Booked Comic Podcast

Holy crap! After a months long hiatus everybody at Booked is back for a brand new episode! First, Steve explains what happened to the live episode that was being talked about on the previous episode and all the problems there. Then the entire panel, including Jenosaur, Rob Lobster, T-Bot and Katie Findlay catch you up on what they've be reading over the extended break. So listen in and welcome the Booked crew back to the podcast world!

It's been more than enough time for people to check out Avengers: Age of Ultron, so it's time to get in depth about it. Stevil, Jenosaur, Rob Lobster and T-Bot have a total geek off after seeing the most anticipated movie of the beginning of 2015.

What were their favorite parts of the movie? What character did this movie belong to? Hawkeye? Hulk? Black Widow? The panel also gets in depth with what they believe is being set up with each little easter egg.

This week on Booked our heroes also give you a taste of what their reading in the "Put This In Your Eyeholes" segment. What are you reading that you think we should check out? Let us know in the comments below or on Twitter!

With less than a month before their panel at North West Fan Fest at the end of May, Stevil, Rob Lobster and The Jenosaur are back together along with their guest, Crossfire Comics' T-Bot. They catch up with Trevor and get the scoop on what's happening with Rawhide Bushido, which is available now on Tapastic.

Then our panel gets chatting about things they've missed over the last few weeks. How awesome is Daredevil on Netflix? DC Comics is trying to push a powerful female superhero after getting called out by a kid and Jenosaur is supremely excited for the AMC and Seth Rogen produced Preacher series, as casting is now complete. All these stories plus much more on this brand new episode!

Another reminder that Booked will be at the North West Fan Fest on Friday, May 29th at 4:30 pm. Don't miss it!

This week for a brand new Booked Stevil goes solo as he chats with Wes Locher, the creator and writer of Unit 44, a new comic about a couple of bumbling Area 51 agents who forget to pay the rent on a storage space filled with secret contents and is subsequently sold to some rednecks at a public auction.

Stevil and Wes chat about the inception of the idea, stemmed from Wes's own fascination with aliens possible existence, the instant gratification of collaborating with artist Ed Jimenez and the style choice of comedy over the usual dark and gritty. Wes also fills Stevil in on the great freedom creating your own independent comic in the new digital landscape.

Unit 44 is available now on Comixology and can also be found on Wes and Ed's website.

Stevil and Rob Lobster are full of information for you to consume this week. They give you the lowdown of what's in stores to check out, like Howard the Duck, Spawn Resurrection and Batman: Arkham Knight to accompany the video game's release in the beginning of June. They also commend Boom Studios and IDW for giving us comic continuations of classic movies. Through this we also find out that Robster hasn't seen a pivotal 90s classic! Gasp!

Our guys again tackle the comic TV and film info with some casting news, as well as letting you know that Powers is now on the Playstation network. There's a brand new Daredevil trailer out ahead of the April 10th launch, there may be a potential Deathstroke casting for David Ayer's upcoming Suicide Squad and Valiant Entertainment is venturing into the TV and film medium as well.

Booked ends off their episode with a heartfelt message to the late Terry Pratchett, a massive influence on imaginations across the world. He will truly be missed.

The Stevil Dead and Rob Lobster have an absolute metric buttload of DC Comics talk this week from the Booked-Cave, as a big announcement came regarding the future of the massive publishing company after the Convergence event.

The guys also have the full roster of which DC characters will be gracing the small screen for TNT's upcoming adaptation Titans. Will this be a team we recognize? With Robin/Nightwing leading the team, will we see Batman in this? Which incarnation of Starfire/Princess Koriand'r will we see and in how much/little clothing? She got a little "promiscuous" in the New 52 and destroyed some of the feelings we had of the Teen Titans.

Also, Superman has new powers? Is the big blue Boy Scout able to go "Super Saiyan" now? With the reveal of the Kryptonians new super flare ability, the boys discuss whether this will benefit the character or is only a short-term gimmick to bring new readers.

Finally, Stevil and Rob address the news that Marvel super writer Brian Michael Bendis is leaving the X-Men world after Uncanny X-Men #600. Will he ever return? What previously untouched character does he have his sights on next?

Booked returns for their first podcast in the brand new year of 2015! Rob Lobster and The Stevil Dead have some thoughts on the upcoming Secret Wars Marvel event, as well as DC Comics Convergence!

How do these two massive events stack up against each other. How long has Jonathan Hickman, Axel Alonso and Tom Brevoort been planning this giant, universe ending epic? Does the DC Comics  office shifting Convergence event have the same kind of weigh behind it as Marvel does? Will any of the small miniseries being released during this have any lasting effect on the continuing New 52 universe?

Ranging from teenage superheroes to Gods walking amongst us, they cover the bases of what you may have missed this year. Finishing off with what has them waiting outside their comic shops, the boys of Booked also have many unconvention books for you put on your pre order list in the next coming months.
