There's exciting news for the near future of the podcast, and the tunes rounding out the show are "Beware of Ghouls" by The Other (www.myspace.com/theother) and "Partytime (Zombie Version)" by 45 Grave (www.myspace.com/45grave2005).

Des, Great Show!

Brian Keene is one of the good ones.

To be blunt, I totally disagree with your friend's assessment that writing "two-page" reviews demeans comic books. In fact, I take great insult to that, not because I'm a comic book critic, but because by not taking time to review them in length we're demeaning them. Why is it okay to over-analyze books, movies, theater and televisions shows, but not comic books? They're a perfectly valid form of storytelling and to take them at face value, to not looker deeper, to compare them to Pop-Tarts is an insult to anyone and everyone who's ever laid pencil to paper.

One man's opinion. I wouldn't take offense.
