Customer Reviews
For Comic book & pop culture fans!
I only recently discovered this show through "The Down & Nerdy" podcast where they interviewed Brandon Easton regarding his new Mask comic from IDW so I was happy to add this to my list of podcasts. It's two comic creators discussing everything from the industry to the latest happenings in comics, film tv, etc. I love that the coversation shifts seamlessly through various areas like their experiences within the comics field plus offering advice about breaking into comics or just discussing different story arcs, or their latest monthly reads. First & foremost they share their love for all things comics & pop culture. They're brutally honest too. My only gripe is that this show is pretty sparse in between epsiodes so it might two or three months before there's a new epsidoe but aslong as they keep doing it, I'll keep listening. If you like other podcasts like Fatman on Batman or Savage Fincast, this is highly recommended.

Had a friend suggest the show. I'm only a few episodes in and I'm enjoying their conversations (and I'm picking and choosing which ones, not in order). It's a good balance of pop culture influence and entertainment. The Brandons bring an interesting perspective to comics, movies, TV, games, etc. I do hope they can improve some of their recording equipment, as the show can sound a little tinny or with some room echo. Still, it's a solid program that folks with an ear towards pop culture will enjoy and appreciate.
