The iFanboy.com Comic Book Podcast is a weekly talk show all about the best new current comic book releases. Lifelong friends, Conor Kilpatrick and Josh Flanagan talk about what they loved and (sometimes) hated in the current weekly books, from publishers like Marvel, DC, Image Comics, Dark Horse Comics, BOOM! Studios, IDW, Aftershock, Valiant, and more. The aim is to have a fun time, some laughs, but to also really understand what makes comic books work and what doesn’t, and trying to understand the craft of this great, often under appreciated art form. Sometimes they agree, and sometimes… they don’t. With decades of experience talking about comics, interacting with comic book professionals, this is all about the love of an art form. If the names Brian Michael Bendis, Amanda Conner, Geoff Johns, Gene Luen Yang, Donny Cates, Jason Aaron, Kelly Thompson, David Marquez, Kelly Sue de Connick, Kieron Gillen, Charles Soule, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Scott Snyder, Tom King, Mitch Gerads, Esad Ribic, Rick Remender, Nick Spencer, John Ridley, Skottie Young, Chip Zdarsky, Jöelle Jones, David F. Walker, Grant Morrison, and Darwyn Cooke get you excited, then this is the place for you. This podcast is so good, you don’t even need to read comic books or graphic novels to enjoy it, but it’s a lot better if you do.

It's time for a generationally huge week of comics. Had we read these in physical form, their bulk would have required building permits and licensed forklift operators. As it is, Conor's iPad is almost too hot to touch. There are, however, many artistic goodies to be found among them, as we celebrate these riches. Oh, and do you hear that ringing in the distance?Note: Time codes are estimates due to dynamic ad insertion by the distributor.Running Time: 01:21:43Pick of the Week:00:02:11 - Dark Knights of Steel II #4Comics:00:12:13 - The Twilight Zone #1100:19:03 - Miles Morales: Spider-Man #300:23:37 - Doomquest #500:29:55 - End of Life #900:34:08 - The Forged #1400:39:26 - Action Comics #110300:42:47 - The Avengers #807 (Avengers: Armageddon #5)The Bell:00:46:11 - Superman: Unlimited #1800:48:59 - Detective Comics #111400:49:15 - Six of Us #200:50:01 - Ofiusa #200:50:33 - Did You Hear About Mimi Green? #400:50:57 - Emperor Aquaman #2200:51:19 - Young Hellboy: Thrilling Sky Adventures #400:51:46 - G.I.
