Episode 4: Monsters Attack!

In this episode of the podcast, we take a look at Monsters Attack! magazine  - a short run horror magazine from 1989/1990. Monsters Attack! was a spinoff of Cracked magazine and an homage to the popular monster magazines and horror comics of the 1950s and 60s. In this episode we discuss the inspirations from Monsters Attack!, horror hosts, the quick downfall of Monsters Attack!, what the magazine did well and what it could have done better. We even end up with a TOP FIVE best things about Monsters Attacks!  Included is a conversation with Gillman Joel, who sneaks into the sleepover to steal our grandma's stale Marlboro cigarettes!
