This week's iFanboy Pick of the Week is sponsored by Jim Hanley's Universe and Netflix!
Running Time: 00:57:02
Discussion:
00:00:27 - We present an entire history of Superman since he died, courtesy of a mystery listener. Crazy!
Pick of the Week:
00:02:04 - Ron's Pick of the Week was Dynamo 5 #7, because it was just the most fun.
Comics:
00:10:24 - The Green Arrow/Black Canary Wedding Special is Conor's favorite book this week, just like the JLA Wedding Special was last week.
00:17:27 - Josh is all about JLA/Hitman #1, and wants DC to get those trades out!
00:22:09 - Captain America #30 is so good it's hard to tell when it's good. But it was good.
00:28:40 - Try as they might, iFanboy just can't get behind World War Hulk #4. Conor's doing it page by page from here on out.
00:32:49 - Ron takes a spin at the The Umbrella Academy #1 made by rock stars and Brazillians.
00:32:38 - The Irredeemable Ant-Man ends, but it turns out he might not be so irredeemable.

E-Mails:
00:39:23 - Both Rusty from Boston, Massachusetts and Sam from Baltimore, Maryland have been a bit disappointed by Y: The Last Man, and they make a lot of good points about why it's not good. They're wrong, but we read the letters anyway.

Voicemails:
00:45:02 - Luke from Denver, Colorado is quizzing iFanboy on some indie works, like The Nightly News, Martha Washington, and Action Philosophers.
00:47:47 - Craig from Kansas wants to know if we saw the Doctor Strange movie, which we didn't, but we did see Superman: Doomsday, and we just did a podcast about it!
00:49:22 - Carol from St. Louis, Missouri wants to know what comics should be adapted for TV.
00:52:02 - Oh yes, he's back.
