While I have your attention...

Mar 22, 2007 21:01

While I've got your attention, how many of you guys have been listening to 2 in 1 Showcase, the podcast I co-host every week with my good buddy Chase Bouzigard?

It's a fun little show, guys.

Basically, each week Chase and I pick and different comic book character (or perhaps a creator, or an event). We banter back and forth about our favorite stories with that character. We rant. We argue. We have a blast. We've got ten episodes on the web so far, and they get better every week. We love doing it, and we're having a blast. But we want more feedback! Tell us what you like! Tell us what you don't like! Tell us what topics you want us to cover! Suggest comics for our "picks" section at the end of every episode! We're looking for more ways to make the show interactive, including perhaps adding a voicemail line somewhere down the line, and doing the occasional "on location" episode recorded at our home away from home, BSI Comics in Metairie, Louisiana. But we want you -- yes, YOU -- to help us make the show better.

So now that you know what we're all about, you want to listen, right? Of course right. First thing's first: You can use this link to subscribe to the show via iTunes. It's completely, 100 percent free of charge, and you'll get every episode downloaded automatically. And while you're there, we'd be darn grateful if you'd write us a review!

You can give us FEEDBACK on the show -- visit our forum at the Features Section of Comixtreme.com, or e-mail us at Showcase@comixtreme.com.

Or, if you want to sample the episodes one at a time, you can download 'em all by clicking on the following links:

Episode 1: Secret Origins -- In which Chase and I introduce ourselves and talk about our feelings on the "Big Two" as they currently exist.
Episode 2: Batman -- Our favorite Batman stories of all time.
Episode 3: Spider-Man -- Because he does whatever a spider can.
Episode 4: Superman -- A favorite character for both of us.
Episode 5: Wolverine -- We bypassed the X-Men and went straight to the world's hairiest cash cow!
Episode 6: Ghost Rider -- To coincide with the movie, Chase and I talked about the best Ghost Rider stories ever... plus, are YOU ready for the inevitable Zombie Apocalypse?
Episode 6.5: Ghost Rider Movie -- Chase came back after the film with this, a mini-review.
Episode 7: Shazam! -- Why is the original Captain Marvel such an important character?
Episode 8: Vertigo -- Our favorite stories from "the HBO of comic books," and how the goth kids traumatized Chase.
Episode 9: Frank Miller and 300 -- It's the biggest comic book movie of the year (so far), so we dish on the 300 creator's best stories -- Batman, Daredevil, Sin City... we hit it all!
Episode 10: Eulogy For Captain America -- Our first ever on-location episode! The BSI Comics staff join Chase and I to banter back and forth about the death of Cap, the ending of Civil War, the future of Marvel Comics and why the heck I know which company published the New Kids on the Block comics back in the day.

So what's coming up next? Well, this weekend you can look forward to our thoughts on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (yes, we DO intend to do an episode dedicated to every comic book related movie that comes out), followed by a "very special episode" that you won't want to miss. Planned for the near future are episodes on Green Lantern, Daredevil and a special episode following up on 52 and looking ahead to Countdown. And why do you care? Because, friends, we're geeks like you. We love comics, we love to argue about them, and we have more fun doing it than should be allowed. And we want to share it with you.

So download an episode or two. Give us a listen. Give us a review. Tell your friends. And let us know what you think!
