To Hell and Back
Boil the kettle and crank up the speakers cause this weeks Comic Cast is audio dynamite. We brave the Irish comic-book shelves again to discuss home-bred comics including Greg O’Briens Ghost of a Doubt issue 1, Damien Flood’s Knocked Up Nikki issue 1 and John Cashin’s Still Born issue 3. We talk about Geoff Johns and Richard Donner’s Superman: Last Son in 3D, Japanese cartoonist Tori Miki’s Anywhere But Here, the rather awesome Spiderman Loves Mary-Jane comic, Chris Claremont’s 1980′s series Kitty Pryde and Wolverine and the works of Norwegian cartoonist Jason. And if that weren’t enough, we also squeeze in our thoughts on two Mike Mignola screen outings – HellBoy II: The Golden Army (BIG screen) and the pilot episode of The Amazing Screw-On Head (small screen). Beautiful.

You know its a real Craig rant when he starts comparing people to his sister… totally agree with hellboy 2 being great and the first one being a load of ass. Whats the story with the new Mark millar comic war heroes?

I think War Heroes is meant to be Millar’s pseudo-sequel to Ultimates 1 & 2 but I haven’t read it yet.

thanks a million for the shout out,lads.and no,the F doesen`t stand for Frank!
on another note,War Heroes is actually a decent enough “ultimates set in the real world” type of comic which I really enjoyed compared to some of Miller`s crap.

Screw on head was great, pity they only made a pilot. So marvel apes is out, hopefully you cover it in the next podcast, I know Kirkman wasn’t to impressed by the idea.
As uncool it is to like Mark millar stuff I’m pretty sure he could spit on a piece of paper and I’d spend time looking at it… and enjoy it.
