Our 50th Episode! Please email us about ordering the chrome, foil, 3-D, prismatic, sketch, convention exclusive, mail in, signed, numbered, bagged and wraparound edition of the podcast!

Superboy is back in Smallville, kicking it in a new title written by Jeff Lemire and drawn by Pier Gallo, and the Weiners are checking it out (from afar, with binoculars).

Weed checks out Brightest Day (DC Comics), I Zombie (Vertigo), Buffy (Dark Horse), and Warriors Three (Marvel), before premiering his new segment: Weed’s Stash!

Brad checks out an older Teen Titans trade, while Steege had a good time at the local nerdfest known as D-Frag. A couple of the Weiners checked out the new Walking Dead series on AMC.

John has an awesome week of comics and laments a bit about the last issue of Unknown Soldier (Vertigo), Scarlet (Icon), Serenity: A Shepard’s Tale (Dark Horse) and the new hardcover collection of The Coffin (IDW).

Bo checks out a Star Wars book that he grabbed from Weed before he talks about Secret Six (DC) and Crossed (Avatar Press), which leads to a bit more Crossed talk.

Weed also talks about a comic called Vision Machine #1, which is available here:

Walking Dead Trailer (SDCC)

Check it out fast, it might just go missing soon with all the studios and Youtube cracking down on this . . . but this one has been on awhile . . . strange, maybe AMC is being smart about the whole thing and realizes that this will be the best exposure they can get! The show seems like it is going to be a good adaptation, things are changed, which should keep it fresh, but it seems to also remain true to the formula for the most part (at least in this short clip). And the little girl zombie is creeeeeeeeeeeepy!

OMG OMG WALKING DEAD OMG

Not quite sure what he means by, “We hope to do for zombies what Mad Men has done for advertising.”  umm… okay… How about you just make a badass TV show based on a wicked-awesome graphic novel? That’s all anyone really wants.

Thanks to THE KING OF THE ZOMBIES for this one! (article direct link)
