Good News, no F-bombs this time around. - First we review Transformers 2. We got to see a sneak preview Monday night, by John Campbell Wow, been too long since Matt or I last posted on the site, but here's a fresh new episode to enjoy. Good News, no F-bombs this time around. First we review Transformers 2. We got to see a sneak preview Monday night, by now you've all seen it, but if not we give our almost spoiler free review. I want to change the score I gave it though. I had previously rated the first TF an 8, so I have to move TF2 down a couple points. I'd give it a 6, maybe a low 7 because while not great, it was enjoyable. News stories: Archaia studios sign with Henson to adapt Legend, Dark Crystal, Fragglerock, and more. Steve Rogers returns, kind of? Not really, in reprint heavy Cap 600. Reborn coming July 1. Sean McKeever's new Nomad series. Why? Why is Wildcat still alive? X-babies Return with Star Comics characters Spidey still married? Not an imaginary story! Not an alternate Reality! Ron Frenz gets lifetime achievement and it pisses me off! Bryan Fuller leaves Heroes. Again. Then we dive into the June Previews. And I plan to talk about PORN! okay, probably not. and Matt loves Ghostbusters a little too much.

Another one of my favourite type of episodes, an interview. This time around I sit down with Mark Sable, Dave Roth, and PJ Holden, and talk about their upcoming book Fearless. I have to say I'm really looking forward to this book. Check out their website, Fearlesscomic.com and check out Mark's other work, Grounded and Paul Holden's work. and I play a PROMO for The ScapeCast Press Release from Image: A true man without fear strikes this November! August 28th, 2007 (Berkeley, CA) - This November GROUNDED's Mark Sable, 2000 AD's P.J. Holden and industry newcomer David Roth reinvent what it means to be a man without fear with FEARLESS, an all-new full color four-issue miniseries. "If you're going to do a superhero book these days you really need to do something unique," says Mark Sable. "FEARLESS is far from typical. The lead is a literal man without fear, as behind the mask he's paralyzed with a crippling anxiety disorder, but an anti-fear drug enables him to fight the war on crime. A life of dependency crashes down when his supply runs completely dry. What comes next is the crux of the series." Sable is best known for his work on the critically-acclaimed GROUNDED and artist P.J. Holden is revered for his work on 2000 AD, while co-writer David Roth has a background in film and television. However, the itch to work in comics has been a long time coming. David Roth explains, "This has been an amazing experience. Working with people as talented as Mark and PJ in this new medium has been a creative windfall. From inception to execution, it seems like every idea becomes a possibility, while this unprecedented level of control over the process has been both rewarding and educational. I couldn't be happier with the results of our collaboration on FEARLESS." FEARLESS #1 (SEP071951), a 32-page full color four-issue miniseries with a cover price of $2.99, will be available for order in the September issue of Previews and will go on sale November 7th.
