The Ani-Gamers Podcast Where We Don’t Talk About Anime or Games

Leave a comment

Just before New York Comic Con, Evan asked me about being on a special episode of Ani-Gamers to talk about American comics that might appeal to anime and manga fans. I’ve always been interested in doing something like this, have actually thought about a panel at conventions in fact, but just hadn’t pushed myself into it. So this was a perfect opportunity and with the high of NYCC going in, I was all hype for American comics! If there is one thing I hope people take away from this podcast is that there is a variety of American comic genres far beyond big superheroes. Expect to hear more from me on this topic in the future.

S.W.A.T. Reviews: Autumn 2012 Pt. 4

2 Comments

The premise of these reviews is simple: watch the first episode of a series and then immediately sit down to record a review mini-podcast. The reviews are five- to ten-minutes long and entirely off the cuff. As always we only review new shows (so no sequels or continuations) and try to avoid anything that just looks outright awful. Here are our last 5 of the new season:

The Speakeasy #034: Monster Mash, A Warning to Those Who Fight Monsters

Drink #034: Monster Mash,
A Warning to Those Who Fight Monsters

All Hallows’ Eve is when the most dreaded monsters stalk the Earth as the veil between this world and the next is thinned by the autumnal equinox (and we’re not talking about girls in trollopy versions of traditional costumes). In honor of this, we are looking at the monsters, ghouls, ghosts, goblins, demons, and yokai of shonen fighting. It is one thing to fight a guy with a magic sword but it is a completely other thing to fight an eldritch abomination. So get your best shinigami scythe, your priest’s robe, and delve into the world of darkness. Bustin’ makes me feel good.
