Acmecast

Jermaine skypes from his car while Stephen tries to hold the whole recording set-up together from a hotel room in C2E2, but the whole conglomeration of tin cans and string is worth it to bring you the latest news from Chicago as it affects you, the Acmecast listener!

Show Notes:

Jermaine, Stephen and Griffin get you up to speed on everything you can expect during Acme Comics' Free Comic Book Day 2013 celebrations on Saturday, May 4th, give you a sneak peak between the covers of many of this year's must-have offerings, and ponder the consequences of some of this week's most over-looked titles from the New 52!

Show Notes:

Jermaine finally gets a chance, now halfway through the series, to talk about Age of Ultron until he's blue (or gold [AU]) in the face, but not before Stephen and Jody lay out the controversy between Apple, Comixology and Saga #12, spotlight some exciting collection offerings from Marvel in July, and debate the diversification of the Superior Spider-man line!

Show Notes:

Jermaine, Stephen and Riley FINALLY get G-Man creator Chris Giarrusso on the line just two weeks before the Acme Comics release party for his new original graphic novel, G-Man vol. 3 Coming Home, on Wednesday, May 1st!

Show Notes:

Jermaine, Stephen, Griffin and Jody eulogize the late, great Carmine Infantino, highlight conflct in Sean Howe's Marvel Comics: the Untold Story prose history, figure out Wha's Up With That in this week's new releases, and make some rock-solid DVD recommendations!

Show Notes:

Jermaine and Stephen spend the better part of an hour talking to East of West and Avengers writer Jonathan Hickman about collection price-point theory, building Earth's Mightiest Heroes towards Marvel's newest event this summer, and scribing a Disney's the Black Hole sequel!

Jermaine and Acmecast special correspondant Ryan Rubio mark the release of this past week's G.I. Joe Retaliation with a show recording last May before the original release date of the live-action sequel, in which they recall some of their favorite (and craziest) episodes from the original 1980s cartoon and Marvel Comics series and compare and contrast them against IDW's most modern interpretations of the continuity!

Show Notes:

Jermaine is bothered about being expected to appraise comics that their owners have no intention of selling to the store and Stephen is annoyed about Marvel's goals for their new graphic novel initiative. Jody and Griffin, they're along for the ride. And say "hey" to Liz!

Show Notes: 

Jermaine, Stephen, Riley and Brian speak with Winter Soldier writer, Sledgehammer 44 artist and North Carolina's own Jason Latour to discuss his role as a double threat writer & artist but not cartoonist (yet!) as well as the future of Cheerwine in the comic industry!

Show Notes:

Jermaine, Stephen and Riley stay glued to the news ticker for a while to get out all the info they can about Brian K. Vaughan & Marcos Martin's new digital exclusive comics Private Eye, Bendis & Oeming & Doyle's Guardians of the Galaxy Infinite Comics, the shake-ups to the creative teams for Action Comics & Green Lantern Corps, the Ant-Man movie test footage and all the comics that sold out off the table!
