In a celebration of the life of amazing comic creator Darwyn Cooke, we tackle his magnum opus, DC: The New Frontier. The book is so great, so dense, so all-encompassing, that we actually only cover the first half in this two hour episode. We also read some listener feedback, talk about how adorable Kent is, and expound all the wonders and triumphs of DC's greatest team, the Challengers of the Unknown.
It's like Christmas for comic nerds! Kent, Tim, and Marc discuss their FCBD 2016 experiences and some of the FCBD comics we read, including Bongo Free-For-All, Boom! Studio's Summer Blast, Civil War II from Marvel, Dark Horse FCBD 2016, ROM #0, Captain America FCBD, Love & Rockets Sampler, Lady Mechanika #0, Spongebob Freestyle Funnies, & We Can Never Go Home/Young Terrorists FCBD.
We also discuss the awesome comic book store that is Daydreams Comics in Iowa City, IA, Cry Havoc by Simon Spurrier and Ryan Kelly from Image Comics, A.D. New Orleans After the Deluge by Josh Neufeld from Pantheon Graphic Novels, Extraordinary X-Men by Jeff Lemire and Humberto Ramos from Marvel Comics, and Simpsons Comics #226 by Tony Digerolamo and Phil Oritz from Bongo Comics.
