Nick sends us some of the e-mails that he received from the contest, which start us on a discussion of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics, past and present. We talk about X-Men 207 and Messiah Complex, Countdown 14, Blue Beetle 23, Astonishing X-Men 25, Amazing Spider-Man 548, Young Avengers: Patriot, and Transformers Spotlight: Blaster.
This week, in another awe-inspiring episode of About Heroes, we discuss Spider-Man's Brand New Day, X-Men's Messiah Complex, Wolverine Origins 21, Countdown 15, Cable & Deadpool 49, Booster Gold 6 (from whence comes the title of this episode), The Sword 4 & other Luna brothers comics, Catwoman 75 and Justice League of America 17. We also talk a bit about Shannon Wheeler's new work, "Screw Heaven, When I Die, I'm Going to Mars," and we talk briefly about the passing of Heath Ledger.
This week, Nick announces his contest winners, and we talk about some books: Amazing Spider-Man 546, Wolverine 61, Nova 10, Salvation Run 3, Green Lantern Corps 20, Green Arrow - Black Canary 4, X-Factor 27, Mighty Avengers 7, Hulk 1, The Goon 20, and Countdown week 36.
It was a slow week, so we've got a bit of a shorter episode. We talk a little bit more about One More Day, and then on to things we actually enjoyed: Detective Comics 840, Countdown 17, Messiah Complex and Uncanny X-Men 494, Teen Titans - Year One 1, The End League 1, Umbrella Academy and Lobster Johnson.
The new year brings us the conclusion of One More Day, and we get everyone in to talk about it! We also read some e-mail and talk about the Resurrection of Ra's Al Ghul, Batman 672, Justice League of America 16, Messiah Complex, Teen Titans 54, Immortal Iron Fist, and the new Transformers Animated series.
Also, I'm trying out a new naming scheme with this episode, so those of you with tiny-screened players won't have to guess which episode you're about to listen to. We'll see how iTunes deals with it.
