In this episode of Original Geek, Steve and Jeff dive into the radioactive vat of comic book nostalgia—from the days of Richie Rich and spinner racks to MCU blockbusters and spandex evolution.

🎭 Who’s the best Batman? (Hint: It’s Keaton vs. Bale in Geek Court)
💥 What comic book movie was an epic fail? (Sorry, Green Lantern)
🦸‍♂️ Which heroes defined Gen X geek culture? (Wolverine, we see you)

Plus: basement treasures, costume glow-ups, and why Gen Z needs to stop tanking shows like The Acolyte.

If you remember plastic bags, foil covers, and comic shops that smelled like dust and dreams—this one's for you.

🧠 Tell us your favorite superhero, your first comic, or what deserves a reboot. Hit us at OriginalGeekPodcast.com and join the tribe.

Welcome to Original Geek—the podcast for anyone who rolled their first d20 on shag carpet, waited hours for a comic book JPEG to load on dial-up, and wore the label “geek” back when it got you mocked, not monetized.

Hosted by stand-up comic Steve Scarfo and Forever DM Jeff Shaw, we dive deep into what it meant to be a geek in the '70s and '80s—and how that underground culture became the mainstream multiverse we live in today.

🎙️ Subscribe for weekly episodes on Dungeons & Dragons, Star Wars, comic book chaos, geek court debates, and critical hits from your childhood basement.
