Episode 102: Comics And Movies And Stuff

Time to get all up into comics and movies and…Nintendo?!

Not even Link can save the Wii U
Greetings adventurers, it’s an all new episode of The Surly Nerd and what a crazy ass episode we have lined up for you this week. After a lengthy prelude, we jump into comic book news where we get down and deep into the Marvel lawsuit with the Kirby estate and to try and lighten the mood a little bit we talk about what Chuck Palahniuk has in store for Fight Club 2, brought to you by Dark Horse comics.
We roll on over to video game news where we spend the whole time talking about Nintendo. So much information has come out this week about the state of Nintendo as a whole, and it’s not looking good. We touch on what they can do to salvage themselves or if they even can at all. Over on the entertainment side of things, we hear more about what Sony has in store for the Spider-man franchise, what Marvel has in store for Guardians of the Galaxy when it comes to animation, and GHOSTBUSTERS?! We close it all down with a discussion about how important horror and sci-fi is to history, because we are a bunch of giant nerds. Get comfy with us as we get into super sexy six pack we call episode 102 of The Surly Nerd.

Episode 101: Go **** Yourself San Diego

Comic-con, Comic-con, San Diego Comic-Con tiiiiiime!

How excited we are for the Deadpool trailer
Greetings adventurers, it’s an all new episode of The Surly Nerd! Join us as we wade through the plethora of news coming out of San Diego Comic-con. So much happened in the last week in the world of nerdy news but does ANY of it have to do with comic books? We kick our show off with that thought as we go into the winners of the Eisner Awards and from there move into what’s new for Superman in his comics as well as Marvels plans for their newest acquisition – Angela.
We slide from those comic topics over to the world of video games. John Romero tells us what he thinks about the PC vs Console war, we get deep into what makes HALO a true franchise and we bitch more and more about Ubisofts sexism. We try to talk about happier things in Entertainment News with Evil Dead television series but just end up angrier from where we started. Avengers theories, Batman V Superman rants and a discussion about the Deadpool “leaked” trailer close out our show. Get comfy with us as we get into super geeky comic discussions on episode 101 of The Surly Nerd.
