You know what we've been telling you happened to UK comics after STC? We get a couple of disturbing glimpses of it this issue. Bags of tat, three poundsworth of hail Marys, and what happened to Dave when Jasper Carrott came on.

#153 - The Pretention of Coolness - with Mark Hughes (@thesketchsector.bsky.social)

Sharper than a Cyber-Razor Cut! This podcast is your online guide to the Sega-sational world of the 1990's and the UK's official Sega comic: Sonic The Comic. Join the humes who think they're in charge, Dave Bulmer (a.k.a. DemonTomatoDave on YouTube) and Chris McFeely (creator of Transformers: The Basics on YouTube), as they review each issue from cover to cover, adverts and all, and explain what it was really like to grow up with Sonic The Comic as a piece of culture. Sonic Boomers (that's you, listeners) may also expect the occasional tangent about other pieces of 90's UK culture such as Woolworths and El Dorado. You can also read along with STCTP on each episode's webpage which can be found at stctp.zone and if that's STILL not enough content for you, join our Patreon at patreon.com/stctp for reviews of the Martin Adams Sonic novels (including an exclusive interview with the author!) as well as livestreams of Dave reading the awful Sonic fanfics he wrote as a teenager to Chris.
