CBMFP 193 (Part 1): If You're Catching Frank Miller's Drift

Ladies and Gentlemen... we've got a treat for you today. Rather than doing our usual Comic Con coverage in which we talk about too much news and pretend to cover a few titles we've actually split the show in two! That way if you have no desire to hear us talk about news or would rather just hear us talk about news there's an episode for that. You'll have to turn in for the second half to see what books we cover. As for news... there's a plenty. Trailers are discussed. Lots of Batman happens. DC news happens. Turtle News. G.I. Joe and Street Fighter. There's something for most everyone.

The duo also do a fairly lengthy dissection of the 3rd season of, "Orange is the New Black." Monster finally saw some movies...

Monster & Wine: Episode 42 - Here We Go Again

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what the name of this episode is referring to.

CBMFP 187: Sixteen Boners

Well it's another episode with hardly any comic talk, but we cover plenty of movies that are in realm of nerd and some TV shit probably. TMNT 2, yeah we're going to talk about it, but we'll never watch it... ever. Lumberjanes are heading to the big screen along with Johnny Quest! Million Mom's takes on Fox's Lucifer... which is a confusing statement because I have to actually clarify that it's the upcoming TV show we're talking about. There is some comic talk because DC is introducing half page ads in the middle of their comics kind of like how comics used to do that all the time... but people ain't happy! Books covered on this episode:

Monster & Wine: Episode 39 - It's In The Game

Sports! Yes indeed, this time around Monster & Wine are talking about both the pitch and the court. The introduction of women's national teams in the upcoming FIFA 16 video game has people both incredibly stoked and peculiarly pissed off. M&W fall into the former category and discuss in depth. Monster takes a back seat and lets Wine do her thing by evaluating the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers going at it in the upcoming NBA Finals. The episode is closed out with a couple of "weird" stories from around the web.
