AKIRA 4K Theater Review, Marvel No-Prize Lore & Star Trek III at 60

The League crew reunites as John Hunt joins Matt Dursin and Clay N. Ferno to break down theatrical re-releases, anime milestones, and vintage comic lore.

We review the 4K theatrical presentation of AKIRA, debating the manga versus movie adaptation and classic dubs. We then unpack comic book history with a rare 1983 Marvel No-Prize book and a Stan Lee "No Thanks" letter, exploring classic continuity fixes and fandom culture. We cap it off by celebrating 60 years of Star Trek with Star Trek III: The Search for Spock and "Amok Time," ranking Enterprise designs and sharing memories from John's run as an IDW Trek colorist.
