Legends Podcast #697; Legends of Halloween: Color Out of Space (2019) feat. ITHAQA Comic Book Creator Michael Watson

Legends of Halloween takes a detour into Lovecraft Country with special guest comic book author Michael Watson. Based on the 1927 short story, H.P. Lovecraft's "The Colour Out of Space" follows the aftermath of a mysterious meteorite that crashes on a family farm in the dark woods west of Arkham, Massachusetts. Starring Nicolas Cage and directed by Richard Stanley, the film adaptation was meant to kickstart a shared Lovecraft cinematic universe, but wound up buried at the box office. And here to help with our review of Color Out of Space, we've got the creator and author of the Lovecraftian indie comic, ITHAQA, which expands the map of Lovecraft Country to include the Roaring '20s in Ithaca, New York. Stick around after our review to learn more about ITHAQA and find out how you can become a part of the cosmic horror!   Find out more about ITHAQA at https://www.ithaqacomic.com/ and subscribe to get free digital copies of the first two issues!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com   You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.
