Show notes provided by Joe PelusoOnce upon a time you had to go to the movies to see the trailers forupcoming films. Now all you gotta do is grab your favorite hand-helddevice and ask Google or Siri to call it up for you. And of course,there are those numerous reaction videos (Some longer than the filmsthey're reacting to.) With all that said, if you really want the scoopon Marvel/Disney's new Daredevil offering or James Gunn's new Superman film, all you have to do is join James and Joe (Your Mint Men ofMessaging) to deliver the low-down on what's hurtling your way fromthe vast genre-verse.    In this current "back of the store chat", the boys run the gamutfrom" Supes" to "nuts" (Diamond Comic Distributors) as they review,report, and reconcile some the important issues of the day that aremaking the rounds in the pop culture universe.    Will Spider-Man pop up in Daredevil Born Again? Will James Gunnstraighten out Kal-El's stigmatism in post-production? How will thefall of Diamond Comic Distributors affect your local LCS? Have youheard of Dogman, and why is it eating Marvel and DC's lunch? And hasJoe traded in his maniacal obsession for the inept Nets of the NBA fora lunatic lashing of the NFL? He might be off his meds again.    You can't swing an Omnibus (and if you can, more power to you)without hitting a plethora of topics covered in this episode. As we'vestated once or twice before, bring a score when you come through theback door for this segment. If for no other reason, you might want toshow it to an NFL ref or umpire that you're watching them. Let it goJoe. MLB Spring Training has started!

Comme à chaque période de dix jours qui passe, nous revenons avec nos petits micros sur l'actualité comics et tentons d'en faire à la fois le débrief et l'analyse, avec notre émission du format Front Page. Sans plus tarder, regardons ensemble ce qu'il s'est passé du côté de la fin du mois de mai 2023 en ce qui concerne la bande dessinée (plus ou moins) américaine et ses adaptations !   Un format "court" pour l'actualité comics, pour une fois  Oui, oui, nous livrons un Front Page relativement court (il faut dire que l'actualité du côté VF était assez calme en mai avec tous les weekends prolongés à répétition), mais ce n'est pas pour autant qu'il n'y a pas plein de choses à décortiquer ensemble. Au programme, des parutions à venir, des changements dans l'industrie US mais aussi pas mal de nouvelles du côté des écrans. Si vous appréciez le travail fourni avec ces podcasts, on vous rappelle l'utilité et la nécessité de le faire savoir grâce à vos partages sur les réseaux sociaux, mais aussi sur notre page Tipeee ! Merci de votre écoute et à bientôt pour le prochain podcast.  Le Programme  COMICS - 02:50  Night Fever et le 5e Reckless cet automne chez Delcourt  Charlie Adlard revient à la BD avec Altamont  Fernando Dagnino signe Winter Queen chez Glénat  Ahoy Comics prépare un cadavre exquis avec Grant Morrison  The Schlub : Ryan Stegman à la comédie chez Image Comics  Image Comics quitte à son tour Diamond Comics pour Lunar Distribution  Marvel does it again avec Kid Venom  Un renouvellement de partenariat avec Hasbro et une réimpression historique de ROM et des Micronauts chez Marvel  DC annonce le crossover meh Batman/Catwoman : The Gotham War  TV - 57:05  Une série sur la super-héroïne L'Oiselle/Ladybird en développement  Les séries Silk et Spider-Man Noir mis en pause  Un gros trailer de gameplay pour Marvel's Spider-Man 2  CINEMA - 1:11:10  TMNT Mutant Mayhem se paie Trent Reznor et Atticus Ross pour l'OST  Soutenez First Print - Podcast Comics de Référence sur Tipeee

We promised that we were going to keep going back to our roots, and we're keeping to that promise!! The comic book that we're going to be talking about this week is a VS title for the ages!! We're talking about a Batman Elseworlds story where Batman clashes with the baddest vampire around, Dracula. We're talking about Batman & Dracula: Red Rain!"Batman investigates a series of murders of homeless people of Gotham City whose throats have been slashed. He discovers that a family of vampires led by Count Dracula are the culprits behind the murders. A rogue vampire, Tanya, chooses to help Batman." Red Rain is the first book in a trilogy run of Batman vampire stories. Red Rain was written by Doug Moench, penciled by Kelley Jones, and inked by Malcom Jones III. According to Diamond Comics, Red Rain was the fourth most ordered graphic novel of 1991, so you know that this had a lot of hype surrounding it's release! Even if you don't read the rest of the trilogy, Red Rain is worth the read, especially for the work done by Jones!  SUBSCRIBE: Apple Podcasts | Android |  Spotify | Pandora | RSS Tell us what you think!Leave us a voicemail at 970-573-6148Send us feedback and/or MP3's to outsidethelongbox@gmail.comFollow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Youtube!Support the podcast on Patreon!Credit - Doyle Daniels, Juan Muro
