#108 - Comic Buddha

Tonight the entire CBP team visited Coffee Buddha, a coffee house in the North Hills of Pittsburgh, to take part in the comic book swap that is periodically hosted there. After Dan and Jared were done digging through comic boxes, they recorded a live episode and talked comics, both new and old.

CBP AudioBoo #67 - Avengers #234

The ignoring of The Vision continues in this issue. Also, Starfox takes the idea of "going green" to a whole new level.

CBP AudioBoo #66 - Avengers #233

Nice to know that when an Avenger goes down in the line of duty, the rest of the team...pretty much steps right over him.

#107 - The Sunday Edition

It's not a mistake, this is a Sunday recording. In the past when we've recorded off-schedule, bad things would happen, like in a Final Destination movie. Fortunately, Dan and Duke both came away from this episode unscathed.

This week we talk about Avengers Arena #1, Avengers #1, Hellboy In Hell #1, The Legend of Luther Strode #1 (of 6), Thunderbolts #1, and Stumptown Vol. 2 #4

#106 - Television Pitt?

First, big thanks to the person who accidentally called the CBP voice mail line. Because of your fumbling fingers, we now have a great intro to the show.

This is a bit of a longer episode because Dan and Jared got into a discussion about awesome TV shows. After that, they talked about Supergirl #14, Uncanny Avengers #2, FF #1, American Vampire #33, Chew #30, Comeback #1 (of 5), Amazing Spider-Man #699, and Thor God of Thunder #2

CBP AudioBoo #65 - Avengers #232

Starfox. Women want to be with him, men want to be him. Except for Hawkeye, he hates everyone. Also, Thor may be the God of Thunder, but he's a terrible wingman for his bros. I mean, who's side is he on?

CBP AudioBoo #64 - Avengers #231

Boy, the Avengers are having a tough time. Hank Pym retired last issue, Iron Man quits in this issue, and Jocasta died in the pages of Marvel Two In One #93. However, that doesn't stop the Wasp from turning a rescue mission into a her own version of "Magic Mike".

CBP AudioBoo #63 - Avengers #230

The fate of Henry Pym concludes in this issue and Hawkeye gets put on trial, not once, but twice. Also, Starfox uses ISAAC to help him find some booty. For those who don't know, ISAAC is the computer system which fills almost the entire interior of Saturn's moon, Titan, and control's Titan's artificial biosphere environment and all mechanical operations. So, yeah, good use of resources.

#105 - The Story of Us

SPOILER WARNING: To avoid BIG Amazing Spider-Man reveals, skip from 57:20 to 1:04:15. You've been warned.

In this episode of CBP, we find out that Dan and Duke apparently knew each other as teens and even starred together in a movie from the 1980's. They were the original Coreys.

Anyway, there are plenty of reviews and we get the awkward ones out of the way first. We talk about CAPTAIN AMERICA #1, JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY #646, INDESTRUCTIBLE HULK #1, DAREDEVIL #20, AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #698, and JUDGE DREDD #1.

Also, Comic Book Pitt bids farewell to our friend, our podcaster-in-arms, the Podfather himself, Nick Marino, as he leaves Pittsburgh for sunny California. Thanks to the dark magic of the internet, Nick will still be around, but we'll miss him nonetheless.

CBP AudioBoo #62 - Avengers #229

This issue has a few "Finally!" moments. First, Hawkeye has a legitimate reason to verbally abuse a woman. Later, Hank Pym hikes up his skirt and kicks some Masters of Evil ass.

CBP AudioBoo #61 - Black Friday at NDC

 

Forget camping out in front of Best Buy or standing in line at Target, we've got a new Black Friday shopping tradition thanks to the fine folks at New Dimensions Comics. Trust me, there's nothing like digging through long boxes at midnight.

CBP AudioBoo #60 - Avengers #228

She-Hulk deals poorly with her anger management, Iron Man and Cap share some bro time, Tiger Shark slings racial slurs, and the legal system is still a joke in the Marvel Universe.

By the way, thanks to some social networking magic, the fine folks at AudioBoo have increased recording times for CBP from 5 minutes to 6 minutes. It may not be a extremely noticeable change to listeners, but trust me, when you're trying to recap a comic book in 5 minutes, that extra minute makes a difference.

#104 - Tones and Noises, Pops and Clicks

The training wheels are off and Jared & Dan are off and running with some conversation and reviews. Dan gives a quick recap of Neil Gaiman's speaking engagement in Pittsburgh, followed by the revelation that neither Jared nor Dan are familiar with much of his work. Awkward.

Comics reviewed in this episode: All New X-Men #1, Thor The God of Thunder #1, Amazing Spider-Man #697, and Batman #14. Dan gives quick mentions of Saga #7 and Great Pacific #1 while Jared spotlights the indie comic he discovered at SPX, Toupydoops.

CBP AudioBoo #59 - Avengers #227

"Chicks, man...they're messing everything up. First they're on the team without even being voted in, soon they'll outnumber the male members, next thing you know, they'll all be on the same cycle." - Hawkeye

#103 - Three's Company

Alright CBPeeps, get ready to have your minds blown.

- This month marks CBP's 4 year anniversary.
- Starting this week, CBP is going back to a weekly schedule.
- Last, but certainly not least, our friend Jared Catherine officially joins us in this episode as a co-host.

We're glad to have another voice on the show because we had a lot of stuff to talk about, like...

CBLDF Liberty Annual 2012
Rocketeer: Cargo of Doom #3
Aquaman #13
Revival #4
Deadpool #1
Animal Man #14
Swamp Thing #14
Uncanny X-Force #33
Ultimate Spider-Man #16.1
Iron Man #1
Shadowman #1

We also devote a few minutes at the end of the show to mention Tony Harris' recent online rant. It's a doozy.

Also, if you're in the Pittsburgh area next Saturday, check out the one-day only steampunk show, Airship Pirate Days

CBP AudioBoo #58 - Neil Gaiman Comes to Pittsburgh

Nothing I can say about Neil Gaiman could possibly do the man justice so we'll keep it simple; he's an English author of short fiction, novels, comic books, graphic novels, television and films. In other words, go read his work, you won't be disappointed.

CBP AudioBoo #57 - Avengers #226

In comics, the Iron Man armor has always been considered one of the most advanced pieces of technology, capable of doing amazing things.

Or, if you're She-Hulk, it's a great hunk of metal to hurl at a villain.

CBP AudioBoo #56 - Avengers #225

Can't the Avengers get through ONE meeting without interruption?!?

#102 - FrankenDuke!

After we get our Comic Book Men hate out of the way, we blow up the Disney/Lucasfilm news and talk about Cyber Force #1, Punisher War Zone #1, I, Vampire #13, Frankencastle TPB, and Daredevil #19. Quick shout-outs also go out to Battle Beasts #4, Hawkeye #3, and X-O Manowar #6.

CBP AudioBoo #55 - Avengers #224

Make no mistake, there is some Avenger-on-Avenger action in this issue. I mean, you don't go to Jamaica with Tony Stark for three days to tour sugar estates.
