"How the carceral state seeks to manipulate and dispose of its rogues, its dregs, its captives and put them to deniable use by intelligence agencies...

Spencer Ackerman discusses his debut comic, a Year One look at the career of future Suicide Squad boss Amanda Waller.

Today I'm Joined by creative renaissance man and all around good dude, Geoff Haney. We dive into details of the first Ex Machina trade paperback and discuss favorite moments and characters, personal politics, ethics behind controversially content, and a ton of other wild stuff. Geoff's Instagram: gyhaneybommRemember to check out part 1 of the Ex Machina episodes for more comic coverage!
In this episode we enter a comic book version of America and follow the life of newly elected New York mayor Mitchell Hundred as he tries to keep control of the bustling metropolis. The comic jumps through temporal points as the Mayor works his way through getting super powers, takes up the mantel of probably misguided vigilante, meets the various characters the populate his present day, and makes the decision to leave the superhero costume behind for the slick suit of a big city politician. Ex Machina is a prime example of how stereotypes of comic books being simple minded picture books for kids is complete and utter bullshit.

Check out more on The Giggaheim: http://www.giggaheim.com/2013/07/24/giggaheim-podcast-geek-out-planetary/ The Giggaheim Podcast presents a special new addition called "THE GEEK OUT SERIES." In this series, a veteran fan will speak with a rookie about a television show, movie, book, video game, or other arena of fandom that they've recently been exposed to by the guidance of the interviewer. As always at The Giggaheim Podcast, we strive to take the listener from "Noob to Initiated" so these specials will concentrate on the important questions for you: How did the new fan get into the subject? What made it a work worth seeing through to the end? What did they think of it, and, most importantly, would they recommend it to you? The inaugural edition of Geek Out covers Warren Ellis' and John Cassaday’s Planetary comic book, published originally by Wildstorm Comics, now DC Comics. Pete, our comic book editor and interviewer for this episode, managed to get Doug, our technology editor, into the graphic novel series. As a good mentor should, Pete guided him through the 5 volumes of Planetary (okay, 4 canon and one crossover called Crossing Worlds), and, in this interview asks Doug all the questions needed to initiate a Geek Out of Planetary proportions. Have a listen. Who knows? Maybe you'll Geek Out over Planetary too!
