  1. Two #Omnibus

    #SubMariner & Conan

    Sub cover is a mislead as that is a cover from the later series #1 by the Big John, but the omni is mostly about the earlier material. This is an epic cover though. The other one is the short lived CB continuation series from the 90s.

    SSOC was still alive when this one is in print, but Rafael Kayanan might be a mislead. It is also in color. There is a French cartoon with the same name.

  4. Robotech the Macross Saga with DC Dave (The Monitor Tapes)

    If you’ve ever dreamed of piloting a transforming jet while sorting through a love triangle and dodging alien laser fire, then without knowing it you’ve been living in the Robotech: The Macross Saga timeline. Chris dusts off his Game Boy Advance for this one, only to find that the same intergalactic mess has crash-landed again, this time in crisp Switch resolution. Because nothing says “future of gaming” like revisiting a handheld title from an era when batteries were a personality trait.

    Helping navigate this space-time crossover is DC Dave from The Monitor Tapes, swooping in with the kind of insight only a seasoned comic podcaster can offer. Together, they dissect what happens when ’80s anime melodrama meets early 2000s portable gaming. And spoiler alert: there are missiles, misunderstood heroes, and at least one existential crisis per level. And yes, they both have Opinions™ about which version of Rick Hunter handles better.

    So grab your nearest mecha (or whatever piece of furniture doubles as one), set your thrusters to “nostalgia,” and dive into a world where pixelated warfare meets the stirring strains of synth-pop destiny. Whether you’re a die-hard Robotech purist, a Switch newcomer, or just here for DC Dave’s hot takes, this episode’s got something for every flavor of space soap enthusiast.

    Learn such things as:

    • What does it takes to make a side-scrolling shooter feel like an interstellar soap opera?
    • How did licensing rights in the ’80s created a cosmic headache that still echoes today?
    • When you have giant fighting robots, do you really need to add all of the war allegory?
    • And so much more!

    You can find DC Dave on BlueSky @dcdavepodcast, and of course under his podcast The Monitor Tapes on BlueSky @themonitortapes.

    If you want to hear Chris talk with Karrington Martin about the lessons we learned from children’s media and how crazy it is that we’re supposed to just forget about that now that we’re adults, then Sugar, Spite, and Everything is Fine is probably something you should check out.

  5. Robotech Battlecry with SP Rupert (The Gonna Geek Show, Legends of S.H.I.E.L.D., Better Podcasting, Artie’s Attic)

    Prepare for takeoff, fellow gamers! This week on Play Comics, we’re blasting off into the world of Robotech: Battlecry, where you can pilot a Veritech fighter and save the universe while trying not to crash into your own nostalgia! Join us as we follow Jack Archer on his epic quest to defend Earth from those pesky Zentraedi, all while dodging missiles and mastering the art of transforming from jet to robot (and back again) without losing our lunch.

    Joining the mission is none other than SP Rupert from The Gonna Geek Show, Legends of S.H.I.E.L.D. d Better Podcasting, and Artie’s Attic, bringing his signature wit and insight to help us navigate the skies of nostalgia and questionable early-2000s graphics. Will we earn our medals, or will the Zentraedi laugh us out of orbit? Tune in to find out! Or don’t, it’s not like you’re going to start an intergalactic space war or anything……..

    Learn such things as:

    • Is Robotech more of a salad or a multi layer dip?
    • Hey, isn’t this based on an “original” anime?
    • How do you convince someone that this is the giant fighting robot series that they should love?
    • And so much more!
