Here Today, Gone Tomorrow!

Fantagraphics "Gets Off" Easy!

Glowing praise for the Comic Book Haters' very own Indie Video Spotlight was gushed down from the keyboard of Eric Reynolds, cigar-smoking bigwig from Fantagraphics Books. Please note, Reynolds may not actually smoke cigars. He did, however, heap accolades down upon the CBH crew on the Fantagraphics Blog yesterday. Reynolds said, in part, quote, I'm not sure there's anything more entertaining than listening to three guys with thick Jersey accents trying to make sense of something they're not very familiar with.

Indie Video Spotlight - Season 2, Episode 1 (iPod Version)

To kick off season two of their special Video Indie Spotlight, the Comic Book Haters got drunk. Whilst drinking the CBH crew perused the most recent edition of MOME, the super-artsy anthology from Fantagraphics Publishing. DJ Sloofus, Schooly G, and Umbrellaman all chipped in their two cents worth, giving this episode a total value of approximately seven cents (with a margin of error of 1 cent per individual involved). In addition to a new season, we're also debuting a new file type. Instead of the measly MPEG format, the show has switched over to the mighty AVI. This means better resolution, full-screen quality, and an incompatability with Apple's iPod. If you're having trouble viewing it, try the free VLC player, email the CBH crew or wait for the streaming version. Otherwise, Click here to enjoy the frivolity. Special thanks to the folks at Fantagraphics for supplying review copies of the book.

CBH Gets Derivative; Enlists Surfer Army

The CBH Fall Lineup is in full swing, with this week seeing the debut of Season Two of the Comic Book Haters' Indie Video Spotlight. Be sure to check in on the Funnybook Dungeon web comic, as Brad Hodges (of Derivative Comics fame) is consistently cranking out some stellar material. Also, look for the fourth CBH Radio Drama, "AKA AK47 in the Archipelago of Dr. Umbrellaman," to hit the netwaves later this sesaon. The radio dramas have been one of the most popular aspects of the CBH phenomenon, since their humble beginnings years ago with "The Comic Book Haters versus the Zombies," "CBH: Behind the Hatred," and "Schooly's Christmas Carol" consistently scoring in the 'most downloaded' episodes of all time. This time, the crew is soliciting your help. If you have any self-generated music of a surfy/spy nature which you would like to donate to the score, please email thecomicbookhaters@yahoo.com. Bumper tracks, full-length epics, and little ditties are all welcome.

Episode CIL - "For Those About to Salute, We Mock You," 1985

Mark Millar has been single-handedly reinventing the Marvel Universe over the course of the past few years. It really makes you wonder, though, what he's been doing with the other hand.
