I cast Magic Missile on the Darkness! Is what I WOULD say if this was the early 2000s and that was still a relevant reference! Alas, it is not, so instead I will point your attention to this film from the 2000s when that joke would still work! So crack open that Monster Manuel, and roll initiative for this encounter!
GOBBLE GOBBLE! It’s time we pay thanks to the film that brought this current iteration of the podcast together! That’s right, its time for the Resurgence of Shin Godzilla! After 8 years of doing this show, it was a real treat to finally record a version of my thoughts that you can all hear! Thanks for joining us on this NEARLY 10 YEAR LONG journey!
The Signals have returned! This episode we are once again tackling a request from someone who donated to https://archive.org/ ! Who donated and what did they want me to cover? None other than our patron Joejira, and he requested that I cover his favorite episode of Choujin Sentai Jetman. So sit back and enjoy the warm ramen-y goodness of this classic sentai show with us!
Like cracking open a cask of fine wine, your podcast heroes are going to pop open this VHS box to reveal… A D-D-D-D-DINOSAUR!? That’s right, and its not just any dino, its a Carno too! And that’s not all, it seems like this movie has a shockingly familiar plot!

One year after Catnapped CAPTURED our hearts, another anime was dropped into the hell pit know as “The Fox Box”, and this one was… actually one that me and my childhood best friend and life long anime companion Nick never saw. Due to an unfortunate time slot, we were already outside and running around the forest with water guns by the time those SWEET Casio tunes would kick off the show’s intro. So sit back and enjoy the show, as me and my best friend talk about this anime!
Special Thanks to Chris Degl (https://twitter.com/DEGL_TOONS) for recommending this classic!

What's this?! A Comic book on my tv-show themed podcast!? Why yes! I make the rules around here, and I can do whatever I want. Besides, I mostly know Trendmasters due to their very good commercials.
Speaking of very good! Eric Shuster is here to join me on this adventure! So sit back and let us talk you into a false sense of security and brace ourselves for bankruptcy... you know, in a metaphorical kind of way! Because this week on Tokyo Signals, we are covering Trendmaster's Godzilla! King of the Monsters: Monster Island Unleashed!
The Boys are back in town! Cameron and Rob, that is. Join us for a rip roaring adventure down south of the border in MEX-EE-COH as we cover the classic 50’s B movie: The Black Scorpion! But keep a look out for volcanos, high voltage wires, and scorpions OH MY!

2. Godzilla Rivals: Rodan Vs Ebirah
The Godzilla Rivals comic is BACK and this time that CLASSIC Showa Duo is teaming up to strike down the King of the Monsters! That’s right, Rodan and Ebirah! Wait… really? The plot is all about how Rodan and Ebirah were launched into outer space on a space elevator… but then it goes crashing back down to earth. Oh no! THe tagline is “Terminal Velocity meets Terminal Ferocity
3. Disney Plus Kong show
King Kong is BACK. The mouse is putting the KING back in the name, since it's legally distinct from Kong in the Legendary universe for some legal reasons that I still don’t fully understand. But yes, this will be a TV show based off of the original book.
4. All Eyes trailer
Whoa! In a small backwoods community SOMETHING watches over a little farm. And A local podcaster is ON THE CASE to discover what is UP. Seems like a neat spooky creature feature.
