Comic Timing – Episode 40: 22 Pages #3

Our third 22 Pages review episode is here! Chris Chavez, otherwise known as Equinox on the CGS forums, returns for the first time in a while, along with Brent Kossina to discuss Nova #1 and Nova #2. The series has surprised all three of us so far, so listen in tot he episode to see what kind of surprise it left us with! Hint: we liked a lot of it.

There are spoilers ahead for both issues of Nova, so if you have not read them and would rather not be spoiled, come on back once you’ve read the issues to hear our take on them. As always, you can e-mail the show over at comictiming@gmail.com, and please vote for us on Podcast Alley and Digg us on Digg.Com.

We will be back next week with our in depth review of Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, with a whole bunch of bloopers at the end that have very little to do with the topic that might be more interesting than the episode itself. Good times!

Enjoy the show, and thanks as always for downloading!

Comic Timing Syndication: The Quarter Bin – Episode 5

This episode originally aired as The Quarter Bin – Episode 5. Here, Brandon Christopher, alias The Indigo Fire on the forums, has me on to discuss the world of Anime and manga. Make sure to check out other episode of The Quarter Bin over at his web site.

Enjoy the episode, and let us know what you think of the syndicated show!

Comic Timing – Episode 39: Part 2

Ready for the rest of 52? We have more than an hour and forty minutes of content here, so I certainly hope so! John Mayo and David D. are here to discuss the Everyman Project, the ending of 52, spin-offs we would and would not like to see, and we give our initial impressions on the first two issues of Countdown. It took a lot of time to get there, but we have covered 52 to the best of our ability, and I think it turned out fantastic. Big thanks to John and David for being a part of this, and I hope to get them back in the future for a Countdown episode or two.

Our next episode will feature the long awaited 22 Pages of Nova #1, with discussion of Nova #2 as well. Chris Chavez (Equinox), and Brent Kossina join me for that, so stay tuned for more great conversation!

Episode 38 of Comic Timing is here! Wayne Cordova from The Radio Wayne Podcast, and John Mayo from The Mayo Report and The Comic Book Page Podcast join in for a rousing discussion of religion in comics.

Comic Timing – Episode 36: Part 1

Independent Comics! There are plenty of them, with plenty of different genres out there. Here on Episode 36, I will try my best to get the creator perspective on the current state of independent comics, while hopefully spreading the word on their work. In Episode 36 Part 1, I am joined by Dave Wachter of the fantastic indie book, Scar Tissue. Dave is quite the guy, and has plenty to say, so I do hope you enjoy it all and check out his book!

In Episode 36 Parts 2 and 3, I will be joined by Steve Bryant, who finally managed to record an interview! Yup, the curse has been broken. You know I kid, Steve. Anyway, that will come out over the course of the next week or so. Good times, good stuff for all! Or something like that.

Update on upcoming shows.

Hey guys. Just a quick update on where the show is headed the next few episodes. I have been sick the past few days, so I still have not finished editing Episode 36 Part 1. Episode 36 will be three parts. Part 1 is my interview and discussion with Scar Tissue creator, Steve Wachter. Parts 2 and 3 are with Steve Bryant. I will try to get Part 1 out as soon as possible, once I feel up to editing again. So once more, there is plenty of content to come, and thanks for your patience!
