Episode 182: Valiant Delinquents

This week, we tackle some Valiant comics. Vince has been praising Archer and Armstrong for quite some time now, so he decided it was time for me to start reading it as well. He also tossed in some Quantum and Woody and The Delinquents for good measure. In our What We’re Reading segment, we touched on some great stuff from Nova, Magneto, and of course, Skull-Kickers. Enjoy.

Episode 177: TMNT

Episode 177: TMNT

This week, Vince and I tackle the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles… and a huge way, spanning three story-arcs (the last one still on-going). People need to understand that TMNT is currently one of the best series out there. I wouldn’t put it at the top of the list, but it is definitely in the top 10, in my opinion. What makes the series shine is the heartfelt family relationships, which have been put through the wringer as of late. We also cover some great… and not so great, comics in What We’re Reading. Enjoy.

Episode 174: Original Sin

Episode 174: Original Sin

This week, Vince and I tackle the first half of the Original Sin event. As becomes apparent immediately, I am not a fan, although Vince is enjoying it. I’m going to guess that a number of folks probably think it’s fantastic, however for it, it feels forced… in nearly every single way. Let us know what you think of the event so far. We also covered some very exciting comics in What We’re Reading, and I finally broke the DC ban by discussing Injustice and Batman Beyond. Because, well, they’re friggin’ awesome. Lastly, The Endling is written by Jonathan Larsen. Thrillbent, please tweak your iOS app some more to improve the user interface and customer experience. I love ya, but you still have some quirks that need smoothing out.

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. Lots of extras in What We’re Reading also, so plenty to enjoy.

Episode 155: Star Brand

Episode 155: Star Brand

Start up the time machine, cause we’re going back to the decade of big hair, bad music and even worse comics: the ’80s. For this episode, Vince and I tackle the New Universe… and more specifically, Star Brand. It was a fun episode to record, but I cannot in good conscious recommend you read these comics. Just listen and you’ll see why. Enjoy.

Episode 143: Samurai Zub

This week, Vince and I are joined by Jim Zub once again. We’ve often spoken about our love of Skullkickers, however Zub is bringing something new out that we’re even more excited about: Samurai Jack. This was a fantastic interview, which we’re certain you’ll all enjoy. Keep listening to future episodes, because we should be getting our signed copies of Samurai Jack soon, and those bad boys’ll be given away to some lucky listeners. Enjoy.

Episode 141: Reign

Episode 141: Reign

This week, Vince and I tackle an older Spider-Man series. Opinions on this series appear to be on either side of the fence, with very few people ambivalent about it; folks either really love it or despise. As it would happen, both Vince and I thought it was brilliant on so many levels. Let us know what you thought about the series in the comments. Also, we discuss some X-Men, Thor, Carnage and Batman Beyond. Enjoy.

Episode 140: The Sword

Episode 140: The Sword

This week, Vince and I cover a listener-submitted series: The Sword from Image. The series ran for 24 issues, almost entirely created by the Luna brothers (Joshua and Jonathan). I got through all 24 issues, while Vince made it through half the series. We don’t spoil everything that happens in the series, however we do give our honest thoughts on the work, which has its ups and downs. We also cover a lot of titles in our What We’re Reading segment. Lots of good stuff. Enjoy.

Episode 138: Trinity of Stupidity

Episode 138: Trinity of Stupidity

This week, Vince and I tackle the Trinity War. Overall, there were a lot of disappointments with but a few moments of enjoyment. We both went in with fairly low expectations, and not surprisingly, were still disappointed. Far too much of the event felt forced and it seemed like whenever they needed a solution to some problem, they just pulled something out of thin air without any lead-up to it. Let us know what you thought of the event.

Episode 133: It’s always bite me play time

Episode 133: It’s always bite me play time

This week, Vince and I tackle a bunch of new creator-owned #1s. While it was still hit or miss, it’s always nice to get more creator-owned work. For this episode, we tackle The Wake, Lazarus, Ghosted and Sheltered. We also tackled a lot of various titles in our What We’re Reading segment, making up for lost time last episode. Enjoy. Oh, and I apologize for the quality (or lack therein) of my track. I’d moved my mixer over the weekend, and apparently I’d accidentally caught one of the knobs with a cable, as it was turned nearly off, removing most of the higher frequency. /shrug… never claimed to be a genius Discussion The Wake #1 Lazarus #1 Ghosted #1 Sheltered #1 What We’re Reading Vince: X-Factor, Wolverine, Superman/Batman, Injustice Roger: Ultimate Comics Spiderman, Superior Spiderman, Savage Wolverine, Wolverine; Japan’s Most Wanted, Batman Beyond (a bit) New Releases Marvel: Captain Marvel #14 FF #10 Guardians of the Galaxy #5 Indestructible Hulk #11 Ultimates #28 Uncanny X-Force #9 Uncanny X-Men #9 Venom #38 What If?
