Retro Reviews: Bring on the Bad Guys from Marvel & Fireside Books

Welcome to another Retro Reviews episode of King-Size Comics, Giant-Size Fun, KSCGSF for short! 

Just what are these "Retro Review" podcast episodes? Lazy Podcasting at it's finest! Kyle takes a Retro Review from 2011-2014 that he wrote for his comic shop and/or The Outhousers website from 2011-2014, and looks at the run and the review itself with 2021 Hindsight. This time out, I take a look at Bring on the Bad Guys, a special collection of the origin stories of some of Marvel's most heinous silver age villains, put out by Fireside Books in 1976.  

Of course you can listen to the podcast on ApplePodcasts, Stitcher, Libsyn, or download the episode directly here: Retro Reviews: Bring on the Bad Guys
