iFanboy - Comic Books
iFanboy
The iFanboy.com Comic Book Podcast is a weekly talk show all about the best new current comic book releases. Lifelong friends, Conor Kilpatrick and Josh Flanagan talk about what they loved and (sometimes) hated in the current weekly books, from publishers like Marvel, DC, Image Comics, Dark Horse Comics, BOOM! Studios, IDW, Aftershock, Valiant, and more. The aim is to have a fun time, some laughs, but to also really understand what makes comic books work and what doesn’t, and trying to understand the craft of this great, often under appreciated art form. Sometimes they agree, and sometimes… they don’t. With decades of experience talking about comics, interacting with comic book professionals, this is all about the love of an art form. If the names Brian Michael Bendis, Amanda Conner, Geoff Johns, Gene Luen Yang, Donny Cates, Jason Aaron, Kelly Thompson, David Marquez, Kelly Sue de Connick, Kieron Gillen, Charles Soule, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Scott Snyder, Tom King, Mitch Gerads, Esad Ribic, Rick Remender, Nick Spencer, John Ridley, Skottie Young, Chip Zdarsky, Jöelle Jones, David F. Walker, Grant Morrison, and Darwyn Cooke get you excited, then this is the place for you. This podcast is so good, you don’t even need to read comic books or graphic novels to enjoy it, but it’s a lot better if you do.

Talksplode #20 with Brian Wood writer of Demo, DMZ, Northlanders and DV8
February 4, 2010 - Brian Wood is stranger to the iFanboy Talksplode, but we've never had more to talk about than what Brian's got going on this month. With Demo #1 by Wood and artist Becky Cloonan coming out in comic stores yesterday, 6 years after volume 1 starts, and DMZ #50 coming out next week with an all star collection of artists, and Northlanders #25 later this month continuing the best arc of the series yet AND DV8 #1 finally coming out in April, Brian's been a busy guy. On top of all that, he also has been working on getting the next volume of the New York Four rolling with Ryan Kelly, so we're flattered that he found an hour to chat with us about his books Learn more about your ad choices.

iFanboy.com Pick of the Week #219 - Detective Comics #861
January 31, 2010 - Something was in the air this week, maybe it was the crap ton of comics that came out this week, that lead Josh to pick Detective Comics #861 as the pick, and Ron and Conor to go a little insane on the show this week. And perhaps the dorkiest joke ever made occurred. All in all, a good time when it comes to talkin' comics while wearing an ascot and Richard Dreyfuss makes an appearance.
