Young and old love Smash Up, which is probably why we decided to play the expansion What Were We Thinking?

By combining this expansion with your smash up sets, will you take Zombie rock stars against Explorer dinosaurs? what about time travelling grannies versus teddy bear vampires? it's all possible now! all your dreams can finally come true! smash up: what were we thinking also marks the release of the 50th faction in this smash-hit line (Haha, get it? smash? smash hit yeah.).

Wayne’s Comics Podcast #304: Zach Davis Nov 19, 2017

Show notes

This week in Episode 304, I feature a great chat I recently had with comics creator Zach Davis, who is bringing out a new Crimson Rider comic. Zach shared several pages from the premiere issue with me, and I really liked this excellent “crime western” comic. You’ll hear us discuss the fascinating origin to this concept, which really intrigued me, as well as how he brought the team together to work on this series, what we can expect from Crimson Rider in the near future, and how the concept’s past may influence its future! To learn more about Zach and this comic, be sure to go to his website by clicking on this link. It’s another fun conversation about comics and creating them, so don’t miss it!

**Action Comics #309**
**The Superman Super-Spectacular!**

**w: Edmond Hamilton**
**a: Curt Swan**
When Our American Heroes, a TV show honoring great Americans by reuniting them on air with their old acquaintances, honors Superman in such fashion, he is perplexed as to how he will find someone to portray Clark Kent and thus throw suspicion off his double identity.

Later, Superman tells JFK that he knows his secret identity is safe with him. **- DC Wikia**

**The Mutiny of the Legionnaires!**
**March 1964**
**w: Edmond Hamilton**
**a: John Forte**
While Mon-El and Superboy continue to pierce the "Iron Curtain of Time" that the Time Trapper has put over a future era, Cosmic Boy and Sun-Boy agree to help the population of a dieing world to relocate to a new home world. Recruiting other Legion members (Light Lass, Matter-Eater Lad, Triplicate Girl, Lightning Lad and Star Boy), they load up a giant space craft with the alien race.

Along their voyage in space, the pressure of leadership gets the best of Sun-Boy who begins to strictly reprimand his fellow Legion members. Believing them to all be mutineers, Sun-Boy has the robots controlling the ship force his teammates into an escape ship and crashes it on the doomed planet. The doomed Legion members fight off various threats until they come across an ancient space craft which they cannibalize for spare parts to make their escape ship space worthy. Learning from the Science Police that Sun-Boy never met his destination, the Legion goes into space to search for him.

They eventually find Sun-Boy's ship, and a catatonic Sun-Boy on board. Returning him to Earth and getting him examined by doctors, they realize his behavior was cause from too much time in space. After Sun-Boy is cured, the Legion enact new measures limiting the amount of space missions a Legion member can take for the sake of their health. **- DC Wikia**
