    Over a year ago, we had the great pleasure of having one of my favorite artists Michael Avon Oeming on our show. At the time his book The Victories had just released it's first trade paperback, Powers Bureau was in it's first few issues and we also got some great stories from the FX pilot for Powers that never was.   Well, this week on Booked, Mike returns along with Taki Soma to talk with me (The Stevil Dead). A lot of new stuff to talk about as Mike and Taki have just released their first issue of their new book wit Image Comics, Sinergy, a bad ass demon hunter book. I ask them how the idea for the book came about and how the experience differed from working with Taki to working with Brian Michael Bendis on Powers or Bryan Glass on Mice Templar. We also get into the age old question of who would be on their zombie survival routine.   I also asked every question I could think of pertaining to the December release of the Playstation Network's first ever TV show, Powers. How does it differ from the FX pilot? What was the trailer unveiling experience at New York Comic Con and what was it like meeting comedian, actor, marathon runner and linguist Eddie Izzard, because, believe me, I'm damn jealous.   There's so much more that we talked about, so check it out, then head to your local comic shop and pick up Sinergy #1, on shelves now!

    For a comic fans, this slate of up coming movies from now until 2020 is a pretty insane treat, whether the movies turn out great or not. The sheer notion that we get to see some of our favourite characters and stories come to life on the big screen is something our younger selves couldn't even dream of. Between the big two giants we have over 20 movies and that only counts the DC Warner and Marvel Studios owned movies. That's mind blowing!   Unfortunately one company has been pretty consistent in giving us possibly the greatest comic films of all time, while the other has muddied up their waters with absolute cinematic blunders, rushed and confused franchise building and that "no jokes rule" rumour painted a pretty cold picture. Yes, it's no contest the Marvel has decimated its competitor DC/Legendary, a company that is so seemingly desperate to have what Marvel has going, that they fast tracked an expansive universe on the back of a seriously flawed film.   On our newest episode, Stevil, Rob and J.J. Webb breakdown each companies releases spanning the next six years and compare the approaches to how the slated films were unveiled to the public. With a few of the announcements coming out of nowhere, we form our opinions of what will be needed for some of these movies to be successful, what some of our dream casting ideas are and it's pretty safe to say that we're all hoping this Wonder Woman movie is going to be huge.

    Ben Morse, editor at Marvel.com and, best of all, friend of Booked, returns to gives us a rundown of the happenings at New York Comic Con and we try to pry a bit at some of the interesting events that were announced. The key word there is try. After having missed San Diego Comic Con, Ben tells us about getting used to the Con feeling and energy again, especially with Marvel hitting big the day before in Times Square with Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. Not only did legends like Kurt Busiek show up but we got the monster announcement of Secret Wars hitting Summer next year. Did we get Ben to give us some teasers? No, no, we did not. Ben likes having his job at Marvel a little too much and we can appreciate. We also discuss some of the other events in 2015 like Civil War, Age of Ultron vs. Marvel Zombies and Planet Hulk where we get a team up with Captain America as they fight Hulks with Tom Selleck mustaches? We also have some current Marvel talk as Ben informs us of how awesome Secret Avengers writer Ales Kot is, teases what's to come in Avengers and X-Men Axis and we think maybe Magneto has pushed the line too far now, even at the cost of mutant life. Lots to chat and speculate about in this episode, so get reading those panels!

    A few months back Jenosaur and I (Stevil) were invited to do a panel at the North West Fan Fest by our friend Casey White of ShogunGamer.com, to talk about pop culture's effect on today's media, so basically comics, comics and more comics. On this panel I had the pleasure of meeting Aaron Golden, co-founder of Living Myth Magazine and writer of the column 'God of Comics' and honestly, I don't know why it took so long to have him on the show. His story of Warren Ellis pitching Next Wave to Marvel solidified his spot in the guest chair alone.   I had the chance to chat with Aaron over Skype and we settled into some pretty deep comic TV and movie discussions about all the negative reaction to Gotham, why he'd checked out of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and he enlightens me on the "fat guy with a power ring" movie that opened the door for Christopher Nolan to reboot the world's greatest detective.   Delving into the comic pages themselves, Aaron tells us his origin story. From learning to read with a Transformers comic, getting a Batman recommendation from an unlikely source, to becoming a novelist himself, our guest shows and proves his knowledge and gives us an abundance of food for thought.   Check out Aaron's God of Comics column here:  http://livingmythmagazine.com/blog/category/reviews/goc/

    Stevil and Rob Lobster welcome you to another episode of Booked! We start off in the realm of TV, where we give some love to our co-host Katie Findlay on the massively successful debut of her new show How To Get Away With Murder. Then we move into some of the comic related debuts of the week.   Is Gotham a little too heavy handed on the references? Do we wish it was just a straight forward Gotham Central adaptation? Our hosts also ask listeners to give it a little faith past the pilot, because when has a show ever been decided by it's pilot? Also on the TNT network, a Teen Titans series has gotten the green light with Nightwing being the rumored leader. What can we expect from this? Stevil is really hoping for Cassie Sandmark.   Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. also started their sophomore season, starting with a quick peek at Agent Carter. What can we expect from this prequel series? We will watch it all day if it has Dum Dum Duggan! And at the same time, can Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. continue the momentum it gained in the last part of it's first season? Bring on Mockingbird!   With so much to talk about in the TV world, Stevil and Rob get into the hype on the Tick revival at Amazon, the new Supergirl series, and whether or not Ollie Queen is a smart enough adversary for Ra's Al Ghul. We also talk the sad news of the Y the Last Man movie being dead in the water. Will we ever see Yorrick's story on the big screen? Is it better suited as a TV series?   Delving into some really comic talk, our hosts talk DC's big event Future's End. What were the high points? What are the lasting ramifications of this? Addressing the rumors that all the worlds will collide, Rob has worries that the proper respect may or may not be given to fan revered timelines. Words of wisdom are also given to the Batgirl creative team: Let's move on with less James Gordon Jr. for a bit.   Finally, a loving review of a book Stevil brought to the last cast as his recommendation. Rob has finally picked up his copy of Bryan Lee O'Malley's Seconds and blew through it in four hours. This means the guys can discuss it at length, as it definitely hits home for both of them. For Rob, it bring the looming reality of his thirtieth birthday that much closer and Stevil, well, dealing with exes usually sucks, we can all relate to that, right?   So join us for some deeply nerdy comic talk and let us know what you think in the comics below. Did you pick up Seconds? Or hate Gotham? What should be done with Y the Last Man? Think about it and keep reading those panels people!
