  • Sleepwalker #19 with Bobby Trippett
    Jan 30 2026

    On this episode Matt and special guest co-host Bobby Trippett (host of the GRINDBIN PODCAST) mask up and enter the Mindscape so they can discuss 1992's SLEEPWALKER #19.

    If you love deep dives into lesser known characters, then this is the episode for you!

    As per usual, Matt thought he knew a decent amount about Sleepwalker, but it turns out that he was wrong. Fear not though because Bobby reveals himself to not only be a superfan, but a true Sleepwalker expert/dream master.

    But can Bobby answer the question - Is Sleepwalker a bad teammate? And what does he think about Matt's theory that Sleepwalker is the A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET Part 2 of superhero comics?

    You'll have to stay awake and listen to find out!

    Intro music from the song "Doin' What We Do" by the always amazing Mustard Plug (https://mustardplug.com/)

    This time Doug Wortel and Spillway Sound had nothing to do with the audio, so direct any and all complaints to Matt because he is the reason the theme song doesn't fade out, but instead just abruptly stops.

  • Shadowman #19 with Doug Wortel
    Jan 27 2026

    On this episode Matt and special guest host Doug Wortel (producer of RANDOM ACTS OF COMICS with TODD DEZAGO) try their best not to close their eyes because they don't want to miss a thing while talking about 1993's SHADOWMAN #19.

    It's safe to say that this is the wildest episode of Does This Come in Chromium yet -- and honestly, with Aerosmith guest starring in a superhero comic, how could it be anything but wild?

    Matt spends an inordinate amount of time feeling old as he explains the little differences between MTV and VH1 in 1993, while Doug reveals that he is in the "Paradise City" video.

    Also, Matt and Doug agree that writer/artist Bob Hall deserves incredible amounts of praise for his work on this issue. It is truly a feat to behold!

    Long live Joey Hotsauce!

  • Chain Gang War #1 with Will Pfeifer
    Jan 21 2026

    On this episode Matt and special guest co-host Will Pfeifer (writer of CATWOMAN, HERO, AQUAMAN) try not to get caught by the chromium chain and sent to the House of Corrections as they discuss 1993's CHAIN GANG WAR #1.

    Despite never having read an issue until now, CHAIN GANG WAR has loomed inexplicably large over Matt's comic book reading life. And yet, he still can't figure out exactly why DC Comics decided to publish the series in the first place. But he also wants to read the other 11 issues. Matt's complicated.

    Will just learned that CHAIN GANG WAR exists (he was too busy reading hipster comics or "comix" in the 1990's) but he quickly develops an appreciation for its extensive usage of sound effects and the fashion style of one particular character.

    Also, ATTENTION WRITING NERDS: Will shares some fantastic insights on his writing process. Spoiler alert: More stick figures than you'd expect are involved.
