Collected Comics Library Podcast #152

36,337Kb; 76m 59s

It’s time once again for the 2007 Year in Review show. Unlike past years I decided not to have individual “Best of” categories and instead do a Top 10 list.
As you can see I also broke the podcast down with time stamps.
I urge you all to use this particular CCL episode as a tool and guide. It should be taken in smell doses because it’s just a ton of information to get in just over an hour. Download it and listen to it at you convenience. Also be sure to download the Complete 2007 Collected Editions Release Schedule, so you can read along.

Lot’s on my plate this weekend. Patty and I are going to try to take the kids ice skating Saturday and then we have to drop them off at the grand parents home so we can go to some sort of neighborhood bowling/ beer league. On Sunday, I’m sure we have something going on and in between it all I have to get some football in and try to read half of the Fourth World Omnibus Volume 2. Did I mention today, Friday, I’m updating the entire site?; from Books, Checklists and the Release Schedule (including the DVDs). Next weeks I plan on being even more busy with projects that will benefit everyone that comes to the CCL. On to today’s links:

• A couple of new Star Wars books are coming out in 2008: Star Wars Blueprints: The Ultimate Collection (Fall) and Master of Deception, book nine of the Last of the Jedi series (February)
• Random House has acquired world English rights to four Iron Man book titles; two of which will tie in directly with the Iron Man movie, the other two will be original Iron Man novels, which will release after the movie
• On the heels of yesterdays Masterwork news, Marvel by way of their Marvel Masterworks website, has announced Atlas Era - Heroes Volume 2 Featuring Human Torch, Captain America and Sub-Mariner (Variant Volume 92). It will collect Men’s Adventures #27-28, Captain America #76-78 and Human Torch #36-38 and be released February 28, 2008. Looks like Cap lives after all
• Collected Editions Blog speculates about the newly announced Starman: The Complete Saga. I agree with everything, but I’d like to see an eight volume set and not four (or two!)
• What’s Bob Greenberger up to?
• Heidi MacDonald blogs about the many hardcovers and collected editions to make this week’s comics bestsellers on Amazon
• Review: Dave Wallace, Silver Bullet Comics on Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight, Volume One: The Long Way Home (Dark Horse)
• Review: Rack Raids on Heroes HC (DC/Wildstorm)
• Review: Tom Spurgeon on Popeye Vol. Two: “Well Blow Me Down!” (Fantagraphics)
• Review: Joe “Jog” McCulloch on Tarzan: The Joe Kubert Years Volumes 1-2 (Dark Horse Archives). Look for my comment at the end
