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.

Talksplode #37 with Matt Fraction of Fear Itself, Uncanny X-Men + Casanova Apr 07, 2011

Show notes

April 7, 2011 - With the release of the mega event, Fear Itself, from Marvel Comics, we thought it would be a good time to chat with writer Matt Fraction. Fraction tells us what the approach to Fear Itself has been, how he's handling the event status and yet making it a managable, contained story, and what the fan reaction to the book is so far. We also get a tease of what's to come in his upcoming The Mighty Thor. In addition to Fear Itself and Thor, we talk a bit about the close of Fraction's run on Uncanny X-Men and he feels he did on the title and what's to come for Marvel's mutants. On the creator side of things, we get an update on the progress of Casanova and what Fraction's thoughts are around creator owned work vs. work for publishers like Marvel.

Show notes

March 13, 2011 - Conor and Ron make their triumphant return after Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle, much to Josh's chagrin. To make matters worse, they're all together in Brooklyn and Josh and Conor get awkwardly intimate as they share a mic. Good thing it was a great week for comics, which made the sexual tension much easier to deal with.
