Hello FITWR listeners, Republic City Dispatch fanatics and Storm of Spoilers/Cast of Kings fantasy nerds, we’re back for more comics discussion!
New comics enthusiast Joanna Robinson of Vanity Fair’s Hollywood and The Station Agents podcast is joined by a guy who just re-read Garth Ennis’ Preacher, Da7e Gonzales of Geek.com and Latino-Review.com
No matter your level of engagement, if you’re interested in comic books and their surrounding pop culture, this show’s for you!
THIS WEEK: Too much has happened in comics and comics related media in the past few weeks that this week’s Thought Bubble comes in two parts!
PART 1 – Much ado about DC Comics. Not only has DC Rebirth #1 rebooted the universe with a twist, but Geoff Johns C.C.O. of the comics has ascended to create DC Films to oversee future film entries. Then, The Flash and Arrow fail to stick their season landings, but that doesn’t mean we’re not in a Golden Age of DC TV with Supergirl jumping to the CW in the fall. Finally, Da7e and Joanna discuss AMC’s Preacher, since Joanna loves the show and Da7e just finished a re-read of the comics.
PART 2 – Kicking things off: did Marvel really just make Steve Rogers a Hydra agent? Then, both Da7e and Joanna have seen X-Men: Apocalypse, undoubtably the oddest installment Bryan Singer has contributed to the franchise. Things they like get overshadowed by things that they don’t and the whole chain of decision making leaves everyone puzzled. Finally, SPOILERS for Thor: Ragnarok, we check in with the new official casting and Da7e applies that to what he thinks he knows.
