In this our 42nd episode of the Braingasm Podcast we are joined by the ailing Jordan Cobb (@jowoco). The coughing is tolerable as it means that we were able to RECORD JORDAN WHILE HE WAS ON COUGH MEDICINE!

We began how we do every week by discussing our time slot move to SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!!! As said previously, every new episode of the Braingasm Podcast will arrive on your digital doorstep three days earlier than usual. You're…

First off, apologies for the technical difficulties on the Weekly Dose. What can we say? Technology done goofed. But, that's not the case here. It's reboot season! The comic landscape has been in a state of radical change recently. No doubt, this will likely affect the very future of the industry itself but, we figured we'd take this time to recollect on the past of the industry. More specifically, in preparation of Marvel's reboot of its… Continue

We'll be taking it easy on you guys this week with what I like to call a diet-sized episode. One of the crew's favorite things to do is just shooting the breeze about old cartoons. We love the nostalgia. What can we say? Anyway, we dip into that well again by recounting some of the comics cartoons that came out prior to the 2000s. We omitted the Bruce Timm shows this time so that we can save them up for an episode of its own. Even still, there… Continue

(note:  this review was written months ago.  i wrote it as a draft and forgot to publish it, but as a HUGE X-Fan, i figured i could post it anyway.  bear in mind, i had NOT seen Captain America yet when i wrote this)

 

I was all set to hail X-Men:  First Class as the sleeper hit of the summer SuperHero movies.  Look here for proof of that.  Saw the movie on a morning showing (and paid 5 bucks for it too!), and it was pretty much everything I was expecting it to be.…

It feels good to have the full band back together even if it means we talk too much. To put it simply, we did a lot of jibber-jabber this time (we recorded an uncut 2 hours). But, we've trimmed that down for you guys to avoid spoilers for all of the stuff we talked about. This includes a possible Hawkman movie, Sony's Vita and PSN service, the road to E3's near completion and the especially big week in comics. We're talking deaths and the…

Your favorite band of merry mutants is back. No, not the disciples of Professor X, but us over at the Pop Culture Podcast (I know, a grand statement of hubris on our part). This one is a spin-off of our previous comic books episode and focuses on the house that Wolverine (whom Avery hates by the way) built into a multi-million dollar franchise. We talk mostly the books this time but, we get into a taste of the shows and movies here and there as well. Check it out,… Continue

Like postal workers, Superheroes fight the good fight through rain, sleet, hail or snow. Looking out my balcony window and viewing the damage that the weather has caused New York City this winter, I began thinking about how hard it must be for movie heroes, whether their super-powered or not, to brave the elements (except for Storm, who may… Continue

SNIKT!!! Isnt that the coolest sound ever created? That’s the sound of conflict resolution at its finest. Could you imagine you boss at work asking for your TPS reports for the 100th time. If only you could look him straight in the eyes…pop your claws (SNIKT!!!) and tell him where to shove those reports. Lets face it, non of us will never be that cool because its phyically impossible, and thats what makes Wolverine so damn cool. I was reading Xmen and Wolverine comics before many of… Continue

Now, the film I want to talk about is 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine'. First of all, this is the one movie coming out this year that I show the most disrespect towards. I remember that there was this report sent around by some guy who helped work on the movie(have no idea who and I have no idea if it's fake or not because it has disappeared off of the face of the internet) and the report went something like this(short description): "Although this… Continue
