ABCP 65 Cont'd

Since Evie's not feeling so well and has a full day of crap ahead of her, I figured I'd help out and post the pretty pictures, since I know how to do that. If you make clickings, they get bigged.

Here's Evie's cover of the week, Ex Machina 46, written by Brian K Vaughan - cover by Tony Harris with spectacular colors by JD Mettler.



And here's my cover, the variant for Skrull Kill Krew #5 written by my friend Adam Felber, who needs to send me an e-mail next time he's back in New York. Cover by "Rocafort, Regler, and IF's Prianto." (who can also fight for your rights if you've been injured on the job or in an auto accident.)



Here's Evie's panel of the week, from Beasts of Burden #2 written by Evan Dorkin, art by Jill Thompson. And would it KILL you two to put in more cats?



Super bonus - here's more cats.



And my panel of the week, from The Stuff of Legend #2 (which you can get here if your shop didn't pick it up) written by Mike Raicht and Brian Smith, art by Charles Paul Wilson III.



And, as promised, here's Italian Spiderman.



Sheep pictures will follow. (get it? that's what sheep do.)

ABCP Episode #65

I am working late and getting sick, so I'm going to put off the visual aids until tomorrow night, but the new episode is up here or in the right sidebar. Kisses.

This episode of Awesomed By Comics is brought to you by the Valley Shepherd Creamery, where we met some totally badass sheep who totally wanted to hang with us for more than our snacks. Speaking of domesticated animals, Evan Dorkin and Jill Thompson's Beasts of Burden wins our hearts, as does Power Girl's cat, and her trip to IKEA. Chew holds onto its title as the Surprise Hit of the Summer well into October, and the new run on JLA, hopefully off a steep cliff, begins. Please be sure to download the War Rocket Ajax Halloween Special this week, where we are delightful, or at least shrill, special guests.

ABC Podcast, Episode #64 and visual aids

This episode of Awesomed By Comics is brought to you by tea, zen and scalding all over your lap. Incredible Hercules shines in ball-kickin', nipple-twistin' onomatopoeic glory, and Mike Carey's awesome The Unwritten makes no sense in the best possible way. Deadpool and Spider-Man mini-story anthologies get points, and Batgirl starts to begrudgingly meet our requests, while also demonstrating DC's sore need for good teen-themed pencilers.

ABC Podcast, Episode #63 and visual aids

This episode of Awesomed By Comics is brought to you by the latest entry in our rap battle beef war with War Rocket Ajax, and holy cats is it a heartbreaking, dream-making love-taker. Brother I mean Doctor Voodoo works his magic, and the long-awaited wrap-up to Planetary is universally (GET IT?) lauded. A lot of good-guys-turned-bad this week, and WTF is up with that thing that Batman did? That was highly irregular.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T

OH GOD DAMMIT. Many apologies, but you all are gonna have to wait until tomorrow night for the podcast, which is/was going to be a GREAT one--the computer just up and COLD DIED an hour-plus into recording and erased everything. I suppose as "professionals" we should keep these things to ourselves, but honesty is best. Anyway, it's late, it would suck if we did it again now, so tomorrow it is. Very sorry, but I promise it will be worth the wait, there's at least one piece of major awesome.

Oh dizzam

So if you've been listening to our podcast, you know something about our rap battle (or "beef war") with the War Rocket Ajax podcast, which has gotten fairly heated, and also not heated at all. Anyway, Eugene's answer to our Wolverine smackdown opens the most recent episode of their show, and holy crap is it a punch in the head. Go listen to it immediately. We're going to have to do something desperate. Like really, really desperate. I'm guessing Aaron has some ideas.

ABC Podcast, Episode #62 and visual aids

This episode of Awesomed By Comics is brought to you by Asparagus. It will cut you. We mourn the loss of a top-notch Runaways creative team that got cut too short, and marvel (small "m") at the shagtastic thriller that is Herogasm. A very intriguing first issue of Mark Waid's The Unknown: The Devil Made Flesh leaves us wanting much more, and Marvel Divas rends Aaron's heart in fricking TWO.
