Play Comics is a show where Chris and a guest takes a look at a video game based on a comic property and how well the game sticks to the source material.

Over the Hedge with Doug Fink (Walloping Websnappers, Novel Gaming, Falling with Style, Skreeonk)
Sometimes a game says it’s based on a comic. Sometimes a movie says it’s based on a comic. And sometimes a game says it’s based on that movie that says it’s based on a comic, and suddenly we’re three layers deep in adaptation lasagna. This week, we’re cracking open Over the Hedge for the PS2, GameCube, and Xbox—a game that definitely follows the movie’s lead and only politely waves at the original comic strip from across the yard. Expect sneaking, snacking, and more suburban chaos than your average HOA meeting can handle. Joining the show is Doug Fink (Walloping Web Snappers, Falling with Style, Novel Gaming, and Skreeonk) to help sort out what happens when animals, energy drinks, and licensed games collide in one very busy backyard. Grab your energy drinks and questionable life choices. I hope you don't get pinched by the exterminator.
