Episode 107: Superhero Fashion
A new episode of Strangers with Comics arrives! We start things off with the week in geek
segment which features Gabe being abandoned by his parents so he orders Domino’s. Rob goes on about some video games he has
been playing and Tony reports on the KISS concert. The Strangers also go over some internet
rules. In our TV and Movie Roundup, Gabe basically repeats his weekly
Fringe/Glee/Flash Forward praise. We have a brief discussion of Dr. Who and
Water of Mars and then a discussion of the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TV
show.
During the main segment we discuss Superhero Fashion. We
start off with costumes we like and then talk about the classic “iconic” costumes
(for example Batman). We then move into
the bad which of course means we talk a lot about the 90’s. We wrap up with
some guilty pleasure costumes which are costumes that are pretty awful but we
like them anyway. We also toss in the
comments from Twitter and Facebook from Randal, Jon Suarez, Moonkatz and Gene
Valjean.
In our weekly comics roundup, books we liked included
Transformers, Adventure Comics, Victorian Undead and Jersey Gods. We then go into a lengthy rant about Flash
Rebirth wherein we question the entire concept and mock the many ridiculous
aspects of the story, including the awful costume Wally ended up in. Gabe then
rants about Outsiders.
Thanks for listening.

The fashionable thing is more important than life or liberty is wrong. I have a problem with Hux's use of the phrase, "We all know that.

Cultural influences are stronger when we consider the economic aspect of the fashion industry.

Geez..... I was obviously playing on the word, "Gay" since it was, you know, being said in just about every other word in between during the audio content.I do, however, agree about videos ( as an object ) having no particular gender.I guess it all comes down to today's meaning of what once was an innocent adjective

As for me I like iconic costumes. The fact that they exist for so long roves that they are nice and suited the hero a lot.
