Jenny's back just in time for a look at the May Previews catalog!

It's a first issue extravaganza! This week Des and Mike spoke about American Dream #1, Avengers / Invaders #1, Invincible Iron Man #1, Iron Man: Viva Las Vegas #1 and Thunderbolts: Reason in Madness. Surprisingly, one of the hosts wasn't crazy about the big release this week, and another book truly amazed both of them!

In a recent panel discussion, independent cartoonists Ivan Brunetti, John Hankiewicz and Onsmith spoke about their craft, personal lives and what inspires them to create. Presented here is a recording of said panel.

While reviewing Daredevil: Blood of the Tarantula, Marvel Adventures Iron Man #12, New Avengers #40, New Warriors #11 and X-Men: Legacy #210, one of the hosts decided that a certain book could... mate with itself. But there's only one way to discover which book received the profanity-laced score: download the show.

To celebrate their 11th anniversary in style (or as stylish as these two get), Jenny and Mike got in front of the microphone to discuss a comic book that is very near and dear to their hearts: Preacher! (More specifically, they focused on Gone to Texas, the first volume in the series.)

In this rare Monday episode of Earth-2.net: The Show, Des and Mike discussed five comic books: Caliber #1, Marvel Adventures Fantastic Four #35, Mighty Avengers #12, Ultimate Spider-Man #121 and X-Force #3.

What do My Chemical Romance, teenagers, The Karate Kid, parking violations and The Crow: Wicked Prayer all have in common? Well, nothing really, except that they're all topics of discussion on this episode of Earth-2.net: The Show.

Of the five comic books Des and Mike spoke about this week (Avengers: The Initiative #11, Hercules #1, The Incredible Hercules #116, Iron Man #28 and War is Hell: The First Flight of the Phantom Eagle #2), three were filled with great storytelling, one was painfully awful and one (sort of) split them.

Not all Power Records were stories about superheroes. Some were dark tales of pure dread! Today you'll hear five such tales:

A Story of Dracula, the Wolfman and Frankenstein
The Monster of Frankenstein
Dracula: Terror in the Snow
Man-Thing: Night of the Laughing Dead
The Curse of the Werewolf
