Night of the Living Dead: Zombie Genesis #1 with Frank Pittarese
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this episode Matt and special guest co-host Frank Pittarese quickly come to the realization that they would rather face down an army of the undead than talk about 1994's NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD: ZOMBIE GENESIS #1. Technically this is a comic "based on" Matt's second favorite movie of all time, 1968's NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. But honestly, associating this comic with the movie at all is a gigantic insult to the movie. If anything, this comic is more of a BAYWATCH "parody", which is not something one would expect when picking up a comic called NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. Look,...

A Conversation with JD McGibney from Angels on the Battlefield
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this extra special episode Matt has the honor of sitting down with JD McGibney (guitarist/composer from ANGELS ON THE BATTLEFIELD) for an incredible conversation that was supposed to be all about nerdy interests and how awesome JD's hair is, but instead evolves into a sometimes funny, often times moving discussion about mental health struggles and the work it takes to find peace within yourself. Regular listeners to Does This Come in Chromium will love getting to know JD. From the first moments of the episode, he reveals himself to truly be one of the nicest and most thoughtful people...

Halloween #1 with Bobby Trippett
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this episode Matt and the man responsible for teaching Michael Myers to drive, Bobby Trippett (co-host of the GRINDBIN PODCAST) hide in some bushes and yell at that little jerk Lonnie to get his ass away from the show so they can discuss 2000's HALLOWEEN #1. This is a comic based on Matt's all-time favorite movie, which means Bobby is as good as confined to Smith's Grove Sanitarium, forced to listen to near endless rantings of a lunatic, "Bobby, I watched the movie SIX TIMES (today)!" Bobby displays the patience of a man who is staring at a wall, not seeing the wall, looking past the wall...

Generation X #1 with Bobby Trippett
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this episode Matt and special guest co-host Bobby Trippett (from the GRINDBIN PODCAST) try their best to be totally radical and like, you know, all that and a bag of chips while discussing 1994's GENERATION X #1. If listeners should expect anything from X-Men related episodes of Chromium, it's that Matt really doesn't know anything about the X-Men family - but does that stop him from constantly interrupting and talking over Bobby (the actual expert on the topic)? Nope, not at all. In fact, he does it more than usual. There's a reason the episode clocks in at just over...

Reign of the Supermen Part 2 with David Walton and Glitch
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this episode Matt is joined by reigning special guest co-hosts David Walton and Glitch to continue their discussion of all things Jeb Friedman as they revisit 1993's classic Jeb Friedman story REIGN OF THE SUPERMEN (in which all of the Supermen are Jeb Friedman). If you want to read along with this episode you'll need to grab your copies of ACTION JEB FRIEDMAN #688, JEB FRIEDMAN: THE MAN OF STEEL #23, JEB FRIEDMAN #79, and ADVENTURES OF JEB FRIEDMAN #502. Stay tuned for part 3 coming very soon (unless Jeb swoops in and charms the podcast away from Matt)! Follow David on BlueSky:...

The Shadow and Doc Savage #'s 1 and 2 with Robby Robertson
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this episode Matt and special guest co-host Robby Robertson try to figure out why someone would even want to eat the bitter fruit of a weed while discussing 1995's THE SHADOW AND DOC SAVAGE #'s 1 and 2. Matt and Robby have been friends in the podcast world for a few years now, but Matt realized that he really didn't know anything about Robby - like is he really a chef? And a doctor? Does he really come from Georgia? The answer to all of those is yes, but that barely scratches the surface of just how cool Robby is. After we get to know Robby, then it's all about The...

Primal Force #2 with Ian Anderson
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this episode Matt and Ian try their best to avoid being sassed by Cataclysm while they talk about 1994's PRIMAL FORCE #2! The issue by issue discussion of PRIMAL FORCE continues! Before getting into PRIMAL FORCE #2 Matt tells Ian all about their beloved Jack O'Lantern's first appearance, which can best be described as charmingly dark. Then Matt tries to verbally edit a joke he tells in this episode into the previous episode. He still has no idea how podcasts work. Then it's time for the big showdown: The Leymen (remember they are NOT called Primal Force) versus Cataclysm...in a...

Walter Koenig's Raver #1 with A. Lee Martinez and David Walton
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this episode Matt and special guest co-hosts A. Lee Martinez (author of UNBEARABLE - available now!) and David Walton (recovering from eye surgery now!) try to decide which one of them is going to be sacrificed while the other two eat ice cream and discuss 1993's RAVER #1. Regular listeners to the show will have seen it coming for a while now, but this is the episode that finally broke Matt. The comic, written by STAR TREK's very own Walter Koenig, was just the right combination of interesting and baffling that it opened the cosmic door and let madness run rampant into Matt's...

Primal Force #1 with Ian Anderson
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this episode Matt and rookie Leyman Ian Anderson prepare to recite an awkwardly long oath by discussing 1994's PRIMAL FORCE #1. That's right folks, the issue by issue coverage of PRIMAL FORCE begins here! Well, technically it began with the PRIMAL FORCE #0 episode, but now it's official. Matt and Ian will be talking about the entire run of PRIMAL FORCE. Issue by issue. Or at least that's the plan until Ian forsakes the Leymen's oath, throws his medallion in the nearest pool, and walks away from the show. But until then Matt and Ian talk about whether or not one of...

Night Thrasher #1 with Corey Blake
Does This Come In Chromium?
On this episode Matt and special guest co-host Corey Blake try to avoid getting their butts kicked as they discuss the kick butt 1993 kick butt comic NIGHT THRASHER #1 (starring the kick butt Night Thrasher who does indeed kick butt). At one point Night Thrasher was the kick butt leader of the New Warriors, a truly kick butt team, but now he's a kick butt solo character. The question is, does Night Thrasher work as a solo character or does he shine brighter as part of a kick butt ensemble? Matt isn't sure of the answer, mainly because he's unfamiliar with anything kick butt. ...
info_outlineOn this episode Matt and special guest co-hosts David Walton and Glitch meet four super cool dudes (of which not a single one of them is totally evil) who are calling dibs on the name Superman as they discuss 1993's ACTION COMICS #687, SUPERMAN #78, THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN #501, and SUPERMAN: THE MAN OF STEEL #22.
That's right, the long promised discussion of the REIGN OF THE SUPERMEN finally begins here!
The guys kick things off by tackling the most pressing issue of all, deciding which of the replacement Supermen is their personal favorite.
Then things turn in a very DOES THIS COME IN CHROMIUM direction as David reveals that he's STILL worried that he killed Superman with his indifference, Matt is STILL waiting for the four replacement Supermen to Voltron into the one true Superman, and Glitch STILL hates Jeb Friedman with a fiery passion.
Also, did Coast City ever really exist? We're just asking questions.
Stay tuned for part 2 (and more Night Man references) coming very soon!
