"New York, New York, is everything they say and no place that I'd rather be," is what The Black Flame would say if he fronted an 80s rock band. These are the kind of crucial scenarios we examine on this special episode. Matt Strackbein, The Letterhack, returns to the podcast to ask "How do the current stories leave you looking back at the old stories?" "Villians, what was their deal?" And 'What would happen if Satan had set an alarm to wake him from his nap?" We've never lied to you, Bookclub Members, and we are your only hope... for a Hellboy podcast this week...
