SILENCE! #204
December 1st, 2016
WITH DELIVERY SMOOTH LIKE WATER FROM A FOUNTAIN, THAT’S WHY I CAN MOVE ANY MOUNTAIN
Welcome to the SILENCE! solo dining experience. For starters we have a delicious shame of kale served in a jam jar and balanced on a faucet. You’ll hate it. Fir main we have a full miniaturized roast served on a teflon sphere. For desert, well no one’s ever stayed that long to be honest. We’ve stopped bothering with desert.
Tuck in to a succulent new SILENCE! Well, it’s not that succulent. The Beast Must Die isn’t around so Gary Lactus and the Galacticats handle this one on their own. There’s some admin where we find out at last what the opposite of a crow is and some news of a Dan White original art sale! Among the sponsershippery there’s talk of buying Fraser Geesin comics too.
Then it’s off to the reviewniverse where Gary and the Galacticats talk up A.D. After Death, All-New X-Men Annual, The Ultimates 2, Gennedy Tartakovsky’s CAGE!, Sixpack and Dogwelder, Angry Youth Comix and passing mentions of Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur and Civil War 2. Let’s be honest, Gary does most of the talking, the Galacticats aren’t that committed to podcasting.
A real life mountain tale concludes the pod and then you’re free again.

I’m enjoying Six pack and dog welder but surprised at how full of in-jokes it is considering Ennis is someone who says he rarely reads superhero comics. Maybe the editor’s doing a lot of the work on this one?
Your co hosts have promise but I think they need to put a bit more effort in. My mate gets excellent podcastery from his cats by incentivizing them with some pollock. Bribery works well with cats

Yeah, I got the impression I was missing some jokey references through lack of DC knowledge. I could do with annotations I guess but then the idea of someone writing annotations for something like Six Pack and Dog Welder is surely ridiculous.

Did somebody say “annotations for something like Sixpack and Dogwelder”?

Ah yes, of course. When I said “ridiculous” I meant “inevitable”.
