Acmecast

The gang of Jermaine, Stephen, Frank, Adrian and Adam really begins to gel as they mourn the loss of Dwayne McDuffie, have a lively conversation while catching up with Jeremy and Kelly Dale, choose sides between Fantastic Four #588 and Amazing Spider-man #655 and dig through all of the other comics at the table!

Stephen uses all of his editing powers to rearrange the pieces of this week's episode into a puzzle for everyone to enjoy! One thing that was completely on point? Our guest, Return of the Dapper Men and Widowmaker writer Jim McCann, who took some time on the day of its release to go over all of the ins-and-outs of HAWKEYE: BLINDSPOT #1!

On this happiest of Valentime's weekends, we talk to our old buddy Gregg Schigiel via Skype for the first time, discussing SpongeBob Comics #1 and the Super Bowl comic movie spots. We also become a podcast crew divided over New Avengers #9 and take a look into next week! And Frank almost gets us in trouble!

NOTE! Gregg wants everyone to know that the Mike Maihack comic that escaped him during the recording is entitled COW & BUFFALO!

We did not record this on a plane. We did not record this on a train. We did not record it from a car. We did not record it from afar. We just had some unforeseen technical difficulties. But if you can make it through, get ready for one of the most lively and informative Acmecasts to date!

Jermaine and Stephen are joined once again by Frank and Adrian as they discuss the results of Fantastic Four #587 less than 24 hours after its release, praise some books and downright boo others, say their farewells to Wizard magazine and get a little silly in the process!

BONUS! - the first person to correctly guess where the title of this week's episode comes from gets a prize!

Jermaine, Frank and Stephen travel through the time vortex that is day-early delivery to bring you a little number crunching on December's industry sales estimates and reviews of this week's books!

Adam takes the wheel as he and Stephen run through a litany of pop culture that includes Grant Morrison: Talking With Gods, Man v. Food, Red Mango, Oz, the Doctor Who Christmas Special and Pawn Stars!

In an effort to make up for missing last week and to top the holiday special, the gang stays topically topical and goes over an hour for the longest Acmecast to date! Jermaine, Stephen and Frank reveal the initial guest list for Free Comic Book Day 2011, announce the Customer of the Year for 2010, say farewell to Joe Quesada as Marvel's EIC, discuss Alan Moore's controversial statement from this week, make their predictions for who in the FF is going to bite it, enjoy some Comics at the Table and give you the chance to get FREE Green Hornet movie passes! Whew!

As the minutes tick away on Christmas Eve EVE, Stephen and Jermaine, along with an all-star cast of guests, bring you a radio drama, reflect on some of their biggest moments of the year, making the first creator announcements for Free Comic Book Day 2011, get knee-deep in this week's books and throw some stocking stuffer ideas at you!
