Episode 32 - Everyone's A Critic!

A few weeks ago Ron was on a panel at the 2D Festival in Derry. Alongside him were the lovely Emma Vieceli, the erudite Gary Erskine, the winsome Leigh Gallagher and the Falstaff-ian Mark Kardwell. It was pretty funny, and well worth a listen. The subject was the internet, namely blogs, Twitter and suchlike, and how these have changed the industry.

Thanks to Wez Nolan for getting the audio to us - it's most appreciated.

Oh, by the way, we've got new podcast artwork courtesy of our very own PJ. It looks pretty spiffy, n'est pas?

Episode 31 - Coming Apart at the Seams

This week we had a yammer about the possible rebirth of the British newsstand comic, the price of digital comics and PJ shows what a big man he is by congratulating Declan Shalvey on the recent news that he'll be working on Thunderbolts for Marvel.

As ever, we'll beg you to tweet/facebook this using the links below, and point out that you can subscribe via iTunes here.

Changes in the podcast posting!

Well, I've just realised that if I post a link to the actual file in the Posterous blog here, it'll create a player. After some tests on my iPhone, I can confirm that despite it being a flash player on the desktop it loads as a Quicktime player on the iPhone, which is really quite clever when you think about it.

So from now on the player will look like the one above. If it would only pull through the meta-data as well I'd be really happy, but beggars can't be choosers!

Out of interest - do you still all want the 'download' link posted? How do you listen to the show? iTunes? The player on the blog? Download direct and play later?

I'm just curious, as it might help me better focus on delivery methods.

Answers in the comments please - I know you rarely DO reply here, but it'd be easier to keep these in a single thread here rather than having to search Twitter or Facebook to see them. 

You do know you can comment here using your Facebook or Twitter logins, don't you?

Episode 30 - 2D or not 2D

 
 

The 2D festival was a couple of weekends ago, but since we're such slouches we're only just getting round to putting it up now. We also get round to reviewing the comics of Tommie Kelly from Something Wonderful and the Road Crew comic

As always you can download the episode directly, or subscribe to the show in iTunes.

Also, here's a really exciting gallery of pics from the weekend! 

(BTW, Tommie Kelly is the last pic, so he is).

Episode 29 - Is This Thing On?

As it turned out, no, it wasn't. Yep, Ron screwed up again and managed to record the show using just his laptop's mic. What a dick.

</object>

We had a chat about some of the TV shows we've been enjoying (or otherwise) in recent years, and then PJ and Ron reviewed Casanova and The Sword.

Episode 28 - Messiah!

It finally happens: PJ is silenced. Not by either Ron or Scott though - nope, it was finally getting his hands on an iPad. 

Needless to say, there is much rejoicing and weeping, and heavy discussion as to how well the iPad functions as a comic-reader, particularly the Comic Zeal comic viewing app.
 
</object>
 
 
We also find some time to review a couple of books, namely Volume 1 of JMS and Olivier Coipel's Thor and Iron Man - Enter the Mandarin by Joe Casey and Eric Canete.
 
We also made a short video about the iPad. And Ron felt vindicated when he remembered the theme-tune from The Mighty Thor, having never heard it since he was a child - a true feat of memory!
 
(what do you mean I've given away who writes these blog-posts?)

Episode 27 - Back On The Horse

Lets try and keep this regular, ok?

 

This week we experimented with having an itinerary. It kind of worked. Sort of.

We chatted about Mark Millar's CLiNT, the frigging iPad (again), new comics related movies and some other stuff.

The aim is to get back on a weekly schedule, so let us know if we're letting you down!

Episode 26 - PJ No More?

A bit of an odd one this week...

 
 
Ron's mate Graham swings by to interview PJ and Scott for something or other. PJ swiftly goes AWOL, but not without first giving us the skinny on British Comics Industry awards.
 
Then we have a bit of a chat about the Eisners, Greg Rucka and Queen & Country. Then it all ends.
 
If you'd like to nominate anyone (cough) for an Eagle Award, you can do it here. Before May 9th. Which is TOMORROW!
