Episode 80

In which the Off-Panelists get dark, like really dark. The Spaniard has a brush with death, while the Southerner and the Skirt have lazy holiday weekends. After discussing southern hijinks and PC terms for little people, the trio get into the week's news items and books, from Ten Grand and Fairest, to Green Hornet and The Owl. After that, they debate the merits of cannibalism, sexual assault, and human sacrifice. A normal show all around.

Episode 76

In which The Off-Panelmen have no souls and betray the ones they love, as week two of the new format takes full effect - and they manage to go over time anyway! Join the Sloth, the Spaniard, the Skirt, and the Southerner as they mull over eachother's weeks before launching into full fappitude over the concept of Porno Jim Gordon, give into digital desires, express indifference towards the latest attempt to bring a popular comic to the big screen, compare and contrast between the Marvel and DC marketshare, and get evil by way of ridiculous numbering.

Following that, the four give reviews for such titles as the highly-anticipated relaunch of Astro City, the latest and handsomest installment of Fairest, the mysterious yet satisfying East of West, the time-hopping Miss Fury, and more!

Episode 71

In which The Off-Panelists experience pain of a whole new measure as two of the three in attendence tell tales of woe, from the sleep-deprived to a vicious pain that oddly makes for a more interesting tale than usual. Using the podcast to recover, join The Sloth, the Scotsman, and the Spaniard as they go about recounting the aquatic tales of this month's Aquaman, wrap their heads around an unexpected return in Fairest, discover more about how a Marvel baddie got the 'mad' in 'mad titan' in Thanos Rising, mull over The Movement, and give Swamp Thing and Animal Man status updates. Following a brief one-man bout of the Lightning Round, they also discover what it takes to get on DC's bad side, an itty-bitty new book from the Tiny Titans creative team, the end of X-Factor, and the most important question ever asked by listeners... why the *hell* should anyone care about Aquaman?

Episode 67

In which The Off-Panelists find themselves battling seven evil exes while still attempting to review comics, as they shun the theatrically inept among them and talk about just how little came out this week. Join the Sloth, the Scotsman, and the Spaniard as they sit down and discover that the grass is greener on the other side of this week's Fairest, the rotting remains of Swamp Thing might yet still have some life, God in the form of a Scottish terrier in Phantom Stranger, once again lament the loss of facial hair in Green Arrow, and discover that Thanos Rising establishes a peculiar recurrence in The Mad Titan's origins. Plus, listen to the trio of terribleness give their thoughts on the best moments of the Silver-Age Flash in a salute to his recently passed creator, The Scarlet Speedster's upcoming starring role in a DC Animated Movie, fears and doubts over an Elseworld character's introduction into the DCU, and a brief tangent into perceived sexuality with female characters. Sergio Martinez is... Ramona Flowers.

Episode 44

In which The Off-Panelists highlight one member of the cast's affinity for a certain appendage, as two talking heads and the guy that never does anything go about mending fences in lieu of a week old conflict. Afterwards, they embark on the weekly book discussion, highlighting everything from the new and improved Detective Comics to the continuing adventures of Earth's newest Green Lantern, and unfortunately, the book that everyone's going to be talking about: the conclusion of Marvel's latest event. Listen in and pick your poison for that one, it'll be a long one. Plus, news of sorts! A very special OPP-related guest is attending the 2012 New York Comic Con. Will it be worth it to find out who? Eh, maybe.

Episode 32

In which The Off-Panelists of the week confuse a p-word with a c-word, as the three in attendance celebrate a truly landmark achievement in one of the crew's professional and personal lives. That's right, the crew celebrate Matt's birthday. Oh, and some other thing happened, too. After giving the due congratulations and giving one a de-promotion, the trio of terror talk up the release of The Amazing Spider-Man and give their reviews, with spoilers included, before finally moving onto the week's comics and an extremely prompt story segment. We repeat - there are spoilers -so if you haven't seen the film, don't listen to this episode until after you have. You've been warned courtesy of SICBA Award Winner John Lees.

Episode 21

In which the token female of the crew takes over hosting duties this week, where things quickly get wildly out of hand. True, you'd almost expect it from her at this point, but when the conversation delves into such topics as the horrors of bare feet, an erotic striptease version of The Standard, the ever-classic bagged and boarded debate, slash fiction between two of DC's most inherently disturbing heroes, and the future assassination of Adam Glass at the hands of one of the podcast's own, you start to wonder what you're actually listening to. Luckily, there's the lack of anything at the Eisner Awards to help ground out the day, followed by the greatest fan question ever. Stay tuned to hear the definition of ABBO.
