3399705-8648278332-winte

It’s time for some spoilerific thoughts and opinions on Captain America: the Winter Soldier and the last two episodes (and the season so far) of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Brent and Ian are joined by Rick Gordon of The Pop Cult Online Power Hour and Brandon Christopher as we dissect the movie as a whole, discuss what we liked ad the few things that could have been better, character building moments, what should happen in future movies and more. Plus, some Arrow, King of the Nerds, some stuff on Marvel’s Netflix series and more via conversation meandering. And stay tuned til the end, as both Brandon and I have comments on recent geek controversies including Janette Asselin’s comments on the Teen Titans #1 cover and the not so positive response by the dregs of society, the removal of women’s bathrooms at PAX East, and the overuse and subsequent loss of meaning of words like “fridging” and “problematic”. Thumbs up, soldier!

Comic Timing – Episode 152

According to Brent, this episode is titled, “The Back-Up Plan: The All Bitching Episode.” Although we do a lot more than just bitch, I promise. Brent and I are joined by Mr. Raphael Soohoo as we discuss The Flash’s new TV outfit, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the season so far (including the Sif episode), The Lego Movie, Brent’s review of Justice League: War, the official cancellation of Beware The Batman!, the announcement of the Arkham Knight game, my thoughts on Fables: The Worlf Among Us, and plenty more. We also review some comics, including Forever Evil #6, Superman/Wonder Woman #6 both She-Hulk and Ms. Marvel #1, Secret Avengers, Image Comics’ Zero and some other stuff here and there.

As a warning, there was a chirping noise that kept recurring throughout the recording. We couldn’t trace the source, so it’s there throughout. I did my best to get rid of it whenever possible, but it’s still there occasionally. Shouldn’t be too loud or annoying, I swear! Also, next week we should be joined by Sean and Jim of Raging Bullets, as due to power outages we had to push their episode back a week. So barring any other weird weather, it shall be done!
