Doug Bost and Adam Bernstein are Grown Ass Men

Let it be known that Grown Ass Men likes a good art show. A comic book art show!? We are there. A year ago or so we went down to an amazing exhibit of Spider-Man original art at The Society of Illustrators in NYC. We had never seen so much original art (Ditko, Romita, Kane and many others) in one place, it was unreal! Turns out all this art was loaned to the Society by one of the biggest comic book art dealers, Mike Burkey. One look at Mike's website and you will be blown away by his collection. So, we got in touch to talk about his collecting and got some great stories too. Check it out!

Remember 1974?

Along with all the comics Grown Ass men bought back then (which was a lot!) we also bought magazines! What a surprise! In this episode we chat with great comic creator R. Sikoryak, in order to figure what's great about Mad, Cracked, Sick, Crazy and National Lampoon back in 1974. We also check into Sikoryak's fantastic work which can be found here - http://rsikoryak.com

Folks, how is it that Grown Ass Men is 63 episodes in and we haven't discussed the great film/TV franchise Planet of the Apes!?

Well we know that's unacceptable so here we go!

We chat the original five films, the forgettable Marky Mark ones and the fantastic recent three. To reminisce about the TV show and some other 1970's Saturday morning classics we call upon chief memory stirrer Carolyn Baeumler Bost.

You do not want to miss this one!

Like you, Grown Ass Men like games. When you're comic freaks like us, you figure you can create some great heroes and villains too. So we called the funny creative Sam Mastandrea to join the festivities and play what eventually became named the Gerber Game (for Steve Gerber, not the baby food). Join as we explore The Human Porch! Don't miss it!

Original music from Adam Bernstein.

“What if things had turned out differently ? Only I know… 
For I am the Watcher, and mine is the power to see what was… And what might have been !”

Yup, in this episode we explore the cosmos' greatest observer, The Watcher! We chat about the history of The Watcher in Strange Tales, What If and of course his origins in Fantastic Four.

We also talk about some of our favorite current shows and how we're having a hard time getting through Jessica Jones.

Give a listen!

The buzz about the new Black Panther film is everywhere and for good reason, it's the best of the superhero movies. Grown Ass Men loved the film so we discuss it, the fan reactions, and Black Panther in the comic books. We also chat about Doug's trip on Disney's Marvel Day at Sea Cruise and how they befriended Loki. Don't miss this one!

When it comes to Star Wars vs. Star Trek, Grown Ass Men take a radical stance; why compare? Let's just rate them all as one great collection of science fiction. That's a big task for anyone but we knew to call award-winning American stage actor, singer and narrator Robert Petkoff! Besides Robert's great accomplishments on the stage and screen, he's an expert on both shows and records voiceovers on the recent Star Trek audiobooks.

Don't miss this one, take a listen!
