Podcast - Episode 154: The Infinity Gauntlet

We wrapped up the summer book club this week with The Infinity Gauntlet.

I still have a headache from it.

Here is that tweet I promised I would find the author of and credit. It was Rusty Shackles, in reply to Jeff Parker:

I hope they shapeshift into the first people they see and it’s all Panama Jack and Tweety pic.twitter.com/BgaKw3ZJj5

Alright, thanks for reading along, or at least listening along. Send us ideas for books we should discuss, or topic ideas!

Podcast - Episode 149: Thor: The God Butcher / Godbomb

Another week of our summer book club and this week we are talking about Jason Aaron and Esad Ribic's Thor masterpiece, The God Butcher / Godbomb. I love this story so much.

Here is the new Wordburglar video!

Sean will be joining us next week to celebrate our 150th episode! We will be talking about John Byrne's West Coast Avengers story, Vision Quest, and watching the Ghost Rider movie.

See you then!

Podcast - Episode 146: Ant-Man and The Wasp

We saw Ant-Man and The Wasp! Don't listen to this episode if you don't want to be SPOILED!

And, of course, you want to see the Punisher balloon that local comic fan/magician Mr J made for Garth Ennis:

Balloon Punisher War Journal, entry 4573: "A bullet grazed me today but I don't think it fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft."

See you in two weeks for Hellboy Omnibus vol. 1! I'm going on vacation!!!!

Podcast - Episode 145: The Punisher: Welcome Back, Frank

Week two of the summer book club! In anticipation of Garth Ennis's appearance at Strange Adventures on July 7, we read the 2000 Ennis and Steve Dillon series, The Punisher: Welcome Back, Frank.

Compared to what's happening in the world these days, it's a light, summer read.

Next week we will be taking a break from the book club to talk about Ant-Man and The Wasp! See you then!

Podcast - Episode 144: Agents of Atlas

The 2018 Living Between Wednesdays Summer Book Club has begun!

We're kicking things off with a really fun Marvel mini-series from 2006 by Jeff Parker and Leonard Kirk: Agents of Atlas. The fact that this series was shaped out of a long-forgotten "What If...?" issue is pretty impressive.

Next week we will be reading The Punisher: Welcome Back, Frank by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon in preparation for Garth Ennis's visit to Strange Adventures in Halifax on July 7!

Podcast - Episode 130: Superhero Makeovers

You know when a creator completely changes an existing character and then that character stays that way forever (for better or for worse)? We're talking about that this week.

No new episode next week. I'm gonna be in sunny Toronto! We'll be back March 21!
