Leave a comment

Episode 186 is here, bub. Ian and Brent have seen Logan, so the second half of the episode is devoted to that, with spoilers aplenty. But before we get to that, Ian, Brent and Brandon do what they do best: list stuff! The Hollywood Reporter put out their list of the Top 50 Best Superhero Performances Ever, and we think we can do better. But don’t worry, we only do a Top 15, so you don’t have to sit through fifty different choices.

Leave a comment

Applause! Comic Timing is back! With a bang, one would hope. This episode, Brent and Ian are joined by Raph, Brandon, and returning guest for the first time in forever, Chris Chavez, as we dissect the year that was. 2016 has come and gone, and we go into the best and worst of it when relating to comics. We also give our quickie review and thoughts on Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Raph also gives us his take on Doctor Strange, and Ian goes into the joy that is Justice League Action.

As you heard at the top of the episode, there is something that makes this particular episode special. This one was produced differently than any other Comic Timing has been so far. If you can guess what happened, you’ll win $10 on Comixology! Just post on the Facebook thread for this episode, and let us know what you guess happened.

Extra Point time! Kris and I go over the Marvel Studios: Assembling a Universe TV Special that aired this past Tuesday on ABC. We discuss how this special stood out from the typical promotional material included on DVDs and whatnot, what was revealed about Marvel Studios’ past and future, the strengths and shortcomings that come with having a team movies like The Avengers, meandering into old school X-Men crossovers, and more. A good solid thirty minutes of content! Oh, and here’s a direct link to the Guess Who? research video Kris brought up near the end of the show. Enjoy!
