Zone 4

The crew returns with another episode of your favorite Friday Night Delight!

First up, the guys discuss the latest episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Then, as they go into headlines, they talk about Image Publisher Eric Stephenson's speech at the ComicsPro Retailer gathering, which sidetracks into a great discussion on gimmicks and the industry as a whole.

From there, it's more headlines, including castings, trailers and other comic news.

For Topic Time, the guys review two new #1 issues in Mark Millar's Starlight from Image Comics, and Greg Rucka's The Veil from Dark Horse.

Finally, the guys wrap things up with some announcements.

Chiditorad:

Nerds and nerd-friends! The Chicago Nerd Social Club is proud to be participating in Chiditarod Chicago this Saturday by running the checkpoint station at Emporium Arcade Bar! Chiditarod is now in its 9th year of causing creative mayhem for a good cause: raising funds to benefit local organizations fighting hunger, and raising food donations for the Greater Chicago Food Depository. Last year the Chiditarod Foundation awarded $20K in grant money to organizations fighting hunger, and the event raised over 17K lbs of food and over $34K in funds. If you're interested in helping us smash those records, there are two ways you can do so: 1) Donate funds via our First Giving link - each checkpoint team is doing their part to raise funds for the Chiditarod Foundation. Help us show Chiditarod just how awesome the nerdy, geek community is - whether you're a Chicagoan or from out of town, we'd love to have your support in any amount you are able to give. http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/ChicagoNerdSocialClub/chiditarod-2014 2) Donate food to the checkpoint! Emporium will have a food donation collection box at the bar through the race this Saturday! For a list of what would help the GCFD, go here: http://www.chiditarod.org/race-day-logistics/ And if you're interested in checking out the race, spectators are welcome at the starting line and you can come visit us at Emporium, where we'll be staffing our checkpoint in Star Wars cosplay, with fun games for racers and the ORIGINAL trilogy screening at the bar. Also, Emporium will be carrying a SPECIAL LIMITED BREW from Illuminated Brew Works: ChiditaRye - a dry French Rye Saison, so come on down and try it! Bonus: Emporium is donating a portion of the day's profits to the event! Learn more at www.chiditarod.org.

It's "New Classic" as Cary Kelley and Frank Raynor make their official debut as full co-hosts along with John and Brant. Technical issues abound, just like classic Zone 4, and hilarity ensues. It's a touch of RaynMan, free-flowing classic Zone 4, and our usual brand of insanity!

We discuss the Superbowl commercials, including the trailers for Amazing Spider-Man 2, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and Transformers: Age of Extinction. And we break down a couple of lists we came across ranking the X-Men and Justice League.

Finally, the guys wrap things up with some announcements.
