Hi, it's Mike Raub and we're back to our visit with Bruce Campbell and ask the question that Bruce gets asked, oh, maybe 3, 4, 5 times a day. What's the deal on Evil Dead? We got the answer and we'll share it right here coming up on. November 15th, 2008 ComicMix News.
If you're in the San Diego area, at least in the first part of December, there could be a great bargain for you to stuff your stockings and your Christmas tree with some great things from IDW. They're having their first ever sale of comic books and graphic novels at their San Diego headquarters.
Takes place on Saturday, December the 6th running from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. There'll be comics, magazines, up to 80% off on this, signed limited editions as well, and a lot of creators on hand to autograph their work including Ben Temple Smith, Chris Ryle, and Chris Maury as well. Get more information at IDW.com
This is an answer bringing two of the most popular anime series direct to the Xbox, Bleach and Death Note. Both Uncut and English Dubbed will turn up on the Xbox 360 as well. You'll have the ability to watch these episodes on a download to own basis through Xbox Live. Check your Xbox for more information.
Downloads have already begun. It's never too early to plan your holiday television viewing and CBS is bringing the classics back again. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer celebrates his 44th anniversary with a digitally remastered version.
That'll be aired Wednesday, December 3rd at 8 o'clock on the network. Frosty the Snowman is then set for Friday, December 12th at 8 o'clock immediately followed by Frosty Returns at 8.30. And for the folks of a newer generation, CBS will later feature film Elf on Saturday, December 20th at 8 p.m.
ABC has announced the fifth season premiere of Lost is on January 21st at 9 p.m. It'll be with two back-to-back episodes of course preceded by a Lost recap show that starts at 8 o'clock. For the new season you'll find Lost Wednesdays at 9 o'clock soon to be followed by another move from ABC in an attempt to keep the series life on Mars alive.
ABC is moving it to the 10 p.m. slot after Lost beginning in January. NBC is showing more faith in the fan favorite series, Life. They've ordered another nine episodes looking like they'll last for the entire season. Meanwhile, the CW and Warner Brothers have pretty much given up on the series, The Graysons, as the one that was going to be about Robin before he became Batman's sidekick
and was reported to be the replacement for Smallville on the CW network in the next year. So, no word on any other series that'll fill that slot has been announced. Hi, this is Rosario Dawson and you're listening to ComicMix. Back to our exclusive ComicMix interview with pop culture icon Bruce Campbell. Right now, Bruce is touring the country with his new movie, My Name is Bruce.
Be sure to check with theaters in your area after a lot of performances. Bruce is doing a Q&A right after the screening. In the meantime, in addition to My Name is Bruce and Burn Notice, Bruce is also doing some voice work. I'm doing a voice for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.
It's a kid's book from the 70s. It's coming out in 2010. All that being said, the topic that always comes up immediately is Evil Dad. First, the musical, which Bruce wasn't necessarily a part of, so did he like it? I laughed my ass off multiple times. You know, my favorite number is called What the Fuck Was That? But they took all three movies, which is very difficult to do, because they don't go together that well.
And they made it into a fun little beach blanket bingo kind of 50s horror thing. With great visual effects in the first three rows of this splatter zone. And they're going to get wet, you know, they're going to get blood. So they come dressed in white so they can get hit and then go home and save them. How about the actor settle with performing as Ash several times every week?
He did a great job because he's, you know, he's got to be dying by now. Like, I don't know what is keeping him on week to week. So the big question, what about the future of Evil Dad? And look, there's a reason why both the sequel and the remake have not gotten made yet. Because there was never a point where me and Rob Chappert and Sam Ray, me, the three partners,
looked at each other and went, oh my God, we've got to make another one of those right away. You know, Sam, as a family, I've got a five year contract with Burn Notice and Rob Chappert has a new TV show. So, you know, stuff happens. Things get delayed forever. There's more with Bruce. Our exclusive visit turns up on ComicMix dot com. Later this week. Don't miss it.

1974 This week down at the Spinner Rack, a few items from DC. House of Mystery still at a buck and this time we got issue number 229. Jack Kirby almost winding down on his stint with Commandee. It was issue number 26 but we got some classic Simon and Kirby in DC's reprint series of Black Magic that was up to issue number eight. There was Phantom Strange number 35, The Shadow without Mike Coluna but still some nice artwork from Frank Robbins.
That was at number nine and we got Wonder Woman number 216. Marvel repackaged some more classic stuff and Creatures on the Loose number 33. There was Conan number 46, Marvel premiere number 20 from the magazine side Savage Tales number eight. Marvel 2-1 number seven, Iron Man with some George Tusk artwork at number 72. There was KZara number seven, Mike Kluc's Frankenstein hit issue number 14 from Marvel.
1974 In the news, due to the nationwide cold strike, US Steel was forced to institute cutbacks numbering some 14,000 employees. Meanwhile, the coal miners got a new contract proposal. Many felt it looked hopeful. And also hopeful was Yasser Arafat who flew to the US to appear before the UN Security Council.
In the movies, the grown-ups went to see caged heat. They were perplexed with 11 Harrow House. There was a taking of Pelham one, two, three, California split and the one movie that was far better in the original. David Warden, I think this game's a big mistake. Captain, not only will you have the chance to hone our team to a fine edge,
you also have the opportunity to learn a great deal about life. Why is it, you suppose, that I can walk through this yard surrounded by hate and in total command? Of course, you got 15 gun turrets all around, you say you can. For Reynolds, Chris Christopherson in The Longest Yard.
On TV tonight, episodes of the Sandy Duncan Show, Little House on the Prairie. That's my mama, Cannon Lucas and my favorite lawyer of 1974. A great classic that deserves to be on DVD. I wonder if it is. NBC's Petra Celli.
1974. On a radio, a guy whose story almost sounds like a song in itself. He was the son of an Arkansas sharecropper. Started singing at age 10, had his own group in high school, and by the end of the 60s had a recording contract.
Right in the middle of a big decade at the top of the charts again. It's Al Green and… ComicMix. Back at the start of the week as we go shopping in the comic stores. You know, Black Friday is just a couple of weeks away,
