Because of the holidays and resulting difficulties in getting schedules synced and books read, we've got a shorter podcast this week, in which we talk about four books: Detective Comics 838, New X-Men 44, Invincible 46 and The Walking Dead 44. Oh, wait, there was one other reason for the shorter podcast this week - Omar finally got an XBox 360 and Halo 3, so we spent a bit of time playing, and we devote the second half of this podcast to our first impressions of the game.
About Heroes, Episode 80
What a week! With so many great books on the shelves, it's tough to pick only a few to talk about. This episode touches on World War Hulk 5, New Avengers 36, X-Factor 25, Captain Marvel 1, Nova 8, Wolverine 59, Atomic Robo 1-2, Hellboy - Darkness Calls 6, Lobster Johnson 3, BPRD - Killing Ground 4, All-Star Superman 9, Countdown 24, Teen Titans East 1, Nightwing 138, Batman and the Outsiders 1, Green Arrow - Black Canary 2, Booster Gold 4 and Salvation Run 1. Yikes, that's a huge list!
About Heroes, Episode 79
And here's a quick request: if you're so inclined, visit the About Heroes page on iTunes and leave us a review! The two reviews there are both extremely old and extremely short, and it'd be great to replace those with some new (and positive, we hope) reviews.
A lot of books were released last week, but there were a few that stood above the others. In this episode, we hit Uncanny X-Men 492, Astonishing X-Men 23, Robin 168, Supergirl 23, Buffy 8, Umbrella Academy 2, New Avengers Illuminati 5, and Annihilation Conquest 1. There's a wonderful few e-mails in the middle there, too.
UPDATE: Sorry for the iTunes delay, I'm a dummy and forgot to correctly categorize this entry. It should be there now.
About Heroes, Episode 78
Will Messiah Complex finally bring coherency back to the X-titles? We discuss it with a brief X-men history, along with Batman 670, Lord Havok & Countdown, Daredevil Annual 1, Death of the New Gods 2, Justice Society of America 10, and a few miscellanies.
