Season 0, Episode 6: Kieron Gillen Evangelion

7/29/2015

It's back issue time! Due to computer issues, we lost the original edit of our sixth episode, featuring the work of Kieron Gillen, but our favorite Doctor Who actre...oh, that's not her? Oh, him! That guy, yea! We talk about four Kieron Gillen books, three of which he collaborated on with Jamie Mckelvie. We talk about "Phonogram", "Uber", "Young Avengers", "Wicked & Divine", and then Anthony goes off-script with Kieron Gileen's "Darth Vader". Due to the late posting and limited number of comics that week, we don't talk about any first issues or graphic novels, but take some time to do a dramatic reading of Thors #2.

Hey, did you see that Guardians Of The Galaxy movie last year? Have you still not delved into the comic books? Well, since Marvel has released Guardian Of Knowhere #1, we decided to read far too many books featuring various versions of The Guardians Of The Galaxy. And, as we have every week so far, we look at a bunch of #1 issues and debate whether we'll be continuing to follow the series. Plus, we talk about graphic novels we haven't even read yet!
