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 #69 – Mark Russell Oct 20, 2016

Show notes

Thanks to iFanboy patrons, it’s Talksplode time. When we read Prez, we were impressed, and when, shockingly, The Flintstones series was discovered to be one of the best and smartest new comics from DC, we had to find out who this Mark Russell was. So we asked him. Working with cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, Russell released God Is Disappointed in You, and Apochrypha Now from Top Shelf, as well as various other freelance writing, he then found himself with an opportunity to write Prez for DC Comics. We talk with him about that, and bringing that same sensibility to the licensed property of The Flintstones.

Pick of the Week #554 – Power Man and Iron Fist #8 Sep 25, 2016

Things get out of control, but not until the VERY end, so you’re going to want to hang in there for this extended episode of the Pick of the Week podcast. Josh is certain about his pick, but Ron makes an unprecedented argument and Conor’s right behind him. Plus, the source of the out of controlness? G.I. Joe of course. It’s always G.I. Joe.
