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.

Pick of the Week #570 – The Flintstones #8 Feb 05, 2017

Show notes

Some Chaykin talk, some gentle ribbing, Mark Wahlberg, and plenty of dislikes to go around, but some actual thoughtful talk about comics, somewhere in the middle. Ron, Conor, and Josh are back in the seats, and we’re almost on point this week.

Special Edition – Powerless Feb 03, 2017

Show notes

Who would have thought we'd ever see a sitcom based in the DC Comics Universe? Well, here we are. Possibly the apex of the superhero media frenzy, or just another chapter. Either way, Conor Kilpatrick and Ron Richards try and make sense of this madness.

Special Edition – Riverdale Jan 28, 2017

Show notes

It’s time to go to a place where things are simper, quieter. Conor Kilpatrick and Ron Richards take a trip to Riverdale, home of Archie, Betty, Veronica, Jughead and the gang where there’s also murder, lesbian kisses, and Luke Perry. The CW’s latest comic book themed show makes a big impression with it’s first episode and we analyze it and argue about where Riverdale actually is.

It’s back! Thanks to our awesome Patrons, it’s the return of the Booksplode! What’s a Booksplode you might ask?

This month we are reviewing Ad House Books’ Russian Olive To Red King from writer Kathryn Immonen and artist Stuart Immonen. Running Time: 00:21:15 Music: “King of Broken Hearts” Ringo Starr

Pick of the Week #568 – Motor Girl #3 Jan 22, 2017

Show notes

Since there was nothing else of any importance going on in the world this week, Josh Flanagan, Ron Richards, and Conor Kilpatrick figured they might as well talk about some comic books.

Pick of the Week #567 – Southern Bastards #16 Jan 15, 2017

Show notes

Say that our podcast is Electro and… It’ll make sense when you listen. Maybe not, actually. Ron, Josh and Conor are back with some comics that were chosen by us to read, and others that were chosen by people who specifically wanted to punish us. But their vindictive voting cannot stem the tide of a good time talking about comics and rating (rating) things, plus TR Talk. Why hasn’t Ron watched Friday Night Lights?

Show notes
