Chris and Reggie's Cosmic Treadmill ep. 106 - Captain N: The Game Master #1 (1990)


Blowing On the Comic Book Does Not Make it Better

Ready player one: start! In this episode, gamers Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) dive into the weird world of Videoland when they read Captain N: The Game Master #1, published in 1990 by Valiant Comics! After a brief look at the history of video games and Nintendo, our Italian plumbers read all four stories in the issue, providing creator biographies whenever it "seems" applicable. After a short break, the guys return to provide an exhaustive history of Valiant, thanks to exhaustive research by Ryan McLelland, and talk about some of Nintendo's less popular innovations. It's more fun than you can shake a joystick at, and you won't even need to put your quarters up!

  1. Hey folks! Loved the deep dive into the cosmic side of DC in this episode; there’s nothing like those classic storylines to get you thinking. Sometimes, after a long session of reading or listening to podcasts, I like to shift gears into something a bit more interactive. I’ve actually been spending a lot of time on https://betscorecasino.ca/ recently for some fun and excitement. Based on my experience, it’s a really well-run site with a great atmosphere that’s perfect for a quick gaming session. The variety of options there is huge, so I never get bored, similar to how I feel about the endless DC multiverse! I’d honestly recommend it to anyone here looking for a reliable and fun platform. It’s been my favorite discovery this month.
