1131: In 2002, the BBC polled the British public as to who they considered to be the 100 Greatest Britons of all time. Because this poll did not include a 17-year-old Ian Wilson nor a 19-year-old Tom Hemmings, the two men in question, now in their late 30s, set about to right this wrong by beginning their own countdown of who they consider the 100 Greatest Britons.

.: 1:46:13 :: 54.0 MB :: 24 September 2019 :.

1075: We all know that the odd-numbered Star Trek films are trash, right? Not so much, actually. While Star Trek III: The Search for Spock might not be the most exciting Trek film ever made, it does introduce Christopher Lloyd as the ruthless Klingon Commander Kruge, lays groundwork for future films, and sees the destruction of the beloved Enterprise. It also begs some hard-to-discuss questions pertaining to the resurrection of Spock, and demonstrates some shameful password etiquette. Please listen in as Dan, Dave, and Mike have a blast creating The Spock File, and singing their way through the discussion. (Note: This is a repackaged version of The Edge of Forever 49.)

The Flickchart Forum sees Ian (a paralegal), Dan (a geriatric), and Chris (a professor) take note of and rank all the films name-checked in the song "Science Fiction / Double Feature" from The Rocky Horror Show. It is a veritable time warp focusing on cult horror and science fiction movies from many years ago. So just how does the discussion turn to Power Rangers, "Steve! From Vancouver," and interminable ape-based films directed by Peter Jackson? The answer to that, as well as the forum's individual introductions to Rocky Horror, lie within!
.: 1:37:25 :: 48.3 MB :: 03 September 2019 :.

1072: Stepping outside of his usual arena, The Flying Danishman, Christian Honore, goes three rounds with The Fierce Chicken of Bristol, Tom Stavros Hemmings, over sports.

.: 2:02:50 :: 61.5 MB :: 27 August 2019 :.

.: 4:07:15 :: 121.6 MB :: 25 February 2017 :.

You start noticing the similarities. Then you realize how much the failure of films geared towards teenage girls is partially to blame due to them. You also get a bad hangover.

Then, in a team-up some thought would never happen, and others thought probably shouldn't, Dave Probert and Pandy Wilson join forces in what is supposed to be a review of their media consumption of 2016. Yet, somehow, they also end up talking about darts-themed game shows from the 1980s, wrestling from the 1990s (particularly how Vince McMahon would have booked Emmeline Pankhurst), nitpick the film Nativity, and recommend a variety of Hammer films.

Then, in spirit of The Twelve Days of Christmas, and the 50th anniversary of his passing, Christian, Pandy, and Kelly discuss each of their 12 favorite Walt Disney songs.

712: For better or worse, how we watch TV has changed. In this TV 101, Will explores how we've gone from four black and white channels to weekend binge sessions. How did we get here, what are some of the benefits of binging, and why is it the same as smoking a joint? All this and Julia Stiles as the most embarrassing hacker of all time.
.: 49:30 :: 24.2 MB :: 22 April 2014 :.

711: For the first proper Comic Reel-lief of 2014, Ian Wilson casts his views on two sequels of past comic book movies. Those being, 300: Rise of an Empire and Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Spoilers are abound, so listen at your audio peril!
.: 27:40 :: 13.8 MB :: 15 April 2014 :.

710: In this edition of Earth-2-in-1, Daredevil is unsuccessful in his attempt to steal the Fantasticar (Marvel Two-in-One #3), Batman puts on a wacky hat (The Brave and the Bold #112), and Dan tells a Marvel versus DC tale that sends Mike into a laughing fit.

709: April is here, and so is this month's Previews episode.
.: 43:40 :: 21.5 MB :: 01 April 2014 :.

708: Once more, Mike is joined by Dave and Ian for an installment of Pulp Diction! This time out, the guys put a cap on their loose aviation trilogy by discussing Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. Additional topics include the history of air raid sirens, the brilliance of Pokémon Snap, and weird names for kids. Also, by the end of the review, they reveal their next two movies.

706: Hey, Gurlfriend returns as Will and Hannah discuss The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Did they like it more than the original? Along the way, an argument for polyamory pops up, bad accents are attempted, and wubbies are mourned. Oh, and Will verbally fellates Jennifer Lawrence. A lot.
.: 1:10:45 :: 34.5 MB :: 08 March 2014 :.

705: Faster than you can say "Zany Bob Haney," Dan and Mike return with another installment of Earth-2-in-1. This time around, their attention is on Marvel Two-in-One #2 and The Brave and the Bold #111.

.: 1:05:10 :: 31.6 MB :: 04 February 2014 :.

.: 42:15 :: 20.7 MB :: 28 January 2014 :.

700: This year, Earth-2.net celebrates its 10th anniversary. As such, each month you'll be treated to something special on the site. Kicking off the festivities is this gem from deep within the Earth-2.net archives. In 2008, Des and Mike recorded four episodes of a podcast that was to be called The Fantasticast. Their aim was to read and discuss every single issue of Fantastic Four, starting with Fantastic Four #1-4 from 1961. Why did the show never become a fully realized reality? For that answer, you'll need to listen to Mike's intro. After that, however, you'll hear the first installment of said unaired show, filled with now-dated references, one of the best Freudian slips ever, letters of dubious origin, and so much more. Enjoy!
.: 1:53:30 :: 55.0 MB :: 21 January 2014 :.

699: Jason Fabok, Yanick Paquette, and David Finch discuss digital art, the movement away from inkers, and more in this panel from the 2013 Christmas Comic Con 2.
.: 34:00 :: 16.8 MB :: 07 January 2014 :.

698: First up, a panel featuring Arvell Jones and Keith Pollard from the 2013 Christmas Comic Con 2. Then, Mike gives his thoughts on The Amazing Spider-Man #700.1 and 700.2.
.: 33:15 :: 16.4 MB :: 04 January 2014 :.

697: Before the year is out, there's just enough time to squeeze in a 30th anniversary special for a show that most history geeks hold close to their hearts: Blackadder. Hosted by Earth-2.net's very own Blackadder and Baldrick (Christian Honoré and Ian Wilson), this episode runs through the unaired 1982 pilot, all four series, plus the specials: Blackadder: The Cavalier Years, Blackadder's Christmas Carol, and Blackadder: Back & Forth. Quite simply, it's the whole damn dynasty!
.: 2:18:15 :: 66.7 MB :: 31 December 2013 :.

696: The final Hey, Gurlfriend of 2013 chills out by looking at Disney's most recent animated film: Frozen. From the beautiful music to Kristen Bell, there's so much gushing going on. Also, Will gives some advice to live by.
.: 59:05 :: 28.8 MB :: 28 December 2013 :.

695: The 2013 Earth-2.net: The Show Advent Calendar finishes with a little Disney magic as Kellen and Will review Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse. While it may reuse some footage from the show it's based on, how can you go wrong when you wrap it around "Donald on Ice," "Pluto's Christmas Tree," "The Nutcracker," and "Mickey's Christmas Carol." Merry Christmas everyone!
.: 57:45 :: 28.2 MB :: 25 December 2013 :.

694: 'Twas the day before Christmas and on the podcast, Kellen and Chris were there having a blast. Watching episodes from The Simpsons' golden age, and not new stuff that might send them into a rage. "Miracle on Evergreen Terrace" is first, where Bart creates for Springfield a robbery thirst. Following that is "Grift of the Magi," where school may be saved but for deception and lies. And while I know versions of this poem like this are quite trite, I still say Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
.: 59:45 :: 29.0 MB :: 24 December 2013 :.

693: As Kellen and Adham Fisher find out, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is at first glance a harmless Christmas special from Rankin / Bass. However, it doesn't take long to realize that this special contains the most evil character in any Christmas special, worse than the Grinch, the Wet Bandits, and the Satanic Woodland Critters. No, it's not the Abominable Snow Monster of the North. It's Donner.
.: 56:40 :: 27.5 MB :: 23 December 2013 :.

692: As far as modern classic Christmas movies go, Kellen doesn't think there are many better than 2003's Elf. Find out why he feels the movie walks the fine line of playing with tropes, while being so genuine at the same time.
.: 41:25 :: 20.3 MB :: 22 December 2013 :.

691: It's a wonderful podcast today on Earth-2.net: The Show, as Will Ackerman takes over with a TV 101 all about It's a Wonderful Life. Then Will joins Kellen for the 2013 Earth-2.net: The Show Advent Calendar, where they review "It's a Wonderful Tiny Toons Christmas Special."
.: 1:14:45 :: 36.2 MB :: 21 December 2013 :.

690: Family Guy has never been one to shy away from corrupting wholesome childhood imagery in the name of laughs. To Kellen and Tom Hemmings, this is no more evident than in "Road to the North Pole," which sees a dystopian Santa's Workshop and a gift delivery that turns to a B&E / double murder.
.: 50:30 :: 24.5 MB :: 20 December 2013 :.

689: What happens when you take one of the greatest political satirists going today, remove said political satirizing, and replace it with a hodgepodge of musicians singing songs of wildly varying qualities? You get A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift of All! To decipher the good from the bad, we turn to the Colbert Nation's own Kellen Scirvens and James Trenchard.
.: 43:10 :: 21.2 MB :: 19 December 2013 :.

688: Frosty the Snowman is one of Rankin / Bass' most well-known and beloved pieces of work. Frosty Returns, despite its title, has very little to do with the original. Kellen brings Adham Fisher back to the 2013 Earth-2.net: The Show Advent Calendar, and you'd be surprised who has the most negative view.
.: 1:03:35 :: 30.9 MB :: 18 December 2013 :.

687: In the 1990s, very few cartoons were as consistently funny as Animaniacs. However, as Kellen and Will found out, that level of consistency doesn't necessarily apply to Christmas episodes. Listen for yourself as they review "'Twas the Day Before Christmas" and "A Christmas Plotz."
.: 45:15 :: 22.0 MB :: 17 December 2013 :.

686: Kellen is joined by Chris Johnson to review one of the world's most beloved Christmas specials. From the mind of Dr. Seuss, the animation of Chuck Jones, the vocal stylings of Boris Karloff, and anchored by one of the most well-known Christmas song of all-time comes Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
.: 30:20 :: 14.9 MB :: 16 December 2013 :.

685: Someone at some point in the 1990s thought it would be a good idea to have Arnold Schwarzenegger star in a family Christmas comedy movie. The result was Jingle All the Way, and Kellen is joined by James Trenchard to make sense of it all.
.: 1:03:40 :: 31.0 MB :: 15 December 2013 :.

684: When it comes to unconventional Christmas celebrations, does it get much more unconventional than singing pieces of poo and a blood orgy involving adorable woodland critters? No, of course not. To make sense of it all, Kellen and Ian Wilson review South Park's "Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics" and "Woodland Critter Christmas."
.: 1:00:30 :: 29.5 MB :: 14 December 2013 :.

683: One of the best parts of Christmas is the chance to get together with old friends and family you don't often see. While Christmas in Japan is very different from most of the Western world, Digimon's "A Very Digi Christmas" makes this a principle tennant of its story. Kellen is joined by Will Ackerman to discuss this episode.
.: 30:00 :: 14.7 MB :: 13 December 2013 :.

682: Kellen Scrivens loves Christmas. Adham Fisher does not. Kellen and Adham sat down to review Olive, the Other Reindeer. Kellen thinks that the special's opening number is fun, Adham is offended by the first line. Oh what fun awaits.
.: 1:08:05 :: 33.0 MB :: 12 December 2013 :.

681: Who doesn't love a Christmas episode that has its first airing in October and does not fit in with the present continuity? If that person is you, then you may not be a fan of Pokemon's "Holiday Hi-Jynx." To find out what Kellen and Chris Johnson felt about this episode you'll have to listen in as the 2013 Earth-2.net: The Show Advent Calendar continues.
.: 34:40 :: 16.9 MB :: 11 December 2013 :.

680: Christmas is about spending time with your family, be they blood, close friends, or the guys with the good drugs in prison. It's about making sure that you can give the best things to your family, regardless of the way how. And it's about looking back on how things used to be. To that end, Kellen and Brett Scrivens review the Trailer Park Boys special "Dear Santa Claus, Go Fuck Yourself."
.: 48:55 :: 23.9 MB :: 10 December 2013 :.

679: It's 09 December, which means it's the day that Abed and his mom meet to watch Rudolph, unless something new has happened in her life. In which case, Abed's world may degenerate into some sort of stop-motion animation. To bring the mood up, the gang tries to inject some glee into their lives, but is it enough to get them to Regionals? Find out as Kellen and Tom Hemmings review Community's Christmas episodes "Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas" and "Regional Holiday Music."
.: 1:02:55 :: 30.5 MB :: 09 December 2013 :.

678: No matter what decade it is, some things never change. Be it teenagers getting smashed at a party on Christmas vacation, a neighbor with really loud Christmas decorations, or some people being very cynical of the season. It's all here as Kellen and Chris Johnson look at two That '70s Show episodes: "Hyde's Christmas Rager" and "An Eric Forman Christmas."
.: 44:35 :: 21.7 MB :: 08 December 2013 :.

677: They say if the women don't find you handsome, they can at least find you handy. Very few people adhere to that philosophy quite as much as the incomparable Red Green. Join Kellen as we learn to cook our own Christmas dinner in a car, build our own one-horse open sleigh, and create a mobile Christmas carol machine as he reviews "A Wonderful Red Green Christmas" and "A Very Merry Red Green Christmas."
.: 40:45 :: 19.9 MB :: 07 December 2013 :.

676: Every kid has hoped that it could be Christmas every day of the year, but how would the world work if that really was the case? This is examined as Kellen and James Trenchard review The Fairly OddParents episode "Christmas Everyday!"
.: 30:54 :: 15.1 MB :: 06 December 2013 :.

675: While there are not going to be any Doctor Who Christmas episodes covered during the 2013 Earth-2.net: The Show Advent Calendar (you can hear those reviewed on Bigger on the Inside), today we get a Dalek appearance. Kellen and Ian Wilson discuss the Christmas special of one of Britain's most iconic characters in Merry Christmas, Mr. Bean.
.: 48:26 :: 23.6 MB :: 05 December 2013 :.

674: Kellen takes a trip way up North to the Evergreen Forest for day four of the 2013 Earth-2.net: The Show Advent Calendar to review The Christmas Raccoons. Following that, Mike reads through the December Previews.

671: Kellen and Will open up the 2013 Earth-2.net: The Show Advent Calendar with A Charlie Brown Christmas!
.: 35:32 :: 17.4 MB :: 01 December 2013 :.

670: In the not-too-distant past
Last Sunday AD
There was a guy named Will
Not too different from you or me
He did a segment called TV 101
And there was a show that he really loved
He recorded an episode for its 25th year
But then he ended up gushing
And then it was so clear
If you can't wait to hear how it all started
And other history facts (la la la)
Then repeat to yourself, "It's just a show,
I should really just relax
For Mystery Science Theater 3000!"
.: 1:05:28 :: 31.6 MB :: 26 November 2013 :.

669: First, Ian Wilson looks at Thor: The Dark World in a solo Comic Reel-lief. Then Mike, having just completed the awesome cartoon that is Young Justice, discusses two Young Justice comic books: Young Justice #1 from 1998 and Young Justice #0 from 2011.

667: Ian Wilson is back for Comic Reel-lief, and Tom Hemmings is back as well, meaning it's another lists segment! The two Englishmen look at the best and worst hero characterization under the Bizarro rules system first pioneered by Reddick & Sims. Ian can criticize DC and laud Marvel, but not the reverse. Whilst Tom can't slag off DC, nor praise Marvel. The rules are relaxed for their tertiary list: most evil villainous plan. Which character is condemned for wearing Aryan makeup? Who struggles to pronounce Rorschach? And just what will the banner image end up being?
.: 2:54:35 :: 84.1 MB :: 02 November 2013 :.

666: For the eighth anniversary of Earth-2.net: The Show, the episode number says it all! It's episode 666, and all things horror are on display.

Will and Chris dive into Supernatural, and Des brings Darryll to The Show for a chat about the short film "Familiar." After that, it's Will, Hannah, and Rosemary's Baby. Then, Shana and Mike cap things off with Poltergeist.
.: 7:19:36 :: 211.4 MB :: 29 October 2013 :.

.: 1:08:32 :: 33.4 MB :: 08 October 2013 :.

333: Most comic book fans who attend conventions are polite people who are willing to wait in lines for autographs and sketches.

.: 49:45 :: 23.2 MB :: 31 July 2009 :.

305: Tweaking the origins of superheroes is nothing new, but in 1985 DC rebooted their entire line of comics � allowing a handful of creative masterminds the opportunity to reshape classic characters.

173: For six months Des and Mike have been discussing Countdown, and it hasn't fared so well. We're now at the halfway point (30, 29, 28, 27 and 26); have their attitudes about DC's weekly series changed?
.: 4:02:52 :: 111 MB :: 16 November 2007 :.

172: This week Des and Mike discuss five Marvel comic books, with those being Avengers: The Initiative #7, Captain Marvel #1, Ghost Rider Annual #1, Punisher War Journal #13 and X-Men: Die by the Sword #3.
.: 54:55 :: 25.1 MB :: 13 November 2007 :.

171: What causes Jenny to fall into another fit of laughter? Mike says the new red Hulk looks like a what? And why should Rob Liefeld's detractors try the new Youngblood series? All these questions (and more) are answered as Jenny and Mike discuss the November Previews!
.: 1:06:03 :: 30.2 MB :: 09 November 2007 :.

170: Of the five comics Des and Mike reviewed this week (Astonishing X-Men #23, Marvel Adventures Spider-Man #33, Ms. Marvel #21, Mystic Arcana: Sister Grimm and Silver Surfer: In Thy Name #1), they greatly disagreed on two. In fact, in response to Mike's love for one of the comics, Des said, "I'm shocked this book isn't cancelled yet." Ouch!
.: 52:09 :: 23.8 MB :: 06 November 2007 :.

169: As they review Saw IV, Jenny and Mike explore the two major plot holes in the film, but they aren't what you think.
.: 2:02:00 :: 55.8 MB :: 02 November 2007 :.

168: Here we are again with five more early comic book reviews. This time Des and Mike cover Daredevil Annual #1, Iron Man #23, Mythos: Fantastic Four, Sub-Mariner #5 and Ultimate Power #8. Though they agree on most of the books, one of the issues has them at different ends of the spectrum.
.: 51:09 :: 23.4 MB :: 30 October 2007 :.

167: Earth-2.net: The Show is two years old! To celebrate, Jenny and Mike recap JemCon 2007, and then they review 30 Days of Night. And who's that with a review of 300? Why, it's Ian Wilson!

163: Before discussing the October Previews, Jenny and Mike have a frank conversation about the forthcoming Saw IV and movies of its ilk.
.: 1:22:58 :: 37.9 MB :: 12 October 2007 :.

162: Did First Born #2 surpass the greatness of the first issue? Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #24 has a lot of hype behind it, but did the second chapter in the "One More Day" storyline impress? It might look pretty, but what of the story that makes up New Warriors #5? Is Punisher War Journal #12 the best Punisher book ever? And who didn't finish reading Runaways #28?
.: 50:30 :: 23.1 MB :: 09 October 2007 :.

161: This week Des and Mike took early looks at Howard the Duck #1, Ms. Marvel #20, Omega: The Unknown #1, Uncanny X-Men #491 and Wolverine Annual #1. Which book had them on opposite sides of the grading scale? Here's a clue: it's was a #1.
.: 55:20 :: 25.3 MB :: 02 October 2007 :.

160: Monday, 28 September 1987 was quite possibly the greatest day in geek history. On that day, exactly 20 years ago today, Star Trek: The Next Generation launched on syndicated television. Since then science fiction television has boomed, producing such shows as Quantum Leap, seaQuest DSV, Stargate, Battlestar Galactica and a countless host of others. Though they're all grossly different, each show owes a debt of gratitude to Star Trek: The Next Generation. In this special edition of Earth-2.net: The Show, Jenny and Mike honor ST:TNG by discussing their favorite characters, moments and episodes. Join them as they talk for over three hours about The Next Generation!
.: 3:35:20 :: 98.5 MB :: 28 September 2007 :.

159: Of the five mostly excellent books this week (Franklin Richards: Monster Mash #1, Marvel Adventures Iron Man # 5, Punisher MAX Annual #1, Ultimate Spider-Man #114 and X-Men #203), two honestly shocked Des and Mike with their greatness!

158: "The angels are coming for you. But listen: your life could depend on this. Don't blink. Don't even blink! Blink and you're dead! They are fast! Faster than you can believe! Don't turn your back! Don't look away! And don't blink! Good luck." That's right, we're talking about "Blink," the awesomely wonderful episode of Doctor Who.
.: 1:05:25 :: 29.9 MB :: 21 September 2007 :.

157: In last week's Is It Wednesday Yet? Des and Mike didn't quite agree. This week the pair reviews Captain America #30, Marvel Comics Presents #1, New X-Men #42, Penance: Relentless #1 and Terror, Inc. #2. Are things any different this time around?
.: 1:04:37 :: 29.5 MB :: 18 September 2007 :.

156: Des and Mike go through five issues of Countdown this month (39, 38, 37, 36 and 35), pointing out the good, the bad and the ugly along the way. Oh, and Des was right about... ah, that would be telling!
.: 4:11:56 :: 115 MB :: 14 September 2007 :.

.: 1:45:54 :: 48.4 MB :: 13 September 2007 :.

154: In previous installments of Is It Wednesday Yet?, Des and Mike have pretty much seen eye to eye, this week all that changes. Which books couldn't they come to terms on? Well, here's the list to choose from: Cyblade Pilot Season #1, New Avengers #34, Nova #6, Parade (with Fireworks) #1 and Thor #3.
.: 59:52 :: 27.4 MB :: 11 September 2007 :.

.: 47:55 :: 21.9 MB :: 13 August 2007 :.

.: 1:25:39 :: 39.2 MB :: 30 July 2007 :.

129: Ian reviews all three (yes, three) Fantastic Four movies, and tosses in some comic book movie news to boot. Before that, however, Jenny and Mike discuss everything from their lack of interest in The Simpsons Movie to Mike's bursting desire to see The Dark Knight teaser trailer to haircuts.
.: 1:03:38 :: 29.1 MB :: 27 July 2007 :.

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 :.

.: 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.

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?!

.: 1:06:33 :: 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?

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!

.: 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 :.

.: 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!

.: 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 :.

.: 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 :.

061: Is Who Wants to Be a Superhero? the best of the worst reality shows, or simply the worst? For that matter, is it even a reality show?

.: 3:10:27 :: 87.1 MB :: 14 August 2006 :.

049: In our third Civil War episode, we discussed Civil War #3, Civil War: Front Line #2-4, way too many tie-ins, the recent thwarting of terrorist attacks in London, breastfeeding, gun control and one of us finally agrees with the other... sort of.
.: 2:30:31 :: 68.9 MB :: 11 August 2006 :.

042: Kellen and Ian take control!
.: 37:44 :: 17.2 MB :: 19 July 2006 :.

.: 1:23:39 :: 38.2 MB :: 14 July 2006 :.

039: Superman Returns! Mike rants!
.: 1:29:53 :: 41.1 MB :: 07 July 2006 :.

.: 1:08:29 :: 31.3 MB :: 03 July 2006 :.

.: 1:18:03 :: 35.7 MB :: 27 June 2006 :.

.: 1:01:47 :: 28.2 MB :: 06 June 2006 :.

029: Marvel: X-Men Changes, a Wizard World Philly 2006 panel.

.: 1:56:38 :: 53.3 MB :: 30 May 2006 :.

026: We spoil the heck out of the fifth Smallville season finale, and gush over the Superman Returns trailer!
.: 1:05:22 :: 29.9 MB :: 18 May 2006 :.

025: It's time to play the music. It's time to light the lights. It's time to get things started on the most sensational, inspirational, celebrational, Muppetational... this is what we call the Muppet Show!
.: 2:24:09 :: 65.9 MB :: 16 May 2006 :.

024: In our very first interview, we spoke with James D. Deaux IV (for 90 minutes) about all things anime and manga!
.: 1:34:47 :: 43.3 MB :: 09 May 2006 :.

023: Brain Age isn't just a game... well, it isn't a game at all. It's more of a daily exercise program for your brain, one which you just so happen to play on the Nintendo DS.
.: 58:00 :: 26.5 MB :: 02 May 2006 :.

022: We're back with loads of video game, comic book and movie news, as well as a review of Silent Hill. And you've seen James' Onegai Twins music video, now listen to his review of the controversial series.
.: 1:24:48 :: 38.8 MB :: 25 April 2006 :.

021: D.W. and Ian took control of the show while we took the week off. (Ian's review of V for Vendetta does contain spoilers!)
.: 1:06:31 :: 30.4 MB :: 11 April 2006 :.

020: Who ya gonna call? Ghostbusters! Kellen, the anime-reviewing boy wonder, takes a long, critical look at Peach Girl in the latest Anticipation.
.: 1:08:42 :: 31.4 MB :: 04 April 2006 :.

Quickie 004: Our VCR broke, leaving us unable to review Ghostbusters as promised... and, thus, without a topic for the week. However, James is here with his review of Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi.
.: 30:15 :: 13.8 MB :: 28 March 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 :.
