Comic Timing – Episode 75

Holy crap, 75 episodes of Comic Timing?!?! Madness I say, madness! To bathe in the madness and to celebrate the upcoming Presidential Election here in the United States that is coming up on Tuesday, Comic Timing releases an episode focusing on Politics in Comics. Chad Burdette, Jon Carroll, and Juan and Raph of Geeks Unite! fill in for a missing Brent Kossina (have you seen my missing co-host?) as we go over our favorite political story lines, where we feel DC and Marvel fall politically, The Obama and McCain one-shots, DC: Decisions and plenty more where that came from!

This is all part of the Comic Book Podcast Theme Month that took place in the month of October. While we are a few days removed from October, there are still a few podcasts coming out on the subject, so make sure to check out Comic Related, Superheroes-R-Us and Weekly Comic Book Review for more!

Comic Timing – Episode 73

Episode 73 lives! It has been a very busy couple of weeks for me, as work combined with looking for apartments, laptop failures and other life stuff slowed me down. Well here, have an episode to make you feel a bit better, k? This time, Umar from Dafixer’s Hideout returns along with Sean Cummings of codename: POWER join Brent and I to chat about the year up until now. Like last year, we return with our end of the summer awards! Plus, we delve into Sean’s San Diego Comic-Con experience. Three hours of comic goodness, all for you! I will try to put out as much content as I can over the next few weeks, as there might be another break coming because (cross your fingers) I’m moving in November!
