Fw Presents

Thanks to Fire & Water patron Michael Crouch for suggesting this topic! Shag, Siskoid and Paul discuss the late 1980s series The Maze Agency! Created by Mike W. Barr, and illustrated by a young Adam Hughes, it was a true “whodunit” mystery series. We discuss the art, the mysteries, and the realistic and developing relationship between the two protagonists. Along the way, we also share its publication history and mini-bios for Barr and Hughes. Come join us – the game is afoot!

Just in time for Halloween, FW Presents reviews the new Netflix horror miniseries MIDNIGHT MASS. When strange and unexplainable things happen to the people of dreary Crocket Island, is this the miraculous work of the newly arrived priest of Saint Patrick's, or is there something far more sinister and deadly at work in the night? Ryan Daly, Angela Drew, and Herman Louw discuss the plot, characters, and the terrifying themes, both supernatural and allegorical, of this acclaimed and creepy new show from creator Mike Flanagan. WARNING: Spoilers ahoy! DOUBLE WARNING: Lots of talk about religion, Catholicism, death, fanaticism, and resurrection from people who aren't experts in any of this. Let us know what you think!
