Listen to this episode

Let’s face it, summer is pretty much over, but there are still shows to go to and comic books to talk about. In this episode we hear about Star Wars Celebration V and Baltimore Comicon from the Duke. After that Dang and Duke talk about Star Wars: Legacy #50, Morning Glories #1, Marvel Universe vs The Punisher #1, Dungeons and Dragons #0, Amazing Spider-Man #640 and Ex Machina #50.

(FYI, this was our second episode recorded via Skype and we’re still working out the bugs. Apologies for the “canned” sound.)

Comic Book Pitt theme music is by Nik Furious. You can find more of Nik’s music on iTunes.

Episode 98
Better late than never folks, Due to a screwup by libsyn i was unable to post this on its normal day but here it is for you in all its bad audio quality. Recorded the first night in Charlotte back in June, this show returns the F bombcast to some of its racially charged roots. Not a whole lot of comics are discussed but movies are represented in earnest. Avatar gets the whole once over by Kev and Dave, is it Politically charged leftist garbage that just looks nice, or is it a fun Sci Fi flick that is pretty, i think you can figure out who said what. I really do not remember what else is discussed other than Teeth, a cozy little film about a vagina with teeth. Enjoy folks.

Get it on iTunes, Zune marketplace, or at http://www.fbombcast.com or this handy dandy player right here

Kurt Busiek, the great mediator, sets fire to the House of Hickman in Chronic News!  Meanwhile, Brevoort says that by this time next year, the Fantastic Four will be no more!  Also, a digital comic sells three million copies?  The digital revolution is in high gear, but is the Pocket God story a triumph or tragedy?

Fairly in depth coverage of Star Wars: Blood Ties and Morning Glories, and a riveting dissection of ankle vs. crew socks.  Tune in and find out why Monster Mike calls Chronic Insomnia “A show he sometimes listens to in the background while playing video games.”

Listen to our friends at Where Monsters Dwell and Comic Tube. We also have a riveting Blog and website you should check out if you’re cool. If not, check them out anyways, because we’re NOT cool. WLTAOY.

NOTE: This episode has been revised. After I discovered that only the first 30 seconds of the final edited episode had recorded (how this happened I don’t know) I re-recorded the episode and uploaded it.

The imaginary stories for this episode come from SUPERMAN 19, November / December 1942, published on September 4, 1942. The editor was Whitney Ellsworth. Jack Burnley drew the cover, which protrayed Superman carrying an automobile, without tires on its wheels, with a family aboard, running down the street. That’s road service, Superman style. This issue was reprinted in SUPERMAN ARCHIVES, vol. V.

Three of the issue’s four stories are featured:

CASE OF THE FUNNY PAPER CRIMES was written by Jerry Siegel, pencilled by John Sikela and inked by Ed Dobrotka. This story was also reprinted in SUPERMAN FROM THE THIRTIES TO THE EIGHTIES.

SUPERMAN’S AMAZING ADVENTURE, originally unnamed, but given a title for the Archive, was written by jerry Siegel and drawn by Leo Nowak. Since I don’t have a cupy of the SUPERMAN ARCHIVE, the plot for this story came from MIKE’S AMAZING WORLD OF DC COMICS at http://dcindexes.com.

SUPERMAN, MATINEE IDOL was written by Jerry Siegel, pencilled by Joe Shuster and inked by John Sikela. This story was also reprinted in SUPERMAN FROM THE THIRTIES TO THE EIGHTIES.

Next Episode: SHOWCASING LOIS LANE IN SHOWCASE 10!
