I CAN BARELY CONTAIN MY...actually there's nothing going on.

I CAN BARELY CONTAIN MY...actually there's nothing going on.

I've literally got nothing to post about, yet I'm doing it anyway. How about that?

Actually I'm looking to start a podcast. A comics podcast. Suggestions? Pleas of clemency to spare the world of yet another comics podcast?

(By the way, if you're not already subscribed to Mur Lafferty's sublime Geek Fu Action Grip, get subscribed.)

Let me know. The comics podcast would be more focused on comics history, aesthetics, and some reviews. I think the geek factor of comics is pretty well covered by all the other comics podcasts out there. Like I said, feedback would be nice before I pay for server space.

By the way, anyone seen Man with the Screaming Brain yet? Apparently it's going to premiere on TV September 25, but I'd love to get some first-hand reviews before then.
