Kids that grew up reading comics were now making them; many of them were members of the counter-culture. Throw in a desire to do something all-new (and some fads like kung-fu) and you have all the makings of a wild decade of comics. Join Jacob Balcom & Matt Howell as they explore some of the craziest comics of the 1970s (and early '80s). Each season focuses on a different character.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-06T20:18:29.673660+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/bronze-age-monsters-1375870"},"episode":{"title":"S07E15: Atlas/Seaboard - Weird Suspense (w/ Matt Harvey!)","slug":"s07e15-atlas-seaboard-weird-suspense-w-matt-harvey","published_at":"2025-08-30T10:33:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/bronze-age-monsters-1375870/s07e15-atlas-seaboard-weird-suspense-w-matt-harvey","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/bronze-age-monsters-1375870","url":"https://werewolfbynight.libsyn.com/bam-s07e15-atlasseaboard-weird-suspense-w-matt-harvey","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/werewolfbynight/S07E15_Tarantula.mp3?dest-id=2301200","summary":"For our final season, we're covering the short life of Martin Goodman's Atlas/Seaboard comics by reviewing all the debut issues from their line.
