It’s Not Easy Being Green (Lantern)

It’s time to play the music, it’s time to light the lights, it’s time to meet Comic Casters on the Comic Cast tonight! On this weeks strawberry jam-packed show we review Rod Serling’s The Twilight Zone: The After Hours & The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street, Roger Langridge’s The Muppet Show issue #1,  Brian Wood’s Local, Lemony Snicket’s The Composer is Dead and Paul Hornschemeier’s Mother, Come Home (hardback re-release) not to mention Irish comics including Luke F’s Tweet, Philip Barrett’s Matter #11 / Blackshapes new version, and Paddy Lynch’s Stop Gap. We also have a vault of Irish and international comics news that we dive into ala Scrooge McDuck, including a preview of Yoshihiro Tatsumi’s A Drifting Life ! Tuck in!
