We’re recording the podcast on Monday, so it’s going to be a couple of days late, due to not existing yet.

One of us hasn’t received any comics for two weeks, and there has been very little new or exciting out in the past fortnight, so for a bit of a break from the norm we’ve got our usual news round-up (looking at the sad loss of Gene Colan, the launch of Avenging Spider-Man, DC’s digital plans and the Green Lantern movie’s performance) followed by a full episode’s worth of rumination on (largely) comics-related topics suggested by our followers on Twitter. Listen! to our views on superheroes in skirts. Hear! our thoughts on this summer’s comics-related movies. Hark! at us getting the name of The DFC wrong. All this plus Fat Alfred and the Cosby Kids, a tiny little evil moustache and Captain Genocide.

September is coming, and with it 52 new DC first issues. We’ve got a round-up of all 52, as well as a sprint through the rest of the solicitations, a look at Frank Miller’s Holy Terror, some chat on the opening of the Spider-Man musical and discussion of the impending X-Men relaunch. We’ve also got reviews of 15 Love, Graveyard of Empires and Kirby Genesis, and the Official Handbook of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe makes a love connection. All this plus a selection of guest ales, Millie Collins’s nephew Millie Collins and the influence of Halley’s Comet on Marvel’s publishing schedules.

Lots and lots of chat on the DC announcements this time round, as well as a few words on Dark Horse’s digital incentives and Valiant’s return. We’ve also got reviews of Criminal: Last Of The Innocent, Secret Seven and 50 Girls 50 and the Official Handbook of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe is a beautiful and unique snowflake. All this plus the Amazing Flying Buccelato Brothers, a song from the Lion King, Cockney Frank Cho and Alistair (Aged 4).

Judgement Day is (apparently) upon us, so we’re getting a last-minute look in at the comics news of the past few weeks, including the Tr!ckster project and the return of Kramer’s Ergot, as well as a round-up of solicitations for August. We also review Flashpoint, Alpha Flight and Nonplayer, and the Official Handbook of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe is all about the big issues. All this plus the amazing Man-Man, Jamie Oliver’s favourite comics writer and the sodding Skrulls.

We’re back on schedule with a brand new podcast, with talk about Free Comic Book Day, the release of the Thor movie and Marvel’s future filmic plans, Rise of Arsenal‘s surprising PRISM award win, Mike Cotton leaving Wizard, Tokyopop’s rights issues and the Ultimate line relaunch. We’ve also got reviews of Moon Knight, Gladstone’s School for World Conquerors and Spontaneous, and the Official Handbook of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe hits a high note.  All this plus The Fastest and the Furiousestest, Kate Moss’s crimefighting career and the power of a turban.

We’re back, with discussion of Tokyopop’s closedown, Dark Horse’s layoffs, Marvel and Boom!’s licensing interactions and Greg Capullo’s move to the Bat-books. There are also reviews of Journey Into Mystery, Butcher Baker and Super Dinosaur and the Official Handbook of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe goes futuristic (or possibly retro). All this plus a time-travelling nipple, an imaginary moustache and Sherlock Holmes 2099.

It’s Saturday evening, and it’s podcast time. We’re talking about the new Daredevil and Punisher creative teams, Bendis and Bagley’s Brilliant, Starbucks’ partnership with Marvel and Chew being picked up by Showtime. We’ve also got reviews of Xombi, FF and Green Lantern and the Official Handbook of the Official Handbook rebrands. All this plus Thor taking a paternity test, Millie the Model completists and Russian doll robots.

Right, now that we finally have the site back up (thanks, possibly, Dreamhost!) we can get this show on the road. We’ve got a new episode of the podcast for you, where we’re talking about Julie Taymor’s exit from the Spider-Man musical, Robert Kirkman and Rob Liefeld’s new book, Jeff Smith’s Rasl heading to Hollywood and Roger Langridge’s Muppet Show languishing in Limbo. We’ve also got reviews of Sigil, Venom and… erm… Sarah Palin vs the World, and the Official Handbook of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe gets square eyes. All this plus cardboard trees, waggly tongue dribble action and learning Greek on an aeroplane.

The best laid plans, etc. Having had a Car Incident (waiting for the nice men to come and tow us at the moment) it’s highly unlikely that we’ll be able to coordinate recording this evening. Once we know when we’ll be able to record, we’ll let you know.
