Being a huge Punisher fan, I was wondering how this would turn out . . . and to be honest, I am pretty happy with it. I would have dropped “Circle of Blood” and “Long Cold Dark” for sure, adding “Punisher Kills The Marvel Universe” and a gem of two issue arc that I am blanking on the name, but has Punisher having to team up with a scumbag to fight his way out of an illegal pit fight he drops into on accident. “Slavers” is great #1 spot, and to be perfectly honest, I am surprised it is up there that far. Oh well, guess others are just as fucked up as me!

Just in case you missed this little gem from several years back, this was an un-authorized film made using Batman characters and some good twists at the end for fans of horror and sci fi!
Sorry for the late episode (sickeness, yadda yadda), but it just means you get another one sooner! Weed and John take a look at DV8 and have a ton of fun checking it out, then talk about some of the comics they checked out that they picked up at C2E2.
Unearthing is an audio and visual project uniting legendary comic book writer Alan Moore, award-winning photographer Mitch Jenkins and a cast of high-caliber musicians. A bewitching story written and narrated by Moore set against an epic score from musicians including Adam Drukker & Andy Broder (aka. Crook&Flail) Mike Patton, Stuart Braithwaite, Zach Hill and Justin Broadrick.
Alan Moore is best known for his groundbreaking graphic novels The Watchmen, V For Vendetta, From Hell and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. These, along with work for 2000 AD and DC Comics, have established him as one of the most influential and important writers in the history of comics. His output has sold in the millions, lead to numerous awards and been adapted for feature films – Moore has even made a cameo appearance in The Simpsons.
The musical score for Unearthing is produced by Crook&Flail, a partnership between Andrew Broder and Adam Drucker. Broder is the multi-instrumentalist behind the band Fog whilst Drucker’s adventures under his Doseone solo guise – and within cLOUDDEAD, Themselves and Subtle – have seen him explore spoken word and the outer reaches of rap. Together the pair have enlisted an impressive array of talented collaborators, including; Stuart Braithwaite of Scottish post-rockers Mogwai, drummer Zach Hill from acclaimed experimental band Hella, the trailblazing and prolific Justin Broadrick of Napalm Death, Godflesh and Jesu and pioneering alt-rock hero and Faith No More frontman Mike Patton.
