Review: DC's The New Frontier Absolute Edition Written by Darwyn Cooke Art by Darwyn Cooke

Everyone on the panel agrees this is a 5 out of 5 Star collected edition. The panel spends most of the program analyzing the New Frontier discussing everything from the minor plot points to the nods to great moments in comic history during the Silver Age.

Review: The New Frontier DVD Review The panel discusses the differences between the DVD and the Absolute Edition, citing why some of the changes are okay, and others can detract from the movie if you've already read the trade. Bryan, Stephen, and Rodrigo suggest people watch the DVD before reading the book.

Review: The Spectacular Spider-Man Animated Television Show The panel is split on the show. Stephen gives it a pass citing the art style is not to his liking. Bryan has an issue with subtle costume changes, but Rodrigo likes the show overall. The panel agrees that the animated series is off to a good start giving nods to the classic Spider-Man, and building continuity and large story arcs between episodes.
