Comic Relief Podcast

Not just on this website, or facebook, or twitter, or youtube or even iTunes – but also at Cons!

At WonderCon, we will be easily spotted by wearing our Comic Relief Podcast shirts:

We will however, be at a booth at the Long Beach Comic Expo, between May 31st and June 1st.

We will be sharing a booth with our partner in crime, Colleen of Wyng’d Lyon Creations. So definitely come by and say hello!

How Do I Earn This Amazing Badge Ribbon?

Well, we want to have fun with this! So we want to make it available several ways!

We have four different tiers! (Doesn’t matter which tier you decide to do! You still get the badge ribbon!)

Option 1: The Super Hero In You. You play the Superhero Edition of Heads Up with us! Not familiar with Heads Up? Take a look one of our videos! Essentially we would hold the iPhone to our heads – and a name appears, you give clues as to who is on there (without saying any part of the name – so for example, if it’s “Superman” you can’t say “Super” or “Man” but you could say “Clark Kent” or “Man of Steel” or “He’s from Krypton!”) The game records the video, and we will compile all the videos and put them on our Youtube Channel! And you get a snazzy badge ribbon!

Option 2: The Hero In You. Don’t want to do the Heads Up game? All right, then strike us your favorite super hero pose (serious, silly, it doesn’t even matter!) We snap a picture and upload it to our Facebook (so you can go in there and tag yourself and tell people how awesome it was getting our badge ribbon!)

Option 3: The Sidekick In You. We will have some random comic trivia. Just answer the question we ask – doesn’t matter if you’re wrong or right.

Option 4: The Innocent Bystander In You. You just walk up and ask us if you can have one!

So I reached out again to the folks at MyComicShop, because I really do enjoy their site – and wanted this affiliate program to work. One of their representatives, Conan (how cool of a name is that, right?), got back to me and explained how it works. So the MyComicShop affiliate link is back over on the menu! So if you’re missing issues, I recommend using MyComicShop from our site – anything you purchase, helps fund us! (I want to extend a special thanks to Conan for explaining this to me – I somehow missed where the site showed our funds earned! – and speaking of funds earned, I also want to thank Colleen of Wyng’d Lyon Creations, for purchasing comics from our Affiliate Link and helping us out!) I also want to thank Jane N., who donated a very generous amount to our paypal link and helped also fund the site. We’re fortunate to have some amazing friends to help us out!

Comic Relief Podcast

If you haven’t already, you should come like our Facebook page, where we do most of our discussions (just because everyone seems to be more inclined to interact on social media compared going to a website to engage in conversation). Some of the things we have discussed is – Dwayne The Rock Johnson confirms DC Comics Role! and some tidbits about Avengers 2: Age of Ultron. So come join us over there!

Also – without cheating – speaking of Age of Ultron – do you know what Ultron the below image is and why it’s signficant?

If you know, sound off over here.

Another thing in the news recently is the X-Men: Days Of Future Past movie soon to hit theaters!

What’s been your favorite X-Men team or characters? Come tell us!

The Age Of Apocalypse. Come share your thoughts!

Realized last night that I hadn’t yet created the Youtube video – so I did it last night!

Are you looking for these issues? (Or any comics?) – Consider using our Affiliate Link to help keep the site ad free: Shop Here.

This was originally slated to be our third episode (first being Marvel, second being movies) – but then we shifted it around to be our 4th issue, so that we could do the Independent issue as Issue #3. So at long last, we finally get around to not only talking about DC Comics, but about The New 52 and what we like, dislike, and what we collect. (For me, that means just about every freaking single title that DC puts out under the New 52! – Tawmis).

Issue #4: The Not So New New 52 –

This issue of Comic Relief Podcast is turning out rather long. I was considering splitting into a two parter – but then I figure, you crazy, rabid, out of control fans (all two of you!) have waited for a long time! I was hoping to be done tonight (would be if I cut in two), but I go to work early tomorrow – so I will get to leave early – and get some time to work on it. I imagine I should have the entire thing available Monday night at some point.

You can reply here.

We should have Issue #4 of Comic Relief Podcast out by this coming Sunday! Thanks for being so patient!
