389: Bananas In. Bananas Out. That’s What Banana Eating is All About!

Posted on by zeroissues

Acting!!! Thespians!!! Performers!! Pantomimers….. ok maybe not that one.
We’re talking about Comic Book Actors this week. Specifically actors/actresses who have done MULTIPLE comic book roles. Who’s done most? Who’s done the best? Who’s done the worst?
We probably have a few on this list you never realized did THAT many comic book roles!
And this week… i know this will come as a surprise…. we’re a little silly. A little goofy. So join us for this ridiculous ride and learn how we get to such sayings as ‘Strong Tucci Soup’, or the titular ‘Bananas in. Bananas out. That’s what banana eatin’ is all about’. And join us for the ridiculous warm up of ‘dumb ways to die’ for comic characters…. who knew Hawkman couldn’t survive getting sucked into a jet engine?

387: The Chip Zdarsky Interview – Add Beards, Do Cocaine

Posted on by zeroissues

Chip Zdarsky! We interview Chip Zdarsky! Lookit us! Talking to other people and stuff.

Chip of course is a comic writer/artist of such books as Sex Criminals, Public Domain, Kaptara, Jughead, Howard the Duck, Daredevil and that little title called Batman. Perhaps you’ve heard of it.

We caught Chip on his cross Canada tour as he came through town and was gracious enough to sit down and have a relaxed, fun, hilarious conversation with us. There’s also a video of this interview as well! Listen to it, then watch it! Chip for several senses!

Watch the video version right here!

It’s DRAMATIC READING time and we have a CLASSIC DOOZY for ya!! Superman racing the Flash! It doesn’t get much more iconic than that…. but we can make it a lot weirder and funnier! And we do! Listen along as we act out and react to this surprisingly convoluted story. Hear about the UN’s gambling problem that they get these two heroes involved in! Watch Green Lantern and his brown ring! Hear about Steven Seagal in a hot tub full of butter! See Superman blow the Flash…. not like that!! This episode (and race) is sponsored by Brown Sprite.

Decide – Solely Holy Moly – Is the Family Circus an origin story for Billy Batson? – Helen Mirren’s twisted fingers! – Kyle is the Marvel whisperer…. and he is! – That and SO MUCH MORE!

GETCHA HULK CHUNKS! Three newsboys dig into the biggest comic news of exactly this moment! It’s new creative teams and number-ones galore as the allure of that big #1 looms large. Very soon, Wonder Woman and The Flash get big #800 anniversary issues followed by new #1 issues and wild new directions.

Chip Zdarsky and Marco Checchetto’s 5-year Daredevil epic comes to a close as Chip hits the road across Canada – and maybe to a comic shop near you, if you live in Canada, and we do! The Hulk stops being a… spaceship?… and gets back to his roots as a big green monster man — and just in time for some manner of monster war! In the land of moving pictures, Batman: Caped Crusader lives on with a two-season Amazon Prime deal!

Hey wait, you forgot a number one! Steel (John Henry) and Steel (Natasha) return in Steelworks #1, written by none other than Michael Dorn, the voice of Steel in the ‘90s cartoon, and, y’know, Worf. So hot right now. You don’t see Shaq getting invited, do you? And speaking of not being invited: after getting Typhoid Married, Wilson “Big Willie” “The Kingpin” Fisk has found a loophole granting him a permanent Krakoan Honeymoon! Oh my, just imagine the zany misadventures to come every week at the Blob’s bar.
