Comic Book Podcasts are new

Instead of trying to come up with nice things to say about three hour long episodes that don’t even mention podcasts, but instead traipse downward into homophobic banter, here’s episodes actually worth listening to.

Dirk Deppey Journalista pointed to some shows I haven’t heard of before and they’re really worth a listen.  Any others out there?

Podcast reviews after the jump.

6/18, 6/20 Comic Book Page chats with Garan Maderios, of The Comic Stop in Bermuda.  A real store, brick and mortar!  Keep ‘em coming.  Then, discusses the winners of 2007 Eisners.  I don’t think any of the folks on the roundtable actually went to the Eisners last year, but neither did a lot of the winners.  They missed out out hearing Steve Rude talking more about himself than the actual nominees.

6/18 Dial H for Homo tightens their purse strings.  The rising gas prices is affecting purchasing decisions and LCS discounts affect customer retention.  Discussion about event comics, sticking with trades vs issues.

6/18 Comic Addiction dedicates this podcast to Chuck Austin.  They miss him so.  Wonders what the heck is DC thinking—Dixon leaves, Bedard keeps getting shuffled, Morrison stomps all over continuity, what’s next?

6/18 Comic Book Noise‘s Marvel noise is one of the few podcasts enjoying ASM.  Plus reviews on The Twelve and X-Factor.  Revisits the days when Marvel ran Star Wars comics. Good times!  Derek speculates about a possible future of comic books if a movie exec replaces Didio.  Would you pay $10 average per issue?

6/18 Sidebar chats with Matt Wagner of the upcoming Madane Xanadu, Grendel and how they want to have his man-babies.

6/19 Inkstuds interviews Danny Hellman about his new upcoming anthology Typhon (still not sure how it’s pronounced) and talks about that email snafu from ten years ago.

6/19 Funnybook Babylon revisits the rise and fall (and rise) of Marvel Comics during the 90’s with really informative detail.

6/20 Resonance FM interviews Jamie McKelvie and Kieron Gillen at the Bristol Comic Con where Kieron explains the relationship with Phonogram’s comic timing and music syncopation, and if you read it backwards you turn into a Brit Pop wizard.

Nice mix of shows there.  I have never even heard of five of them.  Looks like I have some podcast tasting to do.
