Sharper than a Cyber-Razor Cut! This podcast is your online guide to the Sega-sational world of the 1990's and the UK's official Sega comic: Sonic The Comic. Join the humes who think they're in charge, Dave Bulmer (a.k.a. DemonTomatoDave on YouTube) and Chris McFeely (creator of Transformers: The Basics on YouTube), as they review each issue from cover to cover, adverts and all, and explain what it was really like to grow up with Sonic The Comic as a piece of culture. Sonic Boomers (that's you, listeners) may also expect the occasional tangent about other pieces of 90's UK culture such as Wool...

Episodes

#40 - Mentally Adding the Pie 19.11.2020

Sonic hopes for T-shirt weather, the Eternal Champions bow out, Gary Gygax fails to create an RPG, Tweety's identity is contested, the True Identity of the Red Ranger is revealed, and we find out the secret origin of Mobius Eggs. Plus! A weird Speedlines!

#39 - A Mass of Unwieldy Nonsense 05.11.2020

What's the most disgusting thing you can do with a chip? Why was there a Rambo cartoon? What do football fans famously talk like? We flat-out reject a Sonic strip. AND KNUCKLES!

#38 - Archer Maclean's Sonic the Comic - with Cat Kelly (@Wangleberry) 22.10.2020

It's Halloween! And it's Bonfire Night! So we bend our sparklers and start whanging them around, especially when we get to the Frosties competition. Plus: Sonic is good, and TAILS is good?? (Marked E, but still not very explicit.)

#37 - Telly's Good Sometimes 08.10.2020

Feeliman and Bulmamuffin are in the house, Zig and Zag sty-lee, here to talk about The Den, and rattle off references to Dragon's Eye, T-Bag and all that old people stuff. ALSO: a really really good Sonic strip and some READERS' LEGO!

#36 - The Tripledeckersaurus 24.09.2020

Robotnik finally captures the Chaos Emeralds in the finale of the Sonic 3 adaptation! But why are they so unstable? How many Space Aliens are there? What is Sonic the Comic called?? Find out in STCTP(tm), "It's even more exciting than a sudden willy!"

#35 - The Ultimate Question of This Podcast 11.09.2020

Would you let Porker Lewis perform brain surgery on you? Are you a Girl With Kitten or a Biker Figure? Join the only philosophy group you need as we discuss lines cut from Hook and who isn't in The Pagemaster. #knuckleswaspink

#34 - Sticker Zone 27.08.2020

Knuckles fights Sonic, Dave gets closure on a teenage mortification, the Chuckle Brothers look for droids, and we talk about our sticker-collecting days as STC provides us with not one, not two, but four free sticker albums (by mistake).

#33 - Pastille Day - with Richie Morgan (@wretchedmorgan) 13.08.2020

Knuckles is here, what else do you want? Well Richie's here as well, to discuss the time he heard Knuckles in the toilet & obscure flavours of Pastilles. Are you a Chinless Wonder? Have you ever eaten a penny sweet off a newsagent floor? (open for CW)

#32 - His Name is Mister Squirty 30.07.2020

What happens in this issue? I can't remember! I haven't had to edit this one, so it's all slipped out of my mind. But we have a whole section about Boots and squirty cream, and you like that don't you. You like that stuff. Plus, the first mention of S&K!

#31 - Everybody Is Just Splatty Splidges & Squidges 16.07.2020

It's a pop-packed episode this fortnight as the stars (plus one of the judges at a village fete in Skeggy) line up to cuddle Sonic and Tails at the Sega/Capital Radio Roadshow, but can you remember any of them? Plus: MUTANT LEAGUE begins; "North" is bad.

#30 - How Is It NOT A Pig? 03.07.2020

Lew Stringer packs a page and Mark Millar packs-in Rage. The 32X is revealed and the advertisers pull out - coincidence? Plus Pirate STC starts to genuinely wear Dave down. Plus we talk about Yikes! pencils, why not.

Poster Mag #5 - Snouty-Hooters 25.06.2020

A little nibble of a minisode as we cover the last of Summer 94's STC specials, a little-seen strip with a lot to offer - including the debut of Lew Stringer!

#29 - Tony the Tiger's Dimly-Lit Bedroom 18.06.2020

A mystery from the depths of the Aqutic Ruin Zone nopes out as soon as it's yepped in, Mark Millar straps a bomb to a man to a toilet, Tails goes "durr", and something presumably happens in Pirate STC. ON THE AMEEEE-GER!

Sonic the Summer Special - Sonic Used To Have a Bigger Chopper 12.06.2020

It's the summer of '94 and you're spending a lot of time bored in Nanna's living room while she chats to Mum in the kitchen, or stuck in the car on the way to Skeggy. So Fleetway gave us this magazine to pass some time. Featuring a special KNUCKLES strip!

#28 - Sonic Was Further Tortured 04.06.2020

White shorts on a Spurs kit, Denis? It's the FINAL PART of Sonic Terminator, and the first part of something very strange called Pirate STC. Plus: Footie kits, a footie kid in 3D and a feetie kid in need.

#27 - STRIKE ONE! With David Mariotte (@IDW_David_M) 21.05.2020

It's STC's (and STCTP's) first birthday! To mark the occasion, we've got a special guest to enjoy time travel shenanegans, the first time Sonic and Tails met, and the end of Wonder Boy: the current editor of Sega's official Sonic comic!

#26 - Every Fold and Crevice of his Pork - With Anna (@BootsMcGoot)! 07.05.2020

Sonic CD begins in earnest as Sonic sends this issue up the chain; Dave gets counter-pranked on the Isle of Wight; Streets of Rage gets REAL; Megadrives on planes; Hulk gets specific and Porker gets NUDE.

#25 - The Reverse Bonkum Machine - with Sooz Kempner (@soozuk) 23.04.2020

Captain Plunder's got the Chaos Emeralds and his ship turns out to be flying! Streets of Flippin Rage is back! And: we find out what / where Sonic's World is and what / where is the Bum Bit.

Poster Mag #4 - Starring Shinobi 16.04.2020

A brief tussle with Joe Musashi between episodes.

#24 - A Suggestion of Cleft - with Sonic artist Abby Bulmer (@abbyryder) 10.04.2020

He approaches! It's The Sonic Terminator: part 1. But who (Metal Sonic) is the mysterious figure stalking the comic?? (It's Metal Sonic.) Also, Eternal Champions & Shinobi end, a "video comic" intrigues, and Golden Axe goes to the seaside.

#23 - Swapping Shinies 26.03.2020

The Real STC is here! This fortnight, POLYGONS have been invented, and are coming to the "Saturn"?? Cap'n Plunder wobbles his ugly chops, the Champions show us their guns, and Shinobi cheats his way to the top. Plus: a good Wonder Boy!

#22 - More Like a Biology Lesson 12.03.2020

Robotnik emerges from his Regeneration Egg, and we review an impossible joystick in a News Zone almost entirely stuffed with things that never happened. It's utterly hatstand! (There's one procedurally generated f-word at the very end, parental boomers!)

STCTP - The Movie! 08.03.2020

It finally happened, and we couldn't just NOT do an episode. Sonic has a movie, and not just two obscure VHS tapes slammed together this time. We're joined by Jehan (@maustallica) from Serious Disness, for a special crossover episode! Nnnnaaaaiiiled it!!

Eternal Champions Special 05.03.2020

STC releases a spin-off publication to promote Sega's upcoming fighting game, convinced it's going to be the thing to take down Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat.

#21 - Smurf Archists 28.02.2020

The real STC starts here! It's the big one, as Amy Rose enters the comic, and with her comes the Kintobor Computer, Grimer, and a new start for Dr Robotnik. Not a new series, call it a "regeneration". Plus: can you trust kids with a small green frisbee?
