Episode 204: A Bit Delayed, But Still Relevant

Hey there, 2021 people! Miss us? Well, we certainly missed you. So much so in fact, that we packed as much conversation into this episode as we could fit. This includes HBO Max and all the movies heading to it, Mandalorian Season Two and the state of Star Wars, Batman/Catwoman #1, Batman: Three Jokers, the approaching Zack Snyder’s Justice League, Star Trek: Discovery, some further thoughts on both the movie and TV versions of Watchmen, Marvel Snapshots: Cyclops, and a whole lot more. Expect some spoilers, and tons of comradery.

Comic Timing – Episode 177: Deadpool Review

It’s time to make the chimichangas! Brent and Ian are joined by longtime friend of the show, and Supershow Episode veteran, Steve Katz, as they review the Rated R Superstar, Deadpool! Get ready for a pretty even-handed review of the film, as not everybody was completely thrilled with it. But some were! Two distinct opinions within with civil conversation throughout. Madness, right? Anywho, of course there’s madness! It’s Deadpool! And oh, spoilers, because duh. Then, the episode concludes with some quick talk about DC’s upcoming Rebirth.

Comic Timing – Episode 176: A Raging Review of 2015

ant-man-1435327553

Just like that, 2015 has shrunk in between the atoms, never to be seen again! In its place stands 2016, which also happens to be the 10th year of Comic Timing. And what better way to start off this milestone year than with two of Brent and Ian’s mos regular guests: Sean Whelan and Jim Segulin of the Raging Bullets podcast! The crew of four go over Secret Wars and Convergence, some of their favorite comics and comic related media of this past year, and some things that are older than that but were discovered in 2015. There’s also a decent amount of Star Wars talk to be had, including everyone’s (except for Jim who hasn’t seen it yet) overall impressions of Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens. Plus, random segues into talking about meatloaf the food, Meatloaf the singer, and Fuller House. And, shock of shocks, we mention Fant4stic. It’s a grand old time, I tells ya! WHATISH!
