Aside from comics, Matt also recounts his recent experience attending Rifftrax Live, everybody shares their favorite episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000, and they talk about some recent trends in video games and the superhero movie genre.

Join Lily, Shawn, and Scott as they enter the dark and brooding world of everybody's favorite hooded archer: Arrow! Listen as they take you through the history of the Green Arrow in comics, discuss why almost everybody in this show is a terrible person, and explain why this is just The CW's grittty mix of Batman, Robin Hood and My Name is Earl, with a little Hamlet and Harry and the Hendersons thrown in.
