Pick of the Week Podcast
Show Notes
It’s all about Kurt Busiek (rhymes with “music”) as the creator gets the double whammy, with both Pick of the Week and Book of the Month honors with one show. Has it ever happened before? Who has time to check? All we know is that Conor is hungry and really wants a bagel. Good comics await, and the temperatures are more moderate. That makes for a good show.

Whoa whoa whoa!
Talking bad about Rat Race? It ain’t no ‘It’s A Mad Mad Mad Mad World’ but it’s still solid.
This podcast is getting boring 🙁
I don’t think i could disagree more with you. This is consistently the best comic book podcast.
Janja: yeah, well, you know, that’s just your opinion, man.
I know… I love Ifanboy…
But when Josh is the less cranky guy something is wrong…
@Janja I agree. I didn’t want to post here but I also didn’t want you to think you’re alone in having that opinion. Sad solidarity? 🙁
No one’s making you listen. Thank you for your support.
I don’t like having this opinion and I will not stop listening because I like you guys but it sounds like just an obligation nowadays…
If listening feels like an obligation then you should definitely stop.
No, you misunderstood. Doing the podcast looks like an obligation.
Well, sorry I said anything…
@Janja: Doing the podcast is definitely not an obligation or a chore. In fact, it’s the most fun thing we do all week (related to iFanboy). We love doing the show.
Good to hear! I really love this podcast, it essencially is what got me back on comics…
*essentially
Sorry, brazilian…
I think i must be the only person on here who’s genuinely ecstatic about the new green lantern direction
I’ve been reading Astro City in trades but I’m tempted to jump onto issues even though I’m not caught up yet…
And I haven’t read Secret Identity in a long time, but I remember really enjoying it and being very impressed, so I just reserved a copy at the library to reread it.
How is Busiek’s Superman run?
I really enjoyed Busiek’s Superman run — I really need to read Secret Identity . . .
I haven’t read all of it, but what I’ve read of it, I’ve liked.
I’ll have to check it out then!
Good show & Astro City was a good pick. I started re-reading the old issues. Have to check out Swamp Thing again, I dropped it sometime back, though during the Moore run it was one of my fave comics.
