Super Scouts Interview with Writer Ryan Little!

October 22, 2020 by Neoplasmic in Comic Books, Interview, Podcast, RPC Capes

Greetings, citizens of Earth-Prime! Neoplasmic here, with a special guest in tow! Yes, friends, today we are speaking with prolific comic book scribe Ryan Little! Ryan was kind enough to chat with us about his latest project, Super Scouts, which is a Super Sentai (think Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers) meets Galaxy Quest story about a group of past-their-prime actors who discover that the TV show they were featured on in their youth was based on actual events. Sounds intriguing, doesn’t it? Let’s find out where Ryan and his artistic collaborators came up with the idea, and what separates the Scouts from the Rangers, by smashing that play button! Enjoy the episode!

October 02, 2020 by Neoplasmic in Interview, Comic Books, RPC Capes

Greetings and welcome to RPC Capes, our comic book show here on Renegade Pop Culture! We recently had the opportunity to speak to Kevin Joseph, the writer behind Kechal Comics’ Tart, a very unique fantasy/action/adventure/time-travel story that follows a group of women called the Toxic Fruit Organization and their battle against the King of Hell and his demon horde! If that ain’t a good hook, I don’t know what is! Featuring incredible painted artwork by Ludovic Salle, Tart is a comic that reads like a modern version of Buffy with a little bit of Hellboy and Sandman thrown into the mix! Its aesthetic is truly unlike anything else out there! Click that link and enjoy the interview!

Blast Processing - An Interview with Console Wars directors Blake J. Harris and Jonah Tulis!

October 01, 2020 by Neoplasmic in Interview, Podcast, Video Games, RPC Games, Renegade Arcade

Welcome to another special edition of the Renegade Arcade here on the RPC Podcast Network! This episode, Jacob and I had the chance to interview the awesome co-directors of the Console Wars documentary, currently available on CBS All Access! This was an incredible opportunity to speak with fellow gamers about a time which seems so long ago, and yet I still remember it like it was yesterday. Ah, the nostalgia. The documentary, like Harris’ book, is chock full of discussions with industry luminaries like Nintendo’s Howard Lincoln and Gail Tilden, along with Sega’s Tom Kalinske and Al Nilsen. It’s a veritable wealth of first-hand accounts and behind the scenes info, and it is just glorious for gaming history buffs like myself. Click that link and let’s ride the time wave back to the early 1990s!
