Episode 5 â?? The New Frontier

Great Scott! and VH1 are back and back into the DC Universe but Great Scott! has a shocking confession to make.

In this episode Great Scott! and VH1 talk about Darwin Cookeâ??s homage to the Silver Age and geek out about it.

Let us know what you think about the new intro music as well.

Itâ??s more fun than a barrel of monkeys but maybe not as sanitary.

Chapter 5: Personal Questions It�s time to get personal Just Pete hits Great Scott! and I with some hard hitting personal questions. Not only that but we answer the age-old question, who would win in a fight, Batman and Superman? This chapter shows why I told Great Scott! if we were to do a podcast it would be nothing like The Secret Origins of the Four Color Podcast. Hope you have enjoyed a look back at our history!

Apology

Just wanted to apologize to everyone out there for the length of time between podcast.

It is really my fault as I have been unable to find the time to have Great Scott! over to do a new show.

I would like to blame my wife but she may be reading this!

We will get a new show out this month I promise – it is on one of my favorite series Darwin Cooke’s The New Frontier.

Keep tuning in!

Chapter 4: State of the Industry, 2004. In this chapter Great Scott! and VH1 discuss the state of the comic industry and what the big two have been doing to bring in new readers and what they have been doing to drive readers away. Of course when it is Great Scott! and VH1 discussing this it can mean only one thing � Marvel vs. DC smackdown. Try to remember this was recorded in January of 2005 so we are really talking about comics in 2004. Holy Time Warp Batman!

Chapter 3: Bad Characters It's the third installment of the Origin of the Four Color Podcast. In this short bit, Great Scott! and VH1 were asked, "What goes into making a great or bad character?" and "Why are there so many bad ones?" We of course do our best to answer the unanswerable question, because let's be honest if anyone knew how to create great characters all the time they would be way rich! Enjoy!

Chapter 2: Why Comics? Just Pete asks Great Scott! and I if we have some sort of genetic disposition towards funny books. Is it nature or is it nurture that brought us into the fold?

Chapter 1: Failed Intros; the Riddle of the Sphinx Question: Flight or Invisibility?

First off, we will hit you up with some of our attempted introductions for the Four Color Podcast.  I really just tried to throw a bunch of stuff at the wall and waited to see what would stick. Great Scott! offered his input and pointed out a couple of copyright infringements before we distilled it down to what we have now. After that you will hear the first recordings that Great Scott! and I did in January of 2005 where we discuss which power we would take: flight or invisibility?  This was with our moderator from The Bored-Again Christian and Illinoise!, Just Pete. Really, after listening to this you will come to realize why the format of our show is the way it is now.  Here's a hint: I have to keep Great Scott! on topic. Enjoy and comment away.

Episode 3 - The Origins of Superman (1938-2007)

Hey People,

Great Scott! and VH1 are back for another action packed episode of the Four Color Podcast. This show already breaks the format rules that VH1 and Great Scott! set for themselves. It took some doing, but VH1 finally got Great Scott! to do an episode on the origins of Superman. Thrill to VH1 describing how Superman's creation was tied into FDR's New Deal programs and gasp as you hear Great Scott! shares his true feelings about the Man of Steel.

Stay tuned as VH1 secretly switches Great Scott!'s regular coffee with decaf and hilarity ensues. More fun than two grown men should be allowed to have in a basement.

Hey Gang,

We have a special treat for you, for your listening pleasure you can hear the first rumblings of what has become the Four Color Podcast. Listen as VH1 and Great Scott! answer hard-hitting questions about comic books.

These bits were originally recorded in January of 2005 for another podcast in the subsequent two years that followed, our good buddy Just Pete of The Bored Again Christian and Illinoise! kept bugging us to do our own podcast and we finally caved in.

Now the session as a whole is pretty long so I have broken it down into several chapters, which I will post every couple of weeks starting on April 19th.

First up, some bad intros that failed to make the cut and then VH1 and Great Scott! take on the eternal question, flight or invisiblity?

Also listen as VH1 uses the word hardcore way to often and out of context!

All this and much more in The Secret Origins of the Four Color Podcast. Starting April 19th!.

The Dark Knight Returns (1986)

Hey Gang,

Great Scott! and VH1 are back for another round of fun and excitement.
Thrill to the further adventures of this dynamic duo as they discuss Frank Miller's classic The Dark Knight Returns.

VH1 gives you all the Cold War historical background you can handle and Great Scott!, as always, hits you over the head with some great literary insight.

More fun than getting hit with Thor's Hammer!

Catch us again on April 2nd when we discuss the origins of Superman.

Watchmen (1986)

Hey Kids,

Thanks for checking out our first show, VH1 and Great Scott! are here to discuss some of comics most seminal works. We figure we'd start at the top with Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' masterpiece Watchmen.

VH1 will give you the historical and social background while Great Scott! will cover the literary themes of the work.

Don't forget to stick around for the Fan Boy Moment where we let our inner-geek out for all to see!

Thanks for checking us out and we will catch you again on March 19th!
