Wait, What?

It's the conclusion to Episode 22, and Graeme McMillan and Jeff Lester talk about nearly everything--Fear Itself, Green Lantern, our comic picks for 2012, John Byrne and Doc Doom, Darren Aronofsky and Black Swan, Aaron Sorkin and Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip--in short, a little bit of something for everyone. Actually, considering this episode is an hour and forty-two minutes, it may qualify as having a lot for everyone. Let's just say if you wanted a podcast where the term "White Power Odin" was thrown around and a debate breaks out about the history of Man-Wolf, this may be the podcast for you. We hope you enjoy, happy new year, and thanks for listening!

After that, we move on to discuss more traditional topics--the Walking Dead TV show, digital comics generally and the Marvel Vault in particular, and recent promotions at DC comics.

In our ultra-long finale for for Episode 18, Graeme McMillan and I go all insider-basebally and talk about who our dream picks would be for the Editor-In-Chief positions for both Marvel and DC.

We hope you enjoy it, and thanks for listening!

In our third installment and final for  Episode 17, it's the Superman vs. Muhammad Ali of comic podcasts as Graeme McMillan and Jeff Lester go head-to-head on The Return of Bruce Wayne #6 and Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder #16. No quarter is asked and none is given in this epic hour-long thrashing out of the particulars. And of course, by the time this is mixed and posted it, yet another Grant Morrison Batman comic will appeared, threatening to keep the cycle running in perpetuity.... We hope you enjoy it, and thanks for listening!

In our second installment for  Episode 17, Graeme McMillan and I give you the comprehensive discussion of J. Michael Straczynski's departure from writing Superman and Wonder Woman--a discussion so comprehensive it consists mainly of old storylines from New Guardians and Justice League Detroit. Comic books about making kites, Loeb and Finch's Ultimatum, and Nick O'Teen also figure in to our cutting-edge news analysis.  Somehow. We hope you enjoy it, and thanks for listening!

Our first installment of Episode 17 goes gloriously awry in just about every way as Graeme McMillan and Jeff Lester sit down with a checklist of topics to talk about, and proceed to discuss none of them.  We do, however, talk about Netflix Watch Instantly, Zardoz, Iron Man 2, the new footage of Ryan Reynolds as Green Lantern and--unfortunately for perhaps all involved--cartoonists "what are sexy" and cartoonists "what are not." It's as sexy as we're going to get until the day, somewhere far in the future, when Graeme agrees to breaks out his Tom Jones impression. We hope you enjoy it, and thanks for listening!

It's Episode 16, and Graeme McMillan and Jeff Lester have close to ninety minutes of nonstop gabbity-gab for your listening pleasure--on british comics character badass Judge Dredd, Brooklyn-based comics blogger badass Tucker Stone, and American comic book writer rockstar, Matt Fraction.
