Earth-2.net Presents...

Peter Parker sticks it to Norman Osborn (Dark Reign: The List - The Amazing Spider-Man), the Image founders reunite in a unique manner (Image United #1), the Inhumans struggle to keep the cosmos safe (Realm of Kings: Inhumans #1), The Tick celebrates Christmas in his new series (The Tick New Series #1), and J. Michael Straczynski ends his run on Thor (Thor Giant-Sized Finale).

A brand new era in World's Finest Podcast is here, as James and Mike finally sit down to discuss Justice League. First up is "Secret Origins," the three-part episode that redefined these "super friends" for the modern age. And though the series is generally known for its excellence, don't expect the guys to gush from start to finish.

After a short talk about the loss of a horror legend, Desmond and Darryll kickoff an Aussie Dog-themed podcast with the Dennis Hopper-driven Ozsploitation epic Mad Dog Morgan. Then Desmond takes a look at Dingo #1 from BOOM! Studios. Feedback and tunes galore: "Fresh Blood" by The Eels, "Rabid (Over You)" by The Damned, "The Man With the Dogs" by The Dead Kennedys, and "Dog Food" by Iggy Pop. RIP Paul Naschy, you will be missed.

It's time for another Better in the Dark review episode, and Tom and Derrick use it as an excuse to clear out their backlog of listener mail. So in addition to reviewing such films as 2012, Pandorum, District 9, and Paranormal Activity, the Guys Outta Brooklyn tackle a number of movie-related issues. From mourning The Worldwide, to finding out who deserves the blame for Frank Miller thinking he can direct, to giving props to Roger Corman, it's a cavalcade of conversation! Plus, we welcome a new member of the BITD Family! It's better than taking a Food Emporium Salad Bar Lunch to the Film Forum, so get to clicking!

From Green Lantern #15, Tom Deja examines a story where, at the urging of his bowler-hatted manager, Sinestro draws Green Lantern into an insidious trap, and Hal's own absent-mindedness launches him into a new "zero hour" adventure. And I bet you didn't even know that supervillains had managers.

A new hero with a familiar name arises in Terra. A look into a slew of Marvel's alternate realities is had in What If? Classics, volume six. And something truly evil returns in Onslaught Reborn - it's not the title character, either. Also, Mike makes a small announcement.

It's been nearly two and a half years, but Kellen, Randy, and Steph are back to deliver the second part of Was My Childhood a Lie?, a Sailor Moon retrospective.

In this episode of Dread Media, Desmond and Darryll sit down to check out the Blu-ray release of The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue, and Desmond, Megan, and our friend Shannon have a chat about The Twilight Saga: New Moon. This episode glitters, people! Tunes included: "Now He's Dead" by Hank Williams III, "Morgue Than Words" by Wednesday 13, "The Killing Moon" by Nouvelle Vague, and "Seasons in the Abyss" by Hellsongs.

In an eight-part epic, The Doctor, his friends, and the recently formed UNIT must stop a mad businessman and the Cybermen from seizing the planet ("The Invasion"). And then The Doctor and Zoe accidentally resurrect a long-dormant robot species bent on destroying a subservient race ("The Krotons"). The guys also briefly discuss "The Waters of Mars" before answering a few e-mails.

In this installment of 1st Issue Special: a pulp icon looks in on a rookie superhero (Batman / Doc Savage Special), Norman Osborn's X-Men come across a long-lost hero (Dark X-Men #1), Deadpool joins forces with Hercules (Deadpool Team-Up #899), The Punisher prepares to track down The Kingpin (PunisherMax #1), and nations build their own godlike superheroes (Supergod #1).
