iFanboy - Comic Books

A man, not a particularly special man, but a man nonetheless, stands (sits) alone. He faces the tribulation, the adversity, the challenge of carrying on, as he will, without the support of others. Will there be tragedy? Will he overcome? With all that hangs in the balance, can he rise? Can he meet the requirements or find himself wanting?-OR-Josh talks by and to himself for an hour.Note: Time codes are subject to change depending on dynamic ad insertion by the distributor.Running Time: 01:02:41Pick of the Week:00:02:51 - The Ambassadors #2Comics:00:10:18 - WildC.A.T.s #600:14:00 - Guardians of the Galaxy #18100:18:40 - Eight Billion Genies #800:28:58 - Fantastic Four #69900:31:28 - Predator #200:33:37 - Know Your Station #500:35:22 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Usagi Yojimbo: Wherewhen #1Patron Pick:00:39:09 - The Great British Bump-Off #1Patron Thanks:00:44:47 - Pat GeorgeAudience Question:00:48:35 - Jonathan wonders how one can learn more about the Golden Age of comics, prior to the next Booksplode.00:52:01 - Mike from Buffalo wonders what it's gonna take for comics to throw it all away and start back with the basics, just like they did after the boom/crash of the 90s.Brought To You By:• iFanboy Patrons - Become one today for as little as $3/month!
