128: It's Tuesday, so you know what that means; it's time for another rousing edition of Is It Wednesday Yet? by Des and Mike. What comics do they discuss this time? Answering would be telling, but here's a clue (in song form): "... does whatever a spider can."
.: 1:01:30 :: 28.1 MB :: 24 July 2007 :.

127: Mike and Jenny hand the show over to Kellen, Randy and Steph who discuss the upcoming anime convention Ai-Kon 2007.
.: 1:03:36 :: 29.1 MB :: 23 July 2007 :.

126: Jenny and Mike roll out their thoughts on the live action Transformers movie. Did it have the touch, or was it a steaming pile in disguise?
.: 1:23:58 :: 38.4 MB :: 20 July 2007 :.

125: Jenny sat down with Josh Elder to talk about his manga series Mail Order Ninja, The Batman Strikes #36 and several other upcoming projects.
.: 1:09:35 :: 31.8 MB :: 19 July 2007 :.

124: There seems to be a theme to this batch of comic books, that being demons. We have gangsters being devoured by demons (The Darkness: Level 5), as well as demons wanting to molest goth girls (Hack/Slash: The Series #3). Superheroes (one of which is a demon) fight a few demons (Unholy Union), whilst a demon-schoolgirl fights even more demons (Witchblade Takeru Manga #6). That's a lot of demons!
.: 1:04:38 :: 29.5 MB :: 17 July 2007 :.

123: Two months into Countdown and Des and Mike are no closer to discovering the truth behind the event, though theories are abound! In addition to Mary Marvel's panties and the erasure of "Superboy" from the DC lexicon, the duo discussed issues 47, 46, 45 and 44.
.: 4:44:01 :: 130 MB :: 16 July 2007 :.

122: Before discussing the July Previews, Jenny and Mike chat about concerts and what makes one better than another. And Jenny seems to be confused about Van Halen.
.: 57:02 :: 26.1 MB :: 12 July 2007 :.

121: In the very first Is It Wednesday Yet?, Desmond joined Mike to review three forthcoming comic books: Freshmen II #6, Witchblade #108 and Xombie: Reanimated #3. In this batch they saw a lovers' quarrel (between a man and a plant), knife-fighting cherubs and zombie monkeys. Zombies, monkeys, angels with blades and plant lovers... why wouldn't you listen to this episode?
.: 50:48 :: 23.2 MB :: 10 July 2007 :.

120: Jenny and Mike finally sat down to recap Wizard World Philly, and they covered Ghost Hunters, Hayden Panettiere, writing, tattoos and large breasts. Large breasts... really?!
.: 1:08:35 :: 31.3 MB :: 06 July 2007 :.

119: Desmond Reddick was joined by Toren Atkinson (of The Darkest of the Hillside Thickets) in the latest installment of Dread Media!

110: World War Hulk, a Wizard World Philly 2007 panel.
.: 1:06:33 :: 30.4 MB :: 25 June 2007 :.

109: Though Earth-2.net and Earth-2.net: The Show didn't examine DC's weekly series 52, the same can't be said about DC's newest weekly effort: Countdown. Desmond Reddick and Michael Sims sat down to discuss the first four issues (51, 50, 49 and 48), and, based on the length of this episode, they clearly had a lot to say about the event. Does this story take place on New Earth? How is it that everyone knows that Jason Todd is Red Hood and was the second Robin? (Along those same lines, if they know that about Todd, how do they not know Bruce Wayne is Batman?) What course of action would cause Mike to drop all DC books? What will be the outcome once we're done counting down? All these questions and more are addressed inside this episode!
.: 4:53:55 :: 134 MB :: 22 June 2007 :.

108: Hey, Jenny's back and it's Previews time! What more needs to be said?

.: 1:08:44 :: 31.4 MB :: 18 June 2007 :.

100: It's episode 100, baby! The big one we've been working towards for a year and a half is in the books, and we celebrated the occasion by covering all things Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! In a marathon of epic proportions, Jenny and Mike reviewed all four feature films. Never have they spent so much time discussing one topic, but the Turtles deserve such an honor (even if two of the films should be erased from the collective consciousness). Not only that, but Ian, Kellen, Desmond and D.W. all contributed to the Turtle lovefest. If you ever loved the Turtles, this is the episode you've been waiting for!
.: 7:15:27 :: 199.0 MB :: 08 June 2007 :.

099: Episode 100 is almost here! In case you've missed our previous announcements, another is made concerning 100 and 101! Beyond that, Mike has a rather long rant about "pompous bums," followed by Ian's thoughts on Spider-Man 3.
.: 1:17:01 :: 35.2 MB :: 25 May 2007 :.

098: Though they agree that Spider-Man 3 was rather lackluster, Jenny and Mike vehemently disagree on the characterization of Mary Jane. (One thinks she's an unsympathetic character portrayed by a hack actress who doesn't resemble the part. The other believes MJ epitomizes how young women think and act.) When that's all said and done, Desmond Reddick pops in with another installment of Dread Media. Also: Episodes 100 and 101 are right around the corner, and we need your help!
.: 1:52:22 :: 51.4 MB :: 18 May 2007 :.

097: Jenny reveals where she's been these last few weeks, then the duo moves into discussing the May Previews. Plus an announcement is made about episode 100!

This wonderfully narrated audio storybook was illustrated by none other than Bruce Timm, of Batman: The Animated Series fame. To read along, download both the MP3 and PDF.
.: 29:07 :: 13.3 MB :: 04 May 2007 :.

095: In an effort to better grasp the DC Universe, Mike recently read Justice League of America #0-8, Justice Society of America #1-4, World War III #1-4 and 52 #50. Which series stood head and shoulders above the rest, and which one stunk up the joint? It's not what you think!
.: 58:51 :: 26.9 MB :: 24 April 2007 :.

094: Mike and Jenny have very different opinions concerning 300, leading to a lengthy discussion about the film and its theme. Afterwards Ian reviews Ghost Rider. Plus Mike makes a huge announcement.
.: 1:27:25 :: 40.0 MB :: 10 April 2007 :.

093: Wait a second! Mike's glad his car was broken into? He's not boiling over with rage? Oh... kay! That little conundrum aside, it's time for the April Previews. And there's talk about boobies.
.: 1:01:24 :: 28.1 MB :: 03 April 2007 :.

092: Mike corrects an error before handing the show over to Desmond Reddick for Dread Media.
.: 55:43 :: 25.5 MB :: 27 March 2007 :.

091: There's lots of post-Civil War comic book talk in this episode, including discussions about Iron Man #15, Captain America #25, Civil War: The Confession, Civil War: The Initiative and The Mighty Avengers #1. There's also a frank dialogue about how the media handled the major news spawning out of Captain America #25, and what the comic book industry can do to entice the masses.
.: 1:49:57 :: 50.3 MB :: 23 March 2007 :.

090: In the first of a multipart series, Mike and James reviewed the inaugural five episodes of Batman: The Animated Series. Thanks to its moody approach, orchestral score and deep characterization, the show is considered a classic. However, only one of the five episodes demonstrated the full potential of the series. Which one was it, who did Mike call "the greatest character in all of TV" and how is "Pretty Poison" like A Tale of Two Cities?
.: 1:17:32 :: 35.4 MB :: 21 March 2007 :.

089: Otakus rejoice! You get not one but two full hours of anime talk. First Kellen reviews Fullmetal Alchemist, then he's joined by his friend Randy for a lengthy Gundam SEED discussion.
.: 2:05:31 :: 57.4 MB :: 16 March 2007 :.

088: Months in the making, our final Civil War episode has arrived! Who got his face smashed in? Who made a surprise appearance? And, most importantly, who won?
.: 1:39:49 :: 45.6 MB :: 13 March 2007 :.

087: Jenny's back! As if that wasn't enough reason to listen, there's a discussion about reading, UFC 68 spoilers and the March Previews.
.: 1:06:38 :: 30.5 MB :: 06 March 2007 :.

086: DC Nation, a New York Comic Con 2007 panel. Plus, the first installments of Dread Media by Desmond Reddick, and a new (yet unnamed) segment by Michael David Sims.

.: 1:50:13 :: 50.4 MB :: 02 February 2007 :.

079: The move is still eating up all of Mike and Jenny's time, so Kellen and Ian picked up the slack with their respective segments. Kellen covers The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, and Ian discusses the comic book adaptations that were released in 2006 and what will be in 2007.
.: 34:20 :: 15.7 MB :: 19 January 2007 :.

078: Seeing as how it's a new month, Mike and Jenny once again sat down to give their recommendations from Previews.
.: 49:31 :: 22.6 MB :: 05 January 2007 :.

077: Mixed in with the Christmas recap is more talk about the forthcoming move, eBay auctions and lots of general banter.
.: 51:41 :: 23.6 MB :: 29 December 2006 :.

.: 35:35 :: 16.2 MB :: 15 December 2006 :.

074: It wouldn't be Civil War without twists, turns and returns, and there's a big return in issue number five! Who was it? Here's a hint: what's black and white and red all-over?
.: 1:25:38 :: 39.2 MB :: 05 December 2006 :.

073: How many Absolutes and Omnibuses did Mike recommend after reading the December Previews, and why did he eat a sheet of the catalog? Something huge is coming to HBO, and Koi Kaze is reviewed by Kellen Scrivens.
.: 1:02:58 :: 28.8 MB :: 01 December 2006 :.

072: Ian Wilson is back with a review of Superman Returns (just in time for the release of the DVD), and lots of comic book movie news!

068: We've gone another month without an issue of Civil War, but we still have a dozen tie-ins to discuss. Which one of us is even closer to changing sides? Only one way to find out!
.: 1:37:06 :: 44.4 MB :: 31 October 2006 :.

.: 1:25:08 :: 38.9 MB :: 13 October 2006 :.

064: When we last spoke about Blade: The Series we determined that it was an okay show, but nothing special. Now that it's over, however, our opinions have changed greatly.
.: 1:01:12 :: 28.0 MB :: 06 October 2006 :.

063: Nearly 40 episode ago we covered the fifth season finale of Smallville. Now we're back to discuss the premier of the sixth season. Good times were not had by all. Kellen also returns with his latest Anticipation.
.: 1:07:11 :: 30.7 MB :: 29 September 2006 :.

062: Civil War #4 is finally here. Was it worth the wait, how does it compare to the previous issues, which one of us was (partially) swayed? You know the drill: listen in to find out! Mike also discusses comments he made in episode 58, comments which have led to angry feedback.
.: 1:45:32 :: 48.3 MB :: 26 September 2006 :.

019: Runaways: The Good Die Young is quite simply the best volume yet, but it's still lacking something. Plus, we unload a ton of comic book, video game and movie news. And Kellen's third installment of Anticipation is here.
.: 48:06 :: 22.0 MB :: 24 March 2006 :.

018: If there's one thing we decided about V for Vendetta, it's that it needs to be seen multiple times to be fully appreciated. If there are two things, it's that the film is a wonderful exploration of the other side of terrorism. Also: the self-proclaimed video game fanatic, D.W., debuts the Gaming Guru's Guide.
.: 1:10:37 :: 32.3 MB :: 21 March 2006 :.

Quickie 003: Ian debuts his comic book movie news segment, while we breeze through several topics and the upcoming list.
.: 33:07 :: 15.1 MB :: 14 March 2006 :.

017: The best way to describe Ultraviolet is to call it eye candy. Sure, the plot has a sizeable hole and the dialog is mostly expositional, but it's oh so gorgeous! Kellen and Anticipation are back, and this time he reviews Witch Hunter Robin.
.: 1:01:12 :: 28.0 MB :: 07 March 2006 :.

016: In this all-vampire episode, we review Already Dead by Charlie Huston as well as the Vertigo comic book Bite Club. D.W. chimes in with a Castlevania retrospective, while Ian, James and Kellen review Blade, Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge and Hellsing: Impure Souls (respectively).
.: 2:03:41 :: 56.6 MB :: 28 February 2006 :.

015: Boo-ya! Oh wait. Cyborg never actually shouts that in episode 103 of Smallville. What a shame. It might have livened things up a little. Listener DarthSkeptical wrote a rather detailed explanation as to why Clark must be head over heels for Lana (at least for now), and we respond. James presents the third installment of Animazing Segment, and takes a look at R.O.D. - Read or Die. And a new segment debuts: Anticipation by Kellen Scrivens!
.: 1:19:16 :: 36.2 MB :: 21 February 2006 :.

014: Overly complicated deaths? Check. Cartoony gore? Check. Clich�d characters? Check. Great story? Hmm... nope. Good story? No again. Passable story? Nope. Subpar story with glaring plot holes? Check! It's Final Destination 3. And it's This Month in Horror time!
.: 1:20:42 :: 36.9 MB :: 14 February 2006 :.

013: It's all about Runaways: Teenage Wasteland this time around. Sure, we liked it more than the first volume, but the hype still seems like a lot of hot air. Also, the trivia question for the month of February is asked.
.: 59:25 :: 27.2 MB :: 07 February 2006 :.

012: The last two episodes of Teen Titans have finally aired, and, as good as they were, they really didn't feel like a proper finale. Also, episode 100 of Smallville aired this past week, and someone very close to Clark has died. And you better believe we have something to say about this! Lastly, we reveal the winner of January's trivia contest.
.: 1:19:29 :: 36.3 MB :: 31 January 2006 :.

011: Despite our high hopes for Red Eye, the movie fell flat thanks to Lisa's unbelievably heroic actions. Conversely, we didn't know what to expect when we bought Equilibrium, which blew us away! And James returns with another Animazing Segment.
.: 1:02:02 :: 28.4 MB :: 24 January 2006 :.

010: Though Gravity: Big City Super Hero and Runaways: Pride & Joy are both worth purchasing, we felt the former is a notch above the much-hyped latter. And Scott Tibbs chimes in with his take on local politics and the continued assault on video games.
.: 1:02:09 :: 28.4 MB :: 17 January 2006 :.

009: We're back from vacation and ready to get behind the microphone again. This time around we discuss our new sponsors, DCBS and InStockTrades. Along those same lines, Mike's first monthly order from DCBS arrived. Wolf Creek is up for review, and Cash's This Month in Horror returns for its January installment.
.: 1:05:20 :: 29.9 MB :: 10 January 2006 :.

Quickie 002: Christmas has come and gone, so Jen and I sat down to discuss our gifts. Also, December's trivia question is answered. Well, not really.
.: 23:41 :: 10.8 MB :: 27 December 2005 :.

008: Owly is the cutest book ever, and the joy he brings to his friends needs to be shared with everyone worldwide. Yeah, Burnout Revenge is a great game, but Burnout 3: Takedown was that much better. Despite the fact that it's a two-plus hour movie, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe could have been longer. That is, if it wanted to capture that epic Lord of the Rings essence. And the very first Animazing Segment debuts!
.: 1:16:11 :: 34.8 MB :: 20 December 2005 :.

007: Two hours of cartoon talk! Lots and lots of cartoon talk.
.: 2:06:37 :: 57.9 MB :: 13 December 2005 :.

Quickie 001: December's trivia question is asked, and a new segment is born! Cower in fear, all ye who enter... er, listen. Cower!
.: 25:33 :: 11.7 MB :: 06 December 2005 :.

006 [w/ spoilers]: Essentially the same as the unspoiled version, except this one spoils the second half of Invincible: The Ultimate Collection, vol. 1. You've been warned!
.: 1:07:45 :: 31.0 MB :: 29 November 2005 :.

006: What is DCBS and why has it caused Mike to end his 15 year relationship with the local comic shop? Despite the hefty price, Invincible: The Ultimate Collection, vol. 1 is a must-have comic for fans new and old. (So is Marvel Team-Up #14.) Half-Life 2 is a near perfect port of the original PC title, unfortunately placed load times and all. And while Mike loves Dawn of the Dead (2004), Jenny wasn't all that crazy about it.
.: 59:57 :: 27.4 MB :: 29 November 2005 :.

005: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is out, and Jenny has her review. The Superman Returns teaser trailer gave both of us goose bumps. Hardcore fanboys will love the faithful continuity of Green Lantern: Rebirth, but not so dedicated readers might find it difficult to understand. And while Rob Zombie's The Devil's Rejects is better than House of 1000 Corpses, it isn't necessarily good.
.: 1:08:41 :: 31.4 MB :: 22 November 2005 :.

DVD Commentary: American Psycho 2: The richly satirical American Psycho is a classic horror / thriller if there ever was one, and is one of the few that demands its viewers think. American Psycho 2, not so much.
.: 1:29:20 :: 40.9 MB :: 18 November 2005 :.
.: instructions: Place the DVD into your player, and turn on your iPod as you wait for the main menu to load. Cue up this episode and await further instructions from us before starting the movie. :.

004: WE3 might be grossly violent, but it's one of the most heartwarming and bittersweet stories ever told. Despite his initial disdain for the game, Mike's decided to give Soulcalibur III a second chance. And the rabid Saw fans have their say!
.: 1:21:30 :: 37.3 MB :: 15 November 2005 :.

003: We've decided that Astonishing X-Men: Gifted is a must-read comic book, but what about the follow-up? DC Comics has finally released Showcase, their black and white answer to Marvel's Essentials line of TPBs, and they're so awesome! And we answer some feedback.
.: 1:03:06 :: 28.8 MB :: 08 November 2005 :.

002: I examine Saw II a little further. Nintendogs is cute and oddly addictive, but is it a game? And, you know, I'm not all that excited about the imminent DVD release of Revenge of the Sith. Plus, the first monthly trivia question is asked.
.: 15:23 :: 7.0 MB :: 01 November 2005 :.

001: In the inaugural episode of Earth-2.net: The Show I discuss the brand new PlayStation 2 title Shadow of the Colossus, the "Crossover" storyline spanning from Ultimate Fantastic Four #21 to 23, and the upcoming Saw II.
.: 34:11 :: 32.8 MB :: 25 October 2005 :.
