House to Astonish

It's Paul and Al's last episode before their big live show (which, in case you've missed their many, many reminders about it, is on May 31 at the City Cafe in Edinburgh, with tickets on sale now for £12 and granting you entry to the live podcast, a buffet and the House to Astonish Comics Quiz, where there are bags of prizes to be won). They're talking about Superior Spider-Man issues 32 and 33, Steven T Seagle and Mark Dos Santos's Imperial, the new movie Batman costume, the trailers for Constantine and The Flash and the general state of the comics TV union for 2014/2015, and reviewing Original Sin, Justice League United and United States of Murder, Inc. The Official Handbook of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe can't dance, The Official Handbook of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe can't talk, only thing about it is the way it walks.
