Idea of Evil: The Golden Age - Part I

Gareth and Reid are hoisting their enormous swords onto their shoulders and setting off down memory lane with a discussion of Berserk's multi-volume flashback arc: the Golden Age. We get into chapters 1-6 from volumes 3 and 4, covering the not-so-halcyon childhood days of Guts' youth, the comic's shifting art style as it focuses on medieval settings, the introduction of the Band of the Hawk, and the most erotically charged, sword-biting-est confrontation between major characters we've witnessed to date.   Next time: chapters 7-22, from "A Wind of Words" through to "Campfire of Dreams," in volumes 5 to 7.We've also created a PayPal link if you're enjoying the show and would like to help us recoup our costs and allow Superculture to continue more collaborative projects like this one.For more from Gareth, visit their Twitter @JumpOvertheAge and for more from Reid, visit @ReidMcCarter.The Idea of Evil intro/outro theme was written and performed by Blake Hester (@MetallicaIsRad).
