Welcome to A Kettle of Fish, a tangled ball of yarn from a bunch of former video game retail employees who aren’t afraid to tell it like they see (hear) it. There is never a dull moment with Tyler’s quips, Paul spiraling the drain of chaos, and carefree Robert with a mysterious rolodex of conversation-inspiring questions, both mundane and marvelous. And then there’s Frank, the one who originally brought them all together in the hellscape known as southwest Georgia. You can actually HEAR him facepalming over the microphone. Listen as they geek out over a myriad of topics and laugh throughout.
Paul and Robert go full-on nostalgia mode in this episode, bouncing from retro toys to the wild evolution of comic-book icons like the Riddler and the Punisher. They swap childhood stories, geek out over the animated shows that got so many hooked on comics, and compare notes on the joys (and chaos) of comic collecting. They also dive into the twisty world of comic-book continuity—multiverses, reboots, surprise character origins—the whole beautiful mess. There’s even a detour into Mortal Kombat crashing into comic universes, plus a review of this week's pull list.Chapters
