FW Presents: Siskoid's Mad Kirby Theories

August 29, 2017

In the wake of yesterday’s 100th Birthday Jack Kirby celebration, Siskoid takes to the microphone for an aftershow to go deeper into some of his theories about the King of Comics.

All the Fire and Water Network stars are at HeroesCon this weekend, all except the Canadian contingent, so Siskoid is going to take over, if you don’t mind, and steal Rob and Shagg’s slot to talk about some of the more absurd (at least, when you think about it) super-powers out there. Oh fine, Rob and Shagg are also in it, just so they can keep their Sunday podcasting streak unbroken. Stand by for the first installment of… Siskoid’s Mad Theories!
