Cover B Podcast

Our first stand-alone edition of 'Graphic Novelties,' where we discuss graphic novels, both new and old, that we think you should know about. This week, we're discussing the new Ed Brubaker & Sean Phillips book, 'PULP,' and all it's neo-western glory. A book Ed didn't even really want to make (thanks for prodding him, Sean!), this is an excellent tale with beautiful art. Time to add something a little heftier to your comic buy!

Admittedly, this week was kind of light on new titles and books we thought you needed to know about, so we decided to give our thoughts on the new Netflix Original movie adaptation of Greg Rucka's "The Old Guard." A good flick with great action (Charlize, you're a goddess), we cover the nuanced needs of bringing a comic to the big screen and the dangers that come with giving fans what they think they want.

• Chu #1
• Canto and the Clockwork Fairies #1
• Bliss #1
• Yasmeen #1

We don't know what happened over at Scout Comics, but they are KILLIN' IT right now with their new titles! This week we discuss Yasmeen #1, as well as a handful of other great new indie books we're excited about. Oh, and if you thought Tee had finally moved beyond Baby Yoda... well, that's more on you, really.

• Empyre #1
• It Eats What Feeds It #1
• Murder Hobo: Beaten, Broken & Buggard #1
• Sacred Six #1

The much anticipated Empyre #1 is finally here and it's got a heckin' twist that you won't (or totally will) see coming! We've also got DnD inside jokes galore, and an incredible new Dynamite title you don't want to miss. Also, leave my teenage online diary alone.

• Fantastic Four Empyre #0
• Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow #1
• DCeased: Dead Planet #1

After a week with no Marvel or DC, we come roaring back with three great books! Dan Slott kicks off the Fantastic Four's side of the Empyre story, DCeased comes back to make us all cry (again), and the Whedonverse grows a little more with a brand new title dedicated to Willow. It's like we never left (but don't lie, you missed us)!

• Captain America Marvels Snapshot #1
• That Texas Blood #1
• S.O.S #1
• Avengers Empyre #0

What a week in comics! Brand new Marvel throwing us into the deep end of the new Empyre event, incredible new indie comics putting genres on their side, and a super sweet compilation all about the joys of your local comic shop. The world might be crazy, but comics keep us grounded, folks. Let's get into it!

• Dark Nights: Death Metal #1
• Wynd #1
• A Man Among Ye #1

We took a couple weeks off for some personal (and some political) reasons, but we are BACK and coming at you with a relatively short, but certainly to the point, episode. With a handful of great new number ones, and a surprising ability to stay on topic, we hope this Cover B is refreshing without weighing you down, like when you eat a banana instead of nachos. You're welcome.

• Rogue Planet #1
• Dead Day #1
• Avengers #33
• The V-Card #4
• Doctor Aphra #1

It's beginning to look a lot like new comics in here! From new beginnings, to quality endings, we've got everything from Star Wars, to alien planets, to potential reboots galore. Things are finally starting to feel a little more business as usual, but we still hope you're safe and sound. Join us for more, NEW, Cover B!

• Ludocrats #1
• Kyrra: Alien Jungle Girl #1
• Year Zero #1

The COVID-19 comic drought has officially ended with this week's new comic day! While Marvel is still out for the time being, and DC is only publishing very limited titles, we DID get our hands on 3 great new indie titles that we're so excited to share and talk about! We thank you for your immense patience as we waited for the comic world to restart, and we're glad to have you back with us for a BRAND NEW EPISODE of Cover B!

This week was pretty crazy, and since Chris wasn't able to join for our weekly recording, Tee decided to take the reins and talk all about something near and dear to her heart - cosplay! Learn some surprising tips for getting started, including 5 things you may think you have to do, but don't, to be a cosplayer! (Hint: No sewing machine required!)
