We did a livestream to wrap up the show we've loved to make for you for five-and-a-half years. We had folks pop on, send in messages, and chat at us. We tried to read chat messages for the audio listener, but it's tough to do, especially when you're having a conversation w/ folks. Watch the video to see a lot of the stuff we didn't read on air: https://youtube.com/live/Q3hzJvw8mVE?feature=share Thanks to all who listened and watched over the years.

Demon Hunter is Gideon Cross, a vet who returns from The Nam to nothing and begins working as muscle for the mob, which naturally leads to him being headhunted to be a "Harvester of Eyes" for a mysterious cult that might just be up to something dark and nefarious!

Atlas decided to disrupt Marvel's near monopoly on kung fu comics with this origin tale of two twin brothers (one's evil!) who were bathed in radiation in a bomb explosion in Japan as infants. Between their irradiated strength and their years of martial arts training, they were both living lethal weapons. Time to head to the good old US of A for some mid-'70s mayhem.

Martin Goodman wanted to offer a robust & varied line of comics to compete with Marvel, DC, et al, so he needed a teen-humor mag. He used the art from Tower's TIPPY TEEN (1965-69) and only changed the main character's name...et voila...something to compete with Archie and the gang! We briefly talk about the history of Archie and its clones and then proudly present THREE Vicki stories Power Records-style with real teens as voice talent, sound effects, and original music.

We're joined by Marvel by Month's Bryan Stratton & Jamie Wenger! Forget Schrödinger's cat; we've got Kanigher's comic. How can a war comic be both ridiculously surreal and disturbingly real at the same time? The commandos go deep undercover in Germany as a traveling circus freakshow to kidnap Einstein's bomb buddy from a Nazi concentration camp!  If you aren't already subscribed to MbtM, you're comics-podcast listening wrong!

After Rommel lands a crushing blow on the Allied forces in Tunisia, the Creature Commandos are sent in to keep the Afrika Corps off balance until reinforcements arrive. Did YOU know about this? Why wasn't this part in the history books??! Anyway, yadda yadda: an ancient gorgon pyramid tomb and some magic wine later, we have doll-sized monsters. All in a day's work for our "freaks."

Kanigher's newest new G.I. Robot, J.A.K.E. #1 meets up with our motley crew of monstrous misfits when they return to the South Pacific to investigate some mysterious attacks on Allied ships. The resulting adventure defies pithy blurb explanations!

We took to the YouTubes for the introduction of the newest Commando. If the goal was to tap into humanity's collective unconscious and use our most ancient and intuitive fears as a weapon against our enemies: it doesn't get much older or scarier than our newest "freak"... HISS HISS! You can watch the episode (w/ art included!) HERE.

We're joined by Ryan Pardee, co-host of The No Ticket Podcast, to talk about the final J.M. DeMatteis-written issue and the 1st issue from veteran comics writer Robert Kanigher. Remember the mission to find French scientist Dr. Frederique? That comes up again (cool!)...with some tragic consequences (sad!). Kanigher's story is 1 part The Dam Busters, 1 part Dr. Strangelove, and 1 part Force 10 from Navarone. Art by Dan Spiegle!

We're joined by friend of the show Grace to talk about 2 short and wild Creature Commandos stories from J.M. DeMatteis and Fred Carrillo. This one's got it all: super-strength brainwashed Nazi kids, latex masks, trapdoors, Hitler doubles, and a Norman Rockwell-esque village in upstate NY crawling with Axis sympathizers.  MAIL: [email protected]  STORE: https://bronzeagemonsters.threadless.com/ SUPPORT THE SHOW: https://www.patreon.com/BronzeAgeMonsters DISCORD: https://discord.gg/NcFaq9Ednq

Mike W. Barr takes up writing duties as Lt. Shrieve and his "Freaks" are deployed to Dinosaur Island from The War That Time Forgot stories of DC's past.

We'll be back next week with more Ulysses Bloodstone monster hunting action for our Patreon supporters.

We kick off our first non-Marvel season with TWO short stories from Weird War Tales: "The Creature Commandos!" and "The Faceless Enemy" written by J.M. DeMatteis with art from Pat Broderick, John Celardo, and Fred Carrillo.  The U.S. has created Project M to use man's inherent fear of monsters to give the Allies the advantage in the war against the Axis forces...with explosive results.  MAIL: [email protected]  STORE: https://bronzeagemonsters.threadless.com/ SUPPORT THE SHOW: https://www.patreon.com/BronzeAgeMonsters DISCORD: https://discord.gg/NcFaq9Ednq VM: 971-220-JUNK
