Episode 17
Saturday, 14 December, 2024
It's time once again for our annual ho-ho-holiday episode and this year, we're talking about the classic first issue of Marvel Team-Up #1 from 1972, in which Spider-Man and The Human Torch go up against -- who else -- the Sandman, in the aptly titled "Have Yourself A Sandman Little Christmas."It's a fun story, set against the backdrop of Christmas in New York City in the early 70s, written by Roy Thomas, with art by Ross Andru and Mike Esposito. It's always fun going back to the Marvel age of comics, back during a time when a single issue comic could tell a complete story with fun, plenty of action, and heroes cracking wise and trying to crack the villain's plans.Will Spidey and the Torch vanquish the Sandman and get some holiday spirit? LIsten to this podcast and find out!Your ho-ho-hosts are Brad Page and Chris Karam.Happy Holidays to one and all!
