Wow—what a show we have for you today! In this episode of Suvudu On Air, we're joined by Doc Midnight (whose secret identity is Terry Gant, but that's just between us, okay?). Doc (Terry) is the owner and operator of Third Coast Comics in Chicago, IL, and brings a wealth of comics knowledge to the show.
Tune in to hear us talk about...
- Matt's movie of the week: Black Death. Is it as cute and cuddly as it sounds?
- Kyle chimes in with a movie pick too, that isn't nearly as filthy as it sounds. We promise. No really.
- Does it matter how movies, comics, and other cool stuff is delivered anymore? Does a movie need to hit the theater to be worth seeing?
- Terry has an idea to marry digital comics with print runs.
- Terry's sure-fire, don't-miss-them comics picks!
- Including a cross-over event so excellent Kyle nearly dies of joy.
- Kyle may have read "the best science fiction novel of the year" already. It's not out yet, but it's coming and it involves a lot of Atari.
- Speaking of Atari, wouldn't it be cool if you could play their classic 2600 games online for free? We tell you how.
Hey, what were those comics recommendations again? Yeah, Skype was acting up, so to make sure you get Terry's picks (which are excellent), we've collected and presented them below.
