Welcome back dear listeners as you join your heroes on a journey straight to hell itself. Follow your hosts as they make the most perilous journey through middle America to hunt down the son of Marvels (not the) 'devil' Mephisto and uncover the nefarious plot of his 'son' blackheart to take down him down. Only wolverine, Ghost Rider and, obviously the Punisher, can take him down.
Bear witness as your favourite podcast tried to answer the questions only it can! Such as; Why can't Punisher see what's right in front of him? Is a pencil moustache a valid aid fool-proof disguise? Why does blackheart like Ghost Riders bike so much? And is this episode too short?
Listen as these questions and more are mostly answered as Sleeves and Galactosh read Marvels "Hearts of Darkness".

Time to (temporarily) break from our love affair with the 1990s, delve into the previous decade and visit a character Galactosh really does not care for, a book he's never heard of, but one Sleeves has been meaning to read for ages. DC's Green Arrow... is basically robin hood right? Well, hopefully we can answer that as we read and discuss the book that reinvented him for the modern age and launch hes very first solo title. A story of drugs smuggling rackets, rogue CIA agents, serial killers, Yakuza Assassins, Iranian arms deal, and coked up fish! And maybe even a love story about two heroic love birds, a guy who dresses like 'Robin' Hood and a gal that calls herself Black 'Canary'. Join us as we read Green Arrow: The Longbow Hunters.

Transformers... THE Transformers the original Marvel run that started it all (sure there was a cartoon too but that was rubbish... kids stuff) is a bit of an obsession for Sleeves. He's collected all the Marvel UK comics, he's started a substack on the subject. So we thought we'd ingluge the little scamp and discuss a few issues of the comic, just a small number... four... keep it light. What followed was over 3 hours of robot related rambling too long to be contained in just one episode. So we split it in two... and this is the second part.
Reforming the same band of contributors that brought you an overstuffed look at Skybound's Transformers relaunch last year, Sleeves, Galactosh and special guests Virtual Dave and Michael Quintesson pore over the pages of The Transformers issues 5 to 8 reprinted in issues 22 to 28 of Marvel UK's fortnightly larger format comic. We join the story as Shockwave takes command of the Decepticons and begins his plans to conquer the earth one Blackrock facility at a time, learn why Optimus Prime's head is no longer on his body, why Buster Witwicky is having a lot of headaches, how the Dinobot came to be on earth, what the rite of oneness is and why Ratchet must learn to become a warrior!

In this months episode of We've Got Back Issues we invite you to peruse the pages of Michael Allred's surrealist superhero creation Madman! Join us as we travel to Snap City where a mad scientist named Dr Egon Boiffard cobbles a guy together from corpses bring him back to life. Where the self-replicating robot creations Dr Gellespie Flem wander aimlessly through the sewers, where Mott from the Planet Hoople didges the advances of a lovelorn alien cannibal. Where G-men from hell give out hero Frank Einstein the creeps, where self replicating robots run wild in the sewers, Were metaphysical philosophy and traveling circuses on cruise ships meet. Where 1950s science fiction films is and rock and roll pop music are melted down into a heady brew... it's should proved to be rather neato and certianly decidedly ginchy.
Don't believe in yourself,
Don't deceive with belief,
Knowledge comes with death's release

Welcome back listeners to this month's instalment of We've got back issues.
This time, your heroes, Sleeves and Galactosh, are travelling back in time to the beginning of the Marvel Empire. And it's a very different time indeed.
War is on the horizon in Europe, but over in America, they're more interested in the deeds of comic characters. Maybe not so different after all....
Join the lads as they overcome different standards of both politics and storytelling as they try to answer various questions such as; why are everyone called rats? Why do things just happen? Can you tell the same story more than once in the same comic? Is this racist? Is this sexist? Was every character a psychopath in the 30's? Can everything be solved by melting it?
All these questions and more will be answered as you listen the boys discussing Marvel Comics #1 in the latest, greatest installment of We've got back issues.
