Longbox Review

Travis returns to the podcast just in time for us to discuss the news coming out of the 2012 New York Comic Con (as of Sunday morning of the con).

Thanks for listening!

After returning from my trip to Seattle, WA, and Portland, OR, I first talk about my visit to Zanadu Comics, and then I discuss four titles that I've read recently (at the 14:45 mark):

• Star Trek #13
• Aquaman #0
• Batman, Inc. #0
• Batman: The Dark Knight #0

Finally, I rant a bit about arguments people have over Twitter (36:04).

Thanks for listening!

I just talk about some comics. Specifically, I discuss the following DC New 52 family of titles:

Welcome to part two of my conversation with Mr. Peter Rios. We spend the majority of the episode talking about New Teen Titans: Games (warning: spoilers) and our love of the New Teen Titans in general. Near the end, Peter talks about the fundraiser to send Julian Lytle to Morrisoncon, and then Peter discusses what’s coming next month from him. It’s not to be missed!

Peter made my weekend by cohosting the show with me, and I can’t thank him enough.

Thanks for listening!

On the big show today is part one of a conversation I had with Peter Rios. If you don't know who Peter is, he is a founding member of the Comic Geek Speak podcast and overall comics aficionado. Peter was very gracious to spend over four hours (!) talking with me about a plethora of topics (see below), part of which was our talk about Terry Moore's fantastic series, Rachel Rising.

• Intro
• 2:30 Podcasting discussion
• 12:45 Theatre talk
• 36:00 Comic talk, featuring the Denver Comic Con, the New 52, Before Watchmen, the DC Nation shorts (and upcoming Teen Titans Go! animated series) & summer superhero movie talk.
• 1:28:55 Rachel Rising discussion (warning: spoilers!)

I had a wonderful time talking with Peter, and I hope you enjoy it too. Stay tuned for the next episode where Peter and I talk about New Teen Titans: Games (and Peter makes an announcement!).

Thanks for listening!

Here’s my look through the June Previews catalog for items shipping in August 2012 and beyond!

After a couple of unsuccessful attempts to do this particular episode, here finally is the LBR podcast discussion, with a special guest, about The Avengers movie. We still encountered technical issues, however (26 is 13 twice, so double the bad luck?!), so apologies ahead of time for that.

Thanks for listening!
