With reactions to everything from the godfather of Marvel's own cologne line to the critically polarizing release of Man of Steel, the frightful four take a glance at such titles as the one-shot American Vampire: The Long Road to Hell, the latest bout of wartime sci-fi insanity in The Manhattan Projects, the long-awaited debut of Snyder and Capullo's Zero Year storyline in the pages of Batman, a battle of epic proportions in the latest Thor: God of Thunder, and a review from a non-Superman fan about the Man of Steel's newest title in their look at Scott Snyder and Jim Lee's Superman: Unchained.

Review: The Manhattan Projects #12

Warning: the following review contains spoilers

The best comic being put out right now is back for its twelfth installment. After the touching and refreshing character development of the previous issue, The Manhattan Projects latest issue has the same great character work with a tinge of sadness. After witnessing the great friendship between Enrico Fermi and Harry Daghilan in issue eleven, issue twelve takes that apart as the truth about Fermi’s alien origins is revealed.

Episode 70

In which The Spaniard, Scot, and Southerner start as a trio, later become a quartet, and then end as a trio. After recapping a Georgia earthquake and Sergio's (surprisingly) lack of news for the week, John gives brief thoughts on Iron Man 3 before the trio leap into the books of the week. Soon after, a stranger draws nigh and guest off-panelist, Ashley Bob, joins in the discussion. After books, the revelation of the world amazeballs, and the logistics of Superman sex, they get into the news items and answer listener questions, upon which one panelist leaves in a huff.... a huff for truth, justice, and sexy time!
