The Comet #1 and Legend of the Shield #1 with Pat Casey

On this episode Matt and returning guest co-host Pat Casey (screenwriter of VIOLENT NIGHT 1 & 2) strive to make an impression as they discuss the consequence of the launch of the Impact Universe with 1991's THE COMET #1 and LEGEND OF THE SHIELD #1. (Matt tried to use synonyms of "impact" and it made him sound like AI.  Never one to miss an opportunity to take the wrong lesson from something, Matt is now suspicious of synonyms) Both Pat and Matt have a lot of fondness for the Impact Universe, although Pat admits that his first encounter with it was less than pleasant.  Matt tries his darndest to stay on topic, but ends up rambling about weird Golden Age patriotic superheroes for a while. While Matt probably doesn't bring up Nightman, Pat does share a few non-spoiler details about the upcoming VIOLENT NIGHT 2 in theaters December 4, 2026!
