202 up tomorrow night: Major recordings today and big week coming
We have some very cool recording opportunities this weekend so I am releasing a new show on Monday. (Very slim chance on this evening if our recordings end early enough but Monday night is for sure.)
We are interviewing artist Jamal Igle on his recent Supergirl work.
Our Blackest Night wrap up will be recorded as well.
We also have JLA/Avengers part 1 recorded and will be recording part 2 next week.
There are big plans for C2E2 (April 16-18) with lots of comic chat, interviews, a review of the film Hero Tomorrow and much much more.
I’ll be posting more concrete details as we finish recording and editing gets moving.

P.S. If you don’t own Hero Tomorrow, it’s a fantastic indie film. I will be posting more details this week but check out the web site.

I am not an artist but adore seeing to various stages at creating comic book art work. The amount of care and detail that goes into each step is amazing to me. The cover work of Batman and Robin has been showcased in a series of posts this week over at DC’s Source Blog. I am loving that they are doing this so wanted to draw your attention there.
The other cool part of this series is that it is Showcasing the inspiration from Batman’s past that these covers are drawing from. Just fantastic.
Batman and Robin Preview

This is exactly what I think is so great about the Batman books at the moment. High adventure with deep mysteries at the core that have been built over time. Why is Batman the world’s greatest detective? His world needs him to be that way. His world has put him in a position where that skill set is needed. I love that. The road to RIP with filled with this and I am glad to see that all of that matters and is part of a carefully laid out plan. It makes me more excited and invested in my monthly reading. That is so satisfying.
Episode 201 is finally here: Shield #7, interview with Art Lyon, Contest winners announced and more.
Episode 201: We are joined by friend of the show and colorist Art Lyon as he discusses his work on the Shield #7. We also briefly discuss Batman Widening Gyre and comic films.
Also, we have some listener voicemails and emails to celebrate 200 shows and the greatest DC stories of all time.

Deadline Next Saturday!!!
I am working heavily on Episode 201 today. I have to take a break for holiday dinner with my dad but I am posting a show tonight for sure. My wife has been on vacation so we spent the last couple of days with family and took some time together. We’ll still have 4 shows in April. I am keeping the same goal for 2010 as 2009 4 episodes or more a month.
Hope your kick off to spring has been great.
Episode 201 delayed slightly due to the holidays and contest update
I’ve been juggling visiting with family and friends over this weekend, plus my wife is on spring break. Episode 201 is about halfway done. Both 201 and 202 feature guests and I like to edit those a bit more diligently to make sure they sound fantastic. I feel they deserve that for giving us so much time. My goal is to try my best to have 201 up tomorrow night. I’ll keep you posted. Thanks so much for the patience on the holiday weekend. These are very fun recordings and I want them to be perfect.
201 will also have the official announcement of contest prize winners. If you entered the contest, email me at ragingbullets@gmail.com with your name and address. All entries for this contest will be winning a prize. We will announce the grand prize (David Baron’s great comic boxes) and 1st runner up (trade of choice from instock trades) on this episode. The rest will get to choose from our show prize box.
Poll: Blackest Night 8
Note: This poll is spoiler filled and will be up for a week. Which event from the end of issue 8 excited you the most? Choose as many as you like or add your own.
Neal Adams on Batman!!!
http://dcu.blog.dccomics.com/2010/04/02/its-official-neal-adams-on-batman-odyssey/
I grew up loving Neal Adams and can’t recommend enough the Batman Illustrated by Neal Adams 3 volume set. It features Neal Adams complete Batman work, including covers and special artifacts recolored and remastered. It is just a gorgeous collection.
I am so stoked to see him working on a 12 issue Batman series. This has been rumored and in the worked for some time but to have an official announcement has me really excited. July can’t come soon enough. If you are new to comics and have never seen this creator’s visual work, you are in for a treat. This takes me back to my childhood. Just awesome news!!!
Episode 201 up Friday or Saturday, 202 early to mid next week, 203 following weekend
We’ve done some big recordings the past couple of nights and now it is on to editing and releasing content to you.
201 will be this weekend’s release: We talk to colorist Art Lyon about his work on the Shield #7, and have a brief discussion about Batman Widening Gyre.
