iFanboy – Comic Books — Arts
iFanboy – Comic Books

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.

iFanboy.com Pick of the Week #371 – Punisher War Zone #4 Feb 03, 2013

Show notes

February 3, 2013 – It’s all new, but it’s just the same. Josh and Conor are joined by their new permanent co-host, who has brought more television metaphors than any same man would know what to do with. We all read and talk about a lot of Punisher, and are thrown off by all the changes Paul brings in with his clipboard and red pen. Boss Nass is the first thing to go.

iFanboy.com Special Edition Podcast - Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part Two Jan 31, 2013

Show notes

January 31, 2013 - With Professor Haupt off performing meatball surgery in a dubious tenement, 75% of the iFanboy Animation Brain Trust returns for the second half of Warner Bros.’ Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. Boasting two of the most savage and iconic death matches in comic history, this is likely the pinnacle of ambition for Timm and his team. You might be shocked at just much survived the translation from page to screen, from swastika bosoms to Dutch himself, but just how important is that faithful hand? As with the first half, Conor, Paul and Chris are somewhat divided in their verdict, but some opinions just may actually have shifted in the intermission. Plus! Just how terrifying is Michael Emerson’s Joker? Should Clark button up that blouse when handling bald eagles? Just how stoked are we for upcoming outings Superman: Unbound and Flashpoint? What iconic stories remain untapped but deserving of the animated treatment?

Show notes

January 27, 2013 – It’s Ron’s last Pick of the Week podcast as he makes his exit from iFanboy to go to the publishing side of comics at Image Comics, so the guys thought it would be a good time to a live broadcast of the podcast. And you know what that means? Extra long podcast filled with booze, some arguing and a little bit of emotion. You’ll want to listen to this whole thing as it’s filled with that entertaining bit that iFanboy has brought you for the past 7 years. Oh, and stick with it through the end for some added bonus material.
