Podcast of Doom (transcript)

[SFX: Intro Music] DOOM DELUISE: Hello and welcome to the latest Podcast of Doom. I’m your co-host Doom DeLuise, and with me as usual is my fellow co-host Jim Doom. What’s on your mind, Jimmy? Can I call you Jimmy? JIM DOOM: So I don’t know about you, but I’ve been on a steady course…



Book of Doom Preview:
Azrael: Death’s Dark Knight #1

Hey, remember Azrael? Sure ya do. He took over as Batman for a little while in the 90s, then he got his own series and eventually died. But now he’s back. Or is he? My choice for this week’s Book of Doom is the first issue in this three-part miniseries, where we’ll find out if…



Who Will Be America’s Next Top Batman?

Now that the first issue of the new miniseries Batman: Battle for the Cowl is out, I’d say that it’s high time we started kicking up the speculation on who will be wearing the cape and cowl by the end of this thing. People have been guessing at the answer since it was first announced…



Worst to First: February 25th, 2009

This past week, I bought six issues, and it was an even split between Marvel titles and DC titles. While nothing monumental happened in any of them, some were better than others. Some set up interesting things to come, some retold origins of characters, and two of them featured covers by Alex Ross. Seriously, enough…



A Day in the Life of Wolverine

Long time readers probably remember Van as former Doomkopf contributor “Jean-Claude Van Doom.” Apparently, his pitch has recently popped up in Marvel’s May solicitations,…



Trinity #38

It’s been awhile since Fin Fang Doom has regularly reviewed Trinity, and, since he initially claimed he was going to be reviewing every issue until the very end, I figure that somebody should step in to pick up the slack, since he went off and made friends and started neglecting his promise to you, our…



Worst to First: February 18th, 2009

I only bought four issues this week, and, yet, I’m still torn over what to pick for the worst issue and what to pick for the best. That’s right, it’s an even split. Two issues that stunk so bad I could barely stand to finish them and two that left me pretty well satisfied. When…



What I’m buying this week – Feb 18, 2009

Doom DeLuise: • Robin #183 – I’ve been having an on-again/off-again relationship with Robin over the past few months, but I figure that since this is the final issue, I may as well pick it up. Give myself some level of closure, at least. The fact of the matter is, though, that it’ll probably be…
