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 207: The All-New Uncanny Daily Globe

Episode 207: The All-New Uncanny Daily Globe

This week, Vince decided we needed to discuss Daredevil again… and I’m kinda glad he did. We discussed Bendis’ Out story-arc, and both of us agreed that it is absolutely fantastic. Also discussed this week, Thor, and as I said during the podcast, mark your calendars, because this was the day I defended Thor against Vince. Tons of other comics during What We’re Reading. And now that Vince has pointed it out, I’m beginning to see a pattern in the number of entries I have every week. Perhaps I’ll have to start limiting my comics. 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 192: Wayward

Episode 192: Wayward

This week, Vince decided we should cover Rocket Raccoon. But then he didn’t read Rocket Raccoon. So he decided we should cover something he had read: Wayward. Truth be told, I can’t get mad at him, as I loved Wayward and was looking forward to discussing it. Also this week, a bunch of new Marvel #1s, some more death of Wolvie, Spider-Verse and more. Enjoy.

Episode 191: Spiders and Magic Critters

Episode 191: Spiders and Magic Critters

This week, we’ve got spiders and magic critters; and we loved all of them. The spiders come courtesy of Spider-Verse, which has finally started. The lead-up has been spectacular (pun intended), so what did we think of the launch? The answer to that’s probably obvious. We also tackled the first issue of Tooth & Claw, a brilliantly written and illustrated new series from Image. Plus lots more in our What We’re Reading segment. Enjoy.

Episode 190: Constantine

Episode 190: Constantine

This week, I make life easy for Vince and choose a subject that is near and dear to his heart: Constantine. Having watched the TV premiere, I decided I would do a little research for comparison’s sake. Also discussed this week, Marvel movies, other DC TV series, Deadpool, Wolvie, Borderlands, Axis, X-men and more. Enjoy.

Episode 187: Time’s Running Out

Episode 187: Time’s Running Out

This week, Vince decided to force a bunch of either nonsensical or bad comics on me. With the Avengers’ “Time Runs Out” event shifting gears, he figured it would make a good jumping on point for someone like me who hasn’t been keeping up with it. Turns out, as usual, that he was wrong. And of course, given the opportunity, he tried to get me to read Thor. Interesting discussion in the What We’re Reading segment, as we also covered a lot of the new comic book shows on television. Enjoy listening to the duck that got loose in my recording office when we started discussing Gotham.
