Fourcast! 25: Blast from the Pastcast
November 16th, 2009 by david brothers | Tags: Batman, brian azzarello, doc savage, eric trautmann, phil noto, podcastsThere may be a few audio hitches in this one. I tried to even it out, but some of them were unavoidable. Recording problems blah blah blah, it should be fixed for the show after the next.
-Intro drop: Jamaal Thomas of Funnybook Babylon. And he does like comics. He liked Luke Cage Noir, the recently ended Marvel miniseries set in Harlem.
-Theme music: 6th Sense’s 4a.m. Instrumental
-The Shield: I was surprised I liked it, and try to get across a little of why I did.
-Batman & Doc Savage Special #1: I was surprised I didn’t like it, Esther was surprised that Batman grabbed a boob, and we gab about it for a bit.
-CEOutro
Some visual aides, words by Azzarello, art by Noto:

It’s kind of disappointing to finally see the boob-grabbing that I’ve been hearing about; it’s all tentative, like Bats is still trying to be nice about it while appearing mean, or something. Not nearly as salacious as I had hoped.

Batman’s such a 14 year old boy.

Batman faking a yawn and a stretch to reach his arm around her for the grab.
by Esther Inglis-Arkell November 16th, 2009 at 10:15 --replymeh, I agree with ya on this, but I’m still gonna give FW a shot, since it seems like Bats will only have a minimal role in that. also I personally love Morales
by Nathan November 16th, 2009 at 13:00 --replyI fail to see a problem.
by edc November 16th, 2009 at 21:13 --replyI do however see some excellent art.
if some mouthbreather starts OMGswipezing about the connery reference on the first page there I’ll shit on the desk at the office where they earn a crust.
re: the boobgrab, batman is the mack.
by edc November 16th, 2009 at 21:17 --replyso, Shield eh? glad to see I’m not the only one who’s enjoying it. definitely took me by surprise too. Trautmann is definitely a guy to watch.
by Nathan November 17th, 2009 at 08:24 --replyHuh. So he really does grab a boob.
You know, I love Noto’s art for the most part, but that panel just looks off. Either Batman’s got really tiny hands, or she’s got really huge boobs.
