Other than a surprise visit from Comicosity 's Doug Zawisza, nothing exciting happens in this episode. At all.
So we look at the Doom Clock, and we talk about some Doom Patrol stuff (big surprise there, right?), and then we go through the Mailbag O Doom. We hope you enjoy this stock-standard episode of Waiting For Doom.

Hey, Patrollers! How's it goin'? Ready for another awesome ep of your favourite podcast? Of COURSE you are! LET'S GET PATROLLING!
Doom Clock - 14:38
Doomsplaining - 16:10 - this week we are joined by our special guest, J. Torres! We discuss his love of the Doom Patrol, which is apparent in comics he's written that feature them, in both Teen Titans Go! and Batman: The Brave And The Bold! We also discuss his upcoming projects, The Mighty Zodiac and BroBots!
Mailbag O Doom - 52:53 - We read your responses to the question, "What are the best comics for kids?"
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. |
