In this week's show Billy and Herm cover MARVEL TEAM-UP #68 (1978) by Chris Claremont and John Byrne, featuring everyone's favorite Wallcrawler and Marvel's very own muck-encrusted monstrosity.After our shoptalk and recommendation segments, we also ascribe a comic book ALTER EGO origin story to iTunes Reviewer and TERRIFICON Producer Mitch Hallock, who generously gave us 5 stars. In Mitch's origin, the BRONZE AGE of Disco melds with THE DIGITAL AGE and modern Comic Conventions to create something completely unique and ultimately terrifying. Into The Weird is on Patreon.
