This DVD set covers episodes 27 through 52 of the first season of the show. Lots of stand outs in these episodes. Like when Jack and Dal make a wind turbine so they can recharge batteries. Or when Salene develops bulimia and is almost forced into becoming hooker to get the food she wants. Then there is one scene that is sleazy,when Lex almost rapes the girl he claims to love. We also start finding out that the virus that killed off all the adults is still out there. Part of the Mallrats head out to a place that they think might have a cure for the virus. And by the time they get back to the mall they realize that Lex,who is 17,has caught the virus. So most of the episodes are about them trying to cure Lex. Plus I want to say it is this set that introduces us to Tai San. Who is a weird new ageish hippie type female.
The DVD is pretty good. All the episodes look great. Plus this set actually has an extra. Which is a 40 minute behind the scenes look at the first season. It is strange seeing lots of the cast without the wild makeup and hairdos. I really hope Shout Factory doesn't take long to put out the other 4 seasons. The Tribe Season 1 part 2 DVD gets a solid A.

HeroTV episode 2 with an interview with Rob Liefeld
Hero magazine was a short lived competitor to Wizard magazine. I remember hearing about how they were gonna get their own TV show. But as far as I know it never aired on TV. They did release at least 2 episodes on VHS. This is the second episode and has an interview with Rob Liefeld.
Sci FI Buzz episode with Clive Barker interview
Reel Wild Cinema Lunatics on the loose episode
I loved this short lived tv show. Each week Sandra Bernhart would show edited down versions of various sleazy films from Something Weird Video's amazing film library.
