Comic Timing Episode 287 – Two At Start, Four At Finish

Leave a comment

You get a little bit of everything this episode, all the way down to who is on it! Ian and Brent start out old school as a duo, touching on the trailer for the new Batman: Knightfall animated movie and how the 90s keeps on coming back as strong as ever. They then switch over to the ever-increasing cost of conventions right as Brandon joins in on the conversation, My Adventures with Superman Season Three and need for a “Previously,on…”, and then go into how the heck Marvel can continue to have Magneto be a Holocaust survivor in the year 2026 and beyond, and some discussion on the size of Omnibuses (and this one kid who will soon steal all our podcasting jobs). Finally, Kris joins us for her spoiler-free thoughts on the new Supergirl movie, which we will give our full spoiler-filled review on our next episode, which also is our 20th Anniversary Live Zoom, which will take place on July 1st at 7:30pm ET (doors open at 7pm ET)! We then end with some recent reads, including Ian finally tackling Batman: Dark Patterns and Ice Cream Man, Brandon going through Dungeon Crawler Carl, Kris returns to Powers (both the comic AND the show), Brent tells off to get off his lawn about audiobooks versus books, somehow we mention smut, and more! And earmuffs, it’s a Blue Team episode so there be cussin’.

Comic Timing Episode 253 – June 2025 Previews

Leave a comment

As June comes to a close, so does the end of an era. The June 2025 catalog marks the final physical copy of Diamond’s Previews catalog. While the format of the media may change, the format of this episode will not, as we’ll be pivoting to individual publisher catalogs and mostly Lunar for the foreseeable feature, checking in occasionally with Diamond as well. As such, Ian, Murd and Raph tackle the Image, Dark Horse, Boom, DC Connect, Marvel Previews, IDW, Diamond and Lunar catalogs here, with books mainly set for August 2025 release. Highlights include a Rick Remender and Daniel Acuña’s anthropomorphic war story Escape, a new collection of Giffen and DeMatteis’ Hero Squared at Boom, W. Maxwell Prince, Martín Morazzo and Chris O’Halloran from Ice Cream Man bring their odd horror sensibilities to DC with Superman: The Kryptonite Spectrum, Kyle Higgins goes full manga with his Elseworlds Immortal Legend Batman, G. Willow Wilson takes on Black Cat at Marvel, Jason Aaron returns to Duckburg with Scrooge – Earth’s Mightiest Duck, Christopher Priest launches his own reboot of Red Sonja with Sonja: Reborn, a comic book continuation of Star Trek: Voyager at IDW, a new superhero universe at Aspen, and tons more. NOTE: Items mentioned in the Diamond Previews are not guaranteed to come out as advertised; you can reference books also listed in Lunar’s catalog, and others (like most Dynamite books) will see the light of day in the coming months.
