Ah, the 1950's in America. The witch hunts, the chauvinism, the paranoia... it really was a simpler, better time. This week, The Oncoming Storm is heading back to those wonder years in episode 127. First Frontier by David A McIntee see the Doctor, Ace, and Benny heading to this joyful time to witness the beginnings of the space race. Little do they know that in humankind's attempts to reach out to space, space has reached out to them! And what about that mysterious Major Kreer, with his pointy beard all of his chuckling? There's something familiar about him, but we can't quite put our finger on it... Eh, I'm sure it's nothing. The Oncoming Storm... this time, we've got those cute little gray aliens! You know, the probe-y kind!

After all of the intense feelings of mashing themselves together to form a super being, The Oncoming Storm hosts have finally separated and entered the next zone. This zone is, of course, episode 126 where Josh and Rachel are joined by guest Jeff Polier to discuss The Creed of the Kromen by Philip Martin. Following all of the strangeness of the last adventure, this one has the Doctor and Charley getting back to business fighting off alien monster invaders. But does that mean it's any good? Your hosts dig in to the Alpha Sphere to find out, and along the way, we all meet a new friend! The Oncoming Storm... this time we've got the Mentors back doing what they... what? We don't? They're Kromen? Are you sure???

Welcome to episode 125 of The Oncoming Storm! This week, we're back to McGann and the beginning of the Divergent Universe Arc with the discussion of Scherzo by Rob Shearman. Join Josh and Rachel, as well as special guests Scott Coles from The Legion of Substitute Podcasters and resident comic guru Jeff Polier, as they try to press themselves together hard enough to evolve into a superbeing. Failing that, they just talk about Doctor Who. Oh, but what a discussion. It's the one with all the feels, and Rachel can't wait to cry with you about it! The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got... nothing. It's just kinda all white light. Maybe we should all hum a tune together to pass the time.

It's been 2 months since The Oncoming Storm checked in on the Titan comics line, so it's now time to check out the 2nd issues of their new Doctor Who line in episode 124!

And in the 11th Doctor #2, The Doctor and Alice visit one of the Doctor's favorite beautiful planets... an interstellar amusement park?!?

This time, we got suckery things. Lots and Lots of Suckery things.
