Collected Comics Library Podcast #146

40,572Kb; 43m 00s

Six months ago I talked with Joe Rybandt, Director of Marketing at Dynamite Entertainment. Today, Joe checks back in with us to give us an update on many of the cool projects coming out in 2008 including the Alex Ross Superpowers book (the monthly comic and a future collected edition), a classic Lone Ranger collection, and what may become of the Battle Star Galactica comic book now that it is coming to an end on the Sci-Fi Channel. Joe also talks a bit on being the sole Podcaster himself at Dynamite “and much, much more”. It’s a nice follow-up to our last conversation and I hope to being doing it again in another sixth months.

There is also a small sale at Top Shelf that you should take advantage of (I know I will) and Marvel has announced a SIXTH Printing to its’ Marvel Zombies HC. This time with an homage to Iron Man #128, Demon in a Bottle.

All this, including the New Releases of the Week and the winner of my Thor #1, (Michael Turner, variant cover) giveaway: Brad Schwartz, Romeoville, IL. Thanks to everyone who entered.

Today I have something a little different. It’s an interview with Timothy Callahan, author of Grant Morrison: The Early Years. Besides going over his life in comics and his book, Tim and I talk about the collected editions market and he even shares his own Top 10!
You may be wondering why this isn’t a Trade Secrets Podcast, well, all is explained inside. And per usual I go over the New Releases of the Week.
