Spirited Away
Download (right-click on link)
It’s the pre-SDCC episode, so don’t expect any big news. Instead, Shawn and Tom find the time to talk about Warren Ellis’s new James Bond title, Dan Slott’s new Twitter war with Bleeding Cool, Dynamite going old-school, Heavy Metal Magazine new shiny headed editor, and much much more.
On the review side, we get the first issues of long awaited and confusingly numbered 8House: Arclight, the long-awaited We Stand on Guard, and the worryingly-anticipated Will Eisner’s The Spirit (not actually by Will Eisner). All of that plus the first story arc of vertigo’s Effigy in a near-two-hours podcast extravaganza!
