YES!
Yayyyy.. it’s been a while. LOVE the Bendis Tapes
Awesome as always. Thanks John!
Did Bendis just confirm that Oeming is scripting Powers now? Or did I hear that wrong?
bendis and oeming said this at the baltimore con loast november, and on our talk last month. they are co-writing powers.
Ron espoused a conspiracy theory to that effect on the podcast when Powers #3 came out, but I didn’t remember hearing anything about it either.
@Jimski Yeah I remember that, which is why it stuck out when I heard it.
@John Thanks for confirming.
My take-away is that I need to listen harder to Word Balloon.
I love these. Thanks John.
Even though I’ve been avoiding Bendis’ work for a while (I’ll check out Scarlet) I still find the Bendis Tapes a good llisten. Pretty amazing how much time you guys put into these marathon podcasts.
"Ron espoused a conspiracy theory to that effect on the podcast when Powers #3 came out, but I didn’t remember hearing anything about it either."
I had completley forgotten that B&O said that at the powers baltimore panel (Probably cause I was focused on being a good MC, making sure I didn’t take time away from potential audience q’s.).
Fisrt I heard of Ron’s theory was on the 11’Oclock podcast.
(Umm… it wasn’t Ron, it was me.)
All right, fine. I have to listen to Word Balloon AND iFanboy harder.
Very entertaining listen, thanks
Awesome!
John, you da man! If I ever make it CHicago, I’m taking you out for a burger and a beer!
Thanks, iFanboy, thanks Word Balloon, and thanks to BMB. Excellent listen. Much appreciated. After a good 30 years, it has been a great joy to return to the Avengers universe and read these comics. Lots of fun. Cheers.
