Since we all have Star Wars on the mind anyway, we decided to do a series of comics set in that old, far away galaxy. First up is “Knights of the Old Republic,” the story of an unlikely jedi hero and his unusual connection with the force. Plus, a rowdy discussion of what sets Extended Universe Canon apart from FanFic riff raff. For more information on past and upcoming episodes, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com.

For the first show of the new year, we’re reading Stan Sakai’s “Usagi Yojimbo.” This little black and white rabbit has nigh defined the samurai comics genre for the past three decades. We try to unfurl the cute fuzzy exterior and find the raw guts of what’s going on in this classic. For more information on past or future episodes, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com!

For our last episode of 2011, we finish up DC Comics’ epic “52.” We fawn over the Elongated Man and pick out which writers were responsible for which storylines. We also delve into the whole concept of comics publishers’ universe construction and other metaphysical problems. And yes, we finally get around to rating it.
