With Halloween fast approaching it’s only fitting that on this weeks Comic Cast we review Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie! And speaking of bringing dead dogs back to life – we also review Dredd. In Irish comics we inspect At War with the Empire by Gerry Hunt, Ghost of Shandon by Alan Corbett and Tales from the Void by Darrin O’Toole and A. Kaviraj. Also up for review on this weeks show is Daredevil: End of Days by Brian Michael Bendis/David W. Mack/Klaus Janson. Not forgetting all the comics news that’s fit to waffle about! Enjoy!

Adam West had his day and now Christian Bale has his. The Comic Cast reviews The Dark Knight Rises. Does anything else matter on this weeks episode? Probably not. But if you’re interested we also review Batman Earth One (Geoff John/Gary Frank), Spider-Men (Brian Micheal Bendis/Sara Pichelli), Before Watchmen: Night Owl (J.M. Stracynski/Joe & Andy Kubert), Before Watchmen: Silk Spectre (Darwyn Cooke/Amanda Conner/Amanada Conner), Before Watchmen: Comedian (Brian Azzerello/J.G. Jones) and Before Watchmen: Ozymandias (Len Wein/Jae Lee).

This week, as you can see from the photographic evidence above, we’ve been cohorting with Larry the Leprechaun! And while helping Larry move his crock of gold we found cartoonist Philip Barrett at the end of the rainbow! So we thought we’d interview him about his new book Where’s Larry? from O’Brien Press in which Larry travels around Ireland hiding in some of Ireland’s most beautiful spots such as the Giant’s Causeway and Galway Bay. Phil tells us the ins and outs of illustrating such a detailed book, his upcoming small press comics and he reveals just who was the inspiration for Larry’s smile!
