Geek Brunch 141.1 – Micah Brunches Alone

Apologies in advance dear listeners. Both Mike and Bill are away on secret missions this week, and Micah decided it would be a good idea to talk by himself into a microphone. Yup. Listen to the shortest episode of Geek Brunch Ever (someone fact check this) [NOTE FROM DEREK: Yes, it is, by about 23 minutes.] as Micah tries to pull a Lynne Rossetto Kasper and talk about pancakes. He also has a scatterbrained look at Grant Morrison’s Batman by way of Final Crisis and Ed Brubaker’s Captain America by way of Civil War. He ends with Phineas and Ferb or some such. It’s all rather sad.

Here’s a link to the Grant Morrison article http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/grant-morrison-on-the-death-of-comics-20110822

And here’s to Micah’s blog that he actually doesn’t want you to read hypocriticalhyperbole.wordpress.com

My Top Ten Writers

I have a database for my comic books called Comic Collector. One of my favorite features is called Statistics.

As of 10/5/2010, here is a list of the ten comic book writers who show up the most in my collection.

1. Mark Waid
2. Keith Giffen
3. Chris Claremont
4. Chuck Dixon
5. Geoff Johns
6. Grant Morrison
7. Alan Moore
8. Dan Jurgens
9. Mike Baron
10. J.M. DeMatteis

Anyone who has heard my podcast has heard the phrase “I’m not the biggest Mark Waid fan.” Apparently I like the dude a lot more than I thought I did. I wonder how much this list will change once I populate all of the entries.
