00:00:02.480 --> 00:00:06.639
You're listening to the Star Wars Splash Page Comics in Review.
2
00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:12.839
It's episode number five hundred and thirteen. And since we
3
00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:15.240
don't have any new books, we won't have any new
4
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:19.039
books until August twelveth, We're gonna discuss the news or
5
00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:22.920
lack thereof, from San Diego Comic Con last week. How
6
00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:23.960
you doing, Jeff.
7
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:36.880
Dig me on the stage spin make I'm as park On.
8
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:54.840
I don't want since running the Gata scenes, I'm tired.
9
00:00:56.200 --> 00:00:57.960
I did not go to San Diego Comic Con, but
10
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:00.200
I felt like I did with everybody on message me
11
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:04.200
about everything, all the news they were hearing from it dad,
12
00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:06.319
and and my dog, you know, coughing all night long.
13
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:10.120
But but yeah, some some real exciting news. I tell
14
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:11.719
you that the two bits of news that I'm most
15
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:14.040
excited about have nothing to do with Star Wars comics.
16
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:16.400
No, they don't do that, because I bet I know
17
00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:17.200
what one of them is.
18
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:18.799
What one of them is? What do you think one
19
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:19.280
of them is?
20
00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:21.400
The Indiana Jones mini series?
21
00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:23.879
That is it? That is it? Yeah? That is it? Yeah,
22
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:26.400
Marvel's doing It's just a mini series at this point, right.
23
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:30.120
It's just just a five issue mini series. But you know,
24
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:32.319
having not been at the panel, but you know, having
25
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:38.359
been reading some of the breathless reportage, sounds to me
26
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:40.719
like perhaps it's not like we're gonna get don't think
27
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:42.319
we're gonna get a monthly ongoing, but I think we're
28
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:44.959
gonna they'll probably it would be it would behoove Marvel.
29
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:47.920
I think to do a series, you know, you know,
30
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:51.439
five five issue mini series. Yeah, and I think a lot.
31
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:54.519
I think a lot of it will hinge on how
32
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:58.079
well this new one, Indiana Jones and The Sword of
33
00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:01.879
Pandemonium fair. And I think it should fare pretty well
34
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:05.359
because it's being written by Jason Aarron and with art
35
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:08.039
by Aaron Cooter, and it is pretty much set like
36
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:10.400
right after the events of Raiders of the Lost.
37
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:12.879
Arc I'm in. Yeah. And the thing is, there are
38
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:15.159
so many Indiana Jones novels out there. They have to
39
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.400
have a wealth of of event of material with which
40
00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:19.479
to pull from as well.
41
00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:22.319
Oh, there's plenty of those novels. And there's also there's
42
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.159
also a couple of unpublished comic books, you know, that
43
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:28.400
were pitched and you know, supposedly started production but didn't
44
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:30.680
didn't fly. With the close sales toward the end of
45
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:34.400
the Dark Horse run. But even then, that's that's really irrelevant.
46
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:38.199
There's just so much potential storytelling. I mean, my god,
47
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:39.879
we could get a you know, I would, I would
48
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:42.719
pay big money for a five or seven issue mini
49
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:47.680
series focusing on Indy and a young short round. You know,
50
00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:52.120
Indy and has adventures with Wu Han from exactly People
51
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:56.039
of Doom, you know, just all you know, Indie with
52
00:02:56.120 --> 00:03:00.639
Abner Ravenwood, you know, I mean this The potential I
53
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:03.319
think is is that you know, Indy even Indian Mac
54
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:04.360
during World War Two.
55
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:07.520
Yeah, there there's plenty there, you know, unlike Star Wars
56
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.000
that you know there are there are huge swaths of
57
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.680
Indiana Jones's life that we that have not been been
58
00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:15.680
thought about. So yeah, I'm excited about that.
59
00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:19.360
The other bit of news the fact that, you know,
60
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:20.840
the fact I don't really think we're gonna get any
61
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.599
more Indiana JNG movies. No, it's gonna sort of like
62
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:27.080
it's gonna it's gonna give I think Lucasfilm Publishing a
63
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:29.599
bit more of a free hand, you know, right, hav
64
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:32.360
to be extrapolated by Cannon, although you know, when you
65
00:03:32.360 --> 00:03:35.280
think about it, Star Wars doesn't really doesn't like Cannon
66
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:37.439
that there's retools that are revamp set, right.
67
00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:40.599
But yeah. The other bit of news that I was
68
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:42.560
excited about, and I think's probably you probably have this
69
00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:44.919
one pegged as well as the announcement of Ryan Gosling
70
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:47.719
as a ghostwriter in the Marvel Years coming in twenty
71
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:49.759
twenty eight, which I thought was kind of cool and
72
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.199
directed by Sean Levy who did dead Pools and Wolverine,
73
00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:54.919
And isn't he doing Starfighter as well?
74
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:55.759
He is?
75
00:03:55.919 --> 00:03:58.599
Yeah, so yeah, Ryan Gosling is his new DeNiro. I
76
00:03:58.599 --> 00:03:59.879
guess who knows.
77
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:03.560
Although I will admit and I only say this because
78
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:06.719
because I love Nicholas Cage's ghost Writer, right. I love
79
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:08.879
the first one. I even liked the second one, which was,
80
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.159
you know, universally panned and rightfully so, but it was entertaining.
81
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:14.199
But I just I just thought it was kind of
82
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:16.920
cool in this sort of little oh hey, how about that?
83
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:20.600
You know that Ryan Gosling apparently had pitched Kevin Fagy
84
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:24.160
about being ghost writer, and then of course you know
85
00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:27.759
Ama Mendez was in the first ghost Writer who.
86
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:32.480
Is married to Ryan Gosling. Yeah, yeah, So also I
87
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:34.240
would like to point out somebody pointed out that when
88
00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:36.240
Nicholas Cage played ghost Writer the first time, he was
89
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:39.519
forty one. Gosling will be forty seven when he films his.
90
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:45.879
Oh it's too old. Oh I'm kidding. Of course, he's
91
00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:47.439
not too old. It'll be fun, you know.
92
00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:48.279
You know.
93
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:51.160
I also enjoyed the fact that we're getting I guess
94
00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:53.399
you know, again not Star Wars related, but we're getting
95
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:54.399
a Black Panther three.
96
00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:58.240
Yeah, they're gonna eight and they're gonna age to Challah
97
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:00.360
the second up, and.
98
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:03.600
He's being played by the young man from the what
99
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:04.560
was the alien movie?
100
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:09.399
Oh, Alien Romulus. He was phenomenal in that film. I've
101
00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:11.360
not seen The Long Walk, but just based on that
102
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:13.920
performance alone, the guy can do anything as far as
103
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:14.519
I'm concerned.
104
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:17.800
Oh, totally, totally, yeah, yeah, but you know, I guess
105
00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:20.040
you know. This is a Star Wars comics podcast, although
106
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:21.439
I think it should be said that Jeff and I
107
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:25.560
are planning, you know, to do an Indiana Jones comics podcast.
108
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:28.519
So Matt had been planning it for decades and he
109
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:29.680
asked me to come along.
110
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:32.360
So yeah, sure I have yeah, literally, because back back
111
00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:36.680
after you know, Disney bought Marvel back when I was
112
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:39.800
still working for the AP. I. You know, I called
113
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:43.639
Axel Alonzo, who was the then editor in chief, and
114
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:45.160
you know, I said, hey, man, I heard you guys
115
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:47.480
visited the ranch and he goes, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah,
116
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.800
you know it was just it was mostly for background stuff,
117
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:52.040
nothing big. And I said, I got to ask. He goes,
118
00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:54.199
what what what are you going to ask that you're
119
00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:57.439
gonna do Indiana Jones? And he goes, I can't say
120
00:05:57.439 --> 00:05:59.000
if we are not, but let me tell you this.
121
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:02.000
It came up. I said, okay, cool. So I have
122
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:06.120
been waiting for thirteen years, so so much so that
123
00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:10.839
you know, I have the indie comics Cavalcade dot com
124
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:12.279
website that I've been paying for.
125
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:15.480
You've been supporting on it, yeah, for a decade.
126
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:18.839
I have the Indiana Jones comics at gmail dot com.
127
00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:21.120
I have, you know, the Indiana Jones comics on Blue
128
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:22.600
Skies and.
129
00:06:22.519 --> 00:06:24.519
See, and I suggest that he should have shown Oh no,
130
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:26.800
it's not the year's Honeyt's some mile log at gmail
131
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:29.000
dot com. All one word is our email address. But
132
00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:31.800
I guess you're right, Yours is probably better.
133
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:35.279
That's easier, it's more direct. So and then I even
134
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:37.959
created an Indiana Jones comics subreddit, you know, like three
135
00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:41.079
or four years ago. So I'm like, I'm like the
136
00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:43.319
only one who uses it, but you know, who knows.
137
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:49.000
We'll see, all right, So Star Wars Comics, not a
138
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:53.120
lot of news, nothing new from Marvel. Marvel gave us
139
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:58.600
looks at basically the October solicits. Uh, you know, we
140
00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:01.120
got to look at some of the the variant covers
141
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:03.199
and the main covers for Book of Boba Fett three
142
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:06.160
and four, as well as The Fall of Kylo Red
143
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:11.759
number three of five dark Horse. All we got was
144
00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:18.160
an advanced preview of the High Republic Adventures Pathfinders number four,
145
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:22.360
which is dueout August nineteenth. Should be noted that dark
146
00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:25.120
Horse had no Star Wars comics and it's November solicits
147
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:30.079
last week at all, except for the already previously solicit
148
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:35.279
solicited the Bad Batch Rogue Agent's trade paperback, which is
149
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:37.560
coming out I believe the number third, and then of
150
00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:39.920
course we are going to get the Pathfinders trade paperback
151
00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:42.399
in December. But other than that, nothing, no news from
152
00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:48.120
dark Horse at all. So why well, mad K Studios
153
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:52.000
had a panel with Lucasfilm Publishing and they have got
154
00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:56.160
three titles, you know that. They revealed that the Lucasfilm
155
00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:00.720
Publishing panel, one of which is a new graphic novel
156
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:03.319
called Star Wars a new Hope triple Take, which is
157
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:06.680
you know, obviously a look at Leah and Luke and
158
00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:10.399
Han solo. And then they showed us some advanced look
159
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:15.279
from the upcoming and already previously announced Jabas Bounty and
160
00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:19.120
the Legend of Beggars Canyon middle grade graphic novels. Should
161
00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:20.800
be noted that, you know, it looks like, you know,
162
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:23.920
we will get Jackson, so that's that's always a good thing.
163
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:28.240
But then when they did their own panel with Lucasfilm,
164
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:30.800
mad Cave did say that it is going to have
165
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:33.639
a new series spending in twenty twenty seven called Star
166
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:37.720
Wars X Wing Academy. Oh fun, yeah, yeah, and it
167
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:40.679
looks like it's gonna be a lot of fun. You know,
168
00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:43.279
it's obviously it's you know, this is geared toward toward kids.
169
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:45.279
You know, I guess as you know, I guess they
170
00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:46.639
call it, you know, middle grade. We'll see.
171
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:47.440
Uh.
172
00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:50.440
We Also, they are going to do another Mandalorian grogu
173
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:52.840
one shot. This one's going to be called Nightmare on Navarro.
174
00:08:53.679 --> 00:08:56.480
Uh, and they're gonna do a Phineas and Therred Star
175
00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:00.039
Wars graphic novel crossover. Oh fine, which makes it a
176
00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:02.440
lot of sense because A I love Yeah, how can
177
00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:05.679
you not? And B you know they you know, Phineas
178
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:07.720
and verb hass you know has dot a Star Wars
179
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:09.039
crossover on TV as.
180
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:10.639
Well, right, they're great?
181
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:13.320
Oh yeah. So and that's that's literally it.
182
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.639
You know, so we have yet to we we don't
183
00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:18.559
know yet if we're going to be able to review
184
00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:23.440
prematurely any of the the the the the do books.
185
00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:25.759
From I don't because matter as a matter of fact,
186
00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:29.080
my shot didn't get any copies of The Mandalorian grows
187
00:09:29.159 --> 00:09:30.840
with Danger in the Dark one shot that came out
188
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:31.639
last week.
189
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:33.200
So even if we wanted to buy one, we couldn't.
190
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:35.600
Wow, well we could, I mean I could get it digitally,
191
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:37.159
but you know, I'd better have a hard copy.
192
00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:39.399
But and we're you know, we're still waiting to hear
193
00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:41.080
from Mad Day if we're going to be on their
194
00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:45.639
media list, which we've not yet heard obviously, you know,
195
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:50.159
I've been asking since January they were announced, and so
196
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:53.200
but then, you know, nothing really happened, and of course
197
00:09:53.480 --> 00:09:56.639
last week being SCC, I didn't really expected news, but right,
198
00:09:57.279 --> 00:10:00.559
you know, so we'll see but u because it looks
199
00:10:00.559 --> 00:10:01.879
like fun stuff, you know, especially that.
200
00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:02.600
X Ing Academy.
201
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:05.120
Yeah, that sounds like a lot of fun.
202
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:06.679
Yeah, because it's it's good.
203
00:10:06.639 --> 00:10:09.720
It's being written by Scott Peterson and Josh Preuit, art
204
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:11.600
by Craig Ifs, and so that that's gonna be that's
205
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:13.399
gonna be a blast, and it looks like that's going
206
00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:15.440
to be part of mad.
207
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:18.799
Case paper Cuts imprint. So uh, but you know, the
208
00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:19.360
best way.
209
00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:21.200
To describe that, you know is, you know, if you
210
00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:25.600
remember Scholastic book fairs, it's pretty clear we're gonna find.
211
00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:27.399
These paper Cuts books that Scholastic book fairs.
212
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:29.799
Yeah, which is not a bad thing, it's just maybe
213
00:10:29.879 --> 00:10:32.639
not what the average comic book reader is looking for.
214
00:10:32.879 --> 00:10:35.960
And you know, and the discussion on the Star Wars
215
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.480
Comics sub reddit, even on our our page on the
216
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.120
placebook has sort of focused on the fact that, you know,
217
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:45.919
we really were hoping for something from Marvel for anything,
218
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:48.720
but you know, it's still early and we got New
219
00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:50.799
York Comic Con coming up in the fall, and that's
220
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:52.480
typically you know if memory service.
221
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:55.039
That's kind of what Marvel kind of goes really.
222
00:10:57.120 --> 00:11:00.159
In the announcements, and I think this year will will
223
00:11:00.200 --> 00:11:03.600
probably have something their last hour as a new were
224
00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:06.120
sitting based company, you know, their last the last n
225
00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:08.360
y see see actually being based in New York.
226
00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:09.919
City, right because they're heading for the coast.
227
00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:15.159
So that's that's so we got.
228
00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:17.799
All right, well that is it. So we'll if anything
229
00:11:17.799 --> 00:11:19.960
happens a dream now and then come back next Wednesday
230
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:22.919
and we'll let you know what's going on. We don't
231
00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:24.120
have any books next week, right.
232
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:26.639
So the next the next book coming out is August
233
00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:28.559
twelup and that's the fault or Pylo Wilson.
234
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:29.320
But we want to fuck.
235
00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:31.320
So we'll be back then to discuss that. We'll be
236
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:33.440
back next week to discuss anything that happens between now
237
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:36.559
and then until then. For Star Wars splash page, I've been, Jeff,
238

But stop paying
1
00:00:02.480 --> 00:00:06.639
You're listening to the Star Wars Splash Page Comics in Review.
2
00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:12.839
It's episode number five hundred and thirteen. And since we
3
00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:15.240
don't have any new books, we won't have any new
4
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:19.039
books until August twelveth, We're gonna discuss the news or
5
00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:22.920
lack thereof, from San Diego Comic Con last week. How
6
00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:23.960
you doing, Jeff.
7
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:36.880
Dig me on the stage spin make I'm as park On.
8
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:54.840
I don't want since running the Gata scenes, I'm tired.
9
00:00:56.200 --> 00:00:57.960
I did not go to San Diego Comic Con, but
10
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:00.200
I felt like I did with everybody on message me
11
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:04.200
about everything, all the news they were hearing from it dad,
12
00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:06.319
and and my dog, you know, coughing all night long.
13
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:10.120
But but yeah, some some real exciting news. I tell
14
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:11.719
you that the two bits of news that I'm most
15
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:14.040
excited about have nothing to do with Star Wars comics.
16
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:16.400
No, they don't do that, because I bet I know
17
00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:17.200
what one of them is.
18
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:18.799
What one of them is? What do you think one
19
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:19.280
of them is?
20
00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:21.400
The Indiana Jones mini series?
21
00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:23.879
That is it? That is it? Yeah? That is it? Yeah,
22
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:26.400
Marvel's doing It's just a mini series at this point, right.
23
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:30.120
It's just just a five issue mini series. But you know,
24
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:32.319
having not been at the panel, but you know, having
25
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:38.359
been reading some of the breathless reportage, sounds to me
26
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:40.719
like perhaps it's not like we're gonna get don't think
27
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:42.319
we're gonna get a monthly ongoing, but I think we're
28
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:44.959
gonna they'll probably it would be it would behoove Marvel.
29
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:47.920
I think to do a series, you know, you know,
30
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:51.439
five five issue mini series. Yeah, and I think a lot.
31
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:54.519
I think a lot of it will hinge on how
32
00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:58.079
well this new one, Indiana Jones and The Sword of
33
00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:01.879
Pandemonium fair. And I think it should fare pretty well
34
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:05.359
because it's being written by Jason Aarron and with art
35
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:08.039
by Aaron Cooter, and it is pretty much set like
36
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:10.400
right after the events of Raiders of the Lost.
37
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:12.879
Arc I'm in. Yeah. And the thing is, there are
38
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:15.159
so many Indiana Jones novels out there. They have to
39
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.400
have a wealth of of event of material with which
40
00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:19.479
to pull from as well.
41
00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:22.319
Oh, there's plenty of those novels. And there's also there's
42
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.159
also a couple of unpublished comic books, you know, that
43
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:28.400
were pitched and you know, supposedly started production but didn't
44
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:30.680
didn't fly. With the close sales toward the end of
45
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:34.400
the Dark Horse run. But even then, that's that's really irrelevant.
46
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:38.199
There's just so much potential storytelling. I mean, my god,
47
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:39.879
we could get a you know, I would, I would
48
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:42.719
pay big money for a five or seven issue mini
49
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:47.680
series focusing on Indy and a young short round. You know,
50
00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:52.120
Indy and has adventures with Wu Han from exactly People
51
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:56.039
of Doom, you know, just all you know, Indie with
52
00:02:56.120 --> 00:03:00.639
Abner Ravenwood, you know, I mean this The potential I
53
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:03.319
think is is that you know, Indy even Indian Mac
54
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:04.360
during World War Two.
55
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:07.520
Yeah, there there's plenty there, you know, unlike Star Wars
56
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.000
that you know there are there are huge swaths of
57
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.680
Indiana Jones's life that we that have not been been
58
00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:15.680
thought about. So yeah, I'm excited about that.
59
00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:19.360
The other bit of news the fact that, you know,
60
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:20.840
the fact I don't really think we're gonna get any
61
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.599
more Indiana JNG movies. No, it's gonna sort of like
62
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:27.080
it's gonna it's gonna give I think Lucasfilm Publishing a
63
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:29.599
bit more of a free hand, you know, right, hav
64
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:32.360
to be extrapolated by Cannon, although you know, when you
65
00:03:32.360 --> 00:03:35.280
think about it, Star Wars doesn't really doesn't like Cannon
66
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:37.439
that there's retools that are revamp set, right.
67
00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:40.599
But yeah. The other bit of news that I was
68
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:42.560
excited about, and I think's probably you probably have this
69
00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:44.919
one pegged as well as the announcement of Ryan Gosling
70
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:47.719
as a ghostwriter in the Marvel Years coming in twenty
71
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:49.759
twenty eight, which I thought was kind of cool and
72
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.199
directed by Sean Levy who did dead Pools and Wolverine,
73
00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:54.919
And isn't he doing Starfighter as well?
74
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:55.759
He is?
75
00:03:55.919 --> 00:03:58.599
Yeah, so yeah, Ryan Gosling is his new DeNiro. I
76
00:03:58.599 --> 00:03:59.879
guess who knows.
77
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:03.560
Although I will admit and I only say this because
78
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:06.719
because I love Nicholas Cage's ghost Writer, right. I love
79
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:08.879
the first one. I even liked the second one, which was,
80
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.159
you know, universally panned and rightfully so, but it was entertaining.
81
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:14.199
But I just I just thought it was kind of
82
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:16.920
cool in this sort of little oh hey, how about that?
83
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:20.600
You know that Ryan Gosling apparently had pitched Kevin Fagy
84
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:24.160
about being ghost writer, and then of course you know
85
00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:27.759
Ama Mendez was in the first ghost Writer who.
86
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:32.480
Is married to Ryan Gosling. Yeah, yeah, So also I
87
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:34.240
would like to point out somebody pointed out that when
88
00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:36.240
Nicholas Cage played ghost Writer the first time, he was
89
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:39.519
forty one. Gosling will be forty seven when he films his.
90
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:45.879
Oh it's too old. Oh I'm kidding. Of course, he's
91
00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:47.439
not too old. It'll be fun, you know.
92
00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:48.279
You know.
93
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:51.160
I also enjoyed the fact that we're getting I guess
94
00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:53.399
you know, again not Star Wars related, but we're getting
95
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:54.399
a Black Panther three.
96
00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:58.240
Yeah, they're gonna eight and they're gonna age to Challah
97
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:00.360
the second up, and.
98
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:03.600
He's being played by the young man from the what
99
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:04.560
was the alien movie?
100
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:09.399
Oh, Alien Romulus. He was phenomenal in that film. I've
101
00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:11.360
not seen The Long Walk, but just based on that
102
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:13.920
performance alone, the guy can do anything as far as
103
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:14.519
I'm concerned.
104
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:17.800
Oh, totally, totally, yeah, yeah, but you know, I guess
105
00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:20.040
you know. This is a Star Wars comics podcast, although
106
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:21.439
I think it should be said that Jeff and I
107
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:25.560
are planning, you know, to do an Indiana Jones comics podcast.
108
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:28.519
So Matt had been planning it for decades and he
109
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:29.680
asked me to come along.
110
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:32.360
So yeah, sure I have yeah, literally, because back back
111
00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:36.680
after you know, Disney bought Marvel back when I was
112
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:39.800
still working for the AP. I. You know, I called
113
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:43.639
Axel Alonzo, who was the then editor in chief, and
114
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:45.160
you know, I said, hey, man, I heard you guys
115
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:47.480
visited the ranch and he goes, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah,
116
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.800
you know it was just it was mostly for background stuff,
117
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:52.040
nothing big. And I said, I got to ask. He goes,
118
00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:54.199
what what what are you going to ask that you're
119
00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:57.439
gonna do Indiana Jones? And he goes, I can't say
120
00:05:57.439 --> 00:05:59.000
if we are not, but let me tell you this.
121
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:02.000
It came up. I said, okay, cool. So I have
122
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:06.120
been waiting for thirteen years, so so much so that
123
00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:10.839
you know, I have the indie comics Cavalcade dot com
124
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:12.279
website that I've been paying for.
125
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:15.480
You've been supporting on it, yeah, for a decade.
126
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:18.839
I have the Indiana Jones comics at gmail dot com.
127
00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:21.120
I have, you know, the Indiana Jones comics on Blue
128
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:22.600
Skies and.
129
00:06:22.519 --> 00:06:24.519
See, and I suggest that he should have shown Oh no,
130
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:26.800
it's not the year's Honeyt's some mile log at gmail
131
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:29.000
dot com. All one word is our email address. But
132
00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:31.800
I guess you're right, Yours is probably better.
133
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:35.279
That's easier, it's more direct. So and then I even
134
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:37.959
created an Indiana Jones comics subreddit, you know, like three
135
00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:41.079
or four years ago. So I'm like, I'm like the
136
00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:43.319
only one who uses it, but you know, who knows.
137
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:49.000
We'll see, all right, So Star Wars Comics, not a
138
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:53.120
lot of news, nothing new from Marvel. Marvel gave us
139
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:58.600
looks at basically the October solicits. Uh, you know, we
140
00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:01.120
got to look at some of the the variant covers
141
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:03.199
and the main covers for Book of Boba Fett three
142
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:06.160
and four, as well as The Fall of Kylo Red
143
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:11.759
number three of five dark Horse. All we got was
144
00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:18.160
an advanced preview of the High Republic Adventures Pathfinders number four,
145
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:22.360
which is dueout August nineteenth. Should be noted that dark
146
00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:25.120
Horse had no Star Wars comics and it's November solicits
147
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:30.079
last week at all, except for the already previously solicit
148
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:35.279
solicited the Bad Batch Rogue Agent's trade paperback, which is
149
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:37.560
coming out I believe the number third, and then of
150
00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:39.920
course we are going to get the Pathfinders trade paperback
151
00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:42.399
in December. But other than that, nothing, no news from
152
00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:48.120
dark Horse at all. So why well, mad K Studios
153
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:52.000
had a panel with Lucasfilm Publishing and they have got
154
00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:56.160
three titles, you know that. They revealed that the Lucasfilm
155
00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:00.720
Publishing panel, one of which is a new graphic novel
156
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:03.319
called Star Wars a new Hope triple Take, which is
157
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:06.680
you know, obviously a look at Leah and Luke and
158
00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:10.399
Han solo. And then they showed us some advanced look
159
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:15.279
from the upcoming and already previously announced Jabas Bounty and
160
00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:19.120
the Legend of Beggars Canyon middle grade graphic novels. Should
161
00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:20.800
be noted that, you know, it looks like, you know,
162
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:23.920
we will get Jackson, so that's that's always a good thing.
163
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:28.240
But then when they did their own panel with Lucasfilm,
164
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:30.800
mad Cave did say that it is going to have
165
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:33.639
a new series spending in twenty twenty seven called Star
166
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:37.720
Wars X Wing Academy. Oh fun, yeah, yeah, and it
167
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:40.679
looks like it's gonna be a lot of fun. You know,
168
00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:43.279
it's obviously it's you know, this is geared toward toward kids.
169
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:45.279
You know, I guess as you know, I guess they
170
00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:46.639
call it, you know, middle grade. We'll see.
171
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:47.440
Uh.
172
00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:50.440
We Also, they are going to do another Mandalorian grogu
173
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:52.840
one shot. This one's going to be called Nightmare on Navarro.
174
00:08:53.679 --> 00:08:56.480
Uh, and they're gonna do a Phineas and Therred Star
175
00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:00.039
Wars graphic novel crossover. Oh fine, which makes it a
176
00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:02.440
lot of sense because A I love Yeah, how can
177
00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:05.679
you not? And B you know they you know, Phineas
178
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:07.720
and verb hass you know has dot a Star Wars
179
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:09.039
crossover on TV as.
180
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:10.639
Well, right, they're great?
181
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:13.320
Oh yeah. So and that's that's literally it.
182
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.639
You know, so we have yet to we we don't
183
00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:18.559
know yet if we're going to be able to review
184
00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:23.440
prematurely any of the the the the the do books.
185
00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:25.759
From I don't because matter as a matter of fact,
186
00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:29.080
my shot didn't get any copies of The Mandalorian grows
187
00:09:29.159 --> 00:09:30.840
with Danger in the Dark one shot that came out
188
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:31.639
last week.
189
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:33.200
So even if we wanted to buy one, we couldn't.
190
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:35.600
Wow, well we could, I mean I could get it digitally,
191
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:37.159
but you know, I'd better have a hard copy.
192
00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:39.399
But and we're you know, we're still waiting to hear
193
00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:41.080
from Mad Day if we're going to be on their
194
00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:45.639
media list, which we've not yet heard obviously, you know,
195
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:50.159
I've been asking since January they were announced, and so
196
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:53.200
but then, you know, nothing really happened, and of course
197
00:09:53.480 --> 00:09:56.639
last week being SCC, I didn't really expected news, but right,
198
00:09:57.279 --> 00:10:00.559
you know, so we'll see but u because it looks
199
00:10:00.559 --> 00:10:01.879
like fun stuff, you know, especially that.
200
00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:02.600
X Ing Academy.
201
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:05.120
Yeah, that sounds like a lot of fun.
202
00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:06.679
Yeah, because it's it's good.
203
00:10:06.639 --> 00:10:09.720
It's being written by Scott Peterson and Josh Preuit, art
204
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:11.600
by Craig Ifs, and so that that's gonna be that's
205
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:13.399
gonna be a blast, and it looks like that's going
206
00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:15.440
to be part of mad.
207
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:18.799
Case paper Cuts imprint. So uh, but you know, the
208
00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:19.360
best way.
209
00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:21.200
To describe that, you know is, you know, if you
210
00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:25.600
remember Scholastic book fairs, it's pretty clear we're gonna find.
211
00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:27.399
These paper Cuts books that Scholastic book fairs.
212
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:29.799
Yeah, which is not a bad thing, it's just maybe
213
00:10:29.879 --> 00:10:32.639
not what the average comic book reader is looking for.
214
00:10:32.879 --> 00:10:35.960
And you know, and the discussion on the Star Wars
215
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.480
Comics sub reddit, even on our our page on the
216
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.120
placebook has sort of focused on the fact that, you know,
217
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:45.919
we really were hoping for something from Marvel for anything,
218
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:48.720
but you know, it's still early and we got New
219
00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:50.799
York Comic Con coming up in the fall, and that's
220
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:52.480
typically you know if memory service.
221
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:55.039
That's kind of what Marvel kind of goes really.
222
00:10:57.120 --> 00:11:00.159
In the announcements, and I think this year will will
223
00:11:00.200 --> 00:11:03.600
probably have something their last hour as a new were
224
00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:06.120
sitting based company, you know, their last the last n
225
00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:08.360
y see see actually being based in New York.
226
00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:09.919
City, right because they're heading for the coast.
227
00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:15.159
So that's that's so we got.
228
00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:17.799
All right, well that is it. So we'll if anything
229
00:11:17.799 --> 00:11:19.960
happens a dream now and then come back next Wednesday
230
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:22.919
and we'll let you know what's going on. We don't
231
00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:24.120
have any books next week, right.
232
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:26.639
So the next the next book coming out is August
233
00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:28.559
twelup and that's the fault or Pylo Wilson.
234
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:29.320
But we want to fuck.
235
00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:31.320
So we'll be back then to discuss that. We'll be
236
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:33.440
back next week to discuss anything that happens between now
237
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:36.559
and then until then. For Star Wars splash page, I've been, Jeff,
