Leave a comment

Gold Team, unite! It has been way too long since Ian, Chris Eberle, Shane and Murd got together for a loosey goosey, catch-up comics conversation, so we bring that to you this very episode. Highlights include Shane being all the closer to completing his full Justice League run and some general conversation on complete runs the others own. Chris talks Jason Aaron’s Namor series, Mark Waid’s Batman and Robin: Year One as well as his upcoming New History of the DC Universe, the new GI Joe series from Image/Skybound, Black Canary: Best of the Best, a reread of Brubaker and Phillips’ Criminal, and Roy Thomas’ return to Savage Sword of Conan. Murd goes retro, as he tends to do, and brings forth Sandman Mystery Theater Compendium One by Matt Wagner and Steven T. Seagle and The Complete Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, plus something much more modern in Jonesy out of Boom Studios. Ian brings media to the table as he reviews The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie, as well as the complete first season of Batman: Caped Crusader, and Season Five of Harley Quinn; plus a dalliance into theater with BOOP! The Musical. Then Shane finished us out with some toy talk, and thoughts on Mark Waid’s Justice League Unlimited, The Atom Project, whether we actually needed a Hush 2 and The Question: All Along the Watchtower, and we mention the passing of Val Kilmer and what his works meant to us. And more!
