ONE SHOT: Rob Liefelds Youngblood.
Friday Apr 26, 2019
Friday Apr 26, 2019
So we needed a buffer before we started another comic book run and after mulling it over we decided to take an objective look at Rob Liefelds controversial Youngblood series from 1992! The creator of Deadpool and Cable left Marvel comics to start the creator owned company Image comics with five other prominent artists and was the first to release a book for the company. How did it go? Was it as bad as everyone says? We dive into it and try to look for some good here. Dave also did a pouch count across the 11 issues and Jonathan and Chris play an exciting game of "Liefeld or Not"! We also reveal what our next Run is going to be!
Youngblood was originally published in
Youngblood (1992) Vol.1 Issues#0-10

The epilogue to the epilogue to the epilogue! Knightfall is over but 2 out of the 3 major players kind of just farted out of existence. What happened to Bane after he awoke from his coma? How did Jean Paul retake his Azrael mantle after becoming homeless and distraught? What was our final thoughts on this monumental run? I could spoil it for you or you could just listen to it.
Tune in next episode for a very special One-Shot episode on a book that is sure to frustrate everyone!

Dave is sick as hell but that wont stop us from seeing what appears to be the end of Azraels time as Batman, with the lowest of lows after the last few episodes this *has* to be good by default. Right? Come for the edge, stay for the confusing references to a villain that showed up for a few issues in the sword of Azrael mini-series that no one bothered to explain at the time!
Also Chris didn't join us for the initial recording but he shows up for a separate recording for his thoughts in the last 20 mins.

So how did Bruce Wayne rescue Doctor Kinsolving and Jack Drake? How did he heal his back? Lazarus Pit? You would think that! This story is so dreadful it made us excited to see Azrael show up. There is a reason this was never reprinted in trade format until recently!

The first DC / Marvel crossover in 10 years pits Azrael up against Punisher where they must join forces to foil a plot by all around crappy Punisher antagonist, Jigsaw, who wants to *squints at book* light the Gotham Reservoir on fire.................so he can build a new one and make money from it. I see.

Okay so 'The Crusade' is like 28 issues long and we needed a lot of time to read that stuff so in the mean time Dave and Jonathan look at the Bat-Mite parody book: "Mitefall" which came out after the whole saga finished. Is it as annoying as it sounds or was it actually enjoyable?
The books we look at are Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #38 and the Mitefall One-shot.

Sorry for the delay folks! This episode is all about the aftermath of Brucey baby dealing with chronic back pain and having some psycho nerd fill in for the mantle of the Batman and how absurd his judgement is.
Two Face has always sucked ass.
Oh we also talk about Chris going to an amateur porn festival right of the start so uh be aware of your surroundings when playing this.
