Atop the Fourth WallSeason 7
Linkara is a witty, sarcastic young adult who reviews comic books of very poor detail, ranging from bad artwork to bad writing. Occasionally, characters from the comics as well as the comics themselves come to life and terrorize Linkara. Not only that, but other-worldly creatures often invade his house and try to take him hostage. He survives it all using his vast knowledge of comics and their many faults.

- Comic Book Quickies #4
E4Comic Book Quickies #4Linkara reads more Comic Book Quickies. Today's mish-mash of madness includes Spider-Man slinging Hostess fruit pies, Johnny West pushing Acme boots, a young woman looking for love in all the wrong places, and Spidey once again leading the fight in a battle between good and cream-filled. - Energy and Safety with the Justice League
E5Energy and Safety with the Justice LeagueWhen they're not out saving the world from super-villains, the Justice League go around town lecturing people on proper energy consumption, conservation and preserving our environment by any means necessary. In other words, it's another edition of PSA Hell. This one brought to us by our friends at Con Edison. Linkara finds the whole thing energy draining. - ROMtrospective: ROM Spaceknight #1-40
E7ROMtrospective: ROM Spaceknight #1-40Linkara begins his retrospective of ROM, the toy-turned-comic-superhero epic about a robot warrior who wanders the universe for 200 years before arriving on earth, with the first 40 issues of the short-lived metallic hero's saga. Meanwhile, Pollo gets a new voice. - ROMtrospective: ROM Spaceknight #41-75
E8ROMtrospective: ROM Spaceknight #41-75Linkara continues his little ROM-trospective, by showcasing the final 34 issues, featuring our robotic hero defending earth from the Dire Wraiths, a species of shape-shifting aliens who wreak untold havoc on the masses. But he won't be going at it alone. A distress call is put out, and the gang is all here. - The Star Wars #1
E9The Star Wars #1A short time ago on a green couch not-so-far away, Linkara reviewed the comic adaptation of George Lucas' very early draft of Star Wars. General Skywalker is pitted against Darth Vader without a mask and the Emperor without a cloak. Weird and nonsensical, but he doesn't have a bad feeling about this. - Big Bang Presents #3: Protoplasman
E12Big Bang Presents #3: ProtoplasmanLinkara reviews a request comic from a series that pays homage to the Gold and Silver Age of comics. This one is about Dr. Fang, a nefarious Nazi vampire banished to America, where he wreaks untold havoc. Only the unadulterated, champion of justice, known only as Protoplasman, a man comprised entirely of protoplasm, can stop him. - Titans: Scissors, Paper, Stone
E15Titans: Scissors, Paper, StoneLinkara looks at an Elseworlds Teen Titans comic. He finds that because it is an Elseworlds comic, it has nothing to do with the established Teen Titans. It's an Anime comic that takes place in a strange world full of self-awareness, clichés, cyborgs, explosions, giant asteroids and scientific mumbo-jumbo jargon straight from Dr. Insano's wet dreams. - Batman: Shadow of the Bat #57
E16Batman: Shadow of the Bat #57After chasing away a slew of convention cameos, Linkara kicks off another PSA Hell. This one featuring that photosynthesized femme fatale: Poison Ivy. She teams up with Dr. Jason Woodrue, who broke her out of Arkham, and has a diabolical plan of conquering the world by way of marijuana. - Comic Book Quickies #5
E17Comic Book Quickies #5This batch of comic shorts consists of an Aquaman story in which he does absolutely nothing and there's a buried treasure of Hostess Twinkies. Then, Indiana Jones and his junior token sidekick encounter a strange temple that is said to be doomed; and finally, Captain America rescues Nick Fury from the Trapster by bribing him with Hostess Fruit Pies. - Avengers Assemble Featuring Captain Citrus #1
E18Avengers Assemble Featuring Captain Citrus #1Orange sales have decreased dramatically in Florida. In fact, it's such a big deal that Marvel decided to release a PSA comic about it in which the Avengers join forces with Captain Citrus, an all powerful being that can shoot sunbeams from his eyes but has little to do with citrus, to battle an invasion of androids. - Star Trek: The Next Generation/Doctor Who: Assimilation Squared #1-8
E19Star Trek: The Next Generation/Doctor Who: Assimilation Squared #1-8Worlds collide as two of Linkara's favorite franchises, Star Trek and Doctor Who, come together in an eight comic mini-series. The battle for both time and space is on as Linkara reviews all crazy eight issues while dispersing his vast knowledge of the Starfleet crews, the 12 Doctors and especially, the Cyber Men. - The Punisher #61-62
E22The Punisher #61-62Linkara continues the story of Luke Cage and a black Punisher hit the streets to stop a violent gang war. Then it becomes an action-adventure, superhero version of The Odd Couple in which Cage is the moralistic hero who won't kill, and Frank Castle is the vigilante with nothing to lose, and this causes endless bickering between them. - Ultimate Power #1-2
E24Ultimate Power #1-2For his 350th episode, Linkara finally gets around to talking about a comic artist that's been a thorn in his side for some time: Greg Land, tracer extraordinaire. Linkara reviews his Ultimate Power series that features Marvel's top heroes and universes almost literally collide. - Homestuck Act 1
E25Homestuck Act 1Ask and ye shall receive. Linkara's dedicated and semi-loyal Patreon sponsors have requested he review a web comic. Not very partial to that particular medium, Linkara fulfills their request anyway and looks at Homestuck, Act 1. It's unlike any comic he's ever reviewed before, because this one is interactive. - Atomic Robo vol. 3
E26Atomic Robo vol. 3Linkara's Patreon sponsors provide him with another good comic, but a very strange one. It follows the adventures of Atomic Robo, a man with the body of a robot, created by the great Nikola Tesla, as he, along with Charles Fort and Carl Sagan attempt to stop H.P. Lovecraft's mutated monster from devouring the entire world. - Just Imagine Stan Lee Creating Superman
E27Just Imagine Stan Lee Creating SupermanThis month, Linkara looks at a mini-series that shows what it would be like if Mr. Marvel himself, Stan Lee, created the DC Universe. Today, it's his version of Superman: a man named Salden who battles terrorists in a far away galaxy, but when he winds up on earth to find his lover's killer, he finds he's developed some form of enhanced super powers. - Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger Episodes 17-22
E31Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger Episodes 17-22Never to be one to shy away from breaking format, especially when his semi-loyal Patreon sponsors demand it, Linkara reviews a few episodes from the Japanese TV series that spawned his biggest obsession - er, his favorite show and heroes of all time, The Power Rangers. - The Tandy Computer Whiz Kids: The Computer Trap
E32The Tandy Computer Whiz Kids: The Computer TrapTime for more adventures of the Tandy Computer Whiz Demon Spawn. Today's tale is a step backwards, and not just in human evolution, for this is the second comic published about Alec and Shanna, in which they band together to stop terrorism...and sell Tandy Computers, making Linkara wanna crash. - Pokémon RéBURST Ch. 1
E34Pokémon RéBURST Ch. 1Linkara reviews a Pokémon Manga. Although he had sworn never to review a Manga, he is not someone to bite the hand that feeds him. Reburst, Chapter 1 is a cryptic, obscure Pokémon book with oddly-translated "Engrish" and is darker and more violent than the usual pocket monster adventures. - Team Youngblood #1
E36Team Youngblood #1Hope everybody got their Youngblood's Disease shots because Linkara is going to review another Youngblood comic. This isn't part of the main series, it's actually a sub-series. Issue #1 features a powerful, diabolical madman named Giger, who takes over a space station orbiting Earth, and only a ragtag group of weird superheroes can save the day. - US-1 #5
E37US-1 #5Picking up where the last issue left off, U.S. had just finished a race with Baron Von Blimp with a blimp versus a truck. Now he's in another race, this time against another truck, being driven by Ulysses' old flame Taryn. The race takes him to a maze full of natural disasters, up to and including beings from another world. - The Star Wars #2
E38The Star Wars #2A long time ago from a comic publisher not far enough away came The Star Wars #2, and the Force is not strong with this one. Picking up where the last one left off, General Luke Starkiller sends his son Annikin to pick up Princess Leia, and when he does, he punches her because he's a dick. Also, R2 and C-3PO show up and the little droid actually talks. Outside of all that and an awkward space battle, it's nothing to shake a gaffi stick at. - Power Man and Iron Fist #79
E39Power Man and Iron Fist #79Linkara reviews a comic featuring Power Man and Iron Fist, and it's basically the genres of blaxploitation and kung-fu getting into a head-on collision. Who requested this, the Cinema Snob? The story features our heroes investigating some mysterious occurrences going on backstage of a Broadway theater, featuring robots, time travel and an unexpected connection to the franchise of a famous time lord. Can you guess Who? - Nightmares on Elm Street #1-2
E40Nightmares on Elm Street #1-2One, Two, Linkara's coming for you. That's right, he's reviewing issues #1 and 2 of Nightmares on Elm Street to welcome the Halloween season. This series serves as a prequel to the film Freddy's Dead, and hints at a possible connection between Freddy Krueger and Jack the Ripper. - Spider-Man: Virtual Mortality
E43Spider-Man: Virtual MortalityLinkara wakes up after a long sleep, and a battle of wits with Freddy Krueger, in time to celebrate his 7th anniversary. And of course, the Spider-Man Clone Saga is further explored to mark the occasion. The real Spider-Man finally stands up and starts anew the Skarlett Spider. - More Fun Comics #73
E44More Fun Comics #73Secret Origins Month 2015 begins with the story of Green Arrow. In this harrowing implausible first adventure, the green-clad archer and his sidekick Speedy (Roy Harper) set out to stop a killer who murders those who share surnames with famous historical figures. - Daredevil #1
E45Daredevil #1Linkara explores the secret origin of Daredevil: the man without fear. Though blind, his other senses are heightened, making him a force to be reckoned with. By day, he's Matt Murdock, a well-ready attorney. How he got to this point is a very strange, yet intriguing tale as only Stan the Man could deliver. - Zombies Christmas Carol #1-3
E50Zombies Christmas Carol #1-3So many re-tellings of Charles Dickens' classic tale of A Christmas Carol, each with their own unique spin. Take Marvel for instance, who felt what this timeless story was missing was the undead. Join Linkara as he reads issues 1-3 of Zombies Christmas Carol - or The Walking Humbug. - Zombies Christmas Carol #4-5
E51Zombies Christmas Carol #4-5Linkara resumes the zombie version of A Christmas Carol in which Scrooge is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come - or will never come. The specter shows Scrooge a future in which zombies have taken over the world, as well as his whole house. The miser must learn to embrace Christmas and show good will to his fellow man in order to save the human race. Yep, just as Charles Dickens intended. - Another 15 Missed Opportunities of AT4W
E52Another 15 Missed Opportunities of AT4WLinkara comes down with another case of "I should've said that" and looks back on 15 occasions when he reviewed a comic and wish he had inserted a joke, a meme or poignant observation. To close out 2015, Linkara looks back at the Top 15 Missed Opportunities of Atop the Fourth Wall. Why Top 15? He likes to go 5 steps beyond.
