Earth-2.net: The Show

Des and Preston return for another edition of 1st Issue Special, this time covering 5 Ronin #1, Axe Cop: Bad Guy Earth #1, GI Joe: Infestation #1, Marvel Zombies Supreme #1!

Welcome to the X-Men, a C2E2 2011 panel.

Green Lantern, a C2E2 2011 panel.

Ian translates Christian Bale's Batman into the Queen's English, James valiantly fights a cold, Mike gives a frightening insight into his dreamscape, and all three hosts sing as they finally finish (for now) their Dark Knight Discussions by discussing The Dark Knight.

Before 1st Issue Special returns for another round of comic book reviews (DC Universe Online Legends #1, Onslaught Unleashed #1, Silver Surfer #1, and Sir Edward Grey, Witchfinder: Lost and Gone Forever #1), Mike makes two announcements regarding the future of Earth-2.net: The Show.

The Grumpy Old Fans are back for another round of old versus new! This time they pit The New Defenders #152 against Secret Avengers #8, Web of Spider-Man #11 against The Amazing Spider-Man #650, and Wonder Woman #329 against Wonder Woman #606.

Barry Allen is accused of a murder he's yet to commit (The Flash: The Dastardly Death of the Rogues), the Justice League tackles pint-sized problems (Super Friends: Mystery in Space), and Batwoman's latest foe hits a little too close to home (Batwoman: Elegy).

Ian Wilson looks at the highs and lows of the Seth Rogen vehicle, Green Hornet!

This episode of Earth-2.net: The Show is a must-listen for two reasons. First, a new segment is launched, in which the hosts compare Green Lantern (1960) #136 to Green Lantern (2005) #60, Star Wars (1977) #43 to Star Wars: Knight Errant #4, and Uncanny X-Men #141 to Uncanny X-Men #530. Second, Mike reveals something quite staggering about this show. But to hear both, you'll have to download the program!

The Green Hornet returns to Earth-2.net: The Show in these two exciting radio dramas: The Hornet Does It and Circumstances Alter Cases!

Okay, let's be honest. You're not here to listen to Dan and Mike's reviews of Fraction and The Question: Pipeline. What you really want is the rant-inducing review of Omega: The Unknown. So download away!

Kicking off the new year, Earth-2.net: The Show is proud to present two Green Hornet radio dramas: The Corpse That Wasn't There and Paroled for Revenge! Following that, Ian Wilson takes a look at the forthcoming comic book movies of 2011 - including Seth Rogen's Green Hornet.

Tommy Monaghan confronts a corrupt government official and zombie sea creatures (Hitman: Local Heroes), Thor has lost his memory but has found love (Thor: The Mighty Avenger - The God Who Fell to Earth), and a dragon-human teenager fights his maddening instincts (FireBreather, volume one). Also, Dan does something so evil, so utterly vile, that the Earth-2.net forums will explode!

It's time to review another batch of first issues! In this episode, the spotlight is on Assassin's Creed: The Fall #1, Atomic Robo and the Deadly Art of Science #1, Chaos War: Thor #1, Iron Man: Rapture #1, and Superboy #1.

Something happens in Electric Ant, but neither host can say what. Is Absolute All-Star Superman a modern classic, or does Mike have another anti-Grant Morrison rant ready to dole out? And Daredevil takes a trip into madness with Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli's Daredevil: Born Again.

Mike's computer is on its last leg, and so he makes a plea for help.

Ian Wilson returns to his Comic Reel-lief segment in order to discuss the comic book movies of 2010: Iron Man 2, The Losers, Jonah Hex, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, and Red.

This week, Dan and Mike discuss books written by Paul Dini and Mark Waid. Those being Batman: Streets of Gotham - Leviathan and Irredeemable, volume one, respectively. What could possibly go wrong?

As Earth-2.net: The Show celebrates its fifth anniversary, a chapter comes to a close. For one last time, the gang dives headfirst into the abyss that is the Saw franchise. Join us on this glorious day as we spend over three hours bidding farewell to a self-righteous killer, gracious victims, glaring plot holes, nonstop flashbacks, illogical retcons, and the rabid fanbase that would rather see another series of gritty warehouses than anything resembling common sense.

It's the last episode before the big fifth anniversary special, and it features two Green Hornet radio dramas: Torpedo on Wheels and Sabotage Finds a Name!
