That was my first edition of FRANKENSTEIN, as well.

I wish i had an extremely generous friend who would gift me an omnibus. Many more merry days to u. By the way, great special appearance of the furry friends too

The first crossover between Marvel and DC was in the late 1970s. So says my memory.

Hey, I'm also watching Star Trek TNG! And I'm about halfway through season five. I like how William Shatner and Leonard Nemoy kinda tie together Star Trek with The Twilight Zone.

Merry Christmas, Michael! You know I don’t think I ever finished Book of the New Sun, but what I read of it was awesome

Why am I watching this? Because all the festivities of the day are over, and I want to unwind. I checked out that Twilight Zone book from the library a few years ago. It was a terrific book. Very entertaining. Those Baen books were my proper introduction to Robert E. Howard's works. I had read individual stories in various anthologies, but Bran Mak Mork was the first full Howard book I read. About that second Superman-Spider-Man team up: John Buscema did amazing versions of Superman and Wonder Woman, but I think his rendition of the Parasite is the best version of that character. Great stuff!

Merry Christmas. I'm very thankful for your dumb channel 😊

my dad was always into all the old pulp adventure characters as he grew as a kid in the 40s and he'd always talk about the Shadow and DocSampson ,Tarzan stories, His uncle when we visited back home to where he grew up in central Illinois, he was a avid reader of all sorts of genres, but had mostly sci-fi and pulp adventure ,but also some medieval swords and magic fiction. but thats where i got my first novels of Shadow, Doc Sampson, The Destroyer, Conan, Tarzan. You've got me hyped up to get back to trying to start back at the beginning of DocSampson novels and actually read all of them from the first because I never had but a few of them and meant to try and collect more but i just kinda forget about it when Ive been so busy and tired for so many years. Its difficult to get motivated to read when I am so fatigued all the time from long covid illness. its hard to focus on things, so it makes it hard to sit down to read things as i tend to just fall asleep reading. but its funny that yours is the 2nd channel that made me think about Doc Sampson and the other old pulp adventure series. I want to get back to looking for the anthologies perhaps, so i can gather all of them easier.

Merry Christmas! 🎄

Merry happy Christmas and a fantastic new year! Keep it weird and sorcerous.

Merry Christmas! Hey, it's Rod Sterling's 100th birthday!!!

That Twilight Zone book is a perfect gift for Christmas 2024, which marks Rod Serling’s 100th birthday.

Jack Williamson, a Grandmaster of Sci fi, and some fantasy(and a horror classic, "Darker than you Think") had to say about Clifford D Simak. "Good fantasy - and that includes science fiction - takes off from the known for its flights into the new. Cliff Simak was a master of the art. His known was the rural Midwest that he loved. His new could reach to the ends of space and time, but never beyond reality. Even his cosmic aliens always had half human dimensions that made them believable. I loved him, as so many did, for his unfailing warmth and a wit that was keen but never cruel. I heard from him often during the painful time after his wife's death. His own death touched me deeply

Roger's not evil, he's just misunderstood and he probably has a hard time picking up chick's. Lighten up on the guy.

Hey, all the best stories are Pirate tales.

Merry Christmas Michael to you and the Lady of the Manor and, of course, Roger and have a happy New Year. Oh, and I can't forget Rhonda.🎄🎄☃️⛄️🎄❄️☃️⛄️

Thank you, Michael! God Bless! Love your cheer and keen interests! BTW, I was delighted to give a special copy of "The Worm Ouroboros" to my niece this Christmas! There are so many delights in the fantasy realm! Take care!

You should read Howard's Gent from Bear Creek stories. I have the first edition of the Gent from Bear Creek, one of maybe 14 or so that still exist. 😇

Here's hoping that BookTube catches wind of Alan Jacobs' THE PLEASURES OF READING IN AN AGE OF DISTRACTION.

I loved the thor from the 70s

Merry Christmas! So many things to bring joy!❤

I bet you REALLY love the Helfer/Baker/etc series.

Merry Christmas! Maybe the Michael and Roger Christmas variety show can become annual? I grew up on and learned a lot from The Twilight Zone, own several books about it and the great Rod Serling and yet somehow I still haven’t bought that book. I need to get on that!

Thank you Michael and merry Christmas. This video really helped me today. I hope your having a wonderful holiday.

How do you keep Roger from eating the doggies? Just wondering cuz it's Christmas.

I'm also currently watching TNG. It's fantastic. My two year old loves it.

Merry Christmas to you and yours, Mike! 🎄

A very Merry Christmas to you

I'm in the middle of the Legion volume and having a good time and I have the JLA book on the way. This line is good for me because I never quite got all the way on-board with the omnibuses and other formats. I'm not interested in post-Crisis stuff, and Golden Age work aside from Batman and Superman is a case-by-case basis for me - I'm not into the JSA book but I'll be all over that Plastic Man volume when it comes out (more Quality and Fawcett, please) - but Silver and Bronze age stuff makes me happy. I'd like to see some odd stuff done, like Sea Devils or Rip Hunter.

If you want an excellent, atmospheric, analogue-horror type reading of The Whisperer in Darkness then i recommend Dudley Knights' live Graveyard Shift its easily found. Bear in mind its a live reading lasting over 2 hours so its not perfect but i dont mind

Are there illustrations? Some black and white ink drawings in the style of Gustav Dores' way of illustrating Patadise Lost would work well.would be awesome....the talent is out there

What makes you think His work was fiction?😂 Lord Dunsanys' Pagania is great...Machen too. But HPL rules

I love The Twilight Zone! I am not sure I have seen every single episode. (I almost don't want to, because once you do that... there is no more. The remake doesn't count.) I would love to have the series on DVD. It's one of those shows that I would never get tired of watching.

Thanks for some great Christmas content. Merry Christmas to you and the lady of the manor 🎄

Merry Christmas, Michael.

Merry Christmas!

Rhonda! I love that dog

Merry Christmas! There was a posthumous collaboration of John Buscema with Gil Kane called "Superman: Blood of My Ancestors". He also did "Just Imagine Stan Lee with John Buscema Creating Superman", in which he was the sole artist. The entire Just Imagine series was essentialy an elseworlds though, and the imagery reflects that.

Merry Christmas Michael! 🎅

Nice to see Roger making an effort. 🥳🥳

Book of the New Sun - Definitely four books. And I love all four of the Don Maitz covers. Merry Christmas to you and yours! Sorry to see Roger looking a little stressed! I know the holidays can hit us hard sometimes.

You and Moid over at Death Media Cult talking up Book of the New Sun…added to the 2025 queue! Merry Christmas Michael, and eager to see what comes in the new year with your challenge.

Merry Christmas! I’m going to be doing a reread of Book of the New Sun next year so I look forward to hearing your thoughts. Also, I was on the REH Press site recently and I noticed that they have the Science Fantasy volume, with Almuric, listed as coming soon. I‘ll probably have to pick it up as I believe you’ve recommended it a few times.

Merry Christmas 🎅🏻

Roger looking especially festive this morning.... Book of the New Sun is actually 5 books with Urth of the New Sun....

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Michael

Merry Christmas, Buon Natale 🎅

Merry Christmas MKV!!
