D'lethal Weapons - Dial Up Podcast

Across the Pages (AxP) is our series where we take two similar-ish characters/teams/concepts from different creators or publishers and give their various forms of media a well-deserved spotlight. This time, we've got a couple uncanny teams to talk about: Doom Patrol and the Umbrella Academy. One of them a group of super-powered "siblings" collected from all over the world at birth, the other a group of misfits and mishaps. We give our thoughts on both first seasons of the shows for each property, as well as an arc from each comic book history: Doom Patrol's Crawling from the Wreckage and Umbrella Academy's Apocalypse Suite.  --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--  0:00 D'Lethal Weapons Intro  Meat and Potatoes - The flavour of the day and main topic of discussion for the given episode after general chit chat and an absolutely terrible introduction. (theme by audionautix.com)  Hero Draft - Our very own comic based fantasy league!

Continuing on our Arc Analysis series with a mini crossover event from 2010: Shadowland. Daredevil is in control of The Hand, and has Hell's Kitchen on a lockdown of ninja-enforced protection. It's up to a combination of Marvel Knights to bring him down. We summarize and spoil the 5 main entries of this story, dig into the characters, their motivations and even the artwork - issue by issue - to let you know all about the world. We hope you enjoy this episode of Arc Analysis... Or die trying.  --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--   0:00 D'Lethal Weapons Intro  Meat and Potatoes - The flavour of the day and main topic of discussion for the given episode after general chit chat and an absolutely terrible introduction. (theme by audionautix.com)  Hero Draft - Our very own comic based fantasy league!

Spider-Man the Animated Series from the mid-90's is always going to hold a special place in our hearts because we grew up with it. The perfect spider-man personality and we can't help but compare other versions of the character to this one. The Mutant Agenda and Mutant's Revenge are episodes 4 and 5 in of the second season, and in this bottle cap, we go in on them. It's an epic crossover event of X-Men being pulled into Spider-Man's hometown of Queens. How could this not be a perfect review, right? We go in. Enjoy! --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--

Happy Happy Joy Joy! Here at Comic Patrol, as long as it has a comic book adaptation, we talk about it. Guess what? Ren & Stimpy DO have a comic series... We just don't talk about it at all in this episode (p.s. No sir... we don't like it). What we do talk about here includes the background of the trailblazing, animated series, the best episodes it did put out, and our favourite episodes of the show (amongst other things).

We effing love rogues galleries... Especially Spider-Man's.  He has easily the best group of adversaries in Marvel Comics. From animal-people to elemental to crime bosses to... alien goo creatures, this rogues gallery has it all.

During a mic check, we ended up getting sidetracked and started discussing the rogues gallery before we were even ready to record it. A little behind the scenes with The Weapons, if you will. --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--

Spider-Man the Animated Series from the mid-90's is always going to hold a special place in our hearts because we grew up with it. The perfect spider-man personality and we can't help but compare other versions of the character to this one. The first 2 episodes of the second season, we are introduced to the Insidious Six (Sinister wasn't allowed to be used on a kid's show - so says censorship). Add in the fact that Spider-Man is experiencing bouts of losing his powers, he has to take on a group of his rogues at once. This is our bottle cap review of this 2 episode arc. --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--

This week, our focus us a HELL of a ride, as we set our sights on Spawn and Hellboy, their odd similarities, their early days, their movies and a comic run for each of them. --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--  0:00 D'Lethal Weapons Intro  Meat and Potatoes - The flavour of the day and main topic of discussion for the given episode after general chit chat and an absolutely terrible introduction. (theme by audionautix.com)  Hero Draft - Our very own comic based fantasy league!

If you grew up in the 90's, you probably watched The X-Men Animated Series. If you never did, the eff is wrong with you? The Dark Phoenix Saga was a 4 episode stretch that was pulled from the comic books arc which lasted MUCH longer... Take a dive with the Weapons to see if it was or is worth a couple of cold ones. --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--

Villains range from cool to badass to cheesy. But these guys? This lot we touch on in this episode are downright out of left field. And it's great. And you've never heard of them.. Probably.

Soooooo Phase 4 rolled out at SDCC a few weeks ago, and we have yet to talk about it. This week, that is exactly what we're doing: predicting and planning on what we hope to see for each and every announcement made at SDCC, and where the MCU will be headed.Tune in and join Coke and Dank on the fun of predicting on what's to come. --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--

The Justice League vs The Crime Syndicate.A group of super-powered individuals who have the same powers as the Justice League, but with a drastically different approach to how they go about their business.

Two thirds of the Holy Trinity are on the run from the government, and President Luthor won't be pleased until the bounty on their heads has been completed. Batman and Superman have to fight their way through waves of DC characters on their way to Lex, the source of their headaches this time around.

The animated flick to start them all (I think we can all look past Superman: Doomsday), this is The New Frontier! Stylized, kind of weird and a lot of personality, this is the first animated Justice League movie to be pushed out, starting off a stream of others to follow. We pop the caps and give a little review to how we feel about this flick, it's pros and cons - join along.   --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--

The superhero of superheroes. The one, the only: Superman... is dead. That's right, this episode we're going through the different portrayals of how Supes bit the dust. Promised to you back during our 3 part DC Animated Movies discussions, here it is: the comic event of the 90's. It was a huge deal back then, and no other event since has quite captured the energy (or rage) that this one did. Included in this episode, we talk about the comic event The Death of Superman, as well as the animated films Superman: Doomsday, The Death of Superman and The Rise of the Supermen.  --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--   0:00 D'Lethal Weapons Intro  Meat and Potatoes - The flavour of the day and main topic of discussion for the given episode after general chit chat and an absolutely terrible introduction. (theme by audionautix.com)  Some light rankings - each of our top 3 animated Bat flicks, and the ones we dislike the most.  Keep 6ix - 6ix, 6

Great Superman stories are difficult to come by - he's a hard character to write a compelling story for because his weaknesses are limited. Superman vs The Elite poses an interesting situation for Superman to mull over - one that has to do with his very core: his values. What happens, Superman, when the public begins to believe that you aren't enough? Fucking dope, right? --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--

If you grew up in the 90's, and you somehow missed the existence of this show (which is highly doubtful), then you are missing out big time. Arguably the most underrated and beloved animated show of that era, the first 5 episodes were put out as a direct-to flick. We cover it here in our first official Bottle Cap Review. --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't dick pics)--
