Ep. 35: Adaptability in Comic Books
From movies, television, and novels to toys and streaming services, the G3eks team crew reviews the adaptations that appear(ed) in comic books. What works? What doesn’t work? Why do fools fall in love? And why is the once-popular Tarzan an under-rated afterthought in today’s marketplace? Star Wars, Star Trek, Conan, G.I. Joe, and more! Get your ticket, settle down in your favorite seat, and enjoy the show! (01:17:18)
