The Underbase Classics Episode 13: Peace Not really a standard Underbase review but just a few team-members nattering for a few hours... folks somehow manage to cover a Wreckers-featured 1989 annual story, in the middle of it all.

The Underbase reviews Timelines Issue 10 Adam starts the show by explaining last weeks news and our announcement, in more detail, to clarify certain aspects and calm some of you wonderfull folk down.Then jump to 10:15 and botcon!...well...as much as it ever is.Technically, this is a botcon review... but since the guys are on the second half of a lengthy recording session (and not on a comic they particularly enjoy) the conversation takes it's inevitable spin off onto wrestling, DC comics, penguin species, Jedi and other, more serious, issues... some of this has been left to the end, so keep listening! Explicit Language...what did you expect! /episode/index/show/theunderbase/id/3645347

The Underbase Reviews: Transformers GI Joe issue 7 06/06/2015

The Underbase Reviews: Transformers GI Joe issue 7 Joe comes to the rescue of a clearly knackered (sorry folks) Adam to review an incredible issue of Transformers vs GI Joe.An issue generating a lot of praise from may quarters. It's a shame that the delays in delease, and the art style have squeezed this title to the sidelines of the IDW Transformers program. In addition to Adam's weary state, we have a few audio drops. Apologies, there are only a few.At the end we note the current state of this title. Will we continue to enjoy this series for much longer? /episode/index/show/theunderbase/id/3600301

The Underbase Discussion Series : Comic Basement #4 Gender Roundtable Join Mikey and guests Isa, Sprite and Heather, as they discuss a wide range of aspects involving gender and the representation in both the Transformer, and wider, comic communities. Insightfull, hilarious, revealing and often razor-sharp, this is not only one of the most, hopefully, enjoyable discussions we have published on the Underbase, but covers several topics in a frank and level-headed fashion that is sometimes missing across certain elements of our fandom.As a sidenote, there are more killer quotes in this show than you can shake a stick at, but also a few audio issues we have hopefully minimised. Contains strong language. /episode/index/show/theunderbase/id/3585258
