Clone Saga Chronicles

15 Years Ago Today… Clone Saga Chronicles was born. Thus, the Spideydude Radio Network was born.

15 years ago, Joshua Lapin-Bertone and I released our very first podcast together. It was a last minute thing, something we were discussing when putting the show together and realized that there was a LOT of context to what we were going to talk about once the MAIN show started. Basically, we knew that we needed to discuss the original 1970s clone saga, and Josh was right. But I’m going to freely admit, that I wasn’t as prepared as I should’ve been. I had forgotten certain parts of the saga and Josh spent half the episode embarrassingly correcting my mis-remembering…

COhost on this episode is LEO Pond from the Dorkening Network. WILL Writer Gerry Conway Penciler Sal Buscema Inker Sal Buscema Colorist Bob Sharen Letterer Rick Parker Editor Jim Salicrup

Clone Saga Chronicles Episode 76: The End of An Era… The Final Episode.

It’s the End of an Era here on the Spideydude Radio Network. The Final Episode of Clone Saga Chronicles. This isn’t easy for me to type or write, nor was it easy to edit or even create this episode. We recorded this back in late April or early May and because of that, there will be some dated references. This episode is a tribute to our show, a tribute to the saga itself, and a tribute to the guys whose lives have changed in so many ways. Clone Saga Chronicles wasn’t the first show I did. That honor would be…

CSC Episode 75: DC vs. Marvel

After 10 years, we are winding down the show. Back in 2010, Zach guest appeared on the 104th episode of Michael Bailey’s Views From the Longbox to discuss the Clone Saga. Zach always wanted to bring him onto the show, but never felt that it was the right way to do so. However, after going through the list of appearances of Ben Reilly, there was one story that he had never covered: Marvel Vs. DC. In what would be the first trade paperback he would ever own, Zach knew there were three people that he wanted to bring forward: Michael,…

CSC Episode 74: Spider-Verse

New Episode! Zach is back with the final 2000s episode of Clone Saga Chronicles. He covers why it’s been a while since we last saw an episode, mentions some changes in regards to his past associations, and of course in this go-around, he is covering the 2015 Spider-Verse storyline, which has a lot of Ben, Kaine, Mayday, and Peter Parker. Zach’s focus is on Ben and Kaine aspects of the story, as the Mayday Mondays Gang covered it in their 10th episode. I would encourage you to listen to both, as it gives a more complete picture. ITEM: We are…

CSC Episode 73: Carrion & the Carrion Virus

SURPRISE! A new episode for CSC? Yes Please. This Episode is a solo effort by Zach to explain the long and sometimes strange history of the Carrion character and the Virus he would produce. Zach tackles nearly all the appearances of Carrion as follows: Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man 25-31 (original) Spectacular Spider-Man 149 (McBride) Spectacular Spider-Man 162-163 (McBride) Spider-Man: Maximum Carnage (McBride) Amazing Spider-Man 390-393 (McBride) Spider-Man: Dead Man’s Hand (Dr. Allen)

CSC Episode 72: Revelations…Part Four & Osborn Journal

There is a sense of the beginning of the end of this show. Peter Parker: Spider-Man 75 was the first time I had read a comic starring Peter Parker that wasn’t a tie into the cartoon (Adventures of Spider-Man) or a back issue since my very first issue, Spectacular Spider-Man 223. It was an introduction to Norman Osborn that I had only seen in the 90’s show, that leveled him to the top of the food chain in terms of Arch-villains. It’s one of, if not my single favorite issues of Spider-Man of all time, notwithstanding other issues such as…

CSC Episode 71: Revelations… Part One-Three

Here it is. Finally. The beginning of the end, for both Ben Reilly as we knew him, and of this show. It’s been nearly 10 years, with unforeseen twists and turns, but it’s finally here. I’ll share more thoughts on a lengthy post later, but for now, enjoy the first three parts of Revelations, with Josh, Don, Gerard, Greg, and Zach. Issues Covered in this Episode include:Spectacular Spider-Man 240Sensational Spider-Man 11Amazing Spider-Man 417
