) aims to deliver a sinister dystopian story, but serves up something so-so. 

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Absurd Abominations

Have you ever looked at a comic and thought that it looks ridiculous and terrible... but you *have to* read it?
Us neither. Anyway, this week's Dollar Bin Discovery theme is "Absurd Abominations."

Issue 94: The Jack of Hearts

The superhero with one of the craziest costumes in the Marvel Universe in his own miniseries! It's got everything: A bonkers storyline! Nick Fury! Psychic flashbacks! Comics Code-approved orgies! 
Man, the 80s were wild.

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Bi Pride Edition

Did you know September is Bi Pride Month? That means it's time for us to scope out some Dollar Bin Discoveries featuring proud bi characters!
Jessika scoped out Old Lady Harley 3 while Mike read Hellblazer 51, two DC comics featuring two very different forms of representation!

Issue 93: Street Fighter

Did you know Street Fighter has 80 different comic books? Did you also know that it all started with Malibu's Street Fighter series in 1994, which is one of the worst things you'll ever read?

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Video Games Edition

In honor of National Video Game Day coming up, this week's Dollar Bin Discovery theme is video games!
Both of us looked at adaptations of 90s games. Jessika picked out Sonic the Hedgehog: In Your Face, while Mike snagged the first issue of Udon's Darkstalkers comic adaptation!
