Episode 132: Malevolence In The Benevolence - Titans 1.4 Minisode
Saturday Nov 03, 2018
Saturday Nov 03, 2018
Remember those days when we wondered if the Doom Patrol would ever return to comics, and how surprised we were when then did? Well imagine our collective surprise when it was announced they'd be appearing on our TV's (and giant monitors, for those so inclined)!
Yes, the Doom Patrol have made their first live action appearance on TV, as part of episode 4 of the 'Titans' series on the DCU streaming service. As Mike and Paul live in Australia and are unable to access said service AT THIS STAGE, they've been assisted with a review by special correspondent and friend of the show, Dr. Anj, of the Supergirl Comic Box Commentary Blog.
We hope you enjoy this special minisode, and thanks to Dr. Anj for coming to our rescue!

Episode 128: Who Ordered the Bad Dream Bad Romance Combo Meal?
Friday Sep 14, 2018
Friday Sep 14, 2018
What a time to be a Doom Patrol fan! This week there's more news about the upcoming TV show, more news about the future of the comic, and...then we take a look at some...earlier..Doom Patrol comics..Hmm.
Anyway - LET'S GET PATROLLING!
News Patrol – 8:09
Doom Clock - 18:50
Doomsplaining - 23:37 - this week we cover Doom Patrol Volume 4 issues 13 & 14, from John Byrne, Terry Austin, Jared K. Fletcher, Alex Bleyeart, and (allegedly) Mike Carlin.
Mailbag O Doom - 53:24 - We read through your responses to the last Question of the Week, 'In comics, where a costumed identity has been assumed by multiple individuals, who was your favourite of these alternatives?'

Waiting for Doom was created in late 2014 after 2 obsessive Doom Patrol fans realised (possibly incorrectly) that the world needed more discussion regarding their all time favourite superhero team. Specifically, from the two of them. Egos, am I right?Some helpful starting points for you:
Mike lives in Brisbane, and has had an on-again, off-again love affair with comics for 95% of his life. Paul lives in Laggan and tempers his encyclopedic knowledge of comics creators, and DC Comics in general, with biting sarcasm. Both of them fear the arrival of the Beardhunter, given their combined facial hair. Waiting For Doom would also not be possible without the support of our fellow Doom Bros: Jeames aka Rifty who provides technical support; and Doug Zawisza, who provides additional Doom Patrol history and commentary both here and on his own site, mygreatestadventure80.blogspot.com . Mike and Paul have the reluctant support of WilFreD, the sentient show Twitter account which gained self-awareness in early 2015. WilFreD lurks around this site so be careful of participating in inflammatory anti-AI sentiments lest we all suffer his wrath. |
