On the Next Major Spoilers Podcast: The Trouble with Girls

This week, the Major Spoilers Podcast dives into the Trouble with Girls.

TheTroubleWithGirlsThe Trouble with Girls is a satirical action series starring Lester Girls, who wants to be simply an “average guy” with a dead-end job, a plain wife, and no adventures more exciting than a good night’s sleep. But Lester can’t go for a drive without terrorists launching missiles at him, or walk into one of his many mansions without a beautiful, talented, curvaceous woman reposing half-dressed on his bed. Wealth, adventure, sexual magnetism, dashing good looks, and the savoir faire of a Hollywood action hero are what he calls “the curse of Girls.”

QUESTION OF THE DAY: Crossover Contemplation

If you haven’t heard the big rumor, Bleeding Cool is reporting that IDW Publishing will release an officially sanctioned Doctor Who/Star Trek crossover.  I’ve not seen any official Doctor Who crossovers myself, but I think we’re all familiar with Star Trek and X-Men and Legion of Super-Heroes.  IDW has been no stranger to interesting crossovers – in fact, the current Infestation 2 event has The Old Ones making their way into everything from Transformers to Danger Girl.

Major Spoilers Question(s) of the Day: Are cross property events something that really work for fans of all properties involved, or do they simply fall into that category of “I’m gonna read this just to see the train wreck in progress?” AND more importantly, what unique crossover do you want to see in your comic books?

MAJOR SPOILERS SNOW DAY!

We’re still under a blizzard warning until sometime this afternoon, which means schools are closed, kids are hopped up on the goofball known as pre-Christmas present anxiety, and people are still taking to the roads and driving like the want to be in NASCAR.

Updates will be sporadic throughout the day – drive safe.

I don’t know what they’re saying, but translated, it probably means, “Can we pull over at the next truck stop and clean our our shorts?”
