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.

Booksplode #8 - Batman: The Dark Knight Strikes Again
Booksplode strikes back with a vengeance as Paul Montgomery, Josh Flanagan and Jeff Reid dissect the Dadaist oddity that is Frank Miller and Lynn Varley's Batman: The Dark Knight Strikes Again. Published 15 years after the landmark mini-series Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, this three-issue sequel was a notorious departure in form and lucidity. We're not going to claim to understand it entirely, but one of us with glasses might hail it one of the best and most important works of all time. It's Josh. He kind of says that.

iFanboy.com Pick of the Week #379 - East of West #1
Though he claimed last week he wouldn't be here, Conor Kilpatrick braves Death, War, Conquest and Famine to talk comics with fellow desperadoes Paul Montgomery and Josh Flanagan. This week, Paul pauses Bioshock Infinite just long enough to name a pale horse in the Pick of the Week race and make some dubious suggestions about iFanboy guerrilla marketing. Meanwhile, Conor sees Hitlers were there aren't any and Josh remains fixated on the anachronism of the stop/pause conundrum. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
