[SPEAKER_00]: And if you've ever loved Batman thought, what if someone took this way too seriously?
15:23.611 --> 15:25.452
[SPEAKER_00]: The Detective Face has you covered.
15:26.153 --> 15:33.077
[SPEAKER_00]: In your episode twice a month, wherever you get your podcast on the waiting-to-doom feed, or at waiting-to-doom.com.
15:34.618 --> 15:35.298
[SPEAKER_00]: Therapy Pending.
15:36.439 --> 15:39.360
[SPEAKER_00]: I heard that Dr. Hirtnstein might be available.
15:43.062 --> 15:45.624
[SPEAKER_03]: And now, back to just another fanboy.
15:48.635 --> 15:51.816
[SPEAKER_03]: In this week, for Marvel, Wolverine Origins No.
15:51.836 --> 15:58.057
[SPEAKER_03]: 7 written by Daniel W. Art by Steve Dillon covered by Joe Cuassada, during the Cold War.
15:58.637 --> 16:04.339
[SPEAKER_03]: Logan, along with T-Mex, performed several secret missions inside Russia.
16:04.959 --> 16:13.141
[SPEAKER_03]: One of which was the sabotage of Russia's fledgling super-soldier program, and the destruction of the program's result.
16:13.641 --> 16:17.122
[SPEAKER_03]: In particular, the psychotic cyborg known as
16:18.922 --> 16:26.306
[SPEAKER_03]: Logan's memory of this mission has only recently returned to him, but Omega Red has thought of nothing else ever since.
16:26.867 --> 16:28.608
[SPEAKER_03]: It is time for some payback.
16:29.328 --> 16:31.829
[SPEAKER_03]: And that was my comic book, Bixie The Week.
16:32.290 --> 16:37.853
[SPEAKER_03]: Remember you still have the opportunity to change Stephen's mind.
16:38.373 --> 16:40.514
[SPEAKER_03]: Because I'm just not down with the indie books.
16:41.194 --> 16:43.795
[SPEAKER_03]: Actually, I should say my wallet's not down with the indie books.
16:44.275 --> 16:52.338
[SPEAKER_03]: But if you have an indie book that you love, that you'd like me to read, or email me at just another fanboy at gmail.com and try to sell your recommendation.
16:52.678 --> 16:57.220
[SPEAKER_03]: If you can sell it, then I'll drop a book I'm currently getting, and pick up your indie instead.
16:57.620 --> 17:02.322
[SPEAKER_03]: So remember... Change even even by my mind.
17:03.242 --> 17:05.863
[SPEAKER_03]: And now the low rent fanboy tip of the week.
17:17.023 --> 17:28.173
[SPEAKER_03]: way back in episode number two I took it upon myself to try and help out my fellow comic fans who like me didn't make a lot of money and couldn't spend a lot each month on comics and yet wanted to read all that they wanted to.
17:28.593 --> 17:30.875
[SPEAKER_03]: So I started the low rent fanboy tip of the week.
17:31.376 --> 17:35.519
[SPEAKER_03]: Sadly it looks as if I don't really have that much advice in me as five episodes later.
17:35.900 --> 17:36.460
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm all up.
17:36.761 --> 17:39.803
[SPEAKER_03]: So this week I thought we'd take a look back and review the previous tips.
17:40.284 --> 17:42.706
[SPEAKER_03]: Tip number one order your books online.
17:43.026 --> 17:44.087
[SPEAKER_03]: So you're online, right?
17:44.447 --> 17:45.448
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, you gotta be.
17:45.628 --> 17:47.929
[SPEAKER_03]: You downloaded this glorious bit of audio goodness.
17:48.429 --> 17:52.452
[SPEAKER_03]: So if you're online, then you can take advantage of the online subscription services out there.
17:52.845 --> 17:58.351
[SPEAKER_03]: There are a couple of great ones out there that I know of, mailowner comics.com and DCB service.com.
17:58.771 --> 18:03.456
[SPEAKER_03]: These are online stores where you order your comics a few months in advance, just like your local comic book store.
18:03.796 --> 18:07.580
[SPEAKER_03]: Both of these services will save you about 35 to 40% off cover price.
18:08.040 --> 18:14.066
[SPEAKER_03]: Ensure you still have to pay shipping and handling, but I can tell you that I saved 20 to 30 bucks each and every month going this route.
18:14.427 --> 18:16.669
[SPEAKER_03]: Check the places out and see which one is best for you.
18:19.649 --> 18:21.791
[SPEAKER_03]: Tip number two, know your library.
18:22.151 --> 18:26.215
[SPEAKER_03]: Did you know that most public libraries now carry graphic novels and trade paperbacks?
18:26.775 --> 18:28.336
[SPEAKER_03]: Neither did I until just a year ago?
18:28.777 --> 18:29.717
[SPEAKER_03]: Thanks for the library.
18:29.757 --> 18:33.761
[SPEAKER_03]: I've been able to go back and read most of the books I've missed out on due to an empty wallet.
18:34.121 --> 18:35.102
[SPEAKER_03]: Get a library card.
18:35.362 --> 18:36.143
[SPEAKER_03]: You won't be sorry.
18:39.069 --> 18:39.869
[SPEAKER_03]: Tip number three.
18:40.270 --> 18:41.911
[SPEAKER_03]: Stop buying so many books.
18:42.451 --> 18:43.571
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, this is a simple one.
18:43.892 --> 18:47.714
[SPEAKER_03]: There seems to be a multitude of fanboys out there who purchased tons of books each week.
18:48.114 --> 18:51.035
[SPEAKER_03]: So many that both of them pile up and are left on red for months.
18:51.556 --> 18:55.998
[SPEAKER_03]: Then these same fanboys piss and moan over how much money they have to spend on these books.
18:56.498 --> 18:58.679
[SPEAKER_03]: If you can't really afford them, then don't buy them.
18:59.060 --> 18:59.700
[SPEAKER_03]: I know it's hard.
18:59.980 --> 19:00.520
[SPEAKER_03]: I really do.
19:00.901 --> 19:03.342
[SPEAKER_03]: I've been there, but sometimes you just gotta say no.
19:06.322 --> 19:08.143
[SPEAKER_03]: Tip number four, use the internet.
19:08.484 --> 19:13.448
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, please don't take this statement to think that I'm condoning the illegal download of comics, because I don't condone it.
19:13.808 --> 19:19.112
[SPEAKER_03]: What I mean is that there are a ton of sites out there that offer info and story information on all your favorite books.
19:19.673 --> 19:22.835
[SPEAKER_03]: Use the internet to research and catch up on all the backstories you've missed.
19:23.216 --> 19:24.777
[SPEAKER_03]: You'll be happier for it, trust me.
19:27.720 --> 19:29.761
[SPEAKER_03]: Tip number five, share your comics.
19:30.221 --> 19:32.522
[SPEAKER_03]: Get some friends together who are in the same pickle as you.
19:32.742 --> 19:34.583
[SPEAKER_03]: Pull your money and buy all the books you want.
19:34.963 --> 19:38.345
[SPEAKER_03]: I would recommend determining ahead of time however who gets to keep the books.
19:39.205 --> 19:41.846
[SPEAKER_03]: And those are all of your low rent fan boy tips.
19:42.326 --> 19:49.229
[SPEAKER_03]: Remember if you have any tips of your own, please share them with me by riding to justnotherfanboyatgmail.com and I'll include them in an upcoming episode.
19:49.550 --> 19:51.851
[SPEAKER_03]: Like next week, cause I ain't got no more my own.
20:12.152 --> 20:17.456
[SPEAKER_03]: Gary is going to recite some dialogue from one of his favorite movies, and your job is to write in and tell us what movie it is.
20:17.917 --> 20:22.661
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're the first to write in with the correct answer, you will win a $10 gift certificate for my tunes.
20:23.141 --> 20:26.884
[SPEAKER_03]: This week, Gary is joined by Norman's baby sister, Eat It Oklahoma.
20:27.224 --> 20:30.267
[SPEAKER_03]: And now, at the movies with Gary and Diana.
20:31.160 --> 20:32.701
[SPEAKER_04]: I'll never see you again.
20:33.301 --> 20:34.522
[SPEAKER_04]: Of course you will.
20:34.903 --> 20:36.904
[SPEAKER_04]: But what if something happens to you?
20:37.365 --> 20:40.467
[SPEAKER_04]: Here this now, I will come for you.
20:40.867 --> 20:42.349
[SPEAKER_04]: But how can you be sure?
20:42.789 --> 20:44.050
[SPEAKER_04]: This is true love.
20:44.450 --> 20:46.352
[SPEAKER_04]: You think this happens every day?
20:46.692 --> 20:47.873
[SPEAKER_03]: Do you think you know the movie?
20:48.213 --> 20:51.456
[SPEAKER_03]: Email us here at justanotherfanboy at gmail.com with your answer.
21:01.308 --> 21:06.054
[SPEAKER_03]: This week on Heroes, a spoiler-ific look at the latest episode of Heroes on NBC.
21:06.434 --> 21:14.964
[SPEAKER_03]: The ultimate Japanese fanboy hero uses a comic book he took from five weeks into the future to talk his friend and to going to New York with him to help him save the city.
21:15.324 --> 21:16.365
[SPEAKER_03]: How does a comic book help?
21:16.726 --> 21:18.488
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, it's written and drawn by Isaac.
21:18.588 --> 21:21.510
[SPEAKER_03]: The artist who paints the future when he's all doped up on heroin.
21:21.890 --> 21:27.553
[SPEAKER_03]: And the issue that hero has actually shows him having the exact conversation with his friend about going to New York.
21:27.893 --> 21:34.857
[SPEAKER_03]: His friend isn't convinced until hero takes him outside where, according to the comic, a little girl is about to be run over by a truck in the street.
21:35.217 --> 21:39.918
[SPEAKER_03]: Just before it happens, he roast stops time and saves the girl as well as convincing his friend.
21:40.238 --> 21:41.598
[SPEAKER_03]: They soon set out for New York.
21:41.898 --> 21:45.379
[SPEAKER_03]: We see a little Isaac in this episode, which is to say not much.
21:45.819 --> 21:49.180
[SPEAKER_03]: His girl breaks up with them and runs straight into the arms of Peter.
21:49.580 --> 22:01.262
[SPEAKER_03]: Speaking of Peter, his brother Nathan, the one who can fly and his running for Congress, holds a press conference and tells a city that the reason that Peter jumped off the building was because he is suffering from depression and that it was a suicide attempt.
22:01.582 --> 22:05.326
[SPEAKER_03]: Needless to say, Peter ain't nine two happy and socks old Nathan in the jaw.
22:05.727 --> 22:12.435
[SPEAKER_03]: Nikki berries the two dead mob dudes in the desert, while digging she comes across a skeleton with a skull ring which he takes to her mother-in-law.
22:12.815 --> 22:20.384
[SPEAKER_03]: It seems as if her husband is on the run for killing some members of his crew, all of which wear a skull ring just like the one Nikki took off the skeleton.
22:20.704 --> 22:26.289
[SPEAKER_03]: Later in the episode, she has pulled over by a cop working for the head mob guy, and he takes Nikki in her son away.
22:26.669 --> 22:31.753
[SPEAKER_03]: Meanwhile, Matt, the telepathic cop, convinces the FBI agent who arrested him that he can read minds.
22:32.254 --> 22:36.938
[SPEAKER_03]: She takes him to talk to the little girl he saved, see if he can pick something out of her head, because she sure ain't talking.
22:37.218 --> 22:44.287
[SPEAKER_03]: They arrived to find that Siler, the patient zero, who I think has all the same powers of the heroes combined, has come to kill the little girl.
22:44.648 --> 22:53.079
[SPEAKER_03]: He used some sort of mind-over-matter thing to force the FBI lady to put her gun to her head, but before he could make her pull the trigger, Matt fills them full of lead.
22:53.519 --> 22:55.242
[SPEAKER_03]: Siler just gets back up and flies away.
22:55.602 --> 22:59.184
[SPEAKER_03]: Claire is killed when the quarterback tries to rape her at a homecoming party.
22:59.404 --> 23:04.586
[SPEAKER_03]: When she resists him, he pushes her and she falls to the ground and has a large stick piercer head.
23:04.986 --> 23:13.650
[SPEAKER_03]: She wakes on an autopsy table after the stick is taken out of her head and she finds that the entire chest has been opened up and we see all her organs and various other yucky type stuff.
23:14.110 --> 23:29.269
[SPEAKER_03]: Mohinder, in the meantime, and his new lady friend, find a diary that his dad has left behind, and they use it to track down silers' apartment where they find all kinds of weird stuff, including a message scrolled on the wall that says, for give me.
23:29.689 --> 23:33.514
[SPEAKER_03]: They get the cops to come to the place, and when they show back up to show the cops,
23:33.934 --> 23:38.355
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god, everything is gone, and that was this week on Heroes.
23:38.855 --> 23:45.977
[SPEAKER_03]: Next week, according to NBC.com slash heroes, the world becomes a bit smaller when the heroes start coming together.
23:46.337 --> 23:51.038
[SPEAKER_03]: Ooh, and don't miss the online comic on NBC.com slash heroes.
23:51.458 --> 23:55.259
[SPEAKER_03]: This week's installment is written by Chuck Kim with Art by Marcus Toe.
23:55.979 --> 23:58.960
[SPEAKER_03]: And now, the view from Norman Oklahoma.
24:05.516 --> 24:15.081
[SPEAKER_03]: The view from Norman Oklahoma, a weekly segment in which our resident, bitter old fanboy, pisses in bones regarding the world of comics, or just anything that generally pisses him off.
24:15.561 --> 24:17.603
[SPEAKER_03]: Ladies and gentlemen, Norman Oklahoma.
24:20.604 --> 24:21.785
[SPEAKER_04]: Now the other day it worked.
24:22.225 --> 24:23.286
[SPEAKER_03]: I would hold on, hold on.
24:23.686 --> 24:23.986
[SPEAKER_03]: Work?
24:24.486 --> 24:25.127
[SPEAKER_04]: You work?
24:25.647 --> 24:27.108
[SPEAKER_04]: You bet you're feeding out work.
24:27.288 --> 24:28.188
[SPEAKER_04]: Why wouldn't I work?
24:28.529 --> 24:29.869
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, for starters, you're 157 years old.
24:31.478 --> 24:31.658
[SPEAKER_03]: And?
24:32.499 --> 24:34.621
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, it shouldn't you be retired or something?
24:34.641 --> 24:36.922
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, these are your golden years after all.
24:37.343 --> 24:38.904
[SPEAKER_04]: Just because I'm old, I shouldn't work.
24:39.244 --> 24:40.645
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm a fit man, I can work.
24:40.986 --> 24:42.066
[SPEAKER_03]: Fine, fine, okay.
24:42.427 --> 24:43.247
[SPEAKER_03]: So what do you do anyway?
24:43.648 --> 24:45.089
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm an operator at a call center.
24:45.489 --> 24:47.270
[SPEAKER_03]: An operator at a call center.
24:47.611 --> 24:49.252
[SPEAKER_04]: Look, can I do my segment already?
24:49.612 --> 24:51.073
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, yeah, sorry, go ahead.
24:51.414 --> 24:51.794
[SPEAKER_04]: Thank you.
24:52.234 --> 24:53.715
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, the other day it worked.
24:54.096 --> 24:57.238
[SPEAKER_04]: I get that all over feeling that you get when your body is telling you
24:59.660 --> 25:02.984
[SPEAKER_04]: So I grab a comic book and hit off to the rest room closest to my desk.
25:03.384 --> 25:06.588
[SPEAKER_04]: I find the place occupied and know there are empty stalls available.
25:06.848 --> 25:10.232
[SPEAKER_04]: I leave because I just can't make myself poop when someone else is in the room.
25:10.613 --> 25:13.516
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, I check down to the hallway to the other bathroom.
25:13.896 --> 25:15.939
[SPEAKER_04]: Find it pleasantly empty and enter a stall.
25:16.259 --> 25:21.706
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm only two pages into my comic when my nose starts to run and I realize that a really good blow might be an order.
25:22.147 --> 25:27.534
[SPEAKER_04]: Now, being a civilized person, I reach for some paper from the toilet paper dispenser to blow my nose upon.
25:27.874 --> 25:28.716
[SPEAKER_04]: And that's when I see it.
25:29.016 --> 25:33.963
[SPEAKER_04]: A fix to the wall, just mirages from the dispenser, is a large glob of dried up luggers.
25:34.383 --> 25:35.364
[SPEAKER_04]: Why do people do this?
25:35.844 --> 25:39.265
[SPEAKER_04]: I see this in practically every public restroom I have ever used.
25:39.646 --> 25:42.587
[SPEAKER_04]: They're not just in the sit-down stalls, but at the girls as well.
25:42.987 --> 25:47.249
[SPEAKER_04]: I suppose I can play devil's advocate and try to understand the guy who is standing at a girl.
25:47.590 --> 25:54.233
[SPEAKER_04]: He's absolutely given the outside of his nostril a good scratch, which naturally developed him to give an insight of his nostril a good scratch.
25:54.653 --> 26:13.796
[SPEAKER_04]: Which then involves in the him stand in there two knuckles deep given his nose a well deserved pick next thing he knows He's got a great big bit of snots stuck to the end of his index finger and he has no place to put it What does he do in this situation his pants are open he has one hand on his well Thingy and the other is currently being used as a booger stand
26:14.156 --> 26:20.479
[SPEAKER_04]: It's difficult to fasten one's fly with one hand and he doesn't really want to walk over to the paper towel dispenser with the stinging hanging out.
26:20.880 --> 26:22.160
[SPEAKER_04]: So he's left with one option.
26:22.540 --> 26:23.861
[SPEAKER_04]: Wipe in the bugger on the wall.
26:24.261 --> 26:25.062
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay, I get that.
26:25.442 --> 26:32.906
[SPEAKER_04]: However, why can't he go back after he's zipped in wash and use a paper towel or some toilet paper to wipe that dirt thing off the wall?
26:33.286 --> 26:37.653
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, let's play Devil's Advocate once more, and assume that he was grabbing the paper towel.
26:37.993 --> 26:48.789
[SPEAKER_04]: Someone else came into the bathroom, and is now standing at the very same booger-stained urinal stall that our friend just recently vacated, and he's too embarrassed to admit to be in the one who painted the wall was not, and instead fleece.
26:49.310 --> 26:50.491
[SPEAKER_04]: Again, I get that.
26:50.831 --> 26:56.016
[SPEAKER_04]: What I don't get is the guy sitting in a stall with the door and a toilet paper dispenser.
26:56.316 --> 26:59.959
[SPEAKER_04]: And still feels the need to wipe his nose, nug it on the wall.
27:00.359 --> 27:02.181
[SPEAKER_04]: I've even seen some burgers on the door.
27:02.561 --> 27:06.684
[SPEAKER_04]: You can't reach the door from the toilet, so obvious somebody is flicking them onto the door.
27:07.104 --> 27:09.226
[SPEAKER_04]: We're talking booger projectiles here, people.
27:09.727 --> 27:11.268
[SPEAKER_04]: Anyway, that just pisses me off.
27:11.548 --> 27:12.509
[SPEAKER_04]: That's all I got to say.
27:13.229 --> 27:13.670
[SPEAKER_04]: Adios!
27:20.778 --> 27:29.467
[SPEAKER_03]: OK, thank you Norman Oklahoma for that insightful look and two public restrooms and corporate America, and that ends our episode for the week.
27:29.927 --> 27:40.257
[SPEAKER_03]: Remember if you'd like to write in and tell me how much you love the show, because you know you do, shoot me an email at just another fanboy at gmail.com, and so now I leave you with my final thought of the week.
27:40.718 --> 27:43.441
[SPEAKER_03]: You can't milk a cow if you ain't got no turtles.
27:43.961 --> 27:44.622
[SPEAKER_03]: See you next week.
27:48.772 --> 27:52.494
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to thank you for listening to this episode of just another fanboy.
27:52.774 --> 27:57.116
