Episode 61: Death of the Floppy
DC announced two new Static Shock projects this weekend, and neither is a floppy. It’s the wave of the future…
Aster of Pan v1
Aster lives in a post-apocalyptic world and will soon be fighting for her people in an epic game of dodgeball.
Orbital v8: “Contacts”
The Neuronemes are exploding, causing political strife in the government and a mad dash for answers to the problems causing it in the field.
Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips Go European
Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips’ next project together might as well just be released by Dupuis or Lombard, for pity’s sake.
Lena v1: “Lena’s Odyssey”
Lena is a spy traveling across Europe, delivering packages and messages. Don’t worry — she’s not going to get into any trouble. Seriously.
Episode 59: BD is a Better Value
Marvel wants you to pay $5 for a 20 page story. I have a better idea — look at the hundreds of BD books on sale this weekend, down to 99 cents each.
Episode 58: Variant Covers
Variant Covers are a short term solution to a very big Direct Market comics problem.
Episode #57: Marvel’s Many Licenses
Scholastic is just the latest publisher that Marvel has licensed its characters out to. What does this mean?
The Gremillet Sisters v1: “Sarah’s Dreams”
Three sisters, some floating jellyfish, and a family mystery. Alessandro Barbucci provides the art, which is all you need to know.
Episode 56: Asterix in America 2
The new editions of Asterix are now available through Papercutz. I have thoughts, and some of them are not what you might expect.
