    A Retro Review of Spawn - Episode 3: Overkill

    In this episode of A Retro Review of Spawn, Casey and I dive into Spawn issues #5–8, continuing Al Simmons’ dark journey through the shadows of New York and the growing supernatural war around him. As the world of Spawn expands, new threats emerge, old mysteries deepen, and the consequences of Spawn’s deal become even clearer. We break down each issue, discuss the iconic covers and artwork from Todd McFarlane, share our favorite moments, and give our overall thoughts on this early stretch of the legendary comic series. Does this run still hold up? Join us as we head back to the longbox and find out. Official Ashton's NerdCave Theme by Ryan Willard, of Willard of Oz Studios!

    Late Fee Legends - The Lost Boys

    Sink your teeth into the premier episode of Late Fee Legends as we head to Santa Carla to revisit The Lost Boys! Lance and I break down everything from behind-the-scenes trivia and production stories to what still makes this cult classic hit (and what doesn’t quite hold up). We dive into the characters, the vampire lore, and the movie’s perfect mix of horror, humor, and ‘80s attitude. Of course, it wouldn’t be Late Fee Legends without some fun segments—so we imagine what kind of awesome action figures this movie could inspire, and we give plenty of love to that iconic soundtrack that helped define a generation. Whether you’re a longtime fan or a first-time visitor to Santa Carla, this episode is packed with nostalgia, laughs, and just the right amount of bite.
