Tim and I wrap up (no not rapping, we just talk) our decade in review starting at 2005. We hope you had a great year (and decade) and we’re looking forward to better and more podcasts, comics, movie reviews, videos and giving you our unique (some say odd, very very odd) take on comics.
Happy New Year everyone!

Using Tim’s quick pick from a few weeks ago, we round out the year and the decade with a look at Wizard’s Decade in Review. So what did you think about the last 10 years of comics?
Enjoy part one!
Rob Liefield shoots on Alan Moore
We all know how much Alan Moore takes pride in his works and how much he loathes what the Hollywood industry does to his works (though we beg to differ on Watchmen – listen to our first podcast for our review). Overall, no one can dispute what he did in bringing unique takes on the comic book medium as a whole.
And that’s why it’s all the more interesting when you read about colleagues of his come in and play the game “You Know What Really Grinds My Gears?” Check out this link to see what Rob Liefeld, the big time artist of books like X-Force, had to say of his experience with Moore. It’s an old article, but still intriguing to read. I don’t think the things Liefeld says is anything new, but take it for what it is – another in-depth insight into the world of Moore.
Thanks to my friend Mr. Gary Cooke for the link – now send me some Invincible books already 
Comic Book Fury 5: Fables, First 5 Graphic Novels
Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
This week’s podcast is all about Fables. Well at least the first five graphic novels. Fables is on ongoing Vertigo series with characters from fairy tales and folklore, such as The Big Bad Wolf, Snow White, Boy Blue and others, who have left their Homelands to escape an enemy known as the Adversary, whose identity is revealed in a later issue, but not in the first five graphic novels.
Fables is written by Bill Willingham, who also wrote another new favorite of mine, House of Mystery.
We talk a little about Sandman, John Constantine, and I yes I know, it’s Jack Ketch, not John.
Enjoy!
