Fourcast! 48: Talkin’ ‘Bout Comics
June 7th, 2010 by david brothers | Tags: Batman, heralds, kathryn immonen, podcasts, tonci zonjic-Let’s talk about last week’s comics!
–Batman Confidential 45. Words by Kevin Vanhook, pencils by Tom Mandrake, preview
–Red Robin 13. Words by Fabian Nicieza, pencils by Marcus To, preview
–Heralds 1. Words by Kathryn Immonen, pencils by Tonci Zonjic, preview
–Dong Xoai, by Joe Kubert, Amazon link
-Esther doesn’t like to see Batman in anything but crime-based circumstances in Gotham, but she sure did enjoy his battle against zombies and werewolves in New Orleans in Batman Confidential.
-She also got a pleasant surprise out of Red Robin, one of the rare Bat-books where everyone gets along (mostly) and three bros just kinda hang out, broing it up on the rooftops of the city.
-David likes Heralds because Kathryn Immon rules and Tonci Zonjic rules and Franke Raye rules. It’s a no-brainer.
-He also digs Joe Kubert’s Dong Xoai, in large part because he doesn’t know exactly how to talk about it.
-6th Sense’s 4a.m. Instrumental for the theme music.
-See you, space cowboy!

Esther, is talking to David going to be impossible for you now that Peace Walker has come out for the PSP?
@Nathan: I don’t really play video games anymore.
@david brothers: oh, I was assuming you’d check it out cause it was an MGS game by Kojima
I think that Batman Con story is the long-awaited retelling of the classic Byrne-era Superman story were he fought vampires in the South with the help of Batman, only this time it’s told from Batman’s perspective!
OK, prolly not.
