Smark & Friends: Episode 90 | Myth and Kayfabe with Disciple author Todd Matthy

Your favourite wrestler WISHES he could handle this lore! On this episode of Smark & Friends, we welcome writer Todd Matthy, creator of DISCIPLE! A comic that blends equal measures of Monday Night RAW and American Gods, Disciple tells the tale of Jesse, an aspiring pro-wrestler that makes a Faustian bargain with the God of War himself!
The campaign to fund Disciple was launched on Kickstarter earlier this month. Between this episode's recording and release, Disciple reached its funding goal and is presently pursuing awesome stretch goals! Visit the project's Kickstarter for more! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/disciplecomicbook/disciple/
"Todd Matthy tells a unique and compelling story in the most creative way as a timeless battle of immortals crosses paths with the world of modern-day professional wrestling. The ring has always been a platform to settle disputes, and these deities have more at stake than the loyal fans watchings can fathom"—Rob Van Dam
“This is smart and original. I very much enjoyed what I read, I see potential, and I heartily endorse this project”--Mark Waid
“Good job. Way to testify”- D’Von Dudley

Smark & Friends #87 | Guardians of Justice Review with Ross W Berman IV and Mr. Warren Hayes

[SPOILERS, CW/Self Harm] It has been a while since we reviewed a film or a series involving a wrestler - fortunately, Adi Shankar dropped a new series on Netflix, and it stars the master of the Diamond Cutter, Diamond Dallas Page!
Guardians of Justice follows Night Hawk (Page), a costumed vigilante investigating the apparent suicide and possible murder of Marvelous Man, a hero from another world whose godly power kept the world in peace by keeping its power in check. Among Night Hawk's suspects; his and Marvelous Man's own superhero cohorts, The Guardians of Justice!
Joining us for the review is a pair of all-stars in the wrestling content and journalism sphere of the internet; Ross W Berman IV (WrestleZone, Tama's Island) and Mr. Warren Hayes (The Mr. Warren Hayes Show, belltobelles.com). Join us as we explore the plot, performances, and absolutely BONKERS visual style featured in Guardians of Justice

Smark & Friends: Episode #86 | Tabletop Games and Other Friendship Destroyers

Tabletop gaming and pro-wrestling collide! Hot off the launch of their Kickstarter, we speak to Steven Dalton & Dante Richardson, two of the developers of Micro Titans: Wrestling, a unique card & dice game capturing the magic and drama of professional wrestling. In the case of this first season of the game, MicroMania, the game is set in the 87-93 golden era of wrestling.
Steven is a video game programmer, life-long wrestling fan, and creator/vision holder to Micro Titans: Wrestling, who entrusted Dante (editor at Inside The Ropes magazine) and his wealth of pro-wrestling knowledge to help shape the game to fit the golden era vibe in aesthetic and gameplay.We talk game mechanics - specifically how to emulate that pro-wrestling feel in a card & dice game. We see some of the beautiful game art by Carlos Aurelio. We even talk a little about how Joe Hendry had a major hand in game development
As mentioned, the Kickstarter for this project is LIVE and running until March 31st. You can make your pledge - did we mention Zak's a huge tabletop geek? You know he pledged - at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/micro-titans/micromania/description.Keep an eye on the Smark & Friends platform here on Love Wrestling. Steven was kind enough to send a prototype of the game, and we'll be playing and unboxing very soon!#Tabletop #ProWrestling #Kickstarter
