Hey Kids, Comics! #309 - What Did We Just See?: Thunderstruck
Thursday Apr 25, 2019

Warner Brothers had finally realized that dark and brooding is great for Batman, but not necessarily the entire DCU. So it is only natural that "Shazam!" is the topic of discussion in this HCK! arc that explores recent comic book based television shows and movies.
This week Andrew Farmer and Cole Houston are joined by none other than JediCole's own dad! Amazing insights are had from someone who read Captain Marvel comics (the one featuring the lead character of Shazam!) back in the early 40s!

Hey Kids, Comics #225 - Cat Tail

Welcome to an adult-oriented issue of Hey Kids, Comics! that gives exposure (pun intended) to a comic book series that JediCole feels is one of those hidden gems that go otherwise overlooked. This week Andrew Farmer and Cole Houston turn their attention to the transcendent adults-only comic, "Omaha the Cat Dancer".
Released quietly in 1984 by a publisher nobody had ever heard of, a compilation of new and previously published anthology material comprised the first issue of a title that would make quite a splash. With its hardcore yet natural depiction of sex and sexuality woven into a complex plot of social/political intrigues, betrayal, hypocracy, and true love, the brainchild of cartoonist Reed Waller and (later) writer Kate Worley would cause such a splash as to enter the mainstream of comics in spite of its status as a "dirty book".
Your hosts offer two perspectives on this often controvercial title, that of fan from the outset and that of the newcomer.
This issue contains discussion of an adult nature and may contain language that some find offensive. You have been warned!

Hey Kids, Comics! #69 - Seven Deadlies: You've Got What I Want

When confronted with covering the traditional Seven Deadly Sins in only five episodes of Hey Kids, Comics! the only approach that makes sense is to double up from time to time. Well this is the first of two such times that are necessary to bring you all of the subject sins.
