Worst Collection Ever

Doom Patrol #117 (1968) The Doom Patrol split up their group early on here because Niles is too preoccupied with women whilst Robotman lies around looking like Anakin Skywalker on Mustafar and Negative Man suffers from ham deprivation. The minute they all leave, Clint Howard in a purple chicken costume arrives to attack a crippled man with an army of violent hummingbirds. Treachery persists until Doom Patrol is bailed out by a bunch of West Coast Native Americans riding Fire Mares. You know, those horses from KRULL.

Spectacular Spider-Man #135 (1988) In one of his rare comic book appearances, the ever-affable Regis Philbin welcomes partially reformed serial killer Sin-Eater on his show, preceded by Mary Jane Watson modeling women’s fashion from the Gold Circle fall catalog. Peter Parker recovers from intense electrical burns enough to support his wife, only to get verbally embarrassed by a donut-fueled Electro. We also talk a lot about pizza in this episode.

World’s Finest Comics #233 (1975) As promised, we dig into a Super Sons book this week as Superman Jr. and Batman Jr. Jr. roll into a town of independent women only to get thrown in jail for trying to be groovy. Later, Superman Jr. Jr. Jr. carries Batman Jr. the IV in one hand over his head like a waiter in a restaurant (ass-to-palm) to battle an alien who hates mirrors. This story ends with Batman Jr. to the Fifth Power tongue-kissing an entire town of traumatized women.  Email the podcast at worstcollectionever@gmail.com Continue the conversation with Shawn and Jen on Twitter @angryheroshawn and @JenStansfield

X-Men [vol 2] #31 (1994) Much like the Bluths, the X-Men Blue team believes that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Join us this week as Gambit cooks up some morning gruel just so he can taunt Rogue that he ate it all while wearing tiny shorts. Also, Archangel and Psylocke get themselves some cappuccino and crash a car. Even Beast gets in on the brunch action with some morning coffee whilst hanging from a titanium ceiling fan. There’s also this whole drama between Psylocke and the gal whose body she took over after the whole Siege Perilous business. It gets tragic AF.

DC Comics Presents #70 (1984) Superman teams up with the Metal Men which is really strange because Superman hates robots. Thankfully, Clark is able to suppress his boiling hatred for machine men and team up with them to defeat a technologically gifted doomsday prepper. Also, Marc Maron shows up and attempts a heist in an air balloon.

G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #77 (1988) Yo Joe! The Joes have been ensnared in a government cover-up on Cobra Island as Fake Cobra Commander and Serpentor battle it out. Serpentor lost though so that means Dr. Mindbender can go full Krieger from ARCHER with his dead body. As for the Joes, they chill with some Vipers to watch a cat fight between Lady Jaye and Zarana. Meanwhile, Destro wears a Speedo on a boat in the Caribbean while Roadblock run from the Feds. And since its 1988 and we are in mad grinder mode, Zartan steps away from the action to open for classic self-titled era Danzig. Sadly, Chuck Biscuits was never inducted into the Dreadnoks (but should have been).

The Brave and The Bold #123 (1975) We just had to go back to the Bob Haney well because this book is just too ridiculous for us to wait on. Bruce Wayne goes on vacation to Turkey so in his place is a freshly de-vagranted Plastic Man posting as Batman. Plas does a great job too, orchestrating a hostage rescue by having a cross-dressing policeman throw a grenade in a bank deposit box. Things take a turn when Bruce Wayne is charged with murder and Metamorpho poses as his lawyer. Plastic Man as Batman gets brainwashed by some lady into being a heel, only for the devilish woman to constantly try to poison his tea.

Warlock and the Infinity Watch #29 (1994) Not gonna lie…this is a slog of a book. The finish is given away on the cover and it takes the full twenty-two pages to tell something that really only should have taken four. Thankfully, we have a guest in professional wrestler / comedian / comic book writer RAVEN. He’s awesome and he’s here to help us decipher this Jim Starlin tale of Adam Warlock getting drunk after one sip of whine while a man with no nose watches. There’s also this She-Ra/Nick Fury chick that’s causing all the trouble while Gamora gets all cranky. If Jim Starlin wrote THREE’S COMPANY, it’d be this comic.

Visionaries #5 (1988) Does anyone who isn’t a regressed 80’s child remember the Visionaries? Visionaries were a toy line that focused on holograms and poems for boys. The figures were slightly bigger than GI Joes so you couldn’t have them wrestle each other unless if the Visionaries were from the land of Manute Bols. This short-lived comic follows the heel and face knights as they attempt to grab a few fancy jewels for a dying wizard who DEFINITELY IS NOT MERLIN. Its surprisingly progressive at points, especially when women ask for AND receive mystical powers equal to the men. Also, one of the knights makes soup and then turns into a green bear.

Blue Beetle [vol 1] #21 (1988) Its a Millennium crossover! Blue Beetle and Mister Miracle return from a JLI meeting where the heroes determine the best course of action to beat the Manhunters is to burn a hole into the earth. Mister Miracle watches Supermarket Sweep on Lifetime in the Bug while Ted goes up to his office and pretends to work. Later, a rejected 90’s G.I. JOE character ambushes Ted and Miracle while they prep a giant ball of metal to burn into the earth. They were dead serious about this. Escapes and what not ensue because Mother Boxes.

Justice League of America #186 (1981) So, Elongated Man gets monitor duty on the JLA Satellite and makes a peanut butter & swiss cheese sandwich because apparently he can bend his stomach so he doesn’t throw up. Or maybe he’s just one of those guys who do that thing you would do in high school where you would down ALL the condiments mixed today because you’re the resident crazy kid. Anyway, some Russians show up to ask the JLA for help with the Shaggy Man who is currently terrorizing Moscow. Eventually, they throw Shaggy Man into space because space is the landfill we forget that we have. Please rate, review, subscribe and tell a friend!

Captain America #434 (1994) Jack Flag’s parents were strong-armed out of their home by the Serpent Society who’ve decided the smart criminal money is in Arizona real estate scams. So, Jack dyes his hair like a rocket pop, rigs up a JVC boombox to shoot lasers and offers up his non-snake related persona to the Serpent Society like some completely obvious Trojan horse. Snakes are dumb though so they let him in. Meanwhile, Cap fights a fit gal wearing a patriotic one-strapper for, no lie, SEVEN HOURS. Also, Captain America is dying. He got the results of the test back. He definitely has breast cancer. Please rate, review, subscribe and tell a friend!

The Brave and the Bold #79 (1968) Its about time we go WAY back and it also happens to be our first Deadman-centric book, which is shocking. Thankfully for us (and for you the listener), this book is peak Bob Haney so its out of its mind. Deadman decides to solicit Batman’s help in finding his hooked-handed killer and it JUST HAPPENS that some dude in Gotham is running around murdering folks over pachinko machines WEARING A HOOK! HOT DAMN! But…to the surprise of no one, this leads to Batman going on a murderous rampage as he is inclined to do. No one is safe. Please rate, review, subscribe and tell a friend!
