We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
Z is giving the ComicPop Library listeners another track from his upcoming EP. This single is entitled “For The Mad Ones” which is the title track of the EP. Z just has this vibe that I seem to identify with really easily. When I first heard him come in on this single I went straight to Hall & Oates, so that will kind of give you the style of this single and the tone of Z’s voice. So here is “For The Mad Ones” that Z is sharing with us through SoundCloud – Richard:

This Visit took place right after a winter storm and Rene was a trooper with the difficulties we had with Skype for Part 1 of the interview, Michelle said it added character to the episode.

This is just to cool! Build-A-Bear is offering for Pre-Order a pre-stuffed Pikachu that comes with a Poke Ball hoodie, Charizard, a sound card, and an exclusive Build-A-Bear Pikachu CCG card. It might not get here for the holidays, but it would be a neat present for any Pikachu/Pokemon fan. Usually if we do this we print the picture and put it in a box for them to unwrap and then when the actual item arrives we give the actual present to them at that time. This allows for the person to have something to open at Christmas time. Here’s the link to order yours:

If you missed the I Am Number Four Series by Pittacus Lore with Winter here it might be a good time to pick it up. The latest in the series United as One came out this last Summer. Harper Teen has a run down of the series in this trailer for the series from their YouTube channel:
Jimmy Kimmel gives his viewers the debut of a new Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer. If you didn’t see it last night he has provided it again on his YouTube channel to share with everyone so here it is:
One of my all time favs from Adult Swim is back, Samurai Jack! This is just a short teaser for it returning to Cartoon Network in 2016.
Transmission Party want the listeners of ComicPop Library to check out the music video to their single “Beautiful Breakdown”. Right from the start this took me back to a rock ballad from the 1970’s. It has an endearing quality to the single as well as a eerie quality to it. When you listen to the single it just draws you in so good job in achieving that. The music video style they selected fits the song perfectly. It is shot using old footage and new black and white footage is inter-sparsed throughout. Great job all the way around and here it is Transmission Party’s music video to “Beautiful Breakdown” from their YouTube channel – Richard:
By looking at the trailer Made to Kill by Adam Christopher could be a fun read. Thanks to TorForge’s YouTube channel for the following trailer:
Coming to us out of Toronto is the Jutes. They are sharing with the ComicPop listeners their music video to their single “Coming Soon”, featuring Rubber Buzzard. This single to me is a modern pop/country single. It has a nice bass beat and is very catchy with its rhythm and lyrics. Then you got this down and Jutes throws in some rap with the last verse, but it fits. So check out Jutes’ music video “Coming Soon” from their YouTube channel and then keep you eyes on your favorite digital vendor for their upcoming EP Much Love, in early 2016 – Richard:
