  2. Well, hopefully it will work better for me tomorrow. I just went there and clicked on the link to listen to the station and got nuttin. Will you put your “stuff” on the blog after the show for those of us who may not be able to listen?

  3. *Puts on Carnac the great headgear*

    Madrox ongoing, longer commitment to Hulk and wearing a monacle.

    *pulls out envelope*

    What Peter David will annouce tomorrow while talking with a funny accent.

  9. And of course, if anyone misses the live airing of the show, you can always download the mp3 file from Fanboy Radio archives for a few quarters.

  10. I’m getting some kind of RealPlayer error when I try to listen. Shame, I’ll have to check back here later to find out the announcement(s).

  11. Can someone please explain to these guys that “standardized formats” are that for a reason???

    Every other Internet radio station I’ve gone to, from Paris to Tokyo works fine on Windows Media Player.

    This one? “Unrecognized Format.”

    *sigh*

  12. Im also getting real player errors through the site. Guess I’ll have to keep checking back here later.

  13. PAD’s 2 big announcements:
    1) On Hulk through the end of the year.
    2) Abomination limited series.

    Great news, on both fronts.

  15. I’m really looking forward to the Abomination mini-series!!

    Maybe Collin could end up being, oh, I don’t know…an alternate personality for the Abomination?

    A cyborg ninja velocirapter from the future?

    A renegade from Bete Noire?

    Excellent interview! I’m having a great time listening to it!

  16. Bad news about Fallen Angel. Everyone buy 10 copies!

    Oh, and in reference to the begining of the interview: You don’t suck!

  17. Ok, it’s over. Great interview. Lot’s of humor. And even though there were plenty of disclaimers, I know people out there will twist your words about some of the subjects. I thought you were great.

  18. Fun way to kill an hour. Shame about Fallen Angel. If I had $11,800, I’d buy the four thousand extra copies myself.

    Looking forward to more Hulk, New Frontier, and whatever that new project is.

  19. He also announced he has a mystery ongoing title launching in September for Marvel.

    Anyone have any ideas what it could be?

  20. So, a rundown of what was announced for those who weren’t listening:

    1.) Peter David is on Hulk at least until the end of this year.

    2.) He’s writing a new Abomination 4-issue limited series.

    3.) No new issues of Fallen Angel have been ordered past issue 20. The book sells 11,000 copies approximately, and needs to sell at least 15,000 to be profitable. (Note from me: This is one of the top five comic series on the stands right now. People, do everything you can to save this book. If people can mobilize to save Spider-Girl, another great book, four or five times, we can mobilize to save this title.

    4.) No announcements about Madrox becoming an ongoing.

    5.) Peter will be writing a new Marvel ongoing, set in the Marvel Universe. No specification on what the new ongoing will be, but more details will be forthcoming when the artist is finalized and pages are drawn.

    Hate to hear about Fallen Angel. Everything else rocked.

  21. I don’t know how many people tend to read here … but if each of us orders an extra 2-3 copies of Fallen Angel 19 and 20, would that put it over the top? I’m certainly happy to do my share in that regard.

    Good news on the other fronts, though!

  22. My Realplayer didn’t get any problems, sad about Fallen Angel but this new project in September keeps me intrigued

  23. Sorry but I didn’t hear the first minutes, did he say something about hisDreadstar being collected?

  24. Nice interview. Just enough “geekyness” for fans, but not too much to turn off any casual listeners.

    Sad news about Fallen Angel. Maybe, hopefully, the book will find enough new readers to get a second chance. Especially when you stated that if comic stores all bought one or maybe 2 additional issues, there would be enough sales to keep the book going.

    I’m not worried about New Frontiers as much, since books have a longer shelf life than new comics. I’m still enjoying the series, and hope it stays with us as long as you have stories to tell.

    But, the biggest news really came as no surprise. Congrats on the continuing of Hulk!

    It will be interesting to see how the fan press reports the interview though.

  25. Well, poop!

    I’m here local to the broadcast station in DFW, but didn’t get in until just a few minutes ago.

    Thanks for the updates. I am excited about Pete’s continued efforts on the Hulk. Yea! Pantheon, anyone?

    An Abomination book, too. The hits just keep coming.

  26. PAD on the Hulk through this year is great! I still need to get that first issue! *sigh* I just haven’t been able to keep up with my comics as much lately. *double sigh* If I was, I’d definitly be getting Fallen Angel!! I’d get Hulk, Fallen Angel, and lots of other books. But I’ve been getting very behind. Haven’t had the money..

    As for Madrox, I heard that the mini is coming to TPB in March!! I gotta get that! I read the first issue on-line and it was pretty good!

    Also need to pick up a Fallen Angel TPB #1.

    ” Hopefully I’ll be able to get some of this stuff soon..*sigh* “

  27. Okay, it goes without saying that the Fallen Angel news is not good. I just got my hands on the trade and have become interested, it can’t go away now! Money’s a little tight right now, but I’ll see if I can get down to my local shop and skip right to the newest issue.

  29. I’m really glad PAD still has projects after Fallen Angel and Madrox. I was actually pretty worried for a while. Right now there are only three writers that are keeping me into comics, and he counts for approximately 33.3333333333333% of them.

    Everyone, be sure to pick up PAD’s Hulk Visionairies trade coming out on the 19th! I missed PAD’s run the first time through and I’m not the kind of person who goes digging for back issues, so this paperback is perfect for me… so long as Marvel keeps on putting out subsequent volumes.

  31. Iam sooooooo happy I’ve started salivateing with the prospect of what those issues will bring. It will not disappoint us Iam sure!!
    Iam really looking forward to see what PAD makes of all the stuff which happened after his departure. I think he’ll have the least trouble ironing out Paul Jenkins run, as it was the closest to PAD’s vision of the Hulk.
    Here’s to seeing the Hulk in his own book for a change- The Incredible Hulk is back! Thank GOD!

  33. An “Abomination” mini-series? Intriguing. If it’s a success, I hope Peter follows with a “Leader” mini-series, and perhaps even a “General Ross” mini-series, as a kind of trilogy exploring the Hulk’s more popular adversaries.

  34. Peter
    Is there any possibiliity of Fallen Angel being published elsewhere? I really love this series.

  35. I’m really sorry about “Fallen Angel.” While this has been one of my top five titles to look forward to each month (actually, its my favorite outside the “Superman” titles), I feel that this was the pet project closest to your heart. It seemed to me that it was a labor of love for you,IMHO. Is there ANY possibility of it being published through another independent press? Hëll, I’ll even purchase it if >ackack ack

  36. My last statement was supposed to read “I’ll even purchase it if even (ack) Marvel (ack, ack) publishes it.”

  37. I second Isaac’s comments. I don’t know how the business works, but if DC doesn’t think it’s profitable to publish, is there any way for them to sell it to some smaller outfit who would love a book that sells 11,000 copies? Claypool, for example?

  38. Well, a good new, bad news, good news kinda thing, I guess. Good news about the Hulk and the Abomination. Nice to know I’ll be able to read the Hulk for a year, at least. Bad news about Fallen Angel, though not unexpected. To be honest, this book has outlasted even my most optimistic guesses as to how long it would last, and that it’ll get to #20 is, frankly, pretty amazing. Hopefully, it will prove me wrong again, becoming DC’s version of the seemingly unkillable Spider-Girl. Finally, good news about the Myster Series. New Madrox? I hope. Dr. Strange? Might be fun. Howard the Duck? Why not? (actually, I kinda like that idea — Howard’s satiric humor needs a trenchant social critic pulling his strings). How about Avengers? Just as long as it’s not, like, Deadshot.

  40. Paul, I just thought that you started to speak Martianese*.

    *Martianese as spoken in “Mars Attacks”.

  41. Great show, PAD. I missed the first five minutes though (my computer takes for-freaking-ever to load). What did I miss?

    The Leader? Nah, I’d rather have the U-Foes 😉

  42. I’m not “kinda upset” or thinking “too bad” about Fallen Angel. I’m totally pìššëd øff. 🙁

    I want this series to continue! Somehow! Some way! I think it’s too good for DC anyway. It’s the only DC book I read right now and it seems its getting screwed over just like Supergirl (the only DC book I read back then.) Is it possible to move it over to say…. Marvel’s Icon imprint?

  43. Ongoing PAD from Marvel is great news. PAD on Hulk for the year is great news.

    I’m not dwelling on Fallen Angel because it is too sad. New ideas just don’t get the readership support that they deserve.

    Speculation on new ongoing PAD:
    Dr. Strange or Namor.

    No reason for Strange other than he doesn’t currently have an ongoing.

    Namor because there is a movie coming out, and PAD made Aquaman cool.

    Peace,
    Doug

  44. My comics pusher Matt Price at Speeding Bullet Books & Comics in Norman, OK ordered extra copies of FA #19 specifically because George Perez is doing the cover.

  45. Ðámņ, this is sad news regarding FALLEN ANGEL. I really enjoyed reading it and constantly listed it at my comic store as one of my top three books for the weeks that it was received.

    This hurts more than CAPTAIN MARVEL.

  46. >>The Leader? Nah, I’d rather have the U-Foes 😉

    I’d rather have the Pantheon, i think the U-Foes should face someday the Fantastic Four

  47. As for Peter’s new Marvel monthly, I am guessing SPIDER-MAN? Now, I would prefer that the new title would be something that we have never seen Peter write for during his time at Marvel. I would like to see him take a tired concept and revitalize it. POWER PACK, CLOAK AND DAGGER, STARLORD, for example.

  48. Perhaps someone can enlighten me…does DC own the rights to Fallen Angel? I suppose it’s too much to hope that he can take the project elsewhere…

  49. It is my understanding that Peter owns the rights to FALLEN ANGEL. Unfortunately, I bet that DC has the rights for a number of years to publish the title. This means that Peter is screwed.

    >>The Leader? Nah, I’d rather have the U-Foes 😉

    I’d rather have the Pantheon,”

    That’d be kinda cool too but when he was on FBR PAD covered why we won’t see them for a while. When people ask if they have to read his old Hulk to get his new Hulk he wants to be able to say “no” and mean it.

    ” i think the U-Foes should face someday the Fantastic Four”

    But that’s so … obvious. Then again that same obviousness causes me to think “why HASN’T Marvel done that?”

    I can’t come up with a good reason.
