This time out I deliver an epilogue, of sorts, to my Legends series by looking at the four issue mini-series, Shazam: The New Beginning. Once again I am not alone. Joining me to talk about Roy and Dann Thomas' Post Crisis revamp of the Big Red Cheese is J David Weter, but we can call him Dave. After going over our histories with the character we dive into all four issues and discuss the writing, the art, why Billy would have been a fan of the Transformers, Black Adam's ears and I throw in some Johnny Cash music for good measure.
Many thanks to Dave for coming on the show! Be sure to check out his podcasting goodness over on Two True Freaks. Also keep an ear out for The Dave Cave, his upcoming Silver Age Batman podcast!
Next Time: I haven't decided yet. It might be a lost episode or I might throw something together based on the Patreon suggestions!
Just started this episode, but I have to say I could listen to two hours of you and your computer assistance bickering. In fact, having her assist you with comic history lessons is a great idea! I'd love to hear you and her banter explaining the Clone Saga, or the behind-the-scenes creation of Luke Cage!
ReplyDeleteSo much fun!
