Our theme music is A Better Tomorrow by Dan the Automator. Other music found in this week’s episode was provided by the following sources: Big News Theme — Big News II by Clutch, Ludicrous Speed Round Theme — Fury of the Storm by Dragonforce featuring Dark Helmet, Comic Pushers Theme — Pusher Man by Curtis Mayfield, Me and Lazarus by Iron & Wine, Witchcraft by Marvin Gaye, Max the Hunter by Brian May, and other fine songs that are copyright/trademark their respective artists/owners, but didn’t get listed because Matt is still editing as I type these notes.
Dudes…What comic would be most like Mad Max?
You didn’t mention Hex (-the sci fi Jonah Hex title) that was most certainly cashing in on the Mad Max franchise in the 80’s!
Ah! Good catch!
