Join us, as we celebrate the life and legacy of Stan Lee

We miss you

Greetings adventurers, and welcome to this weeks installment of The Surly Nerd! After our prelude, we head into comics where IDW has created a new Spider-Man title that is looking to bring more kids into comics. DC’s Black Label is getting expanded with some great Elseworlds titles and it looks like comic books are finally making a comeback.

Kicking off video game news this week, Microsoft is making huge waves with the acquisition of two major RPG developers. Microsoft also announced when mouse and keyboard support is coming to the Xbox and Playstation now is much bigger than anyone (including us) thought.

Over in the world of entertainment, Sabrina is going to be taking over Christmas (since Doctor Who isn’t). Pacific Rim and Altered Carbon are getting their own animated series on Netflix and Moonshadow might just be the next modern horror movie to scare us in a way that no other movie has done before.

Our epilogue this week is about the life and influence of the late Stan Lee.

As always, we appreciate all our adventurers who listen to the show every week and we look forward to your feedback on what we discuss! (info@thesurlynerd.com!)

Not nearly as stuffed as a Thanksgiving turkey, but damn near as tasty…we are, The Surly Nerd!

Welcome to our Thanksgiving holiday blowout special. To be perfectly honest, there’s not a ton of news this week but what we lack in news we make up for in general fucking off.

Level one is technology news, where we cover Firefox 64, the new Xbox casual model, Hulu Plus for Wii U, HPs fourth quarter earnings and what was really going on with that Warner Brothers app. From there we head to level two, entertainment news. More Star Wars, Deus Ex and Hobbit talk takes the stand. A little chatting about Thor 2 and the future of Community before our Drinks at the Inn segment. The news list might seem short this week but we promise it’s worth the listen.

Grab some Thanksgiving leftovers and settle in with us here on…The Surly Nerd
