We’ve got a smorgasbord of strangeness this week with the Jeremy Corbyn colouring book, Anthony Burgess on pornography, DILF romances and eating books (literally). We also take a look at twenty allegedly helpful advisory tweets for writers that have been compiled into a “helpful” list. Our featured book is Eagle […]

4-Panel 95 – Superman’s Special Wink
We head into strange territory this week as Canada finally makes it legal to publish crime in comics. Sony offer “clean” versions of films that don’t need cleaning, and someone at an unnamed firm had a terrible idea for San Diego ComicCon involving women and latex. Our featured comics are […]
Cinema Eclectica 119 – The Superheroes’ Fountain of Eternal Youth
This week all of your questions will be answered. What films did Aidan and Ryan enjoy at the Edinburgh Film Festival? Who is the nicest carjacker? Which Clint Eastwood film is a secret remake of a dodgy ITV sitcom? That last one has some context (kind of), as our Film […]
S14E19 – Sunnycon 2017 Special
It’s that time of the year again. People are converging on a famous stadium in Newcastle wearing the costumes of their heroes. There’s a tense atmosphere in the air as everyone waits for the action to start, but this is no game of football because it’s Sunnycon time! Join the […]
4-Panel 94 – Mild Beryl’s Lovecraftian Overtones
So DC may be jumping on the slightly violent TV bandwagon with a possible Deathstroke series and Wizardworld announce their first inductee into their comic-book Hall of Legends. To say we disagree with their choice is kind of an understatement. Our featured comics are Valerian: The Complete Collection volume 1, […]
Keyframe 80 – Groundhog Day Fanfiction
Things get a little ranty this week as we try to work out if long-running shounen are still relevant, or if the desire to produce the next One Piece/Dragon Ball/Bleach/Naruto is nothing more than a false hope. Our featured anime are Little Busters! Refrain, Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Dark Side of Dimensions […]
Cinema Eclectica Minisode: Edinburgh International Film Festival 2017
Ryan and Aidan went to Edinburgh and all we got is this podcast minisode (we don’t think you’ll ever get that on a t-shirt). In this special edition of Cinema Eclectica we join them as they discuss Terence Malick’s “Song to Song”, the Irish medieval thriller “Pilgrimage”, Persona in Scotland […]
PX20 – E3 2017 Special
Now that the dust has settled it’s time to survey the wreckage left by the biggest gaming convention on the planet, which can only mean one thing. It’s time for our E3 special! We take a look at all the interesting happenings (including the Xbox One X and more), but […]
Cinema Eclectica 118 – Beachy Beachy Fun Times With The Rock
Rob and Graham go head to head after accidentally super-gluing their foreheads together. It’s a two-man show this week that starts with an uncharacteristically adorable preview before normal service resumes in Off the Shelf with the Western “One Eyed Jack’s” from Arrow Academy, the Eastern “Harmonium” from Eureka/Masters of Cinema, […]
4-Panel 93 – The Teleporter Made Me Do It
It’s all change in the world of superhero movies with Joss Whedon replacing Zack Snyder at the helm of Justice League, the possible addition of Namor and Beta Ray Bill to the MCU, and other stuff. Our featured comics are Rocket #1, Superwoman #1 to 10 and the Judge Dredd […]
