This week on Hold 322… Star Trek! We talk about the new movie and try our damndest to not spoil anything. In comics, Brubaker gives us a new Fatale; Batgirl fights the ventriloquist (is this an update to a Batman villain); one year later, and Miles is still not Spider-Man, despite Spider-Woman’s influence; we learn the origin of Tony Stark; and Captain Marvel starts a crossover event. We break down the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. trailer, and Bob asks: “what’s your favorite Star Trek movie?”

All this and your Age of Ultron update! Face front, true believer! It’s Hold 322.

Melissa Merlot joined Jeff, Jon, and Forrest in the studio again – I think she’s sweet on us, and, really, who the hell would blame her? We’re adorable! Or something. Shit, maybe she felt like she couldn’t leave? Prison mentality? I dunno. Look, this one is VERY funny, and very, very …um … naughty. We’ve got an all new GOP Jesus Wanker of the Week, the Ghomert of the minute, Jason Williams is back with an all new Bat Sh@t Crazy – breaking down the Utah GOP and their wacky weekend of weird! That and so much more!

Holy Buckets, we are BACK! JM, JC, and Forrest were joined by the lovely, talented, and funny Melissa Merlot - who may or may not have something to do with Conspurracy Theories. Check out her stuff at www.melissamerlot.com. There was a lot to talk about on our first show back from – where ever the hell we ended up. Except for Free Comic Book Day. We knew what happened there, I guess.

Regardless – here we are! And, guess what? It’s like every dirty joke we haven’t used in polite company over the last month sneaked into this show.

This week on Hold 322! Millar delivers again with his latest epic, Jupiter’s Legacy. I, Vampire finally comes to an end as does Before Watchmen. Both end with a whimper. Miles Morales says: “Ultimate Spider-Man No More!” Guardians of the Galaxy continues their epic, and speaking of epic, there are at least three ways the world could end in four different Avengers comics… IDW becomes a corporate sponsor of the CBLDF and to celebrate Mars Attacks attacks Judge Dredd, Powers is getting a series, Quicksilver and the Scarlett Witch will be in Avengers 2, and the Siegel court battle is finally over? And Thom got his prize pack.

All this, and Bob’s Question  SYCOPHANTIC INTERVIEW of the Week! Face front, true believers! It’s Hold 322!

CLICKY –> 129 The LEFT Show makes my bits tickle

Yup, Alex Cragun again! That dude from SLUG Magazine, you might recall him from Monday’s show. Forrest, Ultimate Bob and I welcomed him into the studio to talk about all the stuff below. Jason and Jake are still on their honeymoon, apparently, and we continue to with them well.

In other news, while you listen to this episode, we’re at the Night Flight Comics location at 6222 S State Street (across from the Fashion Place Mall) and not the Library Square. May the 4th be with you on Free Comic Book Day – we’ll start recording about 11am, and keep going till it gets hot. Or whatever.

128 The LEFT Show – Texas Weeps

Hello little bunnies! It’s a strange kind of reflective week we have in front of us, so … let’s get to it, eh? Alex Cragun from Slug Magazine joined J.M. Bell, Forrest, and FNG Ultimate Bob in the studio to cover all the bits and pieces you see below you. It was fun. Listen in!

This week on Hold 322 – as we remember the true heroes in Boston this past week, we look on with lackluster enthusiasm at two of DC’s offerings in the hold this week, putting both Batwoman and Nightwing on the chopping block. Still, Justice League was great, but with so many disappointments in this series will this new arc end as badly as the previous arcs? (survey sez: YES!) We get the requisite “shocking” issue in Age of Ultron, Otto discovers the little Peter hiding in his head in Superior Spider-Man, and the tumor in Carol’s head is leading into a crossover with Avengers Assemble. Doctor Who: Prisoners of Time brings us the 4th Doctor and captures the whimsy, tone and artistic style of his comics perfectly.

All this and Bob’s Question of the Week! Face front, true believers! It’s Hold 322!

127 The LEFT Show Podcast <– CLICKY!

Here I am getting the post together, sticking the links up because, unlike the Fox News guys, we don’t make shit up, when I remember that, in addition to THE Ernie Gamonal joining JM Bell, Forrest Shaw, and JC Carter in the studio, Jason Williams sent along a new Bat Sh@t Crazy and I forgot to stick it in the final export. Since none of you chuckleheads actually read these posts, I’m going to assume it’s all your fault. Okay? Cool. Hang on a minute while I get Jason’s thing in here – it’s all about the GOP pissy pantsing all over themselves last week. Chickenshits, am I right? So … hang on a few minutes while I go re-edit this thing for you folks … there you go! Enjoy!

All this and more!

126 The LEFT Show – Plus One! <- CLICKY

Well, shit, folks. Last week sucked. Out Loud! This week looks poised to join in the pile-on. Just a quick heads up before the intro and the links – CALL YOUR CONGRESSCRITTER TODAY! CISPA is set to pass while everyone os looking the other way. Get on the damn phone, the twitter, and the Facebook. Even MySpace. Help stop it.

Now – Ernie Gamonal joined JC, Forrest, and myself (JM Bell) in my glorious studio, and, while he wasn’t as pretty an last week’s guest, was quite funny and had a hat.

Here’s your links, ’cause Jason is AWOL again this week.

125 The LEFT Show’s – Not too shabby! <– CLICKY

First piece of business, for those who were wondering, friend of the show, and my long time pal, Janneke, is safe and sound back in Boston, if a little frazzled. Remember – we pre-record The LEFT Show because we haven’t found a rich person with a sense of humor enough to fund live operations, so, this was obviously recorded before the bombing.

Celina Milner and and Ray Mondo are back in the studio with JM and Forrest. Jake is still AWOL and Jason seems to have joined him. It’s a pretty sad state of affairs really. Quite pathetic and unacceptable.

Regardless, here are you links!
