Kaiju ComicCast!

Kaiju ComicCast is back!

Doug Fink of Glitterjaw (Skreeonk, Falling with Style, Novel Gaming, Walloping Websnappers) returns to talk about the first ongoing Godzilla series from IDW. Lots to talk about, loads of topical references, and we dive into the humor of this story and whether it truly lands or not.

NOTE: Russ's audio is wonky on this one, but the conversation is so good we couldn't scrap it!

Want a taste of what bonus content there is to come on the Kaiju ComicCast Patreon? Here's your first taste! It's a Patreon Appetizer, as Russ sits down with Derek and Doug (of Skreeonk, Walloping Websnappers, and more from the GlitterJaw podcasting collective) to discuss an Ultraman double feature.

Derek and Doug have limited knowledge of Ultraman, so Russ decided to throw them right in the deep end with the debut of the villainous Ultraman Belial!

Hear what is planned for the future of Kaiju ComicCast!

It doesn't get more metal than this. GODZILLA.IN.HELL. A unique miniseries from IDW, with a different creative team on each issue, Godzilla encounters some familiar faces and some deadly demonic foes in this chaotic story.

Joining Russ on this one is scholar Alex Adams, who's currently writing GODZILLA: A Critical Demonology. We REALLY dig deep into this book, discussing themes and allegory.

One of the best Kaiju ComicCast episodes yet!

Happy Godzilla Day! To celebrate, I've crafted something special. I wanted to not only honor Godzilla, but also the medium of comics AND some folks that have helped me tremendously this year.

It's an audio recreation of "In the Shadow of a God" by Donny Winter and Matt Frank from the IDW Godzilla 70th Anniversary One-Shot.

Edited by Russ

Starring: Jacqueline P F

Godzilla is the property of TOHO, this is merely a fan project meant to say THANK YOU.

By Odin's BEARD! Godzilla battles the Mighty Thor in this INSANE one-shot. And its not just ANY Godzilla, its GMK Godzilla. Oof..

Skreeonk hosts Derek and Doug return to discuss the Power Rangers! Go Go Power Rangers is chronologically first in Boom's Power Rangers reading order, and expands on the characters from the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers show. We discuss the Power Rangers history in comics, PR vs. Super Sentai, and Russ keeps bringing up Lord Zedd (who does not appear in this comic) for some reason!

Ultraman finally makes his debut on Kaiju ComicCast, but not in the way most people know him. My friend Letty makes her podcasting debut to discuss this somewhat divisive interpretation of Japan's greatest superhero.

We're highlighting another indie Kickstarter campaign this week. What do you get when you combine elements of Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, and Ultraman?

Russ sits down with the two writers of the book, James Santana and Hunter Van Lierop, to talk about their history with Toku and comics, as well as their process and influences for the book.

At the time of this release, there's still plenty of time to back this book

Here's something a little different for this episode, we're talking about a current Kickstarter campaign for a wonderful indie comic. Kaijus & Cowboys is a space western that mashes up Daikaiju with robotic cowboys, starring a mash-up between Clint Eastwood's Man with No Name & Jet Jaguar...I'm not even kidding. It's that awesome.

Joining me for this chat are the creators themselves, Writer Matthew Blair and artist Frankie B Washington. We learn their origins with the medium and kaiju, as well as their previous works and the process behind bringing this space epic to life.<...

Kaiju ComicCast welcomes back its first returning guest with Hamish Steele, this time talking about his very own comic! The highly anticipated Go-Man: Champion of Earth is out now, and Russ gets to pick Hamish's brain about the inspirations and processes going into crafting this ode to Tokusatsu.
