Discussion: Comics on the Couch 515

Image by Kris Black (cropped)This week on the Dollar Bin Adam and Shawn sit down for a session of Comics on the Couch.  We put out a call to twitter to ask what we should talk about.  There were some really great ideas.  They went with the following:  Roger Langridge, Creator Rights, Jack Kirby, How Kris Black is resonsible for them meeting (in a way), upcoming movies, McGintyfest, and other stuff.

Runtime: 1 hour 5 minutes 45 seconds

Announcement: Show Posting Delayed

Hey, how do you like the new website?  With the new setup I feel more comfortable posting things like this.  I’m going to bed without finishing the edit on this weeks show.  I’ll have it up later tomorrow.  That’s pretty cool about Stan Lee at HeroesCon, huh?  You guys pick up any good stuff from Free Comic Book Day?  That’s what we’ll be talking about, Free Comic Book Day.  Sorry for the delay… not that any of you listen on post day anyway.  What day do you usually listen?  Here’s a mock-up that Kris did once:

UPDATE: We installed DISQUS commenting to allow for easier sharing to social networks (Facebook and Twitter) and to get avatars next to comments. It appears the new DISQUS 2012 is not working properly with this site. I notified DISQUS and they are hard at work figuring out what’s wrong. As soon as this is fixed you can comment on how awesome (or terrible) the redesign looks.

Commenting is now working! Get your Disqus account if you wish to take advantage of all it has to offer. It’s not required but can certainly make for a much “funner” experience.

Announcement: Stan Lee to Appear at HeroesCon 2012

It was just announced today that Stan Lee will be at HeroesCon 2012.  Lee has hit a few east coast shows over the past few years, but this will be the first time since 1984 he’ll be a guest at HeroesCon.  What better way to celebrate the enormity of the 30th HeroesCon than to shake hands with Stan Lee, the most well known name in comics?  I know the Dollar Bin will be there. Congratulations Shelton, and Happy Anniversary.
