Episode 45 - Green Lantern Potpourri Apr 03, 2013

Show notes

Listeners of the Podcast of Oa join us for episode 45 in a Google Hangout where we talk about the finale episode of Green Lantern: The Animated Series, "Dark Matter". And as happens whenever a group of fans get together the conversation shifts between the series, the comics and the Green Lantern motion picture. Near the end of the show we are joined by Jared Aiosa, owner of Heroes You Mom Threw Out Comics and we talk about comics in general, the impact of digital comics and the good, the bad and the ugly about comic book stores. Please note that the audio quality fluctuates based on the connections between the particpants and background noise, so there are some irregularities in the audio of the conversation which cannot be avoided.

Episode 41 - The Wrath of the Seafoam Lantern! Jan 31, 2013

Show notes

Co-hosts Bill Giancoli and Myron Rumsey are back with another episode of the Podcast of Oa and this one is guaranteed to be a little different than the rest. In episode 41 we talk about the sweet sixteen issues of Green Lantern, Green Lantern Corps and Green Lantern: New Guardians plus we touch briefly on the first issue of Keith Giffen’s new Threshold series that features a Larfleeze backup story.

Green Lantern: The Animated Series takes center stage with conversation about Sinestro’s debut in the animated universe and the series defining moment in “Loss”. This episode was recorded on the day that the Cartoon Network revealed their plans not to renew the show and you can witness Myron’s completely uncensored feelings about the situation as he unleashes the wrath of the Seafoam Lantern - donning a Red Lantern ring in what is assuredly not a “safe for work” venting where nothing is safe from his rage!
