Ian Anderson

On this episode Matt and returning special guest co-host Ian Anderson flunk out of Arcade Officer Academy for not knowing how to handle a "hot program" - which is something they would've learned if they weren't too busy talking about 1993's WILDTHING #1. Who is Nikki Doyle? Is she the titular Wildthing? These are questions that will (possibly) be answered, but first Matt decides to share his aspirations of becoming his neighborhood's resident Doctor Doolittle and then mixes up the Pet Shop Boys with Erasure. Proving himself to be the more professional host, Ian comes to the episode having done actual research on WILDTHING and Marvel UK in general. So listen for his voice if you want to learn something. If you don't want to learn anything, then listen for Matt's voice because he's probably talking about Nightman or random comic strips from the mid-90's.

On this episode Matt and returning special guest co-host Ian Anderson travel to a dead planet in the butt end of the galaxy in order to talk about 1993's TRANSFORMERS GENERATION 2 #1. Ian recounts his earliest days on the information superhighway visiting Alt.Toys.Transformers, his love for both Galvatron, why BEAST WARS is still amazing, and how Transformers can be considered "gateway body horror". While Matt tries to become a more professional podcaster and (mostly) refrains from talking about GOBOTS. Also, it's a safe bet that Matt mentions Nightman again.

On this episode Matt and special guest co-host Ian Anderson send the old wizard calling on the bathroom mirror straight to voicemail so they can talk amongst themselves about 1992's INCREDIBLE HULK #400. Right off the bat, it's established that Matt is not Ian's dad. With that out of the way, Ian does an amazing...no, wait -- an INCREDIBLE job explaining the Hulk and his supporting cast (including the Pantheon) to Matt, who spends most of the episode wondering if he would look cool in purple pants. He's still undecided. Along the way, Matt and Ian reflect on how difficult it was in the 1990's to catch up on a title you got into late, and also that Chris Bachalo draws the best Hydra agents ever! Oh, and Matt talks about Nightman. Again. He has a problem.
