Thanks Shagg for that link. I must be getting old in my young age, I cant believe that I missed that post about the Power Co. and the great Tom Grummet! That series came out when I was studying for my degree, and so I didnt have a whole lot of cash to spare… Also im not the biggest Buisek fan!

Luke, your right on both accounts! MAybe we should petition Dan Jurgens to bring Kenny Braverman over to the Firestorm books… Im sure Shagg will love that :-p

Keith, I think in an early issue of Blackest Night, when we see the remains of the various villains stored on the JLA Satellite, one of the coffins is labelled “Kenny Braverman.” I remember wondering what good a Black Lantern Kenny Braverman would be, unless he somehow had a zombie version of his armor as well.

And isn’t there a character strongly implied to be Kenny Braverman in Johns’ Superman Secret Origin series? At least I thought there was…

Thanks for all the feedback! We’ll be sure to read as much as we can on the next episode!

Lee – The hand coming out of the ground in issue #1 was supposed to be Dr. Loren Fortier (the woman who was becoming Killer Frost when we last saw her). Check out this link for more details:

Did someone say Tom Grummett? You made me pause. He’s one of my all time favorite artists. Seeing Grummett draw Firestorm in POWER COMPANY was a pure joy.

Thanks again, you Match-heads and Water-logs!

Luke… Kenny was in Blackest Knight??? I thought Geoff Johns had wiped him out of existence with his magic writin pen!!! Now I must dive back into Blackest Night, and find him!…

Maybe Ronnie has a Kenny Braverman of his own, or the New 52 Kenny goes to Ronnie and Jason’s school (and still hates Clark Kent somehow).

Im stoked that Jurgens is on Firestorm, but how KOOL would it be if Tom Grummet were to come on board as artist!?! (Kenny Braverman has me reminiscing of my favourite DC penciller ever, next to Jose Luis Garcia Lopez).

I’d pay $3 to read a Firestorm/Conduit throwdown. And I am not being sarcastic. In Blackest Night, I was so excited when Kenny Braverman’s remains were shown in the JLA satellite but I don’t think we ever got Black Lantern Conduit, did we?

Now that I got that out the way… Dan Jurgens on Firestorm… Shagg you do realise that their is a possibility that Conduit aka Kenny Braverman may turn up to exact some revenge!…

Im a big fan of Dan Jurgens, have been for years… BUT I seriously will miss Yildary’s art. Im not dogging Jurgens art I honestly love it, but I feel this book needs a “younger” approach! Like Kenneth Rocafort, Patrick Gleason, Steve Mcniven, Eddy Barrows, YILDARY CINAR etc… And when I say younger I dont mean in age but rather in art styles!

Jurgens is really great with his character moments, so im really looking forward to that!

Regarding Alan Moore’s Swamp Thing: I just read Watchmen in 2009. I just read COIE earlier this year. I just read Dark Knight earlier this year. And I have never read Swamp Thing. So there. Oy!

I would love to see a New 52 version of Rodan! Especially since IDW has the Godzilla license.

“Boom! All of a sudden you had Conan!” Sorry Rob but that just cracked me up. Like a magical spell which summons Conan or something.

I had heard of “Call Me Maybe” but not actually listened to it before this episode. I went to Wikipedia and listened to a sample. Uhh, yeah, I’m with you on this one Shag, this is pure garbage and I was happier not knowing what this nonsense was.

Really enjoyed the show guys! Keep up the good work!

(Can you tell that I haven’t read the issues yet and am really just vamping here?)
