Earth-2.net Presents...

Before discussing another batch of episodes of The Zeta Project ("Hunt in the Hub," "Ro's Gift," "Lost and Found," "Eye of the Storm" and "Quality Time"), a listener asks Mike his opinion about Dick Grayson becoming Batman. And the answer might surprise you.

This time around Dan and Mike discuss British superheroes smashing Ditko-esque demons (Captain Britain and MI13: Hell Comes to Birmingham), an alternate reality where the nights are hot and the dames are hotter (X-Men Noir) and a charming mass murderer who needs to borrow your face (Terror, Inc.).

In this episode of Dread Media, things go rather smoothly for an episode with a curse theme. Desmond and Darryll bring back the Roadkill Review for Sam Raimi's return to horror, Drag Me To Hell. Then Desmond goes solo on the indie B-movie Blood Scarab, and the Japanese head-scratcher Battle Heater. Most importantly, your gracious host goes through tons of feedback and begins the podcast with a tal...

In Green Lantern #9, Sinestro makes a bid to destroy the Guardians as we're deluged with wacky Lanterns from all planets, and Sue Williams shows us why she may very well be the single most misguided woman in the DC Universe. (The fact that she looks to Lois Lane for romantic advice might be an indicator.)

Desmond made a bit of a mistake during Dread Media 92, and he wanted to correct it before the next episode.

In this week's horror-comedy episode of Dread Media, Desmond Reddick sits down with Darryll to check out one of the funniest films of all time: Young Frankenstein. Then Desmond goes solo on two zom-coms, Tokyo Zombie and RetarDEAD, before checking out a couple of comics: Hotwire: Requiem for the Dead #3 and Poe #1. The following songs will be heard before you see them coming: "He's Loose" from the...

The Doctor and Steven find themselves in the middle of a religious purging, one they cannot stop no matter how much they long to ("The Massacre"). And after picking up a new companion named Dodo, the trio lands on a spaceship containing the last survivors of the human race ("The Ark").

In Batman & Robin: The Case of the Laughing Sphinx and Superman: From Krypton to Metropolis, two Fisher-Price storybooks, you'll hear the amazing origins of Robin and Superman!

As James and Mike review the next batch of episodes from The Zeta Project ("Ro's Reunion," "Kid Genius," "Absolute Zero," "Wired" and "Resume Mission"), they give both the highest and lowest scores for the show thus far.

In this comedy-horror themed episode of Dread Media, Desmond Reddick interviews the comedy-horror author Jeff Strand, and then goes on to review his comedy-horror novel Benjamin's Parasite. Then, Darryll and Des sit down to review the romantic comedy-horror film Shaun of the Dead before checking out some feedback on listeners' favorite comedy-horrors. Plus, listen to these comedy-horror tracks: "F...

In this episode, a mad scientist with a steel hand, his guilty sister, and some nameless goof plan to shrink Captain America down to size. Literally. Believe it or not, Tales of Suspense #69 is pretty good.

May 1984 saw the release of Secret War #1, the first chapter in what would become the 12-part series that defined comic book events. Now, 25 years later, Dan Toland and Michael Sims discuss the impact the limited series had on superhero comic books. (Oh, and they also discuss the less successful and totally abysmal follow-up, Secret War II.)

Eventually death catches up with everyone, even superheroes. But in comic books, death isn't always permanent. Today, Des and Mike discuss the impact death has on comic book characters and the superhero genre.

In Green Lantern #8, Green Lantern is snatched away from battling a sea monster to the 58th century, given a new identity, and fights giant Gila monsters who shrink people with their eyes. I have no idea what John Broome was smoking, either.

Mike has a thing or two to say about a play he recently suffered through, then he and Jenny read through the May Previews catalog. After that, Ian Wilson pops by with his thoughts about X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

In this slashertastic episode of Dread Media, Desmond Reddick sits down with Darryll to review the downbeat and dark Dead Man's Shoes before going solo on three more slasher films: Laid to Rest, Spiker and Secrets of the Clown. Then he reviews the long-awaited graphic novel adaptation of Clive Barker's short story Age of Desire from Desperado Publishing. There's feedback and more as we start the c...

Great characterization, wonderful pacing, solid acting, the painful deaths of not one but three companions, the awesomeness of the Daleks and the unexpected return of an old foe come together to make "The Dalek's Master Plan" one of the best Doctor Who stories to date.

This week, Agent West nearly redeems himself ("Westbound"), Ro attempts to impress her first foster family ("Hicksburg"), Zeta has to fend off Infiltration Unit 7 and Batman ("Shadows"), the duo gets mixed up in a kidnapping ("Crime Waves") and then they have to escape both the NSA and a bounty hunter ("Taffy Time").

In an episode of Dread Media that is as confused about itself as the films it covers, Desmond Reddick praises his new favorite film JCVD before sitting down with Darryll to analyze David Fincher's Zodiac. Then he champions the independent supernatural Native American thriller Imprint. Check out these three reviews and listen to the following tunes: "I'm Gonna Kick Your Ass" by The Moistboyz, "Zodi...

Tales of Suspense #68 ends the first Captain America three-part story, where The Red Skull abandons his plan to assassinate the allied commander by, well, telling some nameless Nazi thug to steal a vanishing ray. Please be sure to visit Michael J. Bailey's Views from the Longbox at http://fortressofbaileytude.com/viewsfromthelongbox.

Dan and Mike present another installment of Waiting for the Trade, and this time they discuss world-destroying monsters (Hulk: World War Hulk), vampire-slaying vampire slayers (Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Time of Your Life) and Nazi-punching robots (Atomic Robo: Dogs of War).

In this episode, Hal's nightmare turns Tom Kalmaku into a seagull, which interferes with the mechanic's rendezvous with his childhood sweetheart. Oh, and some guy named Sinestro makes his debut in this issue: Green Lantern #7.

In this huge episode of Dread Media, Desmond and Darryll take a look at the recent Blu-ray release of Hellraiser as part of the Anchor Bay Lament Configuration Box Set before Desmond does a track-by-track review of the new album by Heaven and Hell, The Devil You Know. Desmond comes back to talk about a bunch of comics including Simon Dark, Captain Britain and MI-13, Battle for the Cowl: Arkham Asy...

As a planet is set to die, the Doctor discovers that he shouldn't judge races by beauty ("Galaxy 4"). The crew then takes a week off as hapless humans are exterminated by the Daleks ("Mission to the Unknown"). And lastly, the Doctor influences the outcome of the Trojan War ("The Myth Makers").

Today you'll hear the last two episodes of the Fantastic Four radio show: "In the Clutches of Doctor Doom" and "A Super-Skrull Walks Among Us."
