Ep. 26 – Trashcan Edition

This week sees the return of the Underground Comics Challenge as we take a look at Zombie Outlaw, while we continue our read-throughs of the classics Watchmen and Identity Crisis.

Grant Morrison seems to have pissed off Chris something chronic with the quality of Action Comics. Our favourite comics writer has one issue left to please us, or we’re off! We also check out Stormwatch, Swamp Thing and Animal Man from the DCnU titles and catch up with Ultimate Spidey.

By the way, if you’re a new listener and you don’t understand our references to Pripyat, check out our Halloween Special.

Show Notes for Ep. 26 – Trashcan Edition

07:45 – We thought STORMWATCH #7 was the weakest issue to date – we’re just itching for Peter Milligan to get started.

14:24 – Chris has a rant about the “utter shit” ACTION COMICS #7.

23:40 – ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN #8 was cool but we’re desperately waiting for this to kick-off.

30:05 – Was Firestorm’s death in IDENTITY CRISIS #5 supposed to be funny? Well it most certainly was.

48:36 – Our Underground Comics Challenge returns as we take a look at ZOMBIE OUTLAW.

64:40 – ANIMAL MAN #7 proves that while we will miss Travel Foreman, this book is not in trouble with Steve Pugh on art.

71:59 – Masterful, that’s the only way we can describe SWAMP THING #7.

81:47 – Oh Hello! It’s WATCHMEN CHAPTER 3 and we talk penis.
