Episode 209: Lotta D in that Cell Block

This week, we’re back with more Daredevil. Devil in Cell Block D is a fantastic prison suspense/drama. We get lots of great moments as events chip away at Matt’s calm demeanour, revealing the troubled soul beneath. I was far more critical of this story-arc than Vince, though part of that many be because we’ve read three “is he or isn’t he” Daredevil story-arcs this month. Still, it was a great story, and while not mandatory reading, it certainly does get a strong recommendation. Lost of Magic Mirrors to complain about in What We’re Reading; though also some great comics like Gotham by Midnight and New Avengers. Enjoy.

Episode 199: Now you know how it feels

This week, Vince and I discuss a recent favorite of his from Valiant, The Death-Defying Doctor Mirage. Truth is, I loved the series as well. It is very well written, with great characters and some original story elements. Not to mention awesome art. We also tackled Marvel’s Star Wars, Injustice in the hands of a new writer, X-Men, Spiders and Wolvies. Enjoy.

Episode 195: Welcome to Lovecraft

Episode 195: Welcome to Lovecraft

This week, I decided we should focus on some older comics again. We haven’t had a retro episode for a while. Granted, we didn’t go that far back… just to 2008 for the start of Locke and Key. We also started the show off with some movie chatter (TMNT and Captain America 2), as well as some love for DC’s announcement of movie poster inspired covers coming our way in March of ’15. Also, tons of comics in our What We’re Reading segment. Seriously. Tons. Enjoy.

Episode 194: Gotham, Arkham and Secret Six

Episode 194: Gotham, Arkham and Secret Six

This week, Vince decided on a few new DC titles. There are a couple new series to add to the ever-growing Bat family; one which we quite liked, and another which we’re keeping our eyes on. And then there’s Secret Six, a series we’d like to enjoy, but which we both felt was lacking. As for what we’re reading, we have some great comics to talk about, from Superior Foes of Spider-Man to Autumnlands, with a little X-Men in there as well. Enjoy.

Episode 176: Jonathan Larsen Interview

This week, we interview the writer of The Endling, Jonathan Larsen. It was a great chat, with lots of insight into what it takes to write a digital comic book. Please note, there are spoilers in this interview. Also, quite likely the most awesome “New Releases” segment ever. Enjoy.

Episode 172: All You Need Is Kill

This week, Vince and I discuss the manga which inspired the new movie ‘Edge of Tomorrow’. We both enjoyed the manga enormously, and found that it was a refreshing change from the typical folks in tights. We also had some interesting comics to discuss in our What We’re Reading segment.

Episode 169: Ultimate Reboot

Episode 169: Ultimate Reboot

This week, Vince and I discuss the rebooted Ultimates universe. Specifically, we tackle All-New Ultimates, Ultimate FF and Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man. As we’ve stated many, many times, Marvel really needs to work on their naming conventions, because this continues to border on utter stupidity. That said, we did enjoy several of these new series. We also discussed a lot of comics in What We’re Reading. I read a fantastic Shang-Chi issue which I honestly thought was brand new… which just goes to prove, any issue that you haven’t read is brand new. Being old and medicated doesn’t hurt this theory either. Enjoy.

Episode 166: Rat Queens

This week, Vince and I cover a new series from Image which has impressed the hell out of us: Rat Queens. We had nothing but positive things to say about the first story arc, so make sure to let us know what you think of it. We also discussed Thrillbent’s new subscription service (which we also love) and the new Image Humble Bundle. Great episode. Make sure to check it out.

Episode 162: Future Justice Leagues Are Awesome

This week, Vince and I discuss our favorite Justice League series, which both coincidentally exist outside of the current “established” cannon. Both take place in the future, and maybe because of that, and because of the freedom that writing outside of the current cannon presents, both series are absolutely fantastic. Enjoy the episode.

Episode 157: Revelations is Awesome!

This week, Vince makes me read more #1s, though in his defence, these were better than last week’s fare… particularly Revelations, which blew me away.
