Collected Edition: Episode 75: GI Joe
Manage episode 412875489 series 2352302
“…forged something far beyond
Hasbro and Marvel’s wettest dreams.”
On this episode, we discuss the 1980s classic GI Joe: A Real American Hero comics by writer Larry Hama and artist Herb Trimpe. This comic was essentially a toy commercial but Hamma went far beyond his mandate and wrote something entertaining and even depth. Who knew?
In addition, we talk about the first season of Loki (in a superficial way) and then launch into a segment that I am charitably calling “two old guys get nostalgic about toys they used to own.”
As always, thanks for listening.
WE STILL WANT YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS!
