The Book Report Podcast #160: Mick Foley’s Armpit Stew

December 15, 2013

Welcome, scabies and germs, to the 160th installment of The Book Report, Crave Online’s comic book podcast, with your hosts, Andy Hunsaker and Iann Robinson, aka The Punky in the Brewster.

This week, we discuss the possibilities of the announced Sinister Six and Venom movies, because what? Also, we’ve got a big batch of books to bark about, including Batman, Justice League, Justice League 3000, Superman/Wonder Woman, Nightwing, Mighty Avengers, Inhumanity: The Awakening, Arkham War, Thunderbolts, Alex + Ada, Manifest Destiny, Nova, Walking Dead, Superior Foes of Spider-Man, Green Lantern Corps, Uber, Marvel Knights: Hulk and more. Also, our recurring pro wrestling tangent is actually relevant, because there is now a WWE Superstars comic! I promise, this diversion is entertaining.

Comic Channel Editor

Comics Editor Andy Hunsaker has written for Yahoo! Movies, Fancast, XfinityTV and UGO, among others, covering movies and television, and has loved comics ever since he read the giant-sized Marvel Treasury Edition of The Rampaging Hulk #26 four thousand times and grew to love guys with weird heads like M.O.D.O.K. and the Bi-Beast. Therefore, he will also defend Ang Lee's Hulk, although he understands why you don't like it and won't hold that against you.

As far as reviews go, he believes the main point of being a critic is not to pass yourself off as the final arbiter of quality passing holy judgment on a work of art, but rather just to share opinions so that the reader can decide whether or not the critic is someone whose tastes generally align with theirs. If so, that reviewer is one whose work you can trust if you're curious about a particular title. If not, cue loud, angry internet vitriol.
