    Best Event Ever! Underworld Unleashed #2 (Dec. 1995)

    ITG is back with another participatory episode in this year's #BestEventEver blog/podcast team-up!  For the past 3 years, a loose confederation of comics bloggers & podcasters has gotten together to jam on one of DC Comics' annual x-over events - and this year, we've decided to dig deep into 1995's Underworld Unleashed! The UU story, which shined a light on the villains of the DCU, ran through a 3 issue core mini series & over 40 tie-ins throughout the DC line.  On this episode, I'll be recapping issue #2 of Underworld Unleashed, in which Neron momentarily turns his gaze away from the villains, and instead focuses on DC's greatest heroes! Download this episode HERE! And please be sure to check out further Underworld Unleashed coverage at these fine sites: Relatively Geeky Podcast Network  Resurrections: An Adam Warlock/Thanos Podcast  The Retroist ChrisIsOnInfiniteEarths Cosmic Treadmill The Pop Culture Palace Rolled Spine's Diana Prince: Wonder Woman Podcast The Idol-Head of Diabolu Justice's First Dawn Comic Reviews by Walt Justice Trek: The Podcast Scroll down to see a few images from these issues below, and check out previous episodes of I'm the Gun on iTunes & Google Play! Thanks for listening! Music used in this episode: (Every Day Is) Halloween by Ministry; Hell by Squirrel Nut Zippers  Leave it to the Joker to sell his soul for a box of cigars . . . Neron tempts Superboy . . . with a red herring This sort of wide-screen epic violence would prefigure Howard Porter's upcoming run on JLA This scan really doesn't do justice to the neon green of the captured 'soul stuff' Some big names . . . and some crowd-scene fillers. Hey, I think I see Argus! The shadow of Neron's true form flickering platonically on a cave wall

    Best Event Ever! Underworld Unleashed - Starman #13 & Showcase '95 #12 (Nov.-Dec. 1995)

    I'm thrilled to once again participate in what's become a fun annual tradition, the #BestEventEver blog/podcast team-up!  For the past 3 years, a loose confederation of comics bloggers & podcasters has gotten together to jam on one of DC Comics' annual x-over events - and this year, we've decided to dig deep into 1995's Underworld Unleashed! The villains of the DCU got a chance to shine during this event, and some pretty interesting match-ups came about between the villains & some unfamiliar opponents throughout the DC line.  Case in point, on of the 2 stories I'll be recapping & commenting on: retired Golden Age hero, Ted Knight (formerly Starman) takes on infrequent Batman foe, Dr. Phosphorus in Starman #13.  And in one of the stories in the 12th issue of the anthology, Showcase '95, Starman-cast member, The Shade, is confronted by the primary antagonist of Underworld Unleashed, Neron! If you're interested in taking the plunge with us, I encourage you to: Download this episode HERE!
