Episodes
Quarantine Comics: Supreme Power
May 02, 2020 22:50 - 51 minutes - 47.2 MBSupreme Power #16 (2005) SQUADRON SUPREME is one of those Marvel properties that they keep trying to get to work — and it DOES to a point — but it never feels bigger than you would think it is. Here’s another take on it where Hyperion is raised by the government, Doctor Spectrum makes out with amphibious telepaths and Whizzer has a holographic mother. Special appearance by comedian and character actor Ken Marino. Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryherosh...
Quarantine Comics: Comics’ Greatest World
April 25, 2020 20:34 - 42 minutes - 38.9 MBComics’ Greatest World: Out Of The Vortex #1 (1993) Oh man, time for some Dark Horse comics! In this offering, an alien in a dope-looking outfit appears out of nowhere in a military base located in Cinnabar Flats, Nevada. “Cinnabar” makes us think of cinnamon which is appropriate because our alien guy (Vortex the Heretic) encounters opposition in the form of space spartans carrying electric Eggo waffles. When it's all said and done, a big bubble of lethal toothpaste envelopes the b...
Quarantine Comics: Team Titans
April 19, 2020 01:41 - 59 minutes - 54.2 MBTeam Titans #4 (1992) TEAM TITANS is a superhero team held up by the premise that Donna Troy’s son put chemical additives in our food around the turn of the century and made us all dummies so that we’d accept his genocide campaign. Sounds terrible but on the bright side, this gimmick stuff gave kids superpowers and, in a ploy to stop this tragedy from happening, travelled back in time to start a rock band in SoHo. We also get the love child of Kalibak and former World Champion Shea...
Quarantine Comics: Powerline
April 11, 2020 22:35 - 48 minutes - 44.2 MBPowerline #4 (1988) We kickoff an ongoing experiment during these quarantine times as we go through a random selection of books purchased online from Mile High Comics here in Denver. Hopefully, we won’t have to get thru all of these so that we can resume purchasing dollar comics from physical bins. What we have this week is POWERLINE, a dreary book about two teens with strangely complementary powers thrust into the spotlight via some Lou Perlman manager fellow, packaged as teen he...
Thor Does The Revolution
April 03, 2020 17:33 - 55 minutes - 50.6 MBThe Mighty Thor #246 (1976) Instead of self-quarantining himself with Quarter Pounders and Errol Flynn films, Thor opts instead to disrupt a Latin American revolution because he saw that his buddy Firelord was there. Later, Thor no-sells Jane Foster disrobing and ends up getting hypnotized so overall, not a good time. Meanwhile in Asgard, Balder the Brave looks to depose Odin for banishing loyal soldiers to Cincinnati. Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angr...
Batman & Superman Are Sadists
March 27, 2020 22:32 - 1 hour - 58.5 MBWorld’s Finest #110 (1960) In the further adventures an insane billionaire and his alien madman friend, Bats and Supes encounter an alien who is trying to run a real estate scheme on an asteroid by miniaturizing attractions across the galaxy and starting up his own Epcot Center gimmick (but in SPACE) Things go from worse to even worse when said alien entrepreneur absorbs part of Robin’s life essence into his mirror stomach and Batman has to drive the Batmobile in reverse to save h...
RoboCop
March 21, 2020 00:52 - 46 minutes - 42.9 MBRoboCop [vol 2] #12 (1991) In keeping with the apocalyptic vibes of the now, we check in with Marvel’s take on the RoboCop expanded universe which also includes H.E.R.B.I.E., that Rigellian Recorder who once got drunk with Galactus and Paulie’s sexy robot from ROCKY V. Bear witness as RoboCop vaporizes a limo driver with cyborg indigestion, fights off exoskeletons with human heads and has a series of existential moments with his mechanical kin. Continue the conversation with Shaw...
Batman Meets Supergirl
March 17, 2020 23:06 - 51 minutes - 47.5 MBThe Brave and The Bold # 147 (1979) Batman teams up with Supergirl to take down a bunch of sun-worshipping jobbers lead by comic book’s worst person Doctor Light. Somehow, these guys stuck a giant cannon on a Wayne Enterprises satellite when Bruce was taking a dump or something. Also, Batman is SO TOUGH he survives a brief float-around in actual outer space. He’s the toughest man alive. Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryheroshawn and @JenStansfield an...
Spider-Man's Got 99 Problems
March 05, 2020 23:19 - 52 minutes - 48.1 MBAmazing Spider-Man #257 (1984) Peter and his wacky new costume are challenged by Puma, a guy who turns into a were-cat after an hour of thinking about it. He’s also got girl problems (son) with Black Cat, who thinks Peter is a destitute jobber, and Mary Jane, who Peter throws into a closet. We also witness the Kingpin’s painfully unbalanced workout regimen. Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryheroshawn and @JenStansfield and email the show at worstcollect...
Wonder Woman Vs. Catwoman
February 23, 2020 21:08 - 31 minutes - 28.6 MBWonder Woman [vol 1] #201 (1972) While on the hunt for a rage-inducing jewel hidden in Tibet, Wonder Woman runs afoul of Catwoman (in one of her lesser celebrated outfits). Eventually, both of them are captured by bloodthirsty monks who force the heroines to do battle against each other in suspended harnesses like MAD MAX BEYOND THUNDERDOME. Also, I-Ching is here, freely commenting on everything like he’s Sinbad in every movie Sinbad has ever been in. Oh, and we also go looking for...
BIRDS OF PREY (2020) - SPOILERS AF
February 13, 2020 23:04 - 59 minutes - 54.4 MBWe opt to go in on the latest cinematic offering from DC Comics — BIRDS OF PREY (AND THE FANTABULOUS EMANCIPATION OF ONE HARLEY QUINN). It’s an unremarkable movie but there are are some bright spots and opportunities to build upon. Definitely worth your time to check out if you are comic book fan or if you are curious about CGI hyenas and kids swallowing diamonds and what not. Be warned though — there are a deluge of spoilers throughout so don’t say we didn’t warn you. Continue th...
Howard Jones Joins Doom Patrol
February 07, 2020 02:59 - 59 minutes - 54.4 MBDoom Patrol [vol 2] #70 (1993) This week, we check out a Vertigo-era DOOM PATROL book where the creative tries to keep the weird vibe going that Grant Morrison initiated by bringing in a villain with a penis cannon. We also find out what would happen if the mummy couple from the video for 80s new wave artist Howard Jones’s “Everlasting Love” got into the superhero game. Also, Cliff gets mentally probed by a telepathic doll, unearthing the time he met the Fantastic Mr. Fox. Contin...
Sentinel With A Soul Patch
January 31, 2020 02:14 - 47 minutes - 43.4 MBX-Men [vol 2] #67 (1997) Mutantkind is yet again under siege by Bastion, the Sentinel with a soul patch. Professor X is detained so its up to Iceman and Dr. Reyes to break into Archangel’s NYC pad and fight his Sentinel house sitter. Elsewhere, we meet up with Sabra, an Israeli mutant with the powers of super-strength and exploding clothes. Also, Sentinels. Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryheroshawn and @JenStansfield and email the show at worstcollect...
Green Arrow Fights Orcs
January 24, 2020 23:54 - 38 minutes - 35.5 MBGreen Arrow [vol 3] #28 (2003) For a while, Ollie was dead because he got his hand stuck in a bomb and it exploded while Superman watched. Thankfully for his buddy Hal, Green Arrow is BACK, chasing down Orc-looking Doomsday monsters in the Pacific Northwest with son Connor Hawke. Also, Ollie’s on a break with Dinah (shrug emoji) and hooks up with Black Lightning’s niece. In the end, Ollie gets crucified with his own arrows by a tall assassin who looks like a dweeb. Continue the co...
Green Lantern Vs. Nacho Cheese
January 17, 2020 04:05 - 54 minutes - 50.3 MBGreen Lantern [vol 2] #173 (1984) This ep is about Green Lantern. Quick question though — does anyone know how the constructs actually work? Like, does Hal have to be RIGHT NEXT TO IT for it to exist or can he fly away, go get lunch and come back to find his construct still intact? Anyway, Green Lantern comes back from space exile and goes back to work at Ferris, saves a dude from getting impaled by a girder and tries out a psionic recliner. Later, he meets Javelin, a German Olymp...
Matt Murdock Is A Terrible Lawyer
January 09, 2020 23:52 - 40 minutes - 37.2 MBMarvel Two-In-One #38 (1978) We are back from a brief holiday break with a predictably ridiculous look at MARVEL TWO-IN-ONE with The Thing and Daredevil. The Thing is in jail because he’s raging rock monster. Matt Murdock is awful at his lawyer duties in his defense of Ben so its up to Daredevil to get The Thing cleared. Daredevil then beats up Tom Atkins from HALLOWEEN III and accomplishes nothing. Thankfully, Ben just breaks out of prison because he’s super-strong and confronts ...
Legends Of The Dark Holidays
December 27, 2019 23:43 - 1 hour - 61.4 MBBatman: Legends Of The Dark Knight #79 (1996) We keep on with the holiday theme as we check out Batman on a quest to find some stolen goods from Wayne Manor. First, he stops off at a peep show to talk to a blind woman, followed by YEETING some thugs with the Batmobile. It all wraps up a chemical factory with Batman smacking around some dudes with bad haircuts. Its actually a good story - no lie.

Die Hard In A Toy Store
December 16, 2019 23:06 - 40 minutes - 37 MBHawk & Dove [vol 3] #20 (1991) Its holiday adventure as Dove must save an extremely crowded (and panic-attack inducing) toy store from a Frosty with a flamethrower and a violent ballerina. Thankfully, there are ninja dinosaurs named after US Presidents nearby to lend a hand. Also, Hawk has some locker-room conversation! Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryheroshawn and @JenStansfield and email the show at [email protected]
Psychoblast
December 07, 2019 00:17 - 56 minutes - 51.6 MBPsychoblast #9 (1988) PSYCHOBLAST is about a dude who melds with some type of powerful entity that only comes out when he sleeps. NO…..it is NOT Sleepwalker! Psychoblast is recognizable via his Best Value Quicksilver costume and “Christopher Walken as Max Shreck” hairstyle. In the last issue of his own series, Psychoblast lies unconscious in a hospital bed like a jabroni while some armored dude annihilates New Order and plans to take over the world with his techno-organic tendrils....
New Titans Vs. Chris Mancini
November 23, 2019 00:40 - 56 minutes - 51.4 MBThe New Titans #0 (1994) This week, we go back to DC’s run of #0 issues, diving into what the New (Teen) Titans are up to. Nightwing shows up to tell people he’s leaving, Beast Boy is in the middle of his goth phase and their new villains — Coven and Slagg — make a great couples cosplay if you ever need one. Also, Shawn talks with author, podcaster and former guest Chris Mancini (COMEDY FILM NERDS) about his new graphic novel, RISE OF THE KUNG FU DRAGON MASTER which you can suppor...
The Hulk Gets Impatient
November 15, 2019 23:50 - 45 minutes - 41.6 MBDefenders #56 (1978) Jen is back and so are we when it comes to beating up on the Defenders so everyone can rejoice! In this issue, one of Valkyrie’s jobber friends tries to help her out against Lunatik, some alien dude who looks like Jared Leto’s Joker as played by Tekashi 6ix9ine (I had to look up that spelling because I’m old), only to get his skull caved in. Meanwhile in Russia, Bruce Banner desperately tries to not get aroused whilst draining radiation from his fellow Defende...
The Flash Rogues Gallery
November 11, 2019 17:36 - 1 hour - 55.1 MBThe Flash #254 (1977) Its a very rare episode of WCE this week as Jen is NOT here but Shawn’s brother Brian (from the WhatTheHops podcast) takes her place to talk about a Flash book. In this book, Flash gets gaslighted as all hell by the Rogues via a gimmicked award statue while concurrently subjected to hallucinations from an obscure Silver Age villain. And if that wasn’t enough, Barry’s at home and witnesses Iris’s roommate friend conjuring up demons like its POLTERGEIST or some...
Nightstalkers
November 03, 2019 23:49 - 44 minutes - 41.1 MBNightstalkers #12 (1993) Happy belated Halloween everyone! Nightstalkers was a Midnight Sons joint that featured Blade wearing sheet metal long johns and two other dudes - Hannibal King and Frank Drake - who are very similar. One might be a werewolf, the other might be a vampire. Here, the crew heads from Boston to Nebraska to deal with an EVENT HORIZON situation in a prison headed up by a Porter Wagoner-looking dude with electrical powers. Its like Wes Craven’s SHOCKER without th...
A Generation X Halloween
October 27, 2019 20:50 - 1 hour - 56.2 MBGeneration X #22 (1996) As we approach Halloween, we check in with Generation X out in Vermont to see how they’re doing.

Also, Emma Frost is being pestered by Nightmare because a scary lady demon chased him out of the Nightmare realm and he needs help to get back in. Meanwhile, the rest of the crew do battle with a bunch of Plastic Man-looking ...
JOKER (2019) - SPOILERS AF
October 22, 2019 00:00 - 58 minutes - 53.6 MBSorry for the delay on this episode but we went to go see Tool this week and we’ve been fighting off those little clay monsters from their videos. We mix it up this week and review JOKER (2019), going SPOILERS AS ALL HELL! There was a lot to unpack in this film so it was worth taking the time to discuss. Also, we partook in a horror film festival this weekend and you’ll get to hear about it! Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryheroshawn and @JenStansfie...
New Gods and Zombies
October 11, 2019 23:56 - 1 hour - 58.5 MBNew Gods [vol 3] #19 (1990) Darkseid’s dad Yuga Khan is coming to visit so everything needs to be just perfect. The zombies need to bring his angry son Orion from Earth so that he can drain his power. And don’t forget to pay the plump necromancer — though you could probably stiff her. Most importantly, make sure the Grim Reaper on skis sucks the lifeforce out of a well-meaning Italian man. If all goes well, Metron might let you use his cosmic toilet. Continue the conversation w...
New Warriors Vs. Russians
October 04, 2019 20:46 - 59 minutes - 54.2 MBNew Warriors #28 (1992) Its the debut of a hip new 90s hero in this issue of NEW WARRIORS! Meet Turbo — the girl who has turbines on her wrists and looks like a Jetsons cast-off. At some point in his book, Turbo shoves her whole hand in a dude’s mouth. Also, Namorita’s got bad intel, leading to a battle with Russian importers/exporters and some winged jobber named Cardinal. I bet he’s from Arizona or something! Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryherosha...
Haywire
September 27, 2019 23:36 - 44 minutes - 40.9 MBHaywire #3 (1988) This book almost ruined us. Haywire was an early DC “mature readers” offering (pre-Vertigo) about a scruffy dude whose parents get murdered and somehow, he ends up in a psionic suit of armor that looks like a rejected TMNT villain design. Like something Krang would come up with only to have it get dismantled in a single episode. In this particular issue, Haywire squares off against a BDSM-based villain called Nightlash who pretty much beats him like a jabroni. T...
Thunderbolts
September 20, 2019 21:41 - 1 hour - 62.5 MBThunderbolts #42 (2000) We’ve never really covered the Thunderbolts which is strange considering they’ve been around for 8000 years. But here’s a tale where they’re on the run, hiding out in the Rockies. Atlas ruins a woman’s bar, Wonder Man destroys a school and lady Citizen V fights Crimson Cowl with plumbing equipment. Its a chop suey of late-90s/early-00s comic book excess that I have no idea how we recovered from. Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angry...
Batman Goes To New Jersey
September 13, 2019 21:39 - 1 hour - 61.4 MBDetective Comics #519 (1982) Colonel Blimp — a zeppelin-based villain dressed like a purple M. Bison — incinerates D.C. while en route to extorting billions of dollars from the government via his battleship theft scheme. Batman sends Dick in red footie pajamas to the Arctic to retrieve the ship while Bats goes to the Garden State to punch a dude in the back of the neck. Somewhere in there, Elongated Man (played by Jeremy Renner) saves the nation’s capital (no he doesn’t) Also, we ...
Ms. Marvel
September 06, 2019 21:20 - 1 hour - 60.6 MBMs. Marvel #1 (1977) Neither of us had no idea that Carol Danvers once interviewed Diana Ross for ROLLING STONE and wrote a best-selling book on SPACE~! Huh….the things you learn from reading comics. So in the very first issue of her very first ongoing series, Carol Danvers aka Ms. Marvel attempts to stage dive after foiling a bank heist, becomes the editor of a women’s insert for the Daily Bugle and burns the Scorpion alive in boiling acid at a sprinkle museum pop-up in Brooklyn....
ClanDestine
August 30, 2019 16:04 - 44 minutes - 40.3 MBClanDestine #1 (1994) ClanDestine is one of the most jabroni forgotten teams that have ever been produced in comics. I’ve had a beef with this book for simply existing, dating all the way back to 1994. Anyway, a feudal villager made love with a genie and all their kids were immortal and had varied degrees of power gimmicks. Then THOSE peoples kids were born with powers and so on yet somehow, they all remained brother and sister. The current crop is made up of a constantly nude blu...
Machine Man 2020
August 22, 2019 23:52 - 1 hour - 59.4 MBMachine Man [vol 2] #2 (1984) In one year from now — 2020 — we will have flying cars and sentient robots coming out of our ears as far as the Machine Man future is concerned. Also, Iron Man’s going to look really strange with his Jack-O-Lantern mouth. At least newsies caps will still be in style, much like they are now! Also, we comment on Spider-Man leaving the MCU as well as our recent trip to the Fort Collins Comic-Con. Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @...
Detention Comics (Robin, Superboy, other garbage)
August 16, 2019 00:28 - 1 hour - 79.1 MBDetention Comics #1 (1996) This is an anthology of school-related stories that were not good enough to make it into the 90s SHOWCASE books: Tim Drake beats up Suicidal Tendencies en route to stopping his method-out chum from killing a ponytailed fellow student Superboy makes a heartfelt statement about teacher’s salaries. Guy Gardner does a shot-for-shot remake of Morgan Freeman’s LEAN ON ME (1989) Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryheroshawn and @Jen...
Thor Goes To Hell
August 08, 2019 22:30 - 1 hour - 63.9 MBThe Mighty Thor #443 (1992) Thunderstrike “Thor” hands over his hammer to Mephisto like an idiot so Thor barges into Dr. Strange’s house to have Strange send him to actual Hell to get it back. The problem is that he’s just jobber boy Eric Masterson and he stinks so Doctor Strange has to call Silver Surfer in to distract Mephisto so that ThunderThor can get his stick back and free the real Thor from a Hefty bag. We also give our thoughts on HOBBS & SHAW and even BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY. ...
X-Men 2099
August 01, 2019 22:07 - 57 minutes - 52.7 MBX-Men 2099 #19 (1995) We get thrust into the mediocre world of 2099 as Meanstreak helps save Halloween Jack’s casino from Channing Tatum on Bane venom while Krystalin jailbreaks a Jonathan Taylor Thomas-looking brat for cyber-reasons. That would be a great title for a 2099 book….CYBER REASONS 2099. Throw ‘em all in there and see what happens — Spider-Ham 2099, Channing Tatum 2099, Billy Ray Cyrus 2099. Have them all fight for holographic space credits on a pole or something. Also,...
Secret Society of Super-Villains
July 28, 2019 20:17 - 43 minutes - 39.6 MBSecret Society of Super-Villains #13 (1978) The eponymous secret society featuring a nearly nude Wizard and ultimate DC jobber Captain Comet fart around in the timestream and end up on the Crime Syndicate’s Earth. Battles ensue so the secret villains decide the only way back home is to steal gimmicks from the Syndicate — include Johnny Quick’s Mark Kelso Wazoo helmet — and make a stew that will rip open the space/time continuum. Heady stuff. Can’t these villains just rob banks or s...
Satana, The Devil’s Daughter
July 18, 2019 22:52 - 43 minutes - 40.1 MBMarvel Premiere #27 (1975) Satana ends up in a California coast town, possibly the Silver Shamrock town from HALLOWEEN III. She breaks up a modern day witch burning only to have the “witch” turn heel and actually BE a witch....sort of. More of a like a Satanic personal trainer that looks like Jesus Christ but dresses like Moondragon. Anyway, there’s a kid trapped in a cape somehow and cars explode. Just like in HALLOWEEN III now that I think about it…. Continue the conversation wi...
Spider-Man: Far From Home — SPOILERS AF
July 11, 2019 20:30 - 1 hour - 56.4 MBSo Shawn screwed up and planned on reading an AVENGERS WEST COAST that we’ve already covered so that totally threw off our pre-determined podcast mojo. That being said, we figured it would be timely to do a comprehensive review of SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME and give our thoughts on the latest MCU movie. There are spoilers abound here so listen with caution if you have yet to see the film. Also, we talk about our recent trip to Mile High Comics and some of the books/gimmicks we pick...
Superman Vs. Alex Trebek
July 04, 2019 18:32 - 1 hour - 62 MBSuperman #372 (1982) We’re back with more summer fun as Superman encounters a radioactive Alex Trebek, who unleash an anti-matter splotch on the Earth. You see, his government-issued android children were killed in a tidal wave so its up to Superman to take Alex Trebek back in time to save his "kids." Also, we catch up with Jimmy Olsen in 2021 where there are flying cars and stuff. Superman Jr Jr saves the day by ditching a girl on a date because she didn’t know what an ice cream...
Barbie Celebrates Summer
June 20, 2019 22:51 - 1 hour - 57.1 MBBarbie Fashion #33 (1993) Let’s jump into the summer months as Barbie forcibly projects her clueless improv skills onto terrified jazz festival-goers, including Al Roker and young Steve Urkel. Later, Barbie and her cannibalistic cult of child-kidnapping friends present their heath-compromised friend with dirty seashells. Then….everyone gets mono. Probably. The end.

Killer Croc is wearing paisley suspenders, Alfred’s gone plaid and Robin is walking around in his ballet shoes.

Later, Wonder Woman falls off a boat to stop Felix Faust and his banker hair from permanently miniaturizing the Statue of Liberty. Green Arrow watches Wonder Woman change costumes underwater while Superman broods. Continue the conversation with Shawn and ...
Doctor Strange and Doctor Fate
May 24, 2019 02:56 - 1 hour - 57.4 MBDr. StrangeFate #1 (1996) In the Amalgam Universe, Doctor Fate merged with Doctor Strange and became a massive sausage that ends up being Charles Xavier. No surprise there. Also, Zatanna Wanda is insatiable, Green Lantern Nova is sassy and Hulk Grundy is super emo in his trench coat. Also, the Sanctorum’s house servant glues construction paper to his face. Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryheroshawn and @JenStansfield

Superman Family
May 10, 2019 02:31 - 1 hour - 61.2 MBSuperman’s Pal, Jimmy Olsen #16 (1956) Its a trio of Jimmy Olsen stories that make no damn sense: Jimmy and Superman keep plutonium in the Daily Planet fridge only for the Swami (Chris Berman) to nearly swindle them out of it by making Jimmy hallucinate. Superman carries Jimmy into the nuclear winds, turning him invincible. Lois hits Jimmy with her shoe. Jimmy takes a truth serum and nearly has Clark Kent murdered in his own office.

(Kevin) Nash
April 18, 2019 20:52 - 1 hour - 57.2 MBNash #1 (1999) Former WCW and WWF World champion / MAGIC MIKE dancer Kevin Nash combined forces with Image Comics in the late 90's to create a comic about himself and his beautiful hair. Apparently in four years, the world will be seriously screwed and its full-on LAND OF THE DEAD minus zombies out there. Kevin Nash is our savior, fighting against creepy ministers and devilish women with extremely pointy dresses. Nash’s out here dropping explosive Mentos in dudes’ mouths and making...
