Your Weekend Buy-A-Thing Update
Hot on the heels of all the other stuff, here's the latest batch of Venture Bros. items from Adult Swim Shop:
- Acrylic Clock ($35) - It's a clock! For your wall! Contains the soundtrack logo and three hands! No numbers though, so you'd better memorize where they're supposed to be.
- Killinger Logo Notebook ($12) - If the Monarch journal wasn't enough for you then do we have a deal for you! This is all fancy and spiral and I dunno the pages probably have lines. Also there's a logo on it!
- Color Change Monarch Coffee Mug ($18) - The Monarch logo rears its head again, this time on a mug. It's one of those weird mugs that starts off black and becomes white when it contains a hot beverage. Freaky!
Self-Medication Promo
Here's this week's AS promo for the upcoming episode, Self-Medication:
By the way I feel I should (finally) mention that all of these have been uploaded by dinamistika so feel free to checkout their YouTube channel if you like.

Another Self-Medication Preview Clip
There's been a ton of these this season, but this week's second preview clip comes from The Flickcast. Be warned, this contains the voices of Patton Oswalt, John Hodgman, Seth Green and Brendan Small. You might get hurt by all the awesome.
Actual Final Episode Title Revealed
No good detective work goes unrewarded, or corrected. Jackson informs me that 'Ghosts' was actually just the working title and the final title for that episode (which they just put in the can, he just said they 'finished it', but 'in the can' amuses me) is Pinstripes & Poltergeists. You may begin speculating... now!
Self-Medication Preview
I know you're still all digesting yesterday's episode, but Adult Swim has a clip of next week's episode, Self-Medication, so save room for dessert!
Also I guess the suggested dessert is Coke Zero, but personally I recommend Pepsi Free.

Build Your Own DVD
Adult Swim Shop launched a pretty novel idea today, a build your own DVD feature. Using this tool you can build a custom DVD with 110 minutes of shows you select and a custom cover and DVD art. I was hoping to put together some kind of 'best of Venture Bros.' collection with the top five episodes (seen to the right), but with each episode clocking in at over 22 minutes you can only fit four on there. Still, it's a pretty cool idea for $20 and includes free shipping.
The Revenge Society Discussion
Welcome back friends, this week brings us another exciting episode of The Venture Bros. This episode potentially contains returning foes and a heaping helping of awesome. Use the comments to discuss the episode to your heart's content! Visitors be warned; HERE BE SPOILERS! So stay away if you haven't seen the episode (unless you enjoy being spoiled).

Final Season 4.1 Episode Title Detective'd
Astute reader Eric Araclides has pointed out to me that with some clever messing with Adult Swim's Venture Bros. episode guide you can uncover things not yet linked by changing URLs. For example here's the link to the upcoming Revenge Society, which is not yet in the main episode guide listing. So it goes to follow that you can check for the final episode based on the production number to find out that it will be called Ghosts (though that could also be a tentative title). Thanks Eric!
Exactly what my parents wanted for me! Guaranteed.
Return to Malice capsule/etc is ready for your perusal. Feel free to post additions and corrections as always. Oh, and don't forget that The Revenge Society is on tomorrow night!
Hey, Want To Buy Even More Stuff?
I foolishly assumed that when I made my most recent "here's some Venture Bros. merch" update that would be the last of it, but Adult Swim has proved me wrong! Here's the latest batch of stuff that's been added since:
- Black Hearts Ladies Shirt
($18.00) - Lady-style, with the Black Hearts logo from the shirt last season.
- Order of the Triad Shirt ($18.00) - Similar to the shirt club version, but in a different color, so if you missed that then here's your second chance.
- Journal ($18.00) - Sporting the Monarch logo and made out of recycled paper and stuff. You can write things in it and maybe pretend you're the Monarch!
- Venture Industries Laptop Sleeve ($28.00) - Hey you can stick your laptop in here and pretend you work for Venture Industries even though Dr. Venture can't afford to hire employees. Maybe Jonas Jr. also calls his company Venture Industries. He probably pays pretty well too.
- Zipper Pulls ($16.00) - I guess you can stick this on a zipper and make them instantly more awesome! Four skull-type logos of the Black Hearts, Sgt. Hatred, Dr. Killinger and the skull that appears in the 'o' in 'Bros.' You know the one!
