Episode 102 - Big Arc Retellings, Fallout with Superheroes, Chips Ahoy

4/10/2021

It's like a video game... rhymes with "SmallOut: Shmew Megas" 

Weekly Pull Highlights: April 7, 2021
  • Geiger #1
  • The Rise #1
  • Silver Coin #1
  • Project Patron #1

​Indie titles are really flexing on taking older tropes and stories and completely flipping them upside down. This week, we've got a "super" spin on post-apocalyptic wastelands, a bloody take on horror anthologies, the corporate prequel to the zombie sequel, and the hidden figures behind good old Supes' himself. Man, we love indie books.

Big Liz vs King Monk - who wins? 

It's a battle for the ages - the giant ape who just wants to be left alone, versus man's protector, the ever alpha mega-lizard. Who wins, who loses - is it the best movie ever?

It's Godzilla vs. Kong! And it's... fine? Look, we're not breaking any barriers with this flick, but come find out if our predictions were right anyway!

Episode 101 - The All (Jerk) Father, Not Just Another Spider, You're a Wizard, Chris!

All-Father? More like All-Jerk, if you ask me. 

Weekly Pull Highlights: March 31, 2021
  • Beta Ray Bill #1
  • Silk #1
  • Destiny, NY #1

​There's TWO WHOLE MARVEL BOOKS in this week's episode. I know, I know, it's basically blasphemy. But with new titles focused on Beta Ray Bill and Cindy Moon, it's not THAT surprising... plus, and excellent new indie title that's the perfect lovechild of manga and comic. Oh, and if you see an old wizard around... just ignore him, okay?

Some extraterrestrials from Disney that aren't blue & furry. 

Honorable Mention Highlights: March 24, 2021
  • Lady Baltimore: The Witch Queens #1 (W: Mike Mignola, Christopher Golden; A: Bridgit Connell)
  • Alien #1 (W: Phillip Kennedy Johnson; A: Salvador Larroca)
  • Firefly: Brand New Verse #1 (W: Josh Lee Gordon; A: Fabiana Mascolo)

Lady Baltimore: The Witch Queens #1
You know, there's something about a new story from Mignola that just gets me all excited. If I had to pinpoint it, it's probably because they're ALWAYS good, and this one is - surprise! - no exception. Focused on some super badass ladies fighting super sketchy witches, plus one of our leads is constantly fighting time-period misogyny by, you know, being a badass. It's a good time, fast paced, and I could easily see it becoming a show on Netflix. Just saying. 

Alien #1

New publisher, who dis? Marvel's first dip into the classic Alien franchise takes a step away from dark sci-fi action and instead turns the focus on shady corporate secrets and extreme activism. We get more of a look at what Earth is like in this time period and are introduced to a few (not all human) new characters along the way.

Firefly: Brand New Verse #1

The recent run of Firefly comics have been excellent, and completely unafraid to pull away from the original cast to bring in new friends, new foes, and new fears. This one comes in MUCH later in the future, and appears that it's going to follow (shocker!) Zoe & Wash's daughter, Emma. If you've been hoping to jump into some of the new Firefly stuff, this could be a good starting point, but the vibe is definitely a little different from the previous run, and is a little more lighthearted and maybe silly at points. Definitely has potential to be a fun ride, though!

Episode 100.1 - REEL EXTRA: Zack Snyder's Justice League

And now we get to be depressed about no sequels... 

After years of talking smack as non-believers, we sat down and committed the time to watch the newly released Zack Snyder cut of Justice League. And honestly guys... we were wrong. This movie is awesome!
​
A relatively non-spoilery episode, we break down WHY it's better, and why having a 4 hour runtime is actually it's biggest strength.

​Well now, how about THAT! We made to episode #100, and it's all thanks to you, our amazing listeners. This episode is a bit of a long one, but it's because we have some really great books this week that dive into some really intense themes. And lord knows, we can't pass up a chance to go hyper analytical... it's just what we do.

An awesome, feel good story for 2021! 

​What happens when you mix the Hunger Games with the 2004 Vince Vaughn film, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story? Well, believe it or not, it's probably this book from French filmmaker, Merwan. But don't be deceived by this peculiar summary - this book is a pleasure to read, with incredible storytelling, beautiful artwork, and engaging character development that will you have you fist pumping the air with each page turn. We promise, this is one you won't want to skip out on.

It's just kids in the 70's, doing their thing, man. 

Weekly Pull Highlights: March 10, 2021
  • Karmen #1
  • Proctor Valley Road #1

​Were there quite a few new books that dropped this week? Yes. Did we want to talk about all of them? No, because we want to make recommendations for you, not just announce new releases like an audio listicle. Does that mean this is a short episode? Not really - y'all know we like to talk (a lot).
