Second last episode of the Winter season but don’t worry, we will be back for the Summer session. Chris is out this week so Dan takes us down a Final Crisis nostalgia trip as DC prepares to release a massive Final Crisis Omnibus. Sam waxes poetically about the Snagglepuss comic and the fact that the book is far better than it should be. Marty can’t help but be excited about the first comic book appearance of his character, Kaptain Polska in the pages of The Adventures of Auroraman Annual #1. Joey Jeremiah is also beyond excited about the issue, but for other reasons. And Dan asks a question that COULD have filled a full episode, do comic creators have a shelf life.
Martin Boruta has been reading comic books and graphic novels for 50+ years (he reads books without pictures too, just sayin’). A lifelong fan of Captain Canuck, Martin is the curator of The Unofficial Yet Definitive Captain Canuck Comicography website. Since 2016, Martin has been reviewing comic books and highlighting great new Kickstarter projects at First Comics News. Martin’s writting has also been featured in Sequential Magazine. For over two-hundred episodes, Martin enjoyed teaming up with his pals and sharing hosting duties on The Hey Kids Comics Radio Show broadcast on Trent Radio 92.7 CFFF FM in lovely Peterborough, ON Canada, and still available at The Hey Kids Comics Radio Show website. Martin is a founding member of the Canadian Comic Book Alliance. In his various adventures, Martin has demonstrated an innate ability to spell “Erik Larsen” incorrectly.
Martin’s “day job” is owner of Shaw Computer Systems Inc., an Information Technology consultancy firm in Peterborough, ON, specializing in Managed Services for small to mid-sized businesses since 1980.
In the past, Martin served in the Canadian Armed Forces Reserve as a member of the Cadet Instructors List (Cadre), reaching the Queen’s Commissioned rank of Captain, was awarded a Baronship of Sealand, and was ordained as a Reverend in the Universal Life Church while watching an episode of Monster Garage.
