Andy Nardvall [https://linktr.ee/andynordvall] is a writer who’s worked in everything from screenwriting, to podcasts, to web [https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/my-roommate-the-internet/list?title_no=110358] and physical comics [https://www.amazon.com/Sirens-Song-Andy-Nordvall-ebook/dp/B07BJCQDT4?ascsubtag=srctok-e13a37831c34dad1&btn_ref=srctok-e13a37831c34dad1].

Bad Future [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/andynordvall/bad-future-volume-one-a-comic-anthology-of-dark-sci-fi] contains stories of, well, bad futures. Moments in the near future which are dystopian in their nature. Inspired by works like Blade Runner [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083658/], Bad Future [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/andynordvall/bad-future-volume-one-a-comic-anthology-of-dark-sci-fi] features various creators looking at the world that may be coming through a somewhat pessimistic lens.

On this episode of the Part-Time Fanboy podcast, Kristian chats with Andy and Ben about making a comic book anthology in a present that isn’t necessarily the most optimistic of times about possible futures that could be worse than where we are now.

It’s April! In celebration of April Fools’ month, every week this month we at the Part-Time Fanboy clubhouse will be talking about our favorite “bad” movies. Movies we love, but that other people may not have such a favorable opinion of. This week, we’re chatting about the 1981 Western vigilante bomb, The Legend of the Lone Ranger [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082648/?ref_=fn_all_ttl_1]! After the blockbuster successes of Star Wars [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076759/?ref_=fn_all_ttl_1] and Superman [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078346/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3_tt_8_nm_0_in_0_q_Superman], the studios went on a frantic search for any nostalgic “heroic” property they could get their hands on. Eventually the gaze of the studios fell upon The Lone Ranger [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lone_Ranger], whose adventures were originally detailed in radio shows, dime store novels, and finally television. When the time came for Kemosabe [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ke-mo_sah-bee] to get the big screen treatment the producers of the film decided to cast a complete unknown, Klinton Spilsbury [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0445719/?ref_=tt_cst_t_1], for the part of the titular Ranger. Unfortunately, the big screen adaptation of the Lone Ranger’s adventures didn’t sit well with critics or audiences at the time. On this episode of the podcast, Kristian has an old fashioned showdown with Joe Slepski [https://www.instagram.com/joeonjoepod/] (of the Joe on Joe Podcast [https://www.joeonjoe.com/]) and Keith Howell [https://www.profchallenger.com/] on whether The Legend of the Lone Ranger [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082648/?ref_=fn_all_ttl_1] is as bad as its reputed to be. Is Klinton Spilsbury [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0445719/?ref_=tt_cst_t_1] the worst actor to every grace the silver screen? Is Tonto [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonto] more than a badly rendered Native American stereotype? Should The Lone Ranger have shown up earlier in the film? The answer to these questions and more await you on this episode of the Part-Time Fanboy podcast! Part-Time Fanboy. Full-Time obsession on a Part-Time schedule.

When he comes across a specific town, however, its inhabitants aren’t necessarily charmed by his melodious tones. On this episode of the Part-Time Fanboy podcast, Kristian chats with Kylar about how the Dungeons and Dragons [https://www.dndbeyond.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoqKFuuIK7kZxRKit8jdKrg2IdYp0Cz3npdjK8Ich0-yJ7K5HT5M] role playing game was a definitive factor in the creation of his comic and why he decided to write and illustrate a comic completely on his own.
