COMIC SCENE THE PODCAST Episode 8



I'm a guest on the latest episode of Comic Scene the Podcast.

In it I talk about The Incredible Hulk Annual 1980, and Soldier's Heart by Carol Tyler. The show was recorded just after I'd had the idea to put together my 1990s comic But a Dream!, so it's nice to have my initial burst of enthusiasm recorded.

Here's information from Phillip Vaughan at the website:

"In this episode I chat to David Robertson who runs Fred Egg Comics, and is a member of the 'That Comic Smell' podcast team. I also chat to Ian Wheeler, current Comic Scene writer, and the creator of the fondly regarded Eagle Flies Again fanzine. Ian has recently been published in Doctor Who Magazine, issue 536. Special guest starring Ian's cat!"

It's online now. Have a listen here.

THAT COMIC SMELL 43: Justice League International Vol.3



The new episode of the podcast is online now.

From the web:
“I’m BAAAAAa-aaaaack…”
Welcome to our 3rd instalment of taking a look at the JLI. You may get one of these every 6 months or every year, who knows? Either way, we will slowly but surely make our way through this entire series collection by collection.
We all stare wide-eyed and fascinated at David’s, ever brilliant, collection of single issues and he guides us through all the best pages, step by ever so beautiful and hilarious step.
We also take a look at what we have been reading recently and some of the comics that were picked up at the recent Little Shop of Heroes (www.littleshopofheroes.co.uk/) run, Dunfermline Comic Con.
This and all the usual comics chat on the only comics podcast to look better in single issues with all the ads and letters pages still in…
