UNDERTOW #1
Writer: Steve Orlando
Artist: Artyom Trakhanov
Publisher: Image Comics
Cover Price: $2.99
Atlantis is the world superpower, and Redum Anshargal is its worst enemy. If you want to break free of the system, he can offer you a place at his side, exploring the wild surface world in his watertight city barge The Deliverer. He and his hostage-protege Ukinnu Alal hunt the Amphibian, a legend that could be the key to an air-breathing life on land. But as they become the hunted, can Anshargal’s team survive long enough to turn the tables on the godlike beast they set out for?

A brand new pulp monster adventure with Ray Harryhausen at its heart and a look at Atlantis like never before from the up-and-coming team of writer STEVE ORLANDO (Mystery in Space) and artist ARTYOM TRAKHANOV.

Major Spoilers Poll of the Week
Who’s the best shapeshifter?
This week, we dive back into the mailbag to see what kind of Poll of the Week suggestions we’ve received. One of our favorite Spoilerites, Silvergray wanted to pitt Martian Manhunter against Mystique, which is a really good pairing, but instead of having them fight to the death, we present a different take on the match up.

Zach on... Toys? LEGO Everywhere - A Want List Audio Podcast Pilot Episode Feb 13, 2014

Show notes

There's no Zach on Film this week, and we really feel bad about it. And to show that we are always working on things behind the scenes, this week, Zach sat down to record a demo/pilot episode of a show that might make it into the Major Spoilers Podcast Network of shows. Zach takes on Toys this week!

Keep in mind this is a pilot episode that doesn't have all the polish and shine that a full episode would have. It is simple done to present an idea or a concept for us to build upon in the future.

Use the comment section below, or send an email to podcast@majorspoilers.com to give your feedback on this potential new show.

Now an ongoing series! This is it the thrilling conclusion to the first arc! The Sons of Anarchy have no where to run, and the Ghost Brothers have every upper hand. With the very status of the club at stake, and the memory of his dead daughter still achingly fresh, Tig must find a way to protect Kendra and protect the club...but for once, those aims may be at odds.

ULTRAKYLE
Created by Don Edwards
Kyle is a normal kid who comes into possession of what he thinks is a magic pen… bringing everything he draws to incredible life and reality. It isn't until after a bit of doodling that he discovers (not in a nice way) that what he is in possession of is a device sought after by warlords and alien empires all through the universe. It carries the promise of omnipotence and devastation to whoever wields it.

Major Spoilers Poll of the Week
There are a number of big pop culture movies hitting theaters between now and September 2014, and an impressive number of movies based on properties that have appeared in the pages of comic books for years. It’s going to be an expensive summer if we plan on hitting all of these flicks, but there has to be one you are more interested in seeing above all others.

Munchkin Land #71 - The Good, The Bad, and The Apocalypse Feb 10, 2014

Show notes

Munchkin is a dedicated deck card game by Steve Jackson Games, written by Steve Jackson and illustrated by John Kovalic, that has a humorous take on role-playing games.

This week on Munchkin Land - Zach sends everyone to the apocalypse... in the Ol' West!

Warning: Some explicit language in this episode (Thanks Rob).

The Good, the Bad, and the Munchkin opens a whole new frontier - the Wild West! Forget dragons and goblins - Jackalopes and Davy Croc have just as much treasure. Those plains may seem wide open, but there's lots of monsters to kill, and lots of stuff to take. The Good, the Bad, and the Munchkin is the next stand-alone game in the award-winning Munchkin line. Steve Jackson and John Kovalic have teamed up again to put puns to paper like no one else can. Head 'em up and move 'em out, and get ready to wander the Grim Roper into somebody else's combat and make him "Rootin' Tootin'" for +10 . . .

In Munchkin Apocalypse, every possible natural and unnatural disaster has happened. You are a rugged survivor in a world full of people and things that want to kill you and take your stuff. So do it to them first. And what's with all these seals running around? Don't they know the world's about to end? You should keep an eye on that seventh one in particular.
