Dark Roast Citizens! This week, we talk all sorts of twists and reveals with some brand new comics in Blackbird #3, Batman #60, Justice League #13, Venom #9, Shazam #1 But before we get into comics, Jerry continues to talk about Destiny 2 as he just can’t seem to get enough of the game, especially now that he has all the expansions! Victor makes up with Dokkan Battle as he dives right back into the Dragon Ball mobile game HOWEVER! Victor is cautiously optimistic about the direction of the game. We shall see! The coffee we’ll be brewing this week is called Adipy roasted by Dispatch Coffee. This is a new roaster to our show, so we’re very excited to see what kind of flavour we’ll be getting. Also! We’ve got a brand new segment this week, and we think it’s going to be a ton of fun moving forward. Let us know if you enjoy this new segment or not. We won’t say what it is here to keep it a surprise, so be sure to check out the episode for it! What did you think about this episode? Were you surprised at the reveals in Blackbird #3? What is his end game in Batman? Where do the villains go from here in Justice League? Will Eddie do it in Venom? Did Shazam live up to the hype in the first issue for you? Lots of questions! Let us know what you think! SUBSCRIBE TO THE SHOW!

We found that there were some awesome fan made superhero ideas out there, and we figured, let’s talk about some of those on the show and have some fun with them! You can find them at the Superhero Fanon Wikia page. If you have any cool superhero ideas that you’d like to share or have featured on this show, send us an email at contact@darkroastcomics.com and we’ll be more than happy to feature it! This week’s new Humble Heroes candidate: Clenchjaw! You can find more about Clenchjaw here The Cosmic Treadmill! We will be winding down the length of this segment moving forward, as we realized (and talked about in our December Previews bonus episode) that the content of this segment is very similar to the bonus episodes that we do monthly. Also, we end up talking about a lot of the same points that we would potential say the week after, and we didn’t want this to become too repetitive or redundant. So moving forward in future episodes, we will basically be naming off the books we will be covering the following week, and not really go into details. If you’d like to discuss the new books ahead of our episode releases, feel free to hit us up on Twitter or visit our Facebook page/group and we can get a conversation started!

This latest show has been delayed but I've now finished up the show notes finally! This weeks show has Densha Otoko from CMX Manga, DNAngel from ADV and Kimagure Orange Road from Animeigo which may win this hamsters vote for the best old school anime I've seen this year(tying into joint first place with Giant Robo) and the dodgest dancing this side of Miami Vice....... Anywho if you need to contact me with hints, questions, comments, requests for reviews and anything else then drop me a line @: eeeperschoice- at -gmail.com eeeperschoice- at -podomatic.com Eeeper's Choice Podcast Eeeper's Choice Voicemail Also at GoogleTalk Voicemail @ eeeperschoice- at -gmail.com Please note that all images (excluding Show Artwork included in the mp3) unless otherwise stated are the respective copyright and trademark of their respective owners and licensers. No copyright infringement is meant or implied. News CPM will re-release four titles with reduced prices on January 30: Black Jack DVD Collection 1 ($29.95), Ichi The Killer: Episode Zero ($14.95), Time Bokan ($9.95), and Hammerboy ($9.95). Satoshi Kon's next film Paprika is screening at 10 a.m. at Laemmle's Grande 4-Plex in downtown Los Angeles through Sunday. This screening makes the film eligible to be nominated for an Oscar.I've checked out the ANN page on Paprika. It's as good a synopsis as there is on the film so far.(P.S.: I know I was late with this news clip but I was too F***in' tired to edit it out!) ADV Films has officially announced their license to SGT Frog, which includes merchandise and gaming rights as well as other areas (everything but the manga). Separately, Diamond Distributors has relayed that ADV has announced that Volume 1, which is listed in the December Previews for a February release, has been rescheduled for later in 2007. A new trailer for Makoto Shinkai's upcoming Byousoku 5 Centimeter movie trilogy is now online. The films will be released next spring in Japan. The official site for Gonzo's Master of Epic anime series is now online. The show premieres next January in Japan. With grateful thanks to the ANN Reviews Densha Otoko Densha Otoko or Train Man is supposedly based on a true story but with all things Internet related I'll let you decide. I found it to be a nice read while commuting so if you like your heroes nerdy but not Harem Heroic then this could be the title for you. It doesn't have a UK based publisher as far as I know so you'll have order it State-Side for now. DNAngel DNAngel was the title I got back into Anime and Manga after an almost ten year absense. And I know what some fans and listeners will say 'He chose That Title to come back to!?!' but it's the perfect title to show some who's been away from the Crusade for a while. Not terribly bad, not great just a little bit non-engaging. The manga is longer but has way more Shoujo elements to it than the TV series. Kimagure Orange Road KOR is fast becoming a favourite of mine but it's purely an acquired taste. If you can't stand 80's anime this may not be your bag but then if you never watch 80's anime then your not being a true Otaku are you? If you don't like it then you don't like it. Animeigo did a fantastic job translating it but they recently lost the license by that I mean that is that the Japanese label that controls it just recently brought out their own boxset in Region 2(Japan) land with better image and sound quality. In other words We're not letting you produce any more of this DVD while we bring out our outrageously priced version that the fans in Japan must buy rather than pick up your nice, cheap version.....As I said before Animeigo did a fantastic job. Here's the web page for their liner notes on the TV series. Animeigo regularly bleed for their customers and so many of us ignore the fact that back in the day they were the ADV and Funimation of their day. They just annouced their next license here.

The Heroine of the story.I think.. Kyosuke. Our Hero. Poor unlucky bas*&!d A quiet moment between Hikaru and Kyosuke. It can't last. Told ya. Kyosuke getting the job at ABCD from Master. Good Times. Good Times..... Promos This Week: R5 Central Ninja Consultant Weekly Anime Review(WARP) Fast Karate For The Gentleman Anime World Order I'm going on a short break to recharge the batteries so the next show won't be out for two weeks. But on the next show I'll be reviewing two manga titles, Infinite Ryvius based on the series by SUNRISE and Legal Drug by CLAMP and the truly awesome OVA series Giant Robo! Chuala Boola or what!?! Eh, eh!?! Ah, I don't know why I bother...
