Really, what’s more in keeping with the Easter season than a podcast with Aron, Paul, Tim and Wayne talking about comics? Whether you’re celebrating the resurrection of the living God or enjoying an off-the-hook pagan fertility ritual, clearly this is the podcast for you.

If you’ve listened to this week’s episode of Funnybooks, you know that Aron and I really dug the Marvel one-shot Captain America: The Fighting Avenger, from writer Brian Clevinger (Atomic Robo) and artist Gurihiru.

Let’s face it. This was not the most spectacular week in comics. With a few noteworthy exceptions, it’s a rather lackluster stack of books. That’s probably the reason we spend so much time in this episode talking about movies such as SUCKER PUNCH and GREEN LANTERN, Back Seat Box Office and Nanna. Join Aron, Paul, […]

Still, I’ve got high hopes for the title, including an arc that seems like it’ll involve “Age of Apocalypse” characters, followed by something Marvel released a teaser for late last week…The Dark […]

So while Aron, Tim, Wayne and Andrew wait for Charlie Sheen to dial in, we chat about all manner of subjects. For instance we mourn the loss of comics and animation luminary Dwayne McDuffie, Tim applies some savage […]
