Jason Sacks: If you were to ask me what would make up the perfect comic book, it would likely have everything that this book has.
It's easy to imagine regular comic fans dismissing Blair Butler and Kevin Mellon's Heart, but Butler anticipates dudes like me who automatically judge people who wear Affliction tees by making her protagonist, Oren, a regular dude who could just as easily be a comic book reader -- a directionless office drone in his 20s with little direction who himself judges dudes with over-designed metallic T-shirts.
For all its dogfucking (or, perhaps, because of it?), Our Love is Real is surely a mirror held up to our society, a parody of the Conservative idea that if we allow the gays to marry, then we'll let a men marry a trumpet (but only one, because, y'know, we generally frown upon bigamy).
Nate and Danny host! David talks Arkham City! Matt talks customer etiquette! Raf talks about The Punisher! Comics! Music! Dancing!
Orson is a humanoid being genetically engineered to go to Mars, but instead lives his life making ends meet and spending the rest on cybersex and futuredrugs.
Butcher Baker is in his happy place, keeping his mind off the fact that Jihad Jones is beating the crap out of him, while Arnie B. Willard and The Absolutely are fast approaching the scene.
Wait, what's this? Lemme explain: Nathaniel MacDonald couldn't make it this week, so we got Matthew Z. Rios (our special guest last episode) to sub in because Raf and I cannot sustain a podcast on our own.
Comics for the Blind is Comics Bulletin's official podcast and stars these guys: Host Nathaniel McDonald, second guy Danny Djeljosevic (that's me) and third guy Rafael Gaitan talk about comics, pop culture, derail said conversations and constantly riff.
Hey: Comics Bulletin has a podcast! Comics for the Blind stars these guys: Host Nathaniel McDonald, second guy Danny Djeljosevic (that's me) and third guy Rafael Gaitan talk about comics, pop culture and derail one another's conversations a lot.
