Most of my content came out every Sunday in October, but I thought it would be cool to have Ron on the show to talk about this hidden gem. This title doesn't get talked about much, but there are a couple of horror books for those of us that are fans of the genre!

We saved a great one for last, and we couldn't wait to get rolling! After we talk about our history with this film and Bava, we deep dive on this very influential film.

It's been a while since he and I have had the chance to record, but never fear, we'll get back to more Phantom Stranger after Halloween, but for now, we get to sit down and speak on two scary tales from this lesser-known title!

He picked a really fun issue from the House of Secrets, and he and I (and Abel) will try our best to gleefully present the three stories inside this book.

My buddy Jeremiah is here with me (we typically cover Phantom Stranger, and other wacky oddities), and we dive headfirst into the madness of this proto-slasher film! It's a bit of an odd one in my humble opinion, but also very fascinating. An interesting cast that we talk about as well as the differences between Bava's previous films and this one.

These books were chosen for two big reasons, and we get into that right away on this episode. From the late Bronze Age or Copper Age, if you will, Gerry Conway really upped the ante with a very creepy story, and then add the atmospheric horror talents of Gene Colan, and you've got a winner.

Black Sabbath is a super fun anthology film with three segments, that are very different from each other, but are brought together by the one and only Boris Karloff!

Hey there, all you spirits of vengeance! Dr Anj is back, and we're covering one very sadistic comic book! Normally, we see the Spectre do all the dirty work, but in this story, we get to see the villain employ some pretty heinous acts, too. This issue also brings a slight change in the art team as well, but no worries, it's still top notch. Plus, we briefly hit on the Aquaman backup, as it has a kooky story (Paul Levitz) and great art (Mike Grell). So grab your hypnotizing glasses from the comic

Join us as we deep dive into this issue and explore not only the fantastic storytelling of Michael Fleischer but the exquisite artwork of Jim Aparo as well.

This one is a bit unique that it's all reprints, but they're all recent reprints. Don't worry, Ed and I will explain everything (wink and nod to the Checkered Past podcast)!

Hey there everybody, it's Hammer time! Mike is back with me, and we're taking a quick side trip away from the exploits of Baron Frankenstein, to bring you a classic in every sense of the word! This original story by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is an all time classic, and up to this point had been adapted on film several times. But, when Hammer takes a stab (see what I did there?) at it, they bring out the big guns! Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, and Andre Morell are front and center in this wonderf

The King of Comics, Jack Kirby, created so many fantastic comic book characters, it was tough to decide which one to dive into, but then it occurred to me that I own all sixteen issues of this series, plus it's not one that I've seen covered a lot either, so why not jump in. This is a longer episode, as we not only cover the first issue, but our thoughts on Kirby, and our

Hey everybody! Herman and I are back with another film discussion! Night of the Eagle (1962) is a good one from a smaller studio (as in not Hammer or Amicus), but really delivers the goods! The film is actually based on a very good novel, Conjure Wife (by Fritz Lieber, and we'll talk about it, too) about witchcraft in the setting of a small British university. If you haven't seen this film yet, definitely give it a watch before listening in (spoilers ahoy, as usual). The film stars Peter Wyngard
