Great show guys! Definitely gonna pick up GI Joe Cobra at some point. RE: Spider-man: I really did not like this issue. I can see myself liking the art on something creator-owned or deliberately different, but I didn't think it was too appropriate for this. Also, yeah, not a Deadpool fan. I know you guys essentially covered this yourself, but I don't think the Punisher's age really...

Kate Beaton is awesome! She fully deserves the rise in popularity she has gotten over the past year or so. One of my favourite webcomics also and everyone should read it.

I feel absolutely stupid for asking this but: Where do I know Jean Paul Leon's name from? I know I recognise it and I know I liked his work in something, but what has he done recently? the answer may determine whether I go back and get that Black Widow book or not...

Nice work everyone! Some of the kids are uber-cute, and what is cooler than Boba Fett playing guitar? Nothing, that's what. Apologies for my costume, I spent weeks preparing it and it still turned out, um, not that great. Emma (my girlfriend)'s turned out better I think. Happy Halloween! I have an idea for next year already.

I've always been interested in Green Lantern, but have never known where to actually start. If only the ifanboys could give us an answer :(

Very light week on the Marvel/DC side, but I have a decent amount of "indie" stuff to look forward to. Chew!* Sugarshock! Underground! Stuff of legend! Cowboy Ninja Viking! Ex Machina! Last Resort! This should be a good week! Still debating whether to pick up Scalped in trades as well as issues, as a few friends have started reading it and it's easier to lend out trades. I only nee...

It's funny, I only subscribed to Around Comics the other week, like literally the top one on my iTunes feed when I subscribed was "we'll be taking a short break..." #fail This podcast was my first one as a member! So instead of the shame I usually feel near the end, I felt pride! Ergo, become a member.

I like that that trailer skipped over World War Hulk. Also: it pretty much says nothing. But that's okay I guess, it's gonna get a lot of people pumped up. Unless the actual plot interests me, I'm gonna sit this one out. No point in moaning about "event fatigue" and then buying every event, right?

Stupid moment: listening to this podcast on the train, I got to the bit where the guys were about to announce the winner of the Top Shelf pack thing. "Oh shit!" thought I, "I forgot to sign up for membership for this!" ...at which point I paused the podcast before the winner was announced so I could get home and sign up before I listened to the rest. I think my reasoning...
