This week, the guys review some really solid titles and books. In fact, this episode marks the first time where all three titles got high marks since Brian joined the show. First, Tony discusses A+X's first issue. If you loved the classic Marvel Two-In-One or Marvel Team-Up issues, you will enjoy this run. Just imagine some of your favorite Avengers/X-Men characters teaming up, especially after Avengers vs. X-Men but don't tell Dave about that. Speaking of Dave, he gives tribute to Joe Kubert, who some people would argue as being one of the most important creators in comic book history. DC Comics launches a special 6-issue tribute to Mr. Kubert, and Dave discusses his contribution to the industry. Lastly, Brian talks about Superman: Earth One, Volume 2, the follow-up to the acclaimed Volume 1 title. It's a different take on the Superman mythos and characters in this world, but it's a creation worth following...The guys discuss the breaking news that the "Mighty Mouse" aka Disney has added the "Empire" aka Lucasfilm to their arsenal. What does this mean... more importantly, will we see Han Solo AND Donald Duck in the same storyline? Heads will explode with the possibilities on this one.
Lastly, the "Professor" Brian Smith teaches us yet again an important piece of work that all comic book fanboys/fangirls need to learn and live... this week, Mark Waid's Kingdom Come is discussed and dissected for study. This is a classic tale of superbeings faced with moral dilemmas that impact their world like never before... get educated on this classic title.
The Atomic Fallout Society... furthering education better than any politician could ever imagine.
