Episode 235: NYCC 2015

This weekend was NYCC, and we got some news on what’s coming up for the big two, Image, Dark Horse and more. You’ll notice almost immediately that I didn’t hold back when asked what I thought about different things. There’s just so much crap that you have to swim through in order to get to the nuggets of information that are genuinely exciting. Of course, we respect that everyone’s got their own opinions on what’s in store for us. What did you think about this year’s announcements and reveals?

Episode 234: YOU’RE NOT BATMAN!

Episode 234: YOU’RE NOT BATMAN!

This week, Vince figured we’d try something different. He’d wanted us to read and discuss Astro City for a while. His heart was in the right place. I tapped out partway through the first issue, however Vince covered the first 6 issues. He didn’t have much to contribute during our What We’re Reading, so I discussed a few projects I found interesting this week. Including this Star Wars webcomic (link as promised). Enjoy.

Episode 233: Abominamabubble

Episode 233: Abominamabubble

This week, Vince takes us back to the internets for a fantastic web comic by Karl Kerschl. The Abominable Charles Christopher is a rare web comic that should be experienced by anyone who has an appreciation of multi-layered storytelling that at odds makes you laugh and crushes your soul… often at the same time. As for what we’re reading, we talked Weirdworld, Gotham by Midnight, Injustice and spiders! Enjoy.

Episode 232: Cause Vince Loves Y’all

Episode 232: Cause Vince Loves Y’all

This week, Vince pays me back for having made him watch Fantastic Four. Sure, he says his choice for this week’s discussion was random, but we know better. Oh, we know. Still, we covered some awesome stuff in What We’re Reading, from Sex Criminals to Little Marvels and Star Trek. Enjoy.

Episode 231: Movie Night

Episode 231: Movie Night

This week, I decided to subject Vince to something horrible… as a way of showing that I care. The horrible thing in question wasn’t a comic book, but rather a comic book movie. You know where I’m going with this. So in this episode, Vince and I consume a few drinks and tear down Fantastic Four. But don’t worry, we also discuss some awesome comics in our What We’re Reading segment. Enjoy. Discussion Fantastic Four (movie) What We’re Reading Vince: Siege, Thors, Groot, Wicked and the Divine Roger: Civil War, Injustice, Batman, Batman Beyond, Darth Vader New Releases Marvel: Agent Carter S.H.I.E.L.D. 50th Anniversary #1 All-New Hawkeye #5 Armor Wars #5 Captain America White #1 (Of 5) Secret Wars 2099 #1 Secret Wars Journal #5 (Of 5) Spider-Island #4 (Of 5) Spider-Verse #5 Star Wars #9 Star Wars Lando #4 (Of 5) True Believers She-Hulk #1 True Believers Thor #1 DC: Batman Arkham Knight Genesis #2 (Of 6) Constantine The Hellblazer #4 Injustice Gods Among Us Year Four #10 Wonder Woman #44 Image: Invincible #123 Rat Queens #12 Sex Criminals #12 Tokyo Ghost #1 Other: Groo Friends And Foes #9 (Dark Horse) Paybacks #1 (Dark Horse) iTunes | RSS feed If you enjoy the show, please make certain to stop by iTunes and leave us a review!...

Episode 230: With MARTY!

Episode 230: With MARTY!

This week, with Vince out of town, I put the call out for a replacement vict- I mean, volunteer, and Marty from All Comics Considered bravely stepped up to the plate. I have been praising Marty’s work on his podcast for a while, and his last episode (18) was especially fantastic, covering topics which we need to be discussing more often, such as respect and representation for a variety of groups. For this episode, we did a grab-bag, going back and forth. I’m afraid I wasn’t able to stop him from discussing Daredevil. Enjoy.

Episode 229: How low can you go?

Episode 229: How low can you go?

This week, Vince suggested I read a series that he’s been quite excited about for a while: Low. It’s written by a favorite or ours, so it would stand to reason that I’d like it. While I did enjoy it, quite a bit at times, there were still a few things that irked me from time to time. Let us know if you agree. As for what we’re reading, we cover everything from Marvel Zombies to Injustice (which is STILL one of the best things DC is currently putting out). Enjoy.

Episode 228: Tommy Lee Osborn

Episode 228: Tommy Lee Osborn

Last week, Vince talked about his love of the Iron Goblin; so he decided this week, we should cover the inspiration for it. Dark Avengers sees Norman Osborn leading a new Avengers team, whose roster is full of his villain pals. Also discussed this week, Rat Queens, A-Force, Injustice and lots more. Enjoy. Discussion Dark Avengers #1-6 (2009) What We’re Reading Vince: Rat Queens, A-Force, Master of Kung Fu Roger: Injustice, Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows, Silk, Spider-Verse, Star Wars New Release Marvel: Captain Marvel and the Carol Corps #3 Hank Johnson: Agent of Hydra #1 Magneto #21 Marvel Zombies #3 Old Man Logan #4 Star Wars: Lando #3 DC: Batgirl #43 Gotham by Midnight #8 Justice League 3001 #3 We are Robin #3 Image: East of West #20 Low #9 IDW: Ghostbusters Get Real #3 Godzilla in Hell #2 Ragnarok #6 Sherlock Holmes: The Seven Per-Cent Solution #1 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Casey and April #3 iTunes | RSS feed If you enjoy the show, please make certain to stop by iTunes and leave us a review!...

Episode 227: D&D

Episode 227: D&D

As a way of apologizing for last week, Vince actually suggested a GOOD comic book this week. Humble Bundle has a fantastic D&D package available, and we tackled one of them. It was fantastic. Also discussed this week, Batman, Lando, Gotham Academy, Spidey and… Greg Land. Serious… ^&%$ that guy. Discussion Dungeons & Dragons: Shadowplague (2011) What We’re Reading Vince: Skullkickers, Batman, Star Wars: Lando Roger: Gotham Academy, Spider-Island, We Stand on Guard, Amazing Spider-Man, Future Imperfect New Releases Marvel: 1872 #2 Amazing Spider-Man: Renew your Vows #4 Armor Wars #4 Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders #2 Guardians of Knowhere #3 House of M #1 Inferno #4 Kanan #5 Runaways #3 Secret Wars Journal #4 Silk #6 Spider-Verse #4 Star Wars #8 Weirdworld #3 DC: Black Canary #3 Dr. Fate #3 Green Lantern: The Lost Army #3 Justice League #43 Martian Manhunter #3 Superman/Wonder Woman #20 Image: Invincible #122 Manifest Destiny #16 Postal #6 Rat Queens #11 Archie: Archie #2 BOOM!: Welcome Back #1 IDW: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #49 Valiant: Book of Death #2 iTunes | RSS feed If you enjoy the show, please make certain to stop by iTunes and leave us a review!...

Episode 226:  The Circle Chase

Episode 226: The Circle Chase

Part of me wonders why Vince doesn’t make me read more bad comics, because these are some of our funnest episodes. That said, there’s something to be said for me not wanting to strangle my co-host. Vince decided to make read an old Deadpool mini-series from the ’90s. We both agreed it was horrible. Beyond horrible. That said, we did manage to cover a lot of excellent comics in our What We’re Reading segment. Enjoy. Discussion Deadpool: The Circle Chase (1993) What We’re Reading Vince: Ms. Marvel, Infinity Gauntlet, The Wicked + The Divine, The Spire Roger: Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows, Batman Beyond, Civil War, Giant-Size Little AvsX, Groot, Battleworld: Ultimate End New Releases Marvel: A-Force #3 Amazing Spider-Man #20.1 Ghost Racers #3 Master of Kung Fu #4 Planet Hulk #4 Secret Wars #5 Secret Wars 2099 #4 Secret Wars: Battleworld #4 Star Wars: Lando #2 DC: Action Comics #43 Batman #43 Batman/Superman #23 Constantine the Hellblazer #3 Gotham Academy #9 Image: Descender #6 the Fade Out #8 Injection #4 ODY-C #6 Phonogram: The Immaterial Girl #1 The Walking Dead #145 Avatar: Mercury Heat #2 Uber #27 IDW: Star Trek/Green Lantern #2 X-Files: Season 11 #1 Valiant: Bloodshot Reborn #5 Unity #21 iTunes | RSS feed If you enjoy the show, please make certain to stop by iTunes and leave us a review!...
