Issue #177: Batgirl Variant, New Costumes and Southern Cross
LOTS of stuff went down this week and all before we recorded so there is quite a bit to go over. There's the controversy over Rafael Albuquerque's Batgirl variant cover and The Killing Joke. There's the post-Convergence costumes for Wonder Woman and Superman that were revealed (spoilers: they're awful). And then there's certain higher ups over at Image ranting about the "vocal minority" on Twitter and then pulling a very Rob Ford-esque apology. So, you know. Stuff happened.
If you get a chance, make sure to check out this blog by Adam Gorham regarding the male fanboy perspective on the Batgirl variant controversy and The Killing Joke.
We get into everything throughout the show and then there's the good ol' regular segments in which we talk about comics. These ones in particular...
Lightning Round
The Surface #1, Deadly Class Vol. 2, Sheltered #15, Operation S.I.N. #3, Saga #26, Spider-Gwen #2, Thor #6, Spawn Resurrection #1, Powers (TV show).
Book of the Week
Hellbreak #1, Howard the Duck #1, Ninjak #1, Silver Surfer #10.
Shared Book of the Week
Southern Cross by Becky Cloonan and Andy Belanger
FYI: the crew have gone all superhero on the world, thanks to the wonderful Hanie Mohd. Like them? Make sure to follow her and let us know what you think of our superhero pictures.
