Panel by Panel Episode 21

Welcome to Panel by Panel!

Episode 21. It's our 2012 year and review show. So I picked one of my favorite pics of the year, from the X-Men vs Avengers kerfuffle issue #1. We talk our favorites and worst books of the year.

We're joined by Special Guest Thunder.

Marvel-ous Reviews

Since we are on break for Thanksgiving, we here at Panel by Panel (Just me mostly) will be doing something a little special. Welcome to Marvel-ous Reviews.

Marvel gets very little love on our podcast. We admit that. Most of this comes from that: Dan is an avid Batman fan, James got into comics with the new 52, and Garrett is...well Garrett is just Garrett. So for our Thanksgiving away, let's look at a few of the Marvel Books that came out on 11/21/2012. These are quick reviews, lacking any spoilers, and a quick rating for each.

Panel by Panel Episode 20

Welcome to Panel by Panel!

Episode 20. Dan rejoins us and we discuss Death of the Family. As well as other stories, including Thor and Phantom Stranger. As well as Previews and their Spoilers.

Late Episode 19

First off, I'd like to thank our loyal listeners for waiting despite the delay. Halloween has us behind here, and technical gremlins never help.

Dan couldn't join us this week, so it's just Garrett and James. Marvel is discussed, and talking about some of our favorite stories. Tune in next time for the Hallow's eve special where we talk about our favorite horror stories. We're still accepting feed back for that.

Amazing Reads: Amazing Spider-Man #8

Aw, welcome to Amazing Spider-Man #8. Pointlessness of pointlessness. Pete's plans of world domination come to fruition as he and Flash get in a boxing match. Also, a robot menace.

Also a back up starring Johnny Storm. Need I explain more?

Why do we need a tribute to teenagers?

Pulls 08/22/2012

Another week comes, another week goes, and we have a new stack of pretty pictures and words. This fourth week is quickly becoming that hodgepodge of left overs week. Weeks one and two are primarily the Dark and Vertigo books. Week three gets to be the Green Lantern week. And this week we get my regulars of Justice League Dark, All-Star Western, and New Guardians.

There is some Spider-Man involved, but issue 692 is going to get a special, since it gets to be the uber expensive 50th anniversary issue.

Oh, and the final issue of Deadpool Kills the Universe. Bloody hell.

And remember, spoiler free zone. Well, except for the rant at the end, I just don't care anymore about keeping that one clean.

Amazing Reads: 2 for .1 Special

Aw, Marvel. How much you want to drive every penny I may or may not have into your pocket. It's anniversary Time. See, not only is it Spidey's 50th year since Amazing #15. It's the one month anniversary for Amazing Reads (Hey, I'm trying here.) So For this month, Marvel is deciding to give us a bunch of point 1s, and point 2s...I don't know, lets just roll with it. Let's look into the first part of their Annivesary Special, The "relaunch" of Peter Parker Spider-Man and The Sensational Spider-Man.

Amazing Reads: Strange Tales Annual #2

Welcome to the first non Spider-Man title for this series. Well, unless you count the Daredevil one, but I don't really because that was before I figured on just doing separate reviews for modern comics. Back to topic though. Spider-Man and the Human Torch. My favorite, and least favorite Marvel characters...yay...This is going to be a long one, I can tell.

Don't worry, not 72 pages for this reading.

Modern Reviews: Hawkeye #1

Well, I have been treated to something spectacular this weekend. I found this comic. Hawkeye has had many series in the past, most were limited, or team books. We shall see if you last longer. But let's dive into Hawkeye #1.

Never have I felt purple looked more manly.

Amazing Reads: Daredevil Volume 3 #16

Alright, so we get to the other reason behind Amazing Reads. Discussing the latest comics that I really like that I don't get to on the podcast. I believe I said this would be for the Spider-Man books, but the other Marvel book I grab is Daredevil. Now you may ask why I'm not doing Amazing Spider-Man 690, or Avenging Spider-Man #10. Or even Peter Parker Spider-Man 156.1. The first two is easy, I haven't read them yet. Peter Parker I just realized came out, so...don't have that one yet. 

But today we talk about Mark Waid's Daredevil. And for those who haven't read anything I've done thus far, this will be spoiler heavy. I would suggest right now you go and get this book. Read it. It's a weird jumping on point, since it's the conclusion to an arc, but it provides the backstory to Matt's Character early on, and...well, it's damn fine reading.

I love the foreboding of this cover.

Panel by Panel Episode 13

So this week we talk about Marvel Movies.
Also we discuss Batman Earth One. Atomic Robo. Resurrection Man. Spider-Men. Batman and Robin.

Joined by Special guest David.

Enjoy.

Amazing Reads: Amazing Spider-Man #1

Alright, so we dive into the second outing of this strange experiment that will ultimately end in my complete and total break down. At least I'm already half way there.

Hello again dear readers, James here for a second edition of Amazing Reads. This time it's Amazing Spider-Man #1. You remember that one don't you, it has stuff, and stuff happens. Okay, so it's not important in the grand scheme of things, it isn't his origin and he doesn't do anything spectacular (I hate myself sometimes) but it is the first of his solo run, and his second appearance.

Yes, caption, your cover already implied that.

Panel by Panel Special #1

Pull List: May 9 2012

So I haven't done this in a few weeks, partly because I've had a whole bunch of things on my mind, and partly because our newest host gets comics at a different time than I and Dan do, and I felt odd not getting him involved.
This week, I've decided to screw that. You may also note this is up early. I know what I'm getting, I know what Dan is getting. And I will make shit up for Garrett. If anything really cool comes out, I'll make an addendum.
The red highlight is what we got that was not apart of this original list. I apologize to Demon Knights. Not to the tie ins.

Free Comic Book Day

Free Comic Book Day: One Day Late

If you are curious...I'm just bored today. So this is the last one, I promise. Just...a visual difference in the two big comic book companies and what they are trying to get us to buy their books.

Marvel

DC

I feel the art speaks for itself. Two companies trying to sell you their product by giving free samples. Me thinks one of these books needs to get better art, to convince me to buy more of their product.
