WFD Episode 120: Once, Twice, Three Times An Ape-y OR Byrne-t Toast

HUZZAH!

The gents have Doom Patrolled again!

Check out the stylings on the Podbean wherein they serve up some. . .

Hot gorilla-on-gorilla action! Kleenex couture! Can you really have 'time-honoured traditions' by the 7th issue of a series? Awkward phone conversations! Failing memory! All this and the ever-eternal question on everyone's lips: just who the bloody hell ARE the Devolutionists anyway?!? LET'S GET PATROLLING!
  • Down on Derington Way - 9:02
  • Doom Clock - 9:45
  • Doomsplaining - 14:50 - We return to volume 4 of the Doom Patrol, and take a look at issues 7 and 8 by John Byrne, Doug Hazlewood, Jared K Fletcher, Alex Bleyaert and Mike Carlin! 
  • Mailbag O Doom - 38:55 - Who is your favourite loner character in comics?
As for the imagery to go with the podcast, well, I'm glad you asked. 


That is some manicure that ape is sporting. 





Stupid Nudge's stupid phone call to her stupid family. 

Rita Farr! You've just become an ape! What are you - oh. Of course. Byrne'd. 


And issue #8 of Doom Patrol (v4). 

NOT A VERY BYRNE-COVER. 








And there you have it! 



 I'll be getting caught up yet!
