Rock vs. the Army of the Dead #1, The Smurfs: Olympic Special, The Ultimates Vol 5 #1, White Boat #1, William of Newbury #1  Time for a big comic book catch-up! Jimmy reviews all of these comics solo this week. Mostly recent ones but he also checks out one from a couple of years ago. He's thinking of doing a special on comics in his massive "unread" pile.

Episode 1512 - A Bunch of Comic Book Reviews!

Reviews: The Acolyte, Doctor Who, Interview w/ the Vampire s2 premiere, My Adventures w/ Superman s2 premiere, X-Men '97 season finale, Atlas, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, If, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, South Park: The End of Obesity  Hope you enjoyed all of the TCAF coverage! Now it's time for a big (and long) TV/film review catch-up episode. No news or Top 3. Jimmy is finally using the new recorder so there may be some kinks to work out still. He also started by saying the wrong episode number. So please disregard "Episode 1510" as it's clearly episode 1511. Sigh. Thanks to reviewers Melissa (on double duty), David, Jeff, Therese and Ricky. Always such insightful and thought provoking reviews. Hope you enjoy! If you saw anything we reviewed, please send your thoughts our way. Also, get a hold of us!  Thanks for listening!
