Punisher is once again slaughtering the Marvel Universe, and this time, it is to beat back all the Marvel Heroes and Villians who have caught a slight viral outbreak which makes them eat people . . .
Steege announces his contest . . . a first for Burnt Weiners! Write in to burntweiners@gmail and tell him what movie/game/etc you want to see made into a comic book that hasn’t yet (or for a good long while). You could win a shirt . . . previously owned by Steege. Include your shirt size!
The talk then moves onto Dragon Age: Origin and it’s downloadable content. Weed tells us about Unwritten, Dust Wars and some Shadowland stories.
Bo is blown away by Daytripper #9, and then falls back in love with Knights of the Dinner Table. The show is wrapped up when Punisher busts in, blasting the Weiners to death, confusing them with the Great Lakes Avengers.
The guys (and gal as Bo’s wife Adel joins us) start the show off by taking some listener mail and talking Star Wars. They also want to hear what cartoon you want brought back and why, email us a burntweiners@gmail.com
Breaking into the series known as Electric Ant, the guys manage to sound high and pompous while waxing philosophical . . . more waning than waxing.
Steege checks out some more Star Wars, Castlevania and Blood Bowl, Adel reads Farhenheit 451 only to spite John, Weed checks a ton of comics like Secret Six, Brightest Day and Marvel Vs The Punisher Universe. John talks a bit about the Fables Cinderella trade and Sparta USA, before Bo wraps things up with Thor and Crossed.
As sent in by our buddy Travis (who had drawn awesome Cyclops drawing he sent us) of Beneath The Surface/End Of An Age fame . . . he is also famous for his pickle trick, but that is a story for another time!
Seriously, this is 40 minutes of some pretty damn good stuff . . .
The Weiners celebrate some birthdays the Paul Dundee way . . . by reading the kickoff issue to SHADOWLAND! The Hand, Daredevil and Bullseye help blow out the birthday candles, and can’t recall the Banner’s name on the Incredible Hulk TV Show (and it was David, because “Bruce” was “too gay”).
Travis talks about some more metal concerts he attended, John gets pumped for Maleev and Bendis’ return as a working team on Scarlet (Icon Comics).
Weed tells us all about I Zombie (Vertigo), Brightest Day (DC), Secret Six (DC), Dark Rain (Vertigo), Pet Avengers (Marvel), Persepolis (Pantheon), and Dust Wars (Image)! WHEW!
Steege shares with us some wrestling stories, The Faith Series Jesus Christ (Bluewater) and how God has a broken heart and the devil looks awesome, and Electric Ant (Marvel). Bo then gushes about Green Lantern, Lobo, Atrocitus, dogs and kitty cats! Lobo – F YEAH!
The some more blah blah blah about random video game things and gross friends!
It looks like there might be a showdown between Magus and Thanos and the Weiners want to see the clash of those titans! But they are less than thrilled at the reprinting of old comics as backups in their comics.
John talks about Green Lantern Corp and how he owes Tony Bedard an apology, Wyatt Earp (Radical), Seven Soldiers (Boom), JL Generation Lost (DC), and the greatness of Unknown Soldier. Travis brings up a metal show that some of the Weiners were involved with, and his terrible shirt choice.
Weed brings out his naughty and nice list and talks about Gi Joe (IDW), Angel (IDW), DV8 Gods and Monsters (Wildstorm), Secret Six (DC), a little bit about playing some VS games against THE RING HAS CHOSEN guys, Welcome to Tranquility(Wildstorm, and Game of Thrones just before slipping in some LOST talk. Then we all have to shell out money as Travis keeps singing very expensive songs we have to pay for the rights for.
Bo is working on getting caught up on Ultimate Spider-Man and tells us all about it befoe we find a present left from Steege which we hope he tells us about on the next show.
The “Merc With A Mouth” storms his way onto the Burnt Weiners Podcast! Guns ablazing! White Lightening a flowing! The guys then move on to talk about The Losers and Kick-Ass movies, Free Comic Book Day, Dragon Age Origins, World of Warcraft (Wildstorm), The Wheel of Time (Dynamie Entertainment), the newly released Thor movie picture, Brett Michaels, Stuff of Legend, Atomic Robo, Marvel’s upcoming event Shadowland, and even find time to talk about Louis CK!
As always, stick around after the end of the show for some outtakes from the show!
The guys check out the latest offering from Marvels ever expanding all ages titles, this one being Lockjaw and the Pet Avengers Unleashed! Then TRAVIS SLAPS JOHN IN THE FACE! No really, check it out, it has a pretty sweet sound to it. The shows gets slightly raunchier to countract the family friendly comic they are reveiwing. The Weiners then talk about Pride of Baghdad, 100 Bullets, Unwritten, Criminal Sinners, Star Trek TNG, Bozo The Clown, Iron West, Jonah Hex, and Andy Griffith. And then some listener mail about how unprofessional some of the guests of the show are!
