The Fellowship is pleased to present another Casting Call episode, this time for a modern film version of DC's Creature Commandos. They were in the title Weird War Tales, and they were a group of "traditional" movie monsters fighting for the good guys in World War 2. This one presents us with some interesting ideas, being somewhere between superheroes, movie monsters, and traditional drama stories. Plus our usual tangents galore and our comics picks of the week.
