Summary

This week's iFanboy Pick of the Week is sponsored by Jim Hanley's Universe and NetFlix! Running Time: 00:59:56 Pick of the Week: 00:01:11 - Conor's Pick of the Week came from out of left field, with Garth Ennis's Dan Dare #1, from Virgin Comics. Comics: 00:11:20 - Conor's way down with Gotham Underground #2. 00:14:31 - 52 Aftermath: Crime Bible: The Five Lessons of Blood #2 was much better than the first issue, but still has the worst title current in comics. 00:18:59 - "One More Day" becomes a cruel and ironic title in The Sensational Spider-Man #41. 00:25:16 - Conor thought he had it, but then he lost it, with Faker #5. 00:27:40 - Ron wants you to read the Popgun, Vol. 1 Anthology. But it's big, so he'll let you know if it's any good after he reads it. 00:30:39 - Conor's the last man standing on Batman #671. 00:31:03 - Conor stands alone a bit more on Death of the New Gods #3. 00:32:07 - Chris Bachalo confuses some more on X-Men #205. 00:34:20 - One half of Countdown to Adventure #4 is fantastic. The other half? Not so much. 00:36:49 - Fear Agent #17 is back on the horse. The alien, robot horse. E-Mails: 00:38:36 - Doculright wants to find the love for Marvel's Annihilation books. 00:40:25 - Glenn from Texas is feeling a bit in the doldrums about his books. Can we save a comic reader?!? 00:46:27 - John from Brooklyn, New York asks if we know anything about Cerebus. Voicemail: 00:48:30 - Rob from Detroit, Michigan tells us we missed out on the first two issues of Proof. 00:50:05 - Brad likes the Namor mini-series, and he's VERY excited about how it ended. 00:52:23 - Brian B. liked that we liked Powers #27, and takes issue with Darrel's criticisms. News: 00:53:46 - Help us! Take the iFanboy Survey! 00:54:53 - Another live show? Really? We'll be at Jim Hanley's Universe in Manhattan on December 28 at 8PM. More details to follow. 00:55:31 - Don't forget about the new iFanboy store for all your holiday needs!
