Cape Town Community Podcast - Ep. 012 - "Hammerpalooza”

It’s Hammer Week at Marvel! First the Red Skull acquires her new hammer in the Fear Itself opener and her villainy is ignited to the Nth degree. Then Captain America and Frank Simpson take a gaggle of hammers to knock each other silly in one seriously painful looking fight scene from the Ultimate Captain America conclusion.

The show is embedded below and is now available on iTunes for subscription. Each episode will labeled "podcast" so you can link to previous episodes here on the blog. Refer to the Show Notes after the jump as well as a direct link to download the MP3.

00:08:11 Fear Itself #1: We’re both on board for beginning of Matt Fraction’s accessible event—and Stuart Immonen hits a homerun from beginning to end!
00:15:31 Fear Itself: Homefront #1: Remember how we tell you that you don’t have to buy every event crossover? We should have heeded our own advice.
00:18:42 Ultimate Captain America #4: If you don’t wait for the hammers to hit Earth in next month’s Fear Itself… buy this book!

00:29:40 Avengers: Children’s Crusade #5: Take your time Allan Heinberg and Jim Cheung. This book has us hooked, even on a bimonthly schedule.
00:38:10 Blue Estate #1: We were left a little lost by the last page of this book, but this a good start to an over-the-top crime title.
00:43:14 Uncanny X-Men #534.1: While not spectacular there’s nothing to complain about with this 0.1 Magneto issue.
00:46:56 Nonplayer #1: Don was impressed with Nate Simpson’s ambitious effort while Jerry was left a little lost with the storytelling.
