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.

We talk through a lot of great comics, run the Picks of the Week by the numbers, and then if you’re not a Band of Brothers fan, you might want to skip the end bit. We don’t recommend this course of action. It’s the last regular show of the year!

iFanboy Pick of the Week #411 - Amazing X-Men #1 Nov 10, 2013

Show notes

After the 5th week last week, comics are back this week, and we're here to talk about fun, and the culmination of Stan Lee's fantasy. Not that one. We're not even sick of talking about new, excellent Marvel #1 issues, so off we go. Josh will try very hard to get on topic, with little success.

To me, Mjölnir! For Asgard! Conor Kilpatrick and Paul Montgomery assemble to discuss Thor: The Dark World! How does the sequel stack up to Thor's thunderous big screen debut in 2011? There are laughs! There are tears! Dudes get hit in the face with hammers! All of that plus just what to make of that mid-credits sequence and what does it mean for the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe?

Show notes

The culmination of Mike Costa's "Arms of Doctor Octopus" caper takes the gold in a typically oddball fifth week of comics. Josh Flanagan, Paul Montgomery and Conor Kilpatrick wholeheartedly embrace that pick as well as November's Book of the Month selection, The Fifth Beatle, about the Fab Four's enigmatic manager Brian Epstein. All that and more on this week's furry little show.
