Episode 256: I just keep going back to Batman kicking a sunflower

This week, Vince and I discuss DC’s upcoming Rebirth event. DC broadcast a conference focusing on Rebirth, giving us some details regarding series, creative teams and the likes. We still have a lot of questions, however there were a few details which gave us something to look forward to. We also tackle the conclusion of Snyder’s massive Batman story-arc involving one of our least favourite villains ever. And in our What We’re Reading segment, Vince gives his thoughts on Batman v Superman, Ultimates and Angela, and I tackle Star Wars, Tomb Raider and my favourite Spider-Man comic book at the moment, Web Warriors. Enjoy. Referenced: CBI v ACC Civil War Event Stay tuned for more details as we ramp up to our own Civil War event!

Episode 251: Rebirthing Reboots

This week, Vince and I tackle DC’s “Rebirth”, coming soon to rebooted comic books near you. We also cover Old Man Logan, which continues being one of, if not the best thing to come out of Secret Wars, as well as Power Man and Iron Fist, Spiderman, Deadpool, Sex Criminals, Star Wars, I Hate Fairyland and lots more. The episode ran a little long this week, but we’re not apologizing. Cause it was fun. Let us know what you thought of the Deadpool movie, and if you agree with me.

Episode 248: Last Stand of the Wreckers

Episode 248: Last Stand of the Wreckers

This week, Vince tried to make me read Transformers comics… so I read Star Wars and Batman instead. In my defence, I tried to read this week’s discussion comics, but I found it very difficult to do so – as mentioned at the start of the episode. If you’ve read these, let us know what you thought.

Episode 243: Of Bats and Turtles

Episode 243: Of Bats and Turtles

This week, Vince lined up a few DC titles, as well as an epic cross-over. While we didn’t care all that much about Batman and Lex’s Darkseid one-shot, the fact is, that Batman/TMNT cross-over was absolutely fantastic. Except for that Batmobile design. Yeah, someone should get fired for that. PS. Sorry for my voice this week. I’ve been fighting a bad cold for a week now and it’s taken its toll on my voice.

Episode 242: Read Monstress

This week, Vince and I tackle some new number ones: Monstress, Jacked, and Klaus. As you can tell from our episode title, both of us thought very highly of one of these. In our What We’re Reading segment, Vince actually got me interested in reading a Transformers story-arc. Which is saying a lot. I also give me thoughts on what may be my favourite issue of the year.

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

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.

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.

Episode 218: Either give it to me now, or not at all

This week, Vince decided we should talk about some new DC shenanigans. Well, some new and some old shenanigans. Green Lantern and Justice League each have their own version of Hal Jordan. As discussed during the podcast, it’s going to get a little confusing moving forward, for both of the big two. We tackled a bunch of Secret Wars in our What We’re Reading segment, as well as Han’s big surprise, Postal, Saga, The Wicked and the Divine and lots more. Enjoy.
