John Semper- Hero or Menace?


In atonement for not researching the 1994 Fox Spider-Man cartoon thoroughly, we bring you Spider-man: The Truth. This special episode, we explore the foundation of lies on which this cartoon rests. We also explore the one man who is the biggest source of information about this show and… why you probably shouldn’t listen to him.

Topics Covered
It’s NOT Spider-Man:TAS. Stop Lying
Mostly TMS? HAH!
John Semper cries cancer curing tears
The reason why Bob Richardson still gets work
And what do you get when you drain Elvira of hotness AND Humor? CREEPORIA!

Now you saw it. You cannot un-see it.

60's Spider-Man

Wait... What the heck is he swinging from?!


This week, we’re joined by Space Captain Steve of Blade Kitten and Hal Hefner of Heavy Metal’s Gates, as we talk about Spider-Man through the ages! We go over pretty much every Spider-Man animated cartoon ever made, and even some of the live action ones. We talk about all incarnations of Spidey, Peter’s love life, and our ideal production of Spider-Man.

In a bonus round, we’re joined by 1UP’s Bob Mackey, where we make a discovery of something that was overlooked in the main part of the show. Could this episode be…TO BE CONTINUED!?!??

Spectacular Spider-Man

Again I ask; considering how far up he is, what exactly is he swinging from?

This Bonus ep has nothing to do with animation and everything to do with the history of personal computing, so warning here and now: If talking about 16 bit, 32 bit, TRASH80’s, and the like bore you, do not venture further!

If it doesn’t, then come join Me and Neil as we talk to Techies Tom Revor and Tim Groves about technology!

Animaniacs

There's baloney in our slacks!

This week, we record with 1UP.com’s Bob Mackey to explore Animaniacs and Tiny Toons. One was groundbreaking, creative, and hilarious…and the other is Tiny Toons. We discuss the impact of both shows, their strengths, their weaknesses, and which one ultimately comes out on top in the end. If you’ve been listening to this show for a while, then you probably know what we’re going to say about Tiny Toons…but you should listen anyway!

Topics covered
Pre-Crisis Daffy
Mary Sue Adventures
The Bloody Head Fairy
Justice For Buttons
Tongue…two…three, one…two…three
Torturing Buddy
Baby Plucky
The Wretched Clown
The Plucky Duck Show
Jaimy Kelner, television lumberjack
Don’t Stop The Sandman
It’s the 90s, time for Klax.
…While Bill Clinton plays the sax!

Tiny Toons... just little versions of better cartoons


Tongue Two Three

Kennedy Cartoons did this. No, it doesn't look any better in motion.


Here’s “The Looney Beginning,” which is actually one of the better-animated episodes of Tiny Toons. In fact, these are the best results that they ever got from Kennedy Cartoons.

…But watch as this episode of Animaniacs completely outpace it in every way.

Also, check this shit out. This is the guy who played Wakko.

This is the most maddening thing you’ll ever hear…

A Compilation of Glen Kennedy’s ‘Contribution’ to the industry…

Mega hi! TV’s Mr. Neil here. I made an appearance on Tooncast Beyond last week to talk about the old Mega Man series from the 90s. I’ve embedded the YouTube video below, but for anyone who wants to listen to the MP3, head on over to Tooncast’s page for the download link.

Also, we talked about this cartoon and more when Bob Mackey of the Retronauts podcast joined us for Cartoons Based On Video Games. Speaking of Bob, he’ll be on tomorrow’s episode of Animation Aficionados, to talk to us about Animaniacs and Tiny Toons.

Also, be sure to listen to Ben’s appearance on the Beacon Newcast with our friend Thomas Revor, and our buddy Kittyhawk made an appearance on the MSTieCast!
