On this episode of DOES THIS COME IN CHROMIUM the great @matthewdowsmith.bsky.social and I visit the Doctor (Occult, that is) for a check-up that goes every way but expected. So open up and say ah while listening to us discuss 1994’s VERTIGO VISIONS: DOCTOR OCCULT! sites.libsyn.com/601360/site/...

If you don’t read this full episode description then you too will find out why “pleasure can be such amusing gallows” (again, WTF?!?)

Cover of VERTIGO VISIONS: DOCTOR OCCULT alongside the full episode description:

On this episode Matt and special guest co-Doctor Occult superfan Matthew Dow Smith (writer/artist of AMELIA SHADOWS, THE OCTOBER GIRL) try to determine if "pleasure can really be such amusing gallows" (WTF?) by discussing 1994's VERTIGO VISIONS: DOCTOR OCCULT.

If you like extremely deep dives on characters most people haven't even heard of it (and face it, if you're listening to this show - you do) then this episode is truly for you!

Both Matt and Matthew are outspoken Doctor Occult fans, but interestingly, their love is each rooted in a different aspect of the character.  Although, a bit of a spoiler alert here: the Doctor Occult they love is NOT present in this Vertigo Visions one-shot.

BUT the fact that this is a wildly different take on the character does make for a great conversation.

Along the way Matt gives Matthew a great idea for a story, but when he asks to have a character named after him he gets turned down for the most Matt reason of all time (and it's not because he talks about Night Man all of the time).

The sole Creed song I have any fondness for is, “What’s This Life For?” and that’s only because it played in the end credits of HALLOWEEN H20 (a movie that I find to be underwhelming at best). My brain is very stupid.

I had a wonderful conversation with @mattbegins.bsky.social on the excellent DOES THIS COME IN CHROMIUM podcast regarding one of my favorite '90s comics: DOOM 2099! It's a great chat that kind of swerves into a backdoor pitch for a new series? Check it out! #podcast #doctordoom #doom2099

On the new episode of DOES THIS COME IN CHROMIUM past (perceived) slights come back to haunt me while the wonderful @stacyhd.bsky.social brings countless genuinely insightful thoughts to our conversation about 1993’s DOOM 2099 #1! sites.libsyn.com/601360/site/...
