12 Days of Crusademas 2017 - Day 12

Longbox Crusade: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017
Day 12: Twelve Avengers Avenging
Issue: Avengers Arena #1


Listen here: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017 - Day 12

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!  The Dark Web has the great honor of closing out the 12 days of Crusademas with the gift of Avengers Arena #1.  Is it the the official Daisy model 1938 Red Ryder BB gun, or just a lame advertisement for Ovaltine?  Will Kristatos shoot his eye out?  Will the neighborhood bully, Weasel Skull, and his toadie, Death Probe, get their comeuppance?  I don't think any of those questions will be answered, but the boys will chat about Avengers Arena!  Donny Hathaway will wind down by the yule log with his version of "This Christmas."  Thank you to everyone who spent their Christmas season with us & the 12 Days of Crusademas.  We sincerely appreciate you joining us.  HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Longbox Crusade: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017
Day 11: Eleven Agents Atlasing
Issue: Agents of Atlas #1


Listen here: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017 - Day 11

IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE!  On this 11th day of Crusademas, Weasel Skull gives the gift of Agents of Atlas from Marvel Comics.  WOO!!!!  (It'll make sense if you listen.)  Find out whether this reindeer team of reviewers thinks this is chocolate-covered cherries, or is it last year's fruitcake?  Speaking of "last year's fruitcake", Delvin makes comments on this episode too!  The Dropkick Murphy's take us over the river & through the woods with their interesting, mildly-angry holiday tune, "They Call This Christmas."  Once you listen to Dark Web make fart noises & three grown men giggle at the word "unzip" in the outtakes, get to bed - Santa is on his way!!!!!

Longbox Crusade: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017
Day 10: Ten Nth Man Nthing
Issue: Nth Man the Ultimate Ninja #2



Listen here: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017 - Day 10


Stop...Hama time!  Larry Hama's way-under-the-radar Nth Man book is the centerpiece of our Christmas Season banquet for this tenth day of Crusademas.  Will Nth Man make the Naughty List or the Nice List?  Tune in to find out!  At the very least, you get to hear Professor Weasel Skull use the phrase "post-nuclear-age philosophy"...and then explain it...  Ultimately DJ Kristatos saves Christmas & plays the GREATEST CHRISTMAS SONG EVER for the closer - "Christmas in Hollis" by Run DMC.  Outtakes reveal Weasel Skull's Christmas nemesis: his microphone.

12 Days of Crusademas 2017 - Day 09

Longbox Crusade: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017
Day 09: Nine ElfQuest Questing
Issue: ElfQuest #1


Listen here: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017 - Day 09

It's an Elf on the Shelf special!  Well....it's ElfQuest #1 for this ninth day of Crusademas, brought to you by Kristatos.  The Pinis are pretty well known in the comic book community for this fantasy book creation. We're all aware of it...so why haven't many people actually read it?  The lads will discuss that phenomenon and reveal once and for all whether or not ElfQuest deserves it's cult-following status.  Death Probe sniffles a lot due to his love for the "winter snow."  Somehow Faith No More makes an appearance.  Dark Web reveals his greatest Christmas disappointment.  This episode has it all!  "A Hallelujah Christmas" by Cloverton brings us all the way into the outtakes....where Professor Weasel Skull attempts to educate the other 3 guys...to no avail.

12 Days of Crusademas 2017 - Day 08

Longbox Crusade: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017
Day 08: Eight Transformers Transforming
Issue: Transformers #75



Listen here: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017 - Day 08


The eighth day of Crusademas finds the boys tackling probably the most well-known title from under the Longbox Tree: Transformers.  But we're going back the early days to a Transformers tale you may have missed from the bygone Marvel era - issue #75.  We’ll give you a hint: it's a big climactic battle.  Will talking robots still stand up after a couple decades?  Only Santa knows for sure....or you could just take a listen....  Carla Thomas will be provided via DJ Kristatos with her Christmas tune, "Gee Whiz, it's Christmas!"

Longbox Crusade: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017
Day 07: Seven Sojourn Sojourning
Issue: Sojourn #1



Listen here: 12 Days of Crusademas 2017 - Day 07

Starting the back-half of Crusademas, Jason brings the Crossgen classic "Sojourn" to our gift-giving session.  Straight from the early 2000's, Ron Marz teamed up with artists Greg Land & Drew Garaci to bring us some sword & sorcery.  Will the D&Dishness tickle Pat's tummy feathers?  Will Jarrod's natural disdain of fantasy make him hold onto all his candy canes?  Kreeg - awesome comic book dog, or best comic book dog ever?  Does anyone actually read these previews?  Tune in to find out!  Lady-of-the-80's icon, Cyndi Laueper, brings this one home with her song, "Feels Like Christmas."  In the outtakes, everyone is mean to Weasel Skull....Merry Christmas!

Day 06: Six Spyboy Spying
Issue:   Spyboy #1



The sixth day of Crusademas, brought to you by the Longbox Crusade, was a treat brought to you in a way only Jarrod Alberich can deliver, regaling us with the well penned Spyboy! Will we have a Grinch for this day or will the entire team be grateful for the gift bestowed upon us today? We definitely enjoyed the Yard Sale Artist’s choice of music for his outro, “Frosty the Snowman” by Michael Keaton and the Jack Frost Band!
