somfrc013

Kids run away for lots of reasons, but most of the time it’s because they find out their parents are supervillains, right? Right?

Brian K. Vaughan (Saga, Y: The Last Man, Ex Machina) brings us one of Marvel’s most original superhero teams since the 60’s and one of the greatest entry points for any reader into the wonderful world of comic books.

AMFARH 031 – Trapped on a Deserted Island

amfarh-031

It’s a question that’s plagued men and women for centuries: If you were stranded on a deserted island, what pop culture artifacts would you take with you? What book would you take with you? What movie, TV season, videogame, and music album would you bring along?

In this episode, be prepared for such debates as, would you take Lost with you if you were trapped on a deserted island? Also, two guys with lit degrees argue over who really wrote Jane Eyre, and Kia reminds us of that time Buddy Rich had a drum-off with the Muppets’ Animal.

That Was a Game 001 – James Bond 007 (Game Boy)

I am very pleased to announce THAT WAS A GAME – the newest show on the All My Friends Network!

THAT WAS A GAME is our first video series, specifically looking at odd uses of classic IPs and licenses in videogame form.  On our first episode, we look at 1998’s “James Bond 007”, a Game Boy game made in the wake of the Nintendo 64’s “Goldeneye 007”.

James Bond 007 is a very odd game, and it shares more in common with The Legend of Zelda than Goldeneye.  On THAT WAS A GAME, we explore what makes the game so odd and recommend if it’s worth your time.

Please sound off in the comments what games you’d like to see, and what you’d like to see more of!

Saturday Night Love – S41E01 – Miley Cyrus

snl41-01

We’re back for a brand new season of Saturday Night Love (formerly known as Tuesday Morning Pod)!  In our season premiere, we barely talk about Miley Cyrus, but instead talk about Taran Killam’s new Donald Trump impression, conning our brother’s husband out of his money, and how Scott thinks all white people look the same.  And we may get a little political!

I ain’t afraid of no Josts!

In the Criminal Justice System, the super-people gotta deal with two separate, yet equally important groups. The Top Ten precinct and their dog-boss who investigate the super-crimes and the shark-people who do a terrible job of trying to defend them. This is Alan Moore’s story.

DUN DUN.

Some of My Friends Read Comics 011 – Superman: Red Son

Boy, America sure did luck out when Superman landed here, right? This friggin’ alien could have landed ANYWHERE ELSE on Earth! How much would that have sucked? Especially if he had landed in the hands of one of our enemies… like stupid Communist Russia. Imagine how terrible that would have been!

Actually, don’t imagine it, just read Superman: Red Son to see how it would’ve gone down (with 100% historical accuracy).
