Dread Media

This past week, one of the great legends of comic book art passed away. And Chris and Desmond take some time away from their Tomb of Dracula retrospective to pay tribute to Gene "The Dean" Colan. They talk about his impact in comic book history straight up to his Eisner Award-winning swan song in Captain America #601. Then hear the words from the man himself as they leave with a full replaying of the original, unedited interview Desmond conducted with The Gentleman on 06 April 2009 in episode 84. RIP Gene Colan (1926-2011). Send feedback to: feedback@dreadmedia.net, or 206.203.1213. Join the Facebook group! Follow us on Twitter @dreadmedia.

It's the second installment of Dread Reel-ief, and the boys from the Commonwealth cover the 1994 Jim Carrey vehicle, The Mask! "But guys," you say, "The Mask isn't a horror film." "You're right, but listen here, bucko! This here is a mini-podcast dedicated to adaptations of horror comics. Not all of them are going to be horror films." Boom! Swerved ya!
