Posted by Kwip on August 27th, 2007 11 Comments 
Titles we spoil this week: BATMAN #668, BATMAN LOBO DEADLY SERIOUS #1, GREEN LANTERN CORPS #15, SPIRIT #9, HIDING IN TIME #2, INVINCIBLE #45, WALKING DEAD #40, AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #543, ASTONISHING X-MEN #22, CABLE DEADPOOL #44, HALO UPRISING #1, IMMORTAL IRON FIST #8, SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN #40, THE ORDER #2, THUNDERBOLTS #116, WOLVERINE #56, X-MEN #202, TANK GIRL THE GIFTING #3. We also discuss a LOT of news: baby’s kicking, Dee Snider’s kid, original Avengers artwork being discovered, Matt Fraction is a lucky, lucky man, Jason Becker refuses our constructive criticism, the Gorillaz toys are sweet, HappyJack tries to put out my eye with a napkin, GI Joe’s going to the big screen – but will it contain the same, subtle homoeroticism, it’s crazy to consider remaking Enter the Dragon, Robin and Chris Hansen doing an intervention, and our BIG HUGE ANNOUCEMENT!
The Spewgilist interview is supposedly on this page, but I’ve yet to get that page to work. For me, I just went right to the MP3 file.
Dr. Sexy was completely horrified to view this baby-kicking video, but Jason and I thought it was pretty awesome, so screw Sexy. I don’t know if where I’m at in my life with my biological clock ticking makes the difference, but I think they’re amazing and I loved all of them. However, I also loved the Alien movies, so that’s a totally different… well, no, the videos are about the same.
Dee Snider’s a great rocker and everything, but why on earth would he think bringing his kid in to work on his comics is a good idea? Well, actually why did he think HIM working on a comic is a good idea, for that matter?
Yeah, there’s no way they’re getting that original Avengers artwork, but at least they can say they helped return it to the proper owners. That’s gotta be good karma, right?
When the guys shot me the link to a site called, “Girl Farts,” I was completely horrified. But I have to say, Kelly Sue DeConnick is a hella cool chick. Check her website out; beside being cool herself, she’s married to Matt Fraction. AND they’re going to have a kid, so that child’s just going to be basking in froodness from day one.
I’m not a big fan of most of the stuff on Kidrobot, but I’d love to get those Gorillaz figures.
Jason’s pretty deadly with rolled-up napkins, so watch out.
We love Keith Giffen, so reading his plans for the Four Horsemen is fascinating. Definitely going to get that.
Rags Morales and Rob Liefeld really went at it on the Newsarama message boards. You can read the whole thing if you’d like, but I’d recommend skipping all the peripheral stupidity and reading the Glint of Hope recap instead.
Dr. Sexy hates Howard Chakin’s art, but we all hate the concept of shooting Wolverine to keep him under control. Silly.
Marvel Comics Presents is coming back, so that’s good news. If they do a good job with it, of course.
GI Joe has lots of good home-eroticism in it, so it’ll be fun to see how that translates into the big screen.
I was angry about them remaking Enter the Dragon, but I guess it’s not really a remake, is it?
The breakdown of this show looks something like this:
37:04 – Just The Tip
45:46 – Dr. Sexy’s Love Lounge
1:03:10 – HappyJack’s Hall Of Hate
1:16:45 – Kwip’s Clueless Corner
For those of you that can actually understand how the interweb works and know what to click on to download the show, go ahead and click here. The rest of you can use the PuPuPlayer I’m toying around with:
If you’re interested in learning more about CringeHumorRadio, you can check out their website – just be aware that it’s in the process of being updated, so don’t let the fact it hasn’t been updated in forever scare you. They really did ask us to join, I promise I’m not making that up! Well… I THINK it was them… or at least someone purporting to be them… hrmmm…

Nothing would brighten my day more than having Rob Liefeld drawn and quartered and the pieces lit on fire. I’d put out the fire with a celebratory pissing.
The man is the pinnacle of incompetence. His artwork sucks. He apparently has never actually taken a look at human anatomy ever in his lifetime. Also, 90% of his Image characters are complete ripoffs of Marvel and DC works.
This man is a gigantic vortex of suckage with the force of a thousand black holes.

Crusher I wish you’d stop holding things inside. It’s not good for the sole!

Err that should be soul! Doh!

Gratz on the radio show thing! Now for the obligatory MOGcast comment: so how does this effect the MOGcast?

You’ll probably get more of them: MOGCAST will probably be one of the segments we do on the show.
Liefeld, poor sweet retarded Liefeld – check out the Killraven images to drive the point home: HJ

Now I will be the first to admit, I am not as computer/internet savy as you fellows, but is this sort of insanity common on the webs? http://swampthingblog.blogspot.com/ or is he his own special kind of whacked? HJ

Ooooh. But then, what will Happy Jack do during that segment? :O Go get a beer or something?
“You nerds talk about your nerdy nerd things. I’m gonna read my comics.”
MOGS?! fuck that shit. I’ll catch some zzzzz’s while you girls chat. i’m gonna need to pace myself for a 3 hour show! I’m not a machine after all. HJ
Yeah, you go ahead and sleep in the studio. Pay no attention to the feeling of something warm, fuzzy and soft being rested on your forehead and the subsequent flash of light…
I’ve given it no thought in the past, no reason to think I would start now!
