Pick of the Week #143 – Uncanny X-Men #500

38 min • 27 juli 2008

We're in San Diego for Comic Con, and in between our hectic con schedules, we gathered to record an abbreviated Pick of the Week. Running a little shorter than usual, we talk this week's comics and that's all. We'll be back at full strength/length next week! No show notes though, we'll try to get them done when we get back from San Diego.


Running Time - 00:35:48


Guest Show Notes by Tork! Thanks Tork!


Pick of the Week:

00:02:53 - Ron chooses Uncanny X-Men #500 as his Pick of Week... we think...


Comics:

00:10:54 - Rucka does unspeakable things to Daredevil #109 but that's okay because it was awesome.

00:13:04 - Cyclops has a jet pack... and that's just silly.

00:13:23 -  Liberty Comics gives the CBLDF benefit and gives you Hulk balls... wait, that came out wrong...

00:15:13 - Mark Millar churns out military action superhero style once again with War Heroes #1.

00:17:54 - The New Avengers #43 (otherwise known as Secret Invasion Weekly #17 or so) probably isn't very popular in the PETA offices this week.

00:21:50 - The Immortal Iron Fist #17 somehow manages to still be good without Brubaker and Fraction though Ron did not love the art.

00:23:48 - Ron and Conor amuse themselves with British pseudo-profanity while Josh talks of his love for Dan Dare #7.

00:25:30 - Conor enjoyed the art of the mysterious Juan Doe on Joker's Asylum: Scarecrow but don't ask him what the story was about quite yet.

00:26:17 - James Robinson gives Superman #678 Kirby dots and random Zatanna references but Josh has faith all will make sense soon.

00:27:50 - Conor would talk of Green Lantern Corps #26 and Two-Face: Year One #1 but something called a "con" prevented him from reading either yet.


News:

00:28:45 - The iFanboys give their reflections of the San Diego Comic-Con: Conor burned his head, Gordon scared the poo out of Ron, and Josh got the rickets.
