| HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT...The Lobo Brothers?!? | 08 May 2026 | 00:17:04 | |
Nice! Time for another installment of HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT…?” a semi-recurring segment where we look at random characters that we encounter in the books we read. Lots of strange, unusual folks out here that you need to know about. Since we are putzing around with the Punisher, the most logical solution would be to talk about the LOBO BROTHERS, two brothers who are both high-class drug dealers AND mutant werewolves. Frank was once almost mind-controlled to assassinate them for the Kingpin but it didn’t go well. Regardless, the brothers have some intriguing aspects about them, particularly the whole mutant lycanthropy deal that isn’t entirely mutant but also mystical in some ways. We also spend some time on a few extremely tertiary Kingpin associates that find themselves jobbing pretty hard to Frank and Kingpin himself.

| The Debut of FINAL ISSUE BLUES! | 13 Mar 2026 | 00:35:32 | |
Jen is out sick this week so let’s pilot something called LAST ISSUE BLUES… Comic books ending their runs, whether on purpose or due to cancellation, interests me so let’s get a little deeper. And by deeper, I mean we will look at the last issue of a series, talk about the character, the run, go thru the final issue and its effectiveness as an ending and maybe hypothesize why it went away. This being a pilot and what not means we might be a bit clunky but hopefully the point will get across. This time out, we will discuss the end of: BLUE BEETLE [vol 6] (1986 to 1988) Ted Kord’s having a bad day at the office, getting pushed out the company he helped save when his father fell off and, on top of that, a vengeful suit of armor has walked the floor of the Atlantic Ocean to come give him grief.
