Millenial's Bad Fur Day

Andrew and Producer Rob are on the prowl for more tasty comic-book and manga treats.

This week they discover the multi-fronted return of Wolverine (and not just any Wolverine but the extra hot version), the worst DC live-action movie imaginable, the renewal of Legion for a third season, and the trailer for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

After that it's time for the spoils of our hunt with Iceman: Absolute Zero, Evan Dorkin and Jill Thompson's supernatural pet-based horror Beasts of Burden: Animal Rites, Ethan Young's semi-biographical web-comic Life Between Panels: The Complete Tails Omnibus, and B.P.R.D.: The Devil You Know.

Grimy Old Man Logan

We've got a shorter episode than normal of everyone's friendly(ish), neighbourhood comics and manga podcast as Andrew and Producer Rob discuss The Pouch - Rob Liefeld's newest character, the news that Todd Macfarlane will direct the new Spawn movie (which will star Jamie Foxx in the title role), the Netflix television adaptation of Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodríguez's Locke & Key, and the streaming company's collaboration with Mark Millar on the production of an original motion comic (which isn't a cartoon apparently).

After that it's time for some comics in the form of Phoenix Resurrection: The Return of Jean Grey, and from the pages of Archie Comics we have the collected Jughead’s Time Police.

Dimension Jumping Lassie

Andrew and Producer Rob are back to talk about some narrative sequential art (you know, comics and stuff … and maybe the odd cave painting).

Kicking things off this week is the news that Mysterio will be the main villain in the sequel to Spiderman: Homecoming, which leads us on to a defunct concept called Old Man Peter Parker. After that we discover that Disney World Florida is offering Marvel haircuts, and the news that Damon Lindelof's Watchmen will be a “remix” of sorts.

This week's featured comics and manga America Vol. 2: Fast and Fuertona, Chi’s Sweet Adventure volume 1, Aliens: Dead Orbit and Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku volume 1.

Everyone Forgets About Turkish Superman

It's time for another dose of that anarchic comic-book "medicine" that your ears desperately need, so join us as we have a chat about a Doom Patrol TV series, and a prequel/origin story spinoff for Gotham about Bruce Wayne's trusty butler Alfred (which is going by the simple moniker Pennyworth). We also discuss Kevin Feige's hints about Kamala Khan's addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the trailer for the TV adaptation of Rick Remender's Deadly Class. 

With such a considerable amount of news, we consider ourselves a lucky, lucky podcast.

After all that it's time to get down and dirty with our featured comics and manga which this week are Deadpool Vs Old Man Logan, Generation X: Survival of the Fittest, The New Mutants: Demon Bear, Avengers: Mighty Origins, Avengers (2016), the fifth volume of That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime by Fuse, and X-Men: Grand Design.

Because Tank Girl!

It's a special day for comic-book fans. A time when rich and poor alike can enjoy the antics of superheroes and villains together … until the inevitable fight over the last free issue of whatever's popular at the time.

That's right. It's Free Comic-Book Day which means we have a big pile of comics and we're going to cover ourselves in them and damn the consequences (but maybe leave the shop first before you think of doing that).

With so many titles to get through we've had to be selective, so join Andrew, Mick and Producer Rob as they get acquainted and reacquainted with The Tick, Shadowman/X-O Manowar, A Brief History of Tank Girl, Relay, James Bond 007: Varga, Lady Mechanika, Transformers Unicron, Doctor Who, Invasion (featuring Captain Canuck), 2000 A.D. Regened, and Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes (with a bonus Captain America story).

We haven't even finished yet, so we'll be back with more free comics after we manage to dig ourselves out from the pile …

He Ain't Heavy, He's My Lens Flare

After some Thanos-based finger-snapping shenanigans only two-thirds of us are available for this episode, so join Mick and Producer Rob as they discuss J.J. Abrams' new and "subversive" superhero movie, DC's plans for another TV adaptation Swamp Thing, and a strange case involving Superman, Lois Lane, the Church of Scientology and the FBI. After that it's time for a chat about Avengers: Infinity War - which we try to make as spoiler-free as possible.

This week's featured comics are Black Panther: Shuri - Deadliest of the Species, Spider Men II and Punisher: The Platoon. We also have time for another movie (we really are a comics and manga podcast, honest!), with Takashi Miike's adaptation of Hiroaki Samura's violent, supernatural samurai manga series Blade of the Immortal.

Morbius, The Eurotrash Vampire

It's time to get neck deep into comics and manga again, and this week we've stolen "borrowed" one of the hosts from another show in the Geek Show's podcast family. He's [in] our gaffe now.

Unfortunately we recorded this a few days before that movie hit cinemas everywhere, but we will be talking about it on the next show so don't worry.

In the meantime we have a nice chat about the trailer for Venom, Joss Whedon's horrible script for Wonder Woman (which he has tried to defend), lots of hints and reveals from Mr MCU himself - Kevin Feige - about things to come, and to top it all off we also find out how he reacted to the … erm … jealously(?), of a famous science fiction director called James. 

After that it's time for our featured comics and manga which are: That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime volume 4 by Fuse, Dust Ship Glory by Elaine M. Will, Avengers: Infinity War Prelude, Chimichanga: The Sorrow of the World's Worst Face! by Eric Powell and Stephanie Buscema, and The Initiates by Etienne Davodeau.

Magical Girl or Interpretative Dance?

Mick returns from his travels to join Andrew and Producer Rob for another hearty blast of comics and manga, which this week kicks off with the confirmation that Syfy have ordered the TV adaptation of Rick Remender's Deadly Class, and the possibility that Steven Spielberg may direct a DC superhero movie. Sticking with DC, we also discover that Margot Robbie's Harely Quinn will feature in the movie adaptations of Birds of Prey.

After all of that it's time for what everyone is really here for, but what featured comics and manga do we have up our sleeves this week? Well, there's a Fukushima Devil Fish by Susumu Katsumata, Star Wars: Jedi of the Republic – Mace Windu, Avengers and the Infinity Gauntlet, Frau Faust volume 4 by Kore Yamazaki, and Marvel Platinum: The Definitive Avengers Redux.

Banana-Flavoured Iron Fist

It's often said that it's not the destination that's important but the journey itself, which is good news for us as we often wonder how can start with a simple bit of news and wind up somewhere … else. Aside from that it's time for your weekly dose of comic-book and manga goodness which will be administered through your ears by Andrew, Producer Rob and Editor Rob.

Kicking things off is the news that the rather excellent series Injection by Warren Ellis has been optioned for TV - something that we're all looking forward to. After that we discuss the villains in the second season of Luke Cage, and the announcement that C. B. Cebulski and Hiro Mashima will both be judges in a collaborative award between Kodansha and Marvel that will focus on certain superhero manga.

Our featured comics and manga are Image's Rumble, Marvel Legacy, The Sentry, Arakawa Under the Bridge volumes 1 & 2 by Hikaru Nakamura, Star Wars: Doctor Aphra and The Enormous Profit (volume 2 in the series), and the first volume of the surrealist comedy manga City by Keiichi Arawi (the creator of Nichijou: My Ordinary Life).

The Power of Sparkles Compels You

When does nightmare fuel eventually travel full-circle and become hilarious? That's the sort of question that can only be answered on the latest edition of 4-Panel.

Join Andrew and Rob as they talk about all things comics & manga, and kicking off this week are the 42nd annual Kodansha manga award nominees followed by the surprising news that a "metal" band are getting their own graphic novel. After that it's time for lots and lots of speculation about the possible changes to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in - and after - the upcoming Infinity War movie.

Our featured comics and manga are Stars Wars: The Clone Wars Volume 2 - Legends, Cell Block Earth and Other Stories, Junji Ito’s Gyo: The Death-Stench Creeps & The Enigma of Amigara Fault and To Your Eternity volume 3.
