Sidekickcast Episode #13 - Born on a Monday

It's taken a while but episode 13 is finally here with a full order of Sidekicks, joining your usual hosts Dan (Marshall Law) and Gavin (The Boneman) are the angry fanboy Mikey Mike and G-Love packing the special sauce. Recorded the same day as the Watchmen Special we finally get to delve into Preacher volume 1 courtesy of G in his ever first comic experience in our Dig This! section.
Too many comics to list for Stack Attack our bi-weekly review segment but the highlights include Jersey Gods #1, Captain Britain & MI:13 #11, Spider-Man Noir #3, Solomon Grundy #1, Back to Brooklyn #4, New Avengers #50, Gigantic #3 and many, many more.
There's a strong team assembled this week for Secrets and Lies, possibly the strongest Bones has ever had to face, will he be able to pull the wool over such knowledgable eyes?
We also get some more Final Crisis coverage from Dan who's finally caught up with the rest of us aswell as a bit of a rant fom Mikey about the rising price of comics. Don't forget to check out our regular outakes at the end of the show.
Sidekickcast Special #1 - Who Watches the Watchmen?

Who watches the Watchmen? Well we do, just like everybody else but we didn't want to bog down our regular episode with too much Watchmen speak, which gives rise to the very first Sidekickcast Special. Regular hosts Gavin (The Boneman) and Dan (Marshall Law) are joined by Mikey Mike and Triv live and direct with some guest appearances from hardcore forumites and past sidekicks.
We discuss the book and the movie in no particular order and no particular purpose, just a bunch of mates chewing the fat about a movie they all went to see. Oh and some undiscovered audio clips from Rorscach's journal.
Sidekickcast Episode #12 - Knuckles Strikes Back

The first lady of the Sidekickcast; Knuckles, makes her return to the show to school Gavin (The Boneman)and Dan (Marshall Law) on Warren Ellis' Ruins in the triumphant return of the Dig This! section. Will she prove a valuable team-mate to Dan in an Indy special Secrets and Lies, he certainly needs the help trailing as he does 5-3.
A not so packed Stack Attack this week due to the lack of comics at Gavin's Local Comic Shop, he's not a happy chappy, but managed to borrow some issues from a kind hearted wino that sit's outside of Forbidden Planet and has trained his mongrel puppy named Nigel to steal all the best issues from inside the store. This week we get Thor #600, Dark Avengers #2, X-Force #12, X-Men: Legacy #221, Uncanny X-Men #506, Bad Dog #1, Farscape #1 & 2, The Punisher #2, Captain britain & MI:13 #10, X-Infernus #3, Incognito #2 and R.E.B.E.L.S #1.
The fur flies in Knowing Me, Knowing You as Dan takes on Catman and his crew in Secret Six #1 by Gail Simone and Nicola Scott, but what did he think of Gavin's recommendation of the comic book podcast Q!PAW? Don't forget to listen right up to the end for a special tribute and our usual run of out-takes.
