Before launching the Valiant Universe with the likes of Turok Dinosaur Hunter, Magnus Robot Fighter, Harbinger, and more, Jim Shooter's Valiant Comics published a handful of Nintendo-licensed comics in 1990-91 based on Mario, Zelda, Game Boy, and Captain N. Is there enough discussion-worthy content within those issues to justify/fill an 82-minute episode? Nope! -- but 1990s game nostalgia / game-adaptation discussions abound!
This episode exists to celebrate one of Justin's other podcasts -- the BAY STREET VIDEO PODCAST -- hitting 200 episodes, and devoting an hours-long special subscriber episode to reviewing the new mega boxset of the 1993 Super Mario Bros movie just released from Umbrella Entertainment! Look up and subscribe to the BAY STREET VIDEO PODCAST wherever you get your 'casts for discussion of just-released boutique blu-rays in stock at one of the last video stores in Toronto.
