Another podcast in the can. This week, more comics bidding farewell before the glowing red wall of the DCnU wipes them out, plus a bit of Gronk, some Girl Genius, and a new podcast award for Cover of the Week.
Now with Special Captioning of Covers!
Thanks again to my family for putting up with having their Sunday afternoons and/or evenings interrupted with this stuff.

Nice Job, and yeah, the “Sirens” cover is all sorts of good.
Especially as it also marks the exit of her current costume.
So the best comic of the week is a reprint of stories from 10 to 20 years ago? That’s kind of sad.
I got Mark Maguire to autograph my Justice League America* #1 at ECCC this year. 🙂
*Note the lack of the preposition “of” in the title; you misspoke in the podcast (but are forgiven).
It actually a new story (two, in fact) told as though it was 15-20 years old, original material, not reprints.
I did notice the idiosyncratic period lack of “of” in the title, but went ahead and left it in when saying the name.
Btw, I assume you mean Kevin Maguire… Unless you were haunting a baseball convention with your comics. 😉
Augh! Yes, I meant Kevin Maguire!

These are new stories? I just assumed they were reprints. OK, time to give them a try! Thanks for the heads up.
The whole RetroActive series (over the past four months or so) have been all-new stories, done by the writers/artists of the era in question, or by others in homage to same. For the most part, browsing through, I’ve not been impressed, but I was tempted into buying the JLA ish, and am glad I did.
I expect they will be collected in TPBs in the next few months.
