Dear Watchers: an omniversal comic book podcast

Grab your hockey mask (or if you prefer, a leather face) and join us as we dive deep into both Crystal Lake and the heart of Texas to explore Jason Voorhees & Friday the 13th and Leatherface and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre on film and in comics! We talk the backstories for both of the iconic series on film, discuss Guido's first time ever watching the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre and discuss the time these two titans of horror became friends and enemies in a 1995 three part comic series from Topps Comics. Great your headphones and your sharp implement of choice and listen up! 

Ep. 118 What if Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th was adopted by Leatherface and the cannibals from The Texas Chain Saw Massacre?
From the Topps Comics "Jason Vs. Leatherface #1" (1995 comic book)

This Halloween season we are talking both Friday the 13th and Texas Chainsaw Massacre on film and their spotty history in comics! We talk Tobe Hooper's first two Chainsaw films before taking a hack at Rob's favorite horror franchise, Friday the 13th. Then we center on the 1995 team up that saw Jason and Leatherface (and the rest of the cannibal Sawyer clan) became friends and then enemies in a Topps Comics miniseries from Nancy Collins and Jeff Butler (with covers by Simon Bisley). Before we head back to the graveyard, we wrap up by discussing why we don't see more comics with these 80s horror icons, what future horror team ups we want to see, and speculate on the upcoming Crystal Lake tv series (if it happens).
