(VIDEO) Our Watchers Wear Spandex

This was one of the many interviews I did for documentaries that were never finished, way back in the Spandex days. This particular film this was intended for was being made a fine chap named Ian Fischer, who then steered his energies towards completing a bleak yet absolutely riveting documentary on troubled comics legend Steve Rude.

Mr. Fischer asks excellent questions and we go deep into the esoteric and occult aspects of comic books and superheroes. I'd done a lot of research in Vril and Hollow Earth and all the rest on it while working on Spandex and we wander similar by-ways in this discussion.

We also hit on the occult influences of Alan Moore, Grant Morrison and Neil Gaiman, as well as the apocalypticism of Dark Knight Returns. This is all part of the overall Vril continuum, which we'll see as we go forward.

I forget which year this was done: I'd said 2012 on the Sun, but given the lack of gray in my hair - and the fact that I talk about Avatar like it was still actually relevant - leads me to believe this probably more like 2010.
