So I was planning on recording episode 3 last week, but I ran into a bit of a technical glitch, my laptop began a slow spiral to complete brain death. It’s in the shop but I should have one I can use to record episode 3 by the end of the week. I’ll cram 2 weeks worth of reviews into it and then next week I’ll have my brief history of the DC Universe on tap for late in the week (as a seperate cast from the review cast).

OK I’m doing something a little different with this cast, it’s a review cast. I plan on reviewing a couple of comics each week. These are comics I recommened for anyone who’s interested in comics. To help people jump into these issues I’m giving character background and a summary of how we got to where we are. Sometimes these issues will be in the middle of an arc, my goal is to give you enough background and very few spoilers for the current issue. This weeks issues are Amazing Spider-Man #540 and Green Arrow #74. So sit back, listen and be sure to let me know what you think.

As a side note I think this is a much better episode but I’m still working on a few things. Hope you guys enjoy.

Note: When I talk about the Spider-Man television show I’m not refering to any of the cartoons, I’m refering to the live action show which starred Nicholas Hammond as Peter/Spidey. Man I loved that show as a kid.

I have recorded an episode 2, but after some thought I’ve decided not to post it and to go back to the drawing board for this podcast. After careful consideration I realized my podcast, which is meant to make comics more accessible wasn’t very accessible, seems like a fundemental flaw if you ask me. So look for shorter podcasts, more than once a week and covering different things. I expect to record the first one tonight, I expect it to come in at 20 to 30 minutes and be posted tomorrow.

The idea here is to be very casual friendly, so I’ll not only be keeping people apprised of the big events across the Marvel and DC universes. I’ll be making recommendations for people who read very few titles and doing reviews of them and other titles. Hopefully this makes the podcast more accessible and less of a one hour lecture each week from Professor Curry.

Also, I’m going to start answering questions at the beginning of podcasts, the harder the better. So send em if you want em answered.
