About Heroes

You called Joshiebear? UGH!

;)

Great podcast everybody. Cool to hear from you, too, Josh! Nick and Omar, incidentally, the show you guys were describing was actually called "Voyagers". And that was a cool show, Omar, I agree. I was lucky enough to catch it when it first came on in 1982. (R.I.P. Jon-Erik Hexum...)

Melanie and Josh, I agree with your feelings on "One More Day #2", but something each of you said made me look at the story in a different light, that actually has his behavior make more sense than I realized. I'll go into more detail on my email about this podcast. (By the way, Omar, your comment about Aunt May on the cover of Issue 2...though it was hilarious, buddy, I gotta tell ya, it was wrong on so many levels! LOL!)

Chris and Dan, you guys are geniuses! Tony Stark assassinated JFK? My God, of course, it all totally makes sense! Do you realize you two could have saved me three years of research? Lee Harvey Oswald wasn't a patsy, he was a SKRULL! :)

Thanks, Ray.

Brent, you're next buddy.

I wonder how many podcasts have me laughing before everyone else.?

Great podcast boys and girl! I was really happy to hear about how to send in reviews, I was wondering about that.

I'm glad you guys talked about the new Cap and his costume. I'm going to take this oppertunity to unload my thoughts on that.
When I first saw the picture on Marvel.com, I was scared because I thought that they were ressurecting Steve. But I think it's a great move to go ahead and bring in a New Captain America and I hope it sticks. The fact that the costume isn't TOO different from the previous one is nice because that way people won't have to deal with to much changs, thus give way to hating it and wanting the old one back. I like the design of it too, the gun and knife are a nice touch since it's a new guy; I mean, as long as he still has a shield.
I really hope they don't bring Rogers back. I loved the character, but this is a great oppertunity for Marvel to take one of those much needed risks that you guys have talked about. Also, it's a good story really. The people who I've talked to like the idea of the torch being passed to continue the legacy. So I'm all for the new Cap and I really, really hope that in 50 years I see this same guy in this same costume on shelves.
My only dissapointment is that I don't think that it's going to be Frank Castle and I thought that would be really cool. Millar even said that was what he intended at the finale of Civil War when he picked up the mask. Yeah, that's right, I mentioned Civil War! At the least I'm glad we got the "Going Out West" arc with him in a Cap-esque costume.

Hope that wasn't too long. What does everyone else think?

Chris aka Mr. McPeaksalot, you are slowly making me deaf, lol.

Hey everybody,

I just wanted to leave a quick note about the podcast, since you still have my really long email from last episode. lol

Ray already hit on "Voyagers!", except to mention that it is currently out on DVD. And I WILL get someone to do a "Voyagers!" sequel comic!

And I'm reserving judgement about the new Captain America costume until I see it in action. It seems less a "passing the torch" moment and more like a "pushing the hype" moment right now.

My only real comment was why did I get dissed by Josh? What the hell was that about? Imitation is the sincerest form of comedy. Jeez, a guy lives out in California and next thing you know he gets all Simon Cowell on my ass!

I guess it's a good thing I didn't do my opera version of a retelling of that great American classic "Maximum Security".

Josh is English?

Good thing you explained what you were talking about Nick I didn't know what a Peaksalot was, I thought I was either a pokemon or a Doctor from Grey's Anatomy...zing pop culture referance...bang crappy Japanese anime!
