Nitro Game Injection #136: Rhinocerous Blastoseed (MAGFest Retrospective featuring Ian Flynn)

February 04, 2011 By: KyleJCrb Category: Past Episodes - Nitro Game Injection

This episode is PACKED! Kyle & Larry take a look back at the many acts of MAGFest, while Larry recounts some of his experiences, including how he managed to survive a flight out of Atlanta during the worst snow storm in recent history. Also, returning to the show for the third time: The awesome Ian Flynn! Ian is the current writer of the Sonic The Hedgehog comic, and is also hard at work on launching the upcoming MEGA MAN comic adaptation, both published by Archie Comics. He spends several hours (!) giving us insight into his work on comics, including dropping some news on upcoming events in the Sonic and Mega Man books, and brainstorms with Kyle & Larry on the prospect of a Mega Man X comic series.

Also, Larry leaves early. But Kyle doesn’t hold that against him.

Much.
