Episode 109: My Last Kotei?

I lack energy this week and my voice is gone because of the San Jose kotei. As much fun as I had, it may be my last one. I talk about it and me taking a break from the collectible card game, Legend of the Five Rings.

I go over some old school Vertigo by covering Shade, the Changing Man: The American Scream (Peter Milligan, Chris Bachalo, Mark Pennington) without me screaming. It’s not as outdated as I thought it’d be, but it’s way more trippier than I thought it’d be.

Episode 108: Skript

Just when I thought there was nothing to talk about on this hot, summer day, I find something I’ve been meaning to watch for ages—Never Sleep Again! If you’re a fan of the A Nightmare on Elm Street movies, you should watch it. If you’re not a fan, but into movies and the going ons behind them, you should watch it.

There’s no news this week, but there is Fables. Bigby’s back and so is his wolfpack in Fables: Wolves (Bill Willingham, Mark Buckingham). Too bad, half the trade is fluff.

Episode 107: Simple Names

It is a fine day as I celebrate the Dallas Mavericks beating the Miami Heat! Not one, indeed. I dissect why the Mavericks were the better team. To be honest, I picked the Heat to win in six, but was hoping for the Mavs.

There’s one piece of news this week as I talk about yet another Vertigo cancellation. I’m not surprised because it was one of those simple titles that all the canceled books had. Coincidence? I think not.

I move on talking the recently canceled Vertigo title in Greek Street: Blood Calls for Blood (Peter Milligan, Davide Gianfelice). In case you’re wondering, it’s not about Greek life in a different country.

Episode 106: Back In My Day

Before I talk about comics, I break down my Top 5 Cartoons of all time. Woo-hoo! There’s been some kind of news with DC this week, but I have a hard time remembering it. I think it’s big. Whatever it is, it makes me incoherent.

I move on to Fables: Arabian Days (And Nights) by Bill Willingham and Mark Buckingham. Because of the title expect a lot of singing from Aladdin.
