Matt is back!

We spend an hour talking about every DC event over the last few years.

This is one for those that like more open less structured episodes. Warning there is an F-bomb in this episode, so it should be rated PG-13, at least.

Theme Music from Brad Sucks

As Green Arrow and Black Wedding get ready for their wedding, it looks like the Injustice League is plotting. And does Suicide Sqaud look awesome or what? and John Ostrander returning to the series, should be good.

Two new books for DC this week. First up is Countdown to Adventure #1 and is that a NEW Adam Strange? The other is Teen Titans 50, while it’s not a new comic, it is a great jumping on point as new series writer Sean McKeever jumps on. I’m really looking forward to his run on the series.

 Comics Radar ep. 023 - Ron Marz Interview [50:06m]: Play Now | Download

I talk to comic writer Ron Marz about everything from his new comic First Born, from Top Cow, and Samurai: Heaven and Earth for Dark Horse, to being a parent and how Greg Land creates his artwork. A longer podcast at 50 minutes with all the dirt.

Hope to see you at Florida Supercon.

Episode sponsored by Florida Supercon June 22-24, 2007

Theme Music: Super Myth by Ledenhead, from the Podsafe Music Network

That’s what Rob Thomas is saying in a recent interview with E! Online:

As for Veronica Mars, Thomas tells me: “I think the best odds for seeing the continuation of the Veronica Mars story is in comic-book form. I had a meeting with DC Comics last week. They want to do the series. I want to do the series. It’s just a matter of making a deal and figuring out when I have the time to write it. And perhaps a feature screenplay will follow.”

I kind of wish it was going somewhere other than DC, since I haven’t enjoyed DCs other translated media projects recently. (Supernatural, Smallville, Freddy, and Jason). But as a person that just became a fan after picking up the DVD set, I can’t wait to see more.

I wonder what other cancelled TV series could continue as comic books? Drive? Studio 60? Jericho?
