VCP: Schaffer the Darklord

In this spooky October episode of the Vorpal Chainsword Podcast we barely survive an encounter with the hiphop Supervillain:


Schaffer T. Darklord is the shadowy antihero of Nerdcore who's eventual conquest of New York City is all but assured. Regardless of whether he's dropping dark rhymes about massive font battles to the death, revealing his unsettling fascination with exsanguination, or just engaging in everyday Supervillainy, STD leaves no survivors in his wake. Between raps, Schaffer hosts and performs at touring Burlesque shows, particularly those themed to David Lynch films or other nerdy but titillating subject matter.  He also co-hosts and produces the Epic Piecast, a hilarious monthly podcast featuring snarky commentary about Comic Books and general Pop Culture esotera. Recently, The Darklord emerged from his lair in NYC to tour dive bars and sci-fi conventions around the Midwest, in what has become known in shuddered whispers as the Heartland Horrorshow. Rumors also abound of an upcoming EP from STD: Sex Rhymes!
