A few technically difficulties at the start. It looks like our original theme music files got corrupted in a move from one server to another so we’ll have new music for 2011.

It’s the end of the year CBF podcast! Tim and I are joined by our friend Daniel M. Clark, a fellow comic book geek and wonderful podcaster. You can listen to his podcasts over at QAQN.com

Everyone have a happy and fullfilling 2011!

Light week for books, but not light on content. For video gamers like me, this was our week what with the E3 conference coming and going. The comic book video game content was pretty impressive too even with Arkham Asylum 2 a no-show this year. It’s a definite improvement when you consider the history of comic book games.

Despite the low amount of books, it was the Birds of Prey that stood out from the pack. Gail Simone has hit her stride these last two weeks with Secret Six taking the prize last week. She has a great affinity for these characters and takes them down really dark down paths and sees what they can make of them. Having a talented artist like Ed Benes certainly helps to express the dark mood too.

Enjoy the show and enjoy the game trailers!
