S01E10: Michael Myers Oct 29, 2016

Show notes

Michael Myers first appeared in John Carpenter’s classic horror movie Halloween in 1978. When we first meet Michael we are actually seeing through the child’s eyes. We’re not sure who this character is but it’s definitely creepy. He wanders through the house and picks up a clown mask and puts it on. We then see to those familiar plastic mask eye holes that we had back in the day.

S01E09: John Constantine Oct 29, 2016

Show notes

John Constantine is my favorite character in the DC Universe and in Comics in genera, and this week we'll be looking into his origins. John Constantine was created by writer Alan Moore and artists Steve Bissette and John Totleben and first appeared in The Saga of the Swamp Thing issue 37 back in 1985. The story goes that Bissette and Totleben were huge fans of The Police and really wanted to draw a character that resembled Sting. So Alan Moore obliged them and created the character of John Constantine, the quintessential anti-hero, mage, con-man change smoker that will always do what’s right...as long as it suits his purpose.
