This week on Teenage Wasteland…

A new intro and a bit of business to push out of the way, but quickly after that I pose the question of, “How many younger people listen?”. Plus, some thoughts on spending, large reading piles and plenty of reviews. Oh, and don’t forget, Mr. Jeff Sandquist talking up the Punisher!

Books Discussed
The Corpse Carries a Gun and Tyrannosaurus Beth #1
Daredevil Vol. 1 #100 and #101
1963 #1-6
The Losers Vol. 1 and 2

Host Derek Coward talks about Daredevil 500, his history with the character, enthusiasm for the future of the title despite those saying nay and finishes the show by talking about a pretty cool digital comic book available on iTunes and offers some reading recommendations.

Host Derek Coward goes over a brief history of the Miracleman mess, discusses what he thinks Marvel should do with the character and tells Marvel in no uncertain terms what they can do to get his money.

Note: Despite what I said in the episode, it was Marv Wolfman who wrote Total Eclipse, not Chuck Dixon. And a bunch of people wrote Miracleman:Apocrypha including Kurt Busiek, Sarah E. Byam, Dick Foreman, Neil Gaiman, Steven Grant, Steve Moore, Stefan Petrucha, James Dale Robinson, Fred Schiller and the great Matt Wagner. Also the series went 24 issues, not 22, and the last issue came out in 1993.

Oops.
