Episode 4: Femizonia

Episode 4: Femizonia

Matt and Cat do a quick shot comparison of a SUPERMAN comic book and a scene from the movie CHRONICLE. Did Max Landis read this comic and use the idea in his movie? Hmm, we wonder!!

Watch The Chronicle Baseball Test HERE!!!

 

Then we  jump to some quick thoughts about the latest in DC news of a Superhero being revealed as gay. (Since we recorded this DC has revealed the hero in question! What do you think??)

In our BLIND PULL we review Image’s Eisner Award Winning series CHEW, the first volume trade paperback TASTER’S CHOICE and then we introduce our rating system a 1-5 scale called the MYLAR METER.

In another new segment BACK ISSUE SPOTLIGHT we take a look at DC’s series SECRET ORIGINS and issue #17 (Aug ’86) starring ADAM STRANGE and DR. OCCULT.

To warp things up and get to the big debate of our day we pick apart a villainous plot in WORST VILLAIN SCHEME with the SUPERIA STRATEGEM in Captain America #387-392.

Are these ladies the best to breed for the future of the world?

And now that you know what’s in store go and listen to MATT AND CAT HAVE BACK ISSUES! Then go and read some comic books!!! Comic Books Kick Ass! KRAK-A-DOOM!!

Episode 2: We Love Free Comic Book Day!

Episode 2: We Love Free Comic Book Day! / Guillermo del Toro And The Otter Pops

Matt and Cat went on a Free Comic Book Day mission!

In Episode 2 we brought together our collected comics and rated our adventure to 6 comic book shops on Free Comic Book Day, from the Valley to Hollywood and back again we checked out: Earth 2, NE1/Blast Off Comics, Golden Apple, Meltdown, House of Secrets and Emerald Knights.

Guillermo del Toro met Frankenstein at Meltdown

For RELATED READING we review 2 of our Free Comics; Vertigo’s THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO and Archaia Entertainment’s MOUSEGUARD – A Free Comic Book Day Hardcover Anthology!

We get to serious comic book talk when we give a few comic book characters their own spotlight in UNSUNG HEROES. Matt raves about Marvel’s Diamondback and I, Cat, give some praise to the DC sidekick Skeets.

Mat Likes Diamondback

Cat Likes Skeets

The show is wrapped up with WORST VILLAIN SCHEMES as we each share a crackpot comic book scheme that is doomed to failure. The Justice League Europe face off against Sonar while the X-Men battle some big bugs and the super-villain The Locust.

Now it’s time to wrap it up and let you listen! Enjoy and keep on rockin’ along with us, we’re still jamming to Meat Loaf’s song A TIME FOR HEROES and now you can too, with a little SMALLVILLE mash up! Yup!

A Time For Heroes – SMALLVILLE

KRAK-A-DOOM!!
