Audio atrocities abound and origins are revealed as we plug in (as well as going unplugged for a while) and hit the news of the week concerning the announcement by Boom! Studios to offer their entire back catalog digitally as well as Marvel’s announcement of the same-day release of INVINCIBLE IRON MAN ANNUAL #1 digitally.

Along the way the Hammer reveals his secret origin and we tackle NEW AVENGERS #1, THE BOYS, THE WALKING DEAD, SECOND COMING, SPIDER-MAN: SHED & THE GRIM HUNT, STUCK RUBBER BABY, as well as JOKER’S ASYLUM: MAD HATTER.

Music: Cher – Life After Love & All That Remains – I’m Not Alone

 

 

The cast gets larger and twice as emotional as we go roundtable with returning champs Sam “the Hammer” Humphries (FRAGGLE ROCK, CBGB, Meltcast ep. 22-23), Pierluigi Cothran (NOLA, Meltcast ep. 9) and Ed Laroche (ALMIGHTY, Meltcast ep. 3). We discuss FUNRAMA: THE MUTANT PUNKS #1 (and how to win one this weekend at C2E2), PUNISHERMAX #6, FLASH #1, BRIGHTEST DAY #0, BATMAN #698, IKIGAMI :THE ULTIMATE LIMIT, SIEGE: LOKI, PHONOGRAM: THE SINGLES CLUB, X-MEN: SECOND COMING and BOOTH by C.C. Colbert and French artist Tanitoc. We also get in touch with our emotions to share which comics have made us cry (only because you asked for it), and talk a bit about the iPad Marvel App.
