Origin:Z RetCon -- the podcast for comicbook fans Origin Z: RetCon

Ian & James look at James Mangold's 2013 Summer blockbuster, 'The Wolverine' to discuss how it stacked up the hype, the numbers so far on the movie, cast/storyline/action, highs/low & how the movie fared against its origin material.

For Episode 14 of OZRCP, Ian & James talk about Pacific Rim, clean the Kaiju juice off their faces, & marvel at the mechanical wonders that are the Jaegers to find themselves asking, 'is Pacfic Rim this generation's Jurassic Park?'

For Episode 13 of the OZRCP, we discuss the movie event of the year, perhaps the movie that redefines not just the Man of Steel & his spandex, but the entire comicbook movie genre (yes, we know this is a lofty one) - Zack Snyder's 'Man Of Steel' following our respective viewings of the movie in 3D over the weekend. Ian & James look at the cast & their characters, the bevvy of Easter Eggs in the movie, the real 'money-maker' moments of the movie & what this movie meant to them as non-fans of Superman. Have they been converted? Tune in to find out!

For Episode 12 of OZRCP, Ian & James sit down to talk about the recently issued JLA #4 & the death of Catwoman in that issue, which made mainstream news around the globe. Our intrepid heros also take a look at the JLA series so far, the characters & what the implications are (if any) for the Catwoman series in the New 52, & why these storylines are making main-stream media today.

For episode 11 of the Origin:Z RetCon Podcast, Ian & James go under the Green Hood to take a season's-end look at Starling City's own Vigilante from the CW's hit TV series 'Arrow', starring Stephen Amell, David Ramsey, John Barrowman, Willa Holland, Katie Cassidy, Susanna Thompson, Colin Donnell, & Paul Blackthorne.

Ian & James return for Episode 10 of the OZRCP to discuss Iron Man 3 - what they liked, didn't like, the plot twists, the characters as well as the set-up to this now $1bn+ grossing movie, & where the Marvel Whedonverse goes from here.
