Another week, another screw up

It seems to be how things work here, we can't seem to get a podcast out every week like we would like. So here is just a quick look at what we pulled, and some brief thoughts. Remember, spoilers as always.


All-Star Western:
Arkham is the best addition to this book. He spends most of the opening getting high on opiates and getting hookers. When caught, he claims in the name of medicine. Jonah while this goes on, gets in fights, joins a cause, and is betrayed by that cause. Of course, he was going to betray that cause in the first place, but that is neither here nor there.


Green Lantern: New Guardians:
Arkillo finds out what happens to the Sinestro Corps. We find out how we'll keep a yellow lantern in this book. Nothing much else, sadly.

Justice League Dark/I Vampire:
Both of these bad boys together. They are a continuing story of the rise of Cain, and it's pretty badass. I don't want to give to much away, because I recommend these books over most others, but be assure, Constantine is a prick, and we love him for it. Andrew Bennet will rise again, and he will be awesome. Otherwise, pick up these books.

Daredevil:
While Dan has his new Marvel favorite in Scarlet Spider, mine is Daredevil. I picked up the first issue of Mark Waid's run on the book and loved it instantly, and dug around for the past month finding all the back issues. I can't recommend this series enough. But this issue is the conclusion to the Omega Effect, a story that spanned Avenging Spider-Man, and the Punisher. It's a good conclusion to the story, and I would advice people to get the other books. I've also gotten interested in the Punisher, so I will get back to you next month on whether that's any good.

I know Dan probably has more he'd like to talk about, so I'll see what he wants to say, and this will be that place holder for whatever he has.

Event Fever:
Avengers vs. X-Men. Yay. This event so far is a mixed bag for me. The premise is a little lame, Scott's an ass and a half, and Wolverine is all emo whiny bitch. But this week is tie-in week, and so we look at those. Most are barely tie-ins. And I'll be honest, I haven't read Secret Avengers yet, and that is a legit Tie-in. Uncanny X-Men was alright, but having not read X-Men in so long, Juggernaut Colossus is just weird. So we will talk about what is my favorite book of the series so far. A vs X. The fight book.
For those who don't know, there is a fight book. a once a month bare knuckle brawl fight book. And it's stupid. Soooo stupid it's hilarious. Of course one should remember that these fight books aren't technically in continuity with the regular book, and if you look at both fights provided, Magneto vs. Ironman, and The Thing vs Namor, you will see they don't quite match up to the regular event book.
But the opening text of the book basically goes, screw continuity, this is for fun. And boy is it fun.

Pick of the week.
James: It's so hard to choose. even the books I didn't talk about were fun. But if I'll be honest, I will probably get more enjoyment out of the sheer stupidity of A vs. X then most of these other books, so if you want just a constant laugh at bad, get that book.

Requests for a Pardon

Due to technical difficulties, that lay at the blame of me, James, have occurred so a re-record is necessary, and unsure if we can gather everyone together for the record. Or we may do a special in it's place. Please be patient.

Real Life

Sorry, real life has gotten in the way again, so there will be a delay in this week's podcast. I'm putting together something a little fun and stupid, so it'll be a short one while Dan is out of town.

Hate to say it, but no podcast this week. After several tries at recording, nothing useful came out.
