Ep.30A: NCBD Pull List, The Bad Batch FINALE, Titans Theories, WW Evolution, and Nichelle Nichols9/27/2021 Hello Monday! This week's "A" episode starts as normal, with the weekly comic book pull list! This week's incoming comics include a good deal of indie #1's some final issues, and three different Tom King titles! For an explanation on King's Bat/Cat romance as we've seen it play out so far, see episode 20A!
The big TV event of the past few days was the finale episode of Star Wars: The Bad Batch season 1. I loved the whole thing, which was full of tension, passion, and emotion! All of which are discussed in depth, as well as theories for the next season and where characters will go from here. Finally, in the news, I discuss some theories I have for Titans season 3, the announcement of the Wonder Woman Evolution series, Nichelle Nichols' (see: Star Trek's Lt. Uhura) conservatorship situation, and the coming episode of What If...?, which will be sure to tug on all of our heartstrings just a bit. And don't forget, Shang Chi tickets are now on sale! I'll be back this Friday, August 20th with an episode that will include the weekly comic book Pick list, discussion of Titans episode 4 and What If...? episode 2, possibly as well as the episodes of Superman and Lois I've missed, but no promises on that one. In the meantime, have an excellent week, and stay sweaty!

This week's "A" Episode is appearing on Tuesday due to technical difficulties, of sorts. We kick things off this week with the usual weekly comic book pull list, including I am Batman #0, Mamo #2, Captain Marvel, Daredevil, and more!
After that is the discussion of James Gunn's The Suicide Squad! Spoilers and mild disappointment abound. What? Disappointment?? Yep. I try to explain as clearly as I can why I only watched the movie once over the weekend. However, my discussion also includes summaries of each character's comic iteration compared with the movie version! After that is a talk exploring episode 5 of the Bad Batch, which has its series finale this Friday. "Return to Kamino" held a number of key reveals, some curious teases, and a cliffhanger ending! Finally, I clap back at some commenter who argued She-Hulk MUST be tortured to leave the Avengers, and how that IS bad writing. If I can come up with a more compelling story than the professional writer, maybe things aren't going too well. I'll be back this coming Friday, August 13th with episode 29B, which will focus on the comic book pick list, the initial episode of What If...? on Disney+, and potentially the season premier of Titans season 3! Till then, stay hydrated, stay healthy, and stay sweaty.

Today, we kick things off with the weekly comic book pull list. I'm delighted to be doing spotlights on comics of excellent representation again this week, including Maria Llovet's Porcelain, Victoria Douglas' Cinnamon, Taboo and B. Earl's Spirit Rider, the second Horizon Zero Dawn series, and more! This week has the final issue of Maurene Goo and Takeshi Miyazawa's Silk series, the second-to-last of Sensational Wonder Woman, and a good deal of other #1's!
Then it's on to Friday's episode of the Bad Batch--ep. 14. While it ended with a serious problem for the Batch, it was an intriguing episode as we close in to the end of this 16-episode series! After that is my discussion of the new trailer for Venom: Let There Be Carnage! It looks pretty fun, but Woody Harrelson is no doubt going to totally steal the show. Finally, I end the episode with a discussion spurred by a recent online article/interview with Matt Damon, and the problematic ideas it presented. TL;DR: the end of theaters is not the end of entertainment media, and the writer should have done some--any-- comic book research. I'll be back this Friday, August 6th with episode 28B, focusing on comic book Picks from this week's NCBD! Don't forget Friday is also the premier of James Gunn's the Suicide Squad, in theaters and on HBO Max! I'll be watching it then and reviewing it on my episode next Monday, 29A, on Aug. 9th! Till then, stay hydrated, don't cast judgement, and get sweaty over your hobbies. Website/Blog: www.sensationalshegeek.weebly.com Apple Podcasts Podbean Spotify Instagram: @annawiththecomics Twitter: @savageshegeek YouTube: Sensational She-Geek Patreon Program: patron.com/sensationalshegeek Hiya, folks! This Monday brings us a HUGE comic book pull list for the week, including a total of 21 comics discussed! Highlights include the Mighty Valkyries, Batman Reptilian, Sonjaversal, Strange Adventures, and the return of Amazing Fantasy! These comics will come out Wednesday the 28th, or Tuesday the 27th for DC comics.
After a short blurb on the 13th episode of the Bad Batch, I'm covering Marvel's October solicitations! We did DC last week, so it's only fair. There are a ton of exciting things coming out in October, and I've picked out a bunch of ones I'm looking forward to! I had to stop the normal podcast, at this point, to talk about something important I forgot to mention last Friday: Marauders #22, which undid a long-ago wrong to a strong female character who always deserved better. Not only did they undo the wrong, they made it so she never went through the worsts of it in the first place. Now that's a retcon I can completely get on board with, and I talk about the meaningful details here. After a little MCU and Pokemon project news, the podcast today wraps up with a list of Eisner Award winners! The awards were granted over the weekend when Comic Con San Diego would normally be happening, and I'm thrilled to recognize a number of the titles and creators. I'll be back this coming Friday, July 30th for our last July episode, covering the new comics Pick list, breaking news and speculation, and whatever else becomes relevant between now and then! Till then, have an excellent week, and stay sweaty. Hey, guys, I'm back! After a week of furiously moving from one side of the county to the other, I finally have my desk and electronics set up to record!

I'll be back with a new episode this coming Friday, July 23rd, where I will discuss the week's comic book pick list, the Loki behind-the-scenes episode, and anything else newsworthy! Till then, keep your head up, keep hydrated, and keep it sweaty. Website/Blog: www.sensationalshegeek.weebly.com Apple Podcasts Podbean Spotify Instagram: @annawiththecomics Twitter: @savageshegeek YouTube: Sensational She-Geek Patreon Program: patron.com/sensationalshegeek Hello everyone! This week's "A" episode is coming out on Tuesday instead of Monday due to the holiday over the weekend! Sorry if that threw anyone off!
The bulk of this Tuesday podcast episode follows my weekly comic pull list. This week I discuss 13 different new comics, including the beginnings of X-Men, Ordinary Gods, Mamo, and Fights Girls, the ending of Karmen, my thoughts on the coming World War She-Hulk, and nothing but excitement and admiration for Wonder Girl and Sensational Wonder Woman! Following the pull list is the discussion of the most recent episode of Star Wars: the Bad Batch. Episode 10 was titled Common Ground, and was a great one for fans of droids and proving Omega's usefulness. Finally, I wrap up the episode by addressing the new rumors surrounding Wolverine in the MCU. <3 Logan <3 I'll be back this coming Friday, July 9th, for episode 25B, where we will discuss Loki episode 5, the comic book Pick list, and more industry news and speculation! And don't forget, Black Widow is Friday, as well! We'll discuss THAT one on Monday, 7/12!

Another Monday, another podcast "A" episode! This week starts off with the usual Pull list, where we have a handful of annuals and anniversary issues, a handful of #1's, and some great indie and cape comics!
After the pull list, I'm delighted to go over the most recent episode of Star Wars' The Bad Batch on Disney+, which was episode 9! This one was probably my favorite episode of the show yet, and there are a lot of cool reveals to be discussed! Finally, I end the episode on some Harley Quinn discussion, specifically revolving around the often continued "queer coding" of her character. While Harley and Ivy officially came "out" as romantic partners recently in canon, I go over a little of the history of their relationship, the problem with writing off queer characters, and of course, the Harley Quinn animated series' new upcoming comic, Harley Quinn: The Eat, Bang, Kill Tour! If the title alone doesn't get you, I have plenty of other reasons you might fid this series enjoyable. I'll be back this coming Friday, JULY 2nd, for episode 24B, which will focus on Loki ep4, the comic book pick list, and whatever is newsworthy in he industry between now and then! In the meantime, stay hydrated, and get sweaty about comics!

Ep.22A: The Bad Batch's Omega meets Rex! +Comic Book Pulls: Mega-Sized Pull List This Week!6/14/2021
It's a new week, and a new Monday "A" episode! Today's podcast starts off with my discussion of the Bad Batch episode seven, which covered a fair amount of ground, including the introduction of Rex to Omega! Gotta love it when worlds collide, even if they're just the same universe.
My weekly comic book pull list is a beast this week! It includes popular gems such as Demon Days: Mariko #1, Planet-Size X-Men #1, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow #1, and more for the Hellfire Gala, but also indie treasures like the final issue of Maria Llovet's Luna, Ram V and Filipe Andrade's the Many Deaths of Laila Star #3, the ridiculously pleasing Sonjaversal #5, and so much more! Specifically, I talk about a whopping 21 different comics that are releasing this week! Finally, to end on a happ(iest place on earth)y note, I talk a little about Avengers Campus at Disney's California Adventure! I had previously gone through announced expectations, but now that the park is open to visitors, I have a little more information on hos things are, what the expect, and what you'll see and eat! I haven't been myself, but I's so love to! I'll be back this Friday, June 18th for episode 22B, which will cover the best things out of this new comic book week, this Wednesday's second episode of Loki, and whatever news and theories break in nerd culture between now and then! Until then, stay cool, but get sweaty :) website: www.sensationalshegeek.weebly.com ApplePodcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sensational-she-geek-live-from-yancy-street/id1550410718 PodBean: sensationalshegeek.podbean.com Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/45qGcYnP147aZBVIHC09lI Instagram: @annawiththecomics twitter: @savageshegeek
It's Monday again! This week's "A" starts regularly with the comic book pull list, spotlighting DC Pride #1, The good Asian #2, Children of the Atom #4, and Far Sector #12 (the final issue!), plus the rest of the regular pull list!
After the comics chat is my discussion of the Bad Batch episode six, as well as the first few episodes of Sweet Tooth on Netflix. I'm not at all familiar with the source material of that one, so my take might be a little...off? Still, it was fun to talk about, and Bad Batch is always a gem! For news, we have discussions of Spider-Woman's casting for the Into the Spider-Verse sequel, and there's a lot to theorize about it! Finally, there is a prelude to Wednesday's Loki premier on Disney+, and brand-new rumors of certain Atlanteans appearing in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. The source is sketchy, but it's still fun to deliberate! I'll be back this Friday, June 12th for episode 21B, which will cover my new comic book day picks, Loki's premier, and whatever news or speculation breaks between now and then! Until then, stay sweaty! Happy...er, Sunday?! SO sorry I got behind on this week's "B" podcast, but life got in the way! It's here, now, with an extra half-hour more run-time than usual! Whoops?
This episode starts with the usual Comic Book Pick List, featuring things that I loved or thought were noteworthy out of this week's new comic book releases. The pick list discussion includes a solid chunk of time dedicated to this week's X-Men #20 before diving into Beta Ray Bill #3, Made in Korea #1, Monstress #34, and Strange Adventures #10, among others! With great reads comes great discussions! Then it's on to the week's media consumption, including catching up on the Bad Batch and Superman and Lois, my basic thought son Hulu's Modok, and the finale episodes of Black Lightning! For news, casting announcements for Secret Invasion, Sony's Kraven, and HBO's Green Lanterns are joined by news of an Okoye origin show coming to Disney+! Finally, the episode wraps up with some fun (?) MCU-related rumors, including one about December's Spider-Man: No Way Home, and the other about the newly announced Captain America 4--an both involve the rumored villains! I'll be back this coming TUESDAY, June 1st, with an episode going over the week's comic book pull list, as well as whatever more new and speculation gets out until then! In the meantime, thank you for listening, and for your patience with this episode's lateness. Wherever you're from, have a delightful, nerd-sweat-filled weekend!
Hello on this fine Monday! I did today's "A" episode a little different, starting with news and speculation! This section includes info on the fifth Indiana Jones movie, upcoming film and TV releases, and news of AT&T beefing up to cage-fight Disney!
Then there is the comic book pull list, featuring a plethora of new and ongoing series'! The episode wraps up with a brief note on Castlevania season 4, and discussion of the Bad Batch episode 3, which was a great one! I'll be back Friday, May 21st for episode 18B, which will feature the comic book Pick List, discussion of Black Lightning episodes, and whatever news and updates may happen between now and then! Have a fantastic week, everyone, and be authentically sweaty! |
