RSS Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Batman has re-formed the Outsiders, and their first mission involves stopping an OMAC and a European space launch (Batman and the Outsiders, volume one). First Spider-Man has to prevent Mr. Negative from killing off the entire New York City mafia, then he teams with Jackpot to stop a new Goblin (Spider-Man: Brand New Day, volume one). And then Maxwell Lord's new (yet familiar) team of superheroes bumbles into one adventure after another (Formerly Known as the Justice League).

Dan Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 This was fun. And jeez, Mike, you must have cut an hour out of Brand New Day. :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Actually, I think I edited out more from our Outsiders and Justice League discussions. Besides a few things, Brand New Day remains mostly intact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koete Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Can't wait for the review of X-Force Vol. 1. I picked it up originally for Crain's artwork, but ended up really enjoying the story as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professor Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Great show guys. I am glad to hear that you both enjoyed the Justice League trade so much as I have been thinking about getting it for a little while now. And Mike, I have to ask again, what is the music this week?

Missy Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 "Spider-Man" by The Buffalo and "Dating Batman" by Cars Can Be Blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 I was in my local shitty comic shop and saw batman and the outsiders hard cover, I couldn't help but laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 The above two posts were meant for episode 273... Great show so far guys. Dan, do me a favor and never, NEVER, compare Chuck Dixon to Marv Wolfman. Teen Titans and Tomb of DRacula versus a career of mediocrity. No contest. I met them both on the same day and they are clearly different personalities. For instance, Mr. Wolfman is aware of human decency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Quick backtrack... On the whole, I agree with you. In fact, I even said that I thought Dixon was overrated on account of being a workmanlike writer in an era when even that was too much to ask for. However, I met Marv Wolfman at a con (and I agree, he was a stand-up guy), and he said something that always stuck with me: "Everyone in this room might be capable of writing a better story than anything I ever dreamed of writing. However, no one in this room could do it month in and month out, on time every month, at the same steady level I do." And that was what I had in mind. Dixon would never in a million years write Kingdom Come, but he could write Robin for seventy-three years and never miss an issue. (In my defense, and Mike will attest to this, I was a little under the weather, and I was having a rough time during recording. The fact that I came out making any sort of sense at all is a testament to Mike's mad phat editing skillz.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Seriously. That hour and a half podcast took us well over three hours to record. "Um... uh... sorry, I'm lost. What were we talking about?" Yes folks, I am just that professional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 So let me guess this right: Mike is against Spider-Man getting cake for Aunt May unless it's Wolverine baking it at the end of the issue, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 I find it hard to believe that Mike hasn't read this team's run on JL. It's like tailor-made for you! I still think Justice League Antarctica is one of, if not THE most awesomest comics ever created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Though I was reading comics during the DeMatteis / Giffen / Maguire Justice League era, I was a much more casual reader back then. The local grocery and drug stores only carried so much, and I grabbed whatever covers caught my eye. For whatever reason, as a kid, those JLA covers weren't worth my $0.75. As I grew older and learned of that era, it came down to money; you can't read what you can't afford, and I couldn't (and can't) afford the back issues.

Dan Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 For whatever reason, as a kid, those JLA covers weren't worth my $0.75. Something about this sentence makes me smile very, very sadly. $0.75. Man. I'd probably buy Cable for $0.75 nowadays. I've seen a lot of these issues in $0.50 bins. And there's a certain website that carries that first hardcover for $13. Which I would buy for twice that, easily, if I didn't already have it.

Missy Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 The problem with buying the collected edition is that I'm on a very tight budget right now, plus I'm running out of room for my comics, trades and hardcovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
