What makes someone a villain? And once you get that label in people’s head what can happen to get that label removed or switched? It’s tough. You’ve got to change minds and deal with people who will never forget your past no matter how much good you do now and will always treat you like the villain that they see you as. Well, we have Blair Farrell here to help figure out where that line is as we take a look at the 1999 Catwoman game for Gameboy Color. And long the way we’ll try to figure out if Catwoman has made amends for her previous criminal deeds or if she still has work to do to win us over. Learn such things as:  How can you keep the main character out of a spin off game? Which version of Catwoman are we talking about here anyway? Will we ever get her as a definitive villain or hero ever again? And so much more!  You can find Blair on Twitter @Blarcade and his website Comic Book Video Games,where you can links to his books The Web of Spider-Man Games: The Amazing and the (Not So) Spectacular and The Avengers in Video Games: A Guide to Solo Adventures and Mighty Marvel Team-Ups, with Creator Interviews.

Catwoman (1999) with Blair Farrell

I know, one of the problems with the show is that the handheld versions of games exist. And that if there’s a console version I tend to just ignore the hand held ones because, let’s face it, are they ever better than the console version anyway? Especially with a series like Turok that’s built around being a first person shooter on a screen that can show really good colors that’s also bigger than 2 square inches. That’s like 5 square centimeters for all of my listeners not in the US. Blair Farrell from Comic Gamers Assemble is here to help me see if my thought process even has any merit to it as we take a look at 5 different Turok handheld ports and see how they actually play without having to worry about those pesky home console games that always hog the spotlight. Learn such things as:  How do you even port these games down anyway? Why didn’t they just make a different handheld universe like TMNT? How are these games rated E? Why does Chris know conversions from inches to centimeters? Just kidding, that’s because he’s trying to go live in New Zealand. And so much more!
