11 O'Clock Comics Episode 211

[VinceB]

All-different! All-weird! Around Comics' Brion "Sal" Salazar picks up the baton dropped by his wayward brother, helping us through The Dark Knight Rises, Green Lantern, Avengers, and other comic book-themed films (with a little Battleship on the side), Chew Volume Five: Major League Chew from John Layman and Rob Guillory, Hiroya Oku's Gantz from Dark Horse (incorporating Eli Roth and Hostel/Cabin Fever, Human Centipede, Rob Zombie and his cinematic oeuvre, Jim Lee and 100 Bullets, Bryan Hitch, Paolo Rivera, J. Scott Campbell, Scott McCloud and Abraham Lincoln, and more!), Sammy the Mouse from Zac Sally and La Mano 21, Mark Waid's The Unknown, Eric Powell's Goon (by way of Alan Moore and Pictopia, Mike Norton, Skottie Young, Rick Remender and Fear Agent, Hellboy, Jeff Lemire, and others), IDW's Popeye #1 from Roger Langridge and Bruce Ozella, The Green River Killer, a tease for Morrison and Quitely's Flex Mentallo, podcast burnout, and a whole mess more!

I was watching some of the Fleischer bros. Popeye a while back (it's on instant watch) and man…that shit is a work of fucking art.

[leafinsectman (Dan)]

Aww yeah movie talk! Hi Sal!

I was just thinking of Gantz this week. I've read some of the manga and watched the first live action movie and I'm thinking of jumping into the anime. Looking forward to what you guys have to say.

You have to be lightning quick to beat Dan to an episode thread.

First off, thank you Vince! Being in the UK I can always count on the show being there for my Thursday morning commute. You do fine work sir!

Got as far as all the movie talk and I have to say that the whole torture porn thing just doesn't sit well with me. Just doesn't have a lot of redeeming qualities as far as I can see.

I like my horror with a bit more soul and I've really enjoyed a lot of the films coming out of Spain in the last few years. The Orphanage is a beautifully dark ghost story, even though it has the whole handheld/found footage deal [REC] is great and Julia's Eyes is fantastic too. I know Vince is somewhat of a horror connoisseur so just wondering he's seen any of them and his thoughts?

Thanks again!

[Jeppe]

Hiroya Oku, Zac Sally, Eric Powell, AND Sal? Ohh Yeeah 

[Dom]

Oh and thanks to rest of the crew too! Good to hear from Sal.

(That first post was a little Vince-love heavy...)

[TimmyWood]

Can't wait to get to this!

I see GREEN RIVER KILLER listed in the show notes.  I am midway through it... good stuff.

And my popup reminder popped up reminding me to update the Amazon stores.

Jason - "Let's Face It" by the Bosstones is when it all went downhill. You know this. Don't defend it.

Sally will suck yo' ass in. 

[Ryan 'gobo' C.]

Sally will suck yo' ass in. 

I'm almost more excited to just hold the book, it sounds like a great piece.
