Episode 365 - Apes Visionaries Comic - Star Wars Burger Chef and Predator Posters

Today on GeekFest Rants, Carlos dips into comics and posters.  First off, he reviews the recent Planet of the Apes Visionaries graphic novel.  This highly anticipated volume gives all Apes fans an alternate visual look at the classic story from the perspective of one of the film's original screenwriters and Twilight Zone legend, Rod Serling.  Then Carlos travels back in time to 1977 to take a look at four super cool Star Wars Burger Chef promotional posters.  This is the same art that was later in 1978 turned into Burger King glasses. Finally he takes a close look at the poster for Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1987 hit, Predator.  Here he examines how the lead actor's name becomes the main promotional draw of the movie's poster.

Episode 364 - DC vs. Marvel

Two titans of the comic book world have become titans of the cinema world. But how are they faring against each other. Today on GeekFest Rants, Carlos is joined by new guest co-host Steve Fowlkes.  They cover the four major eras of superhero films, 70s-80s Superman era, 80's-90s Batman era, 90's-00's Spider-Man, Batman, X-Men era, and our current Marvel/DC incarnations.  Now that these two multi million dollar franchises are going head to head, how is one doing so much better than the other.  What are the hits and what are the not so hits; plus which are the ones that bomb so bad that they would both rather forget about.
