It's back to the movies for the Comic Book Bears on this new podcast audio episode! The film this time is Captain America: Brave New World! It is the 35th entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe franchise, directed by Julius Onah starring Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Captain America alongside Danny Ramirez, Shira Haas, Carl Lumbly, Xosha Roquemore, Giancarlo Esposito, Liv Tyler, Tim Blake Nelson, and Harrison Ford as President Thaddeus Ross. Caleb, Bill Z and Steve offer up what they thought about the movie (spoiler warning natch) and as is custom in our movie centered episodes they also make suggestions regarding past comic book arcs featuring the film's characters we think you may enjoy. The CBB boys also roundtable a few new books - The Secret of the Garden (from the world of Hellboy), Safer Places by Kit Anderson and the Green Hornet/Miss Fury crossover series - and there a few tangents sprinkled throughout as always. So hit play or download and enjoy our latest comics and movies gabfest!

Time for a new Comic Book Bears Podcast audio episode!  Steve, Caleb and Billy Z reconvene for two hours of four color funnybook talk! On the docket this time are a few news items (Diamond's bankruptcy, Marvel Studios not inviting Rob Liefeld to an afterparty) followed by a half dozen books we wanted to spotlight. Hit play and hear about what we thought of the inaugural issues of a few new series: Aquaman (DC), West Coast Avengers (Marvel), Lawful (Boom!) and The Death of COPRA (Image). We also chat about Tim Bird's autobiographical graphic novel Adrift in a Painted Sea (Avery Hill Publishers) and DC's tabloid reprinting of the 1980 Untold Legend of The Batman mini-series.

Also, please note that this episode was recorded at the beginning of the month and as 2/3rds of the team here are huge football fans we offer up what were our Super Bowl LIX predictions. (One of us gets it spectacularly wrong.)
