Savage FINcast – Episode 21: Severe Tooth Pain!

Episode21

Prison rules apply on this episode of the Savage FINcast as Craig, Jim, and Raven sit down to review Savage Dragon 189!  Dragon enters a new phase of his life as he finds himself in the slammer along with all the Vicious Circle goons he once put away.  As you can probably guess, the inmates are not about to make him feel welcome! Intense action follows which begs the question– who is locked up with who?  Meanwhile, Ronald Winston Urass plans to make Dragon’s time in prison a groundhog day of never ending punishment!  I don’t think we’d be lying if we said this was most brutal issue of Savage Dragon yet!

In addition to our review of the Savage Dragon 189, we also run through the latest Erik Larsen-related news, and continue our  “Erik Larsen Trivia” segment, where we read your responses to last month’s trivia question and try to stump you with new one!  As always, we would love to hear from you!  Drop us a line at SAVAGEFINCAST (at) GMAIL (dot) COM to answer our trivia question, comment about the show, or suggest future discussion ideas. We will most likely read your letter on the next episode!

Episode20version1

Like a leafed through and dogeared comic book in a flea market bargain bin, the latest episode of the Savage FINcast arrives just in time for its cover to fall off.
