We chat, on stage, in front of an actual live audience, about Kickstarters and the enduring legacy of Marvel's TRANSFORMERS comics. We're at TFNation, bringing you our 29th The Rest is Giant Robots from a never-before-seen vantage point (it seems we have legs, both literally and metaphorically... who knew?), i.e. live, on stage, in front of a hugely appreciative crowd at the UK's premier TRANSFORMERS event, dissecting the recent Skybound compendium editions and just why it became the most subscribed comics Kickstarter of all time! This one really does have to be SEEN to be believed!wildfur.net

Ep028 - THE REST OF WHAT WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT THEN
EP 28: THE REST OF WHAT WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT THENWe delve into other stuff that kept us busy while Regeneration One was in full swing, inc. Death's Head, Doctor Who and The Ramones (??).Join us for a mixed bag of now and then, as we discuss the recent (and best yet?) TFNation (TRANSFORMERS convention) and revisit former career glories from nearly fifteen years ago, including the bits where Death's Head briefly returns to his rightful Marvel Comics place in print (and toy). Plus, a plan of sorts for next year's Draw Death's Head Day comes together and we hint at what's happening on TRANSFORMERS DAY (Sept 17). It's a bit of this, and a bit of that, yes?For more stuff and to become a Prime Member, visit wildfur.netHave questions? Email us at [email protected]

EP 27: THE INDIFFERENT TWO
We go to the movies, again, and do a lot of shoulder-shrugging and mutter 'meh' a lot as we 'review' Fantastic Four and other recent releases.With more than enough movies in our quiver, we take aim at the recent crop of multiplex-friendly summer blockbusters, including Fantastic Four: First Steps, Jurassic World: Rebirth, and - in less blockbustery and more bonkers way - 28 Years Later. Plus a bunch of others, culled from more home-based viewing, in which, faced with Galactus and a bunch of dinosaurs-that-never-were, the penguin wins fins down. Sequel coming soon!Fror more stuff visit WILDFUR.NET

EP 26- THE COMIC TO END ALL COMICS
We pick up the threads of our TRANSFORMERS Regeneration One discourse and go all the way to issue #100 in a 4-issue limited series!2013-14 saw us both in full Regeneration One swing, until one of us wasn't. We analyse the whys and wherefores of that, and how the series grew and evolved from a five-issue pitch into a 20+ issue beast, featuring guest artists Geoff Senior, Guido Guidi, Jose Delbo and more. Naturally, we lose the thread a few times, but we get to the end in the end. For those of you not signed up as Prime members, now would be a great time to try it out.

EP25: THE EDITOR WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD
It's our RIGR anniversary special - and our very special guest is TRANSFORMERS UK editor and ZOIDS writer Ian Rimmer!We debrief former IPC/Marvel UK editor and writer, Ian Rimmer, the man who shaped TRANSFORMERS UK (from the shadows) into the mid-80s market leader boy's adventure comic fans still talk about to this day. But who is this editorial enigma? What forces honed a clandestine photo-strip scribe into a publishing powerhouse? If you're expecting serious, in-depth discourse then you're new to this podcast!WILDFUR.NET
THE REST IS GIANT ROBOTS - A PODCAST THAT'S MORE THAN MEETS THE EAR.Writer Simon Furman and artist Andrew Wildman go back to the beginning... Charting a 40-year stint in comics, TV animation, games and more, including - of course - a healthy discourse on the rise and fall and rise again of TRANSFORMERS, also now 40 years old. In a series of roughly chronological, informal chats, Furman and Wildman relive the ups and downs and highs of lows of the creative life, spotlighting key moments in their respective, and joint, careers - many of which, naturally, involve giant, transforming robots. Nothing is off-limits, as Furman and Wildman delve deep into their (unreliable) memories, presenting a humorous but warts and all story of life inside the comics biz that is still...
