Episode 34: Uncanny Batman Avengers


In this episode the boys return from their unplanned hiatus. They start out by talking about tons of NYCC and general comics news. From the Jim Lee/Scott Snyder Man of Steel comic to the upcoming Superior Spider-Man changes. They also argue about some stuff, as per usual. 

Then they review a mere two books! Batman 13 and Uncanny Avengers #1. It's a long, drawn-out debate about the quality of both books.

Paul's Picks! - September 19, 2012


Well, it's that time again folks: Wednesday! And you know what Wednesday is?... Well, of course you do, you're reading a blog about comics, so you obviously know it's New Comics Day, a.k.a. Paul's favorite weekly holiday! And now for his much-anticipated pick-of-the-week...



Hey guys! Sorry about the delay on this weeks Pick, I'm in the heat of classes, so I'm afraid there may be a few weeks throughout the semester when my column may slip back a day or two... But don't worry, I'll be certain to get a pick up every week, barring any excessive hindrances.

Throwing out my usual blurb leading into my pick of the week, lets just get right into comics, shall we? My absolute pick of the week (as spoiled by this weeks episode of the podcast) is...
