CCL Podcast #196 – Batman Death and the Maidens and Batman and Son

It’s been a while since I covered any new Batman collected editions and when I say new I mean original material that has come out in the past five years. That changes today when I discuss not one, but two recent books: Death and the Maidens TP (2004) and Batman and Son HC (2007). The common theme that runs through both is that of villain Ra’s al Ghul. Both books call upon Batman’s past and his future, whatever that may turn out to be.

There’s a lack of news on this week’s, but I make up for it by running down a few upcoming books from DC and Marvel that may be worth your investment. I also follow-up last weeks Annihilation Classic show and tell you about what may be the real first appearance of Rocket Raccoon.

All this including the Product and Shipping Updates and the New Releases of the Week.

Lot’s of great news and reviews have come out in the past few weeks. Let’s get right to them:

The Detroit Free Press is adding something fun to their Annual week long Football Preview – Superheroes! Every day the Freep is showcasing a promising player )prep, college or pro). So far they have profiled The Hulk: East Lansing’s Blake Treadwell, Thor: Detroit Cass Tech’s William Campbell, and The Flash: Oak Park RB Edwin Baker (Michigan State).

Ultimate Star Wars Graphic Novel Collection: Contents. This 10 Volume Hardcover set is very different from the 12 Volume 30th Anniversary Hardcover set that Dark Horse did last year. More information will be forthcoming.

Richard over at the FPI Blog Log is looking at runs that should be collected. Richard does an excellent job all of them are no brainiers. Part 1 and Part 2 with more to come.

Collected Editions on Foil Stamping on the DC Hardcovers. So far all of my foil is staying on – time will tell.

The World Science Fiction Society, which sponsors the Hugo Awards (and the annual World Science Fiction Convention), has added a category for Best Graphic Story to the awards.

Michael C. Lorah, Newsarama.com, talks with Rob Vollmar on his new book Bluseman (NBM).

Vertical Inc. is producing exclusive limited edition hardcovers of the first three volumes in its series reprinting Osamu Tezuka’s Black Jack manga for Diamond Comic Distributors.

DVD Review: Madison Carter, Pop Syndicate, on Popeye the Sailor: 1938-1940.

DVD Review: R.J. Carter, The Trades, on DC Super Heroes – The Filmation Adventures.

Review: Robert Langro, The Trades, on Flash Archives Volume 4.

Review: Mike Sterling on The Herbie Archives Volume 1 (Dark Horse).

Review: Tom Spurgeon, Comics Reporter, on The Complete Little Orphan Annie, Vol. 1 (IDW) and Scorchy Smith and the Art Of Noel Sickles (IDW).

Review: Collected Editions Blog on Batman: The Resurrection of Ra’s al Ghul HC (DC Comics) and Hawkgirl: Hawkman Returns TPB (DC Comics).

Error in Showcase Presents: Haunted Tank Vol. 2

July 14, 2008

By CJM

It’s been confirmed from two sources that Showcase Presents: Haunted Tank Volume 2 has a printing error. Pages 107 and 152 are the same page. Page 152 should be something different.

No word from DC Comics if there will be some sort of recall or 2nd Printing like there was for Showcase Presents: Superman Family Volume 2. If I get any more information, I’ll be sure to post it.

Long time listeners of the Podcast will remember that last year I did a show devoted to Free Comic Book Day. In that particular episode, I went over all the books that were given out and then I gave recommendations as to what collected editions would go well with that title. Due to the concept of the show, it was a hit and remains one of my most downloaded shows ever! Now it’s 2008 and I’m back for Round 2. This episode was fun to record (I don’t say that enough) and I hope you’ll enjoy it too, and save it for future reference.

Also, I go over what I read, and watched, over the weekend, some shipping updates, and The New Releases of the Week.
