Jimmy is heading off to San Diego Comic Con and records a little pre-SDCC episode loaded with reviews! He talks about planned interviews, press rooms and more. He also mentions how he feels that Hollywood's interest in Comic Con seems to be waning. And for some reason, so many TV series started up or ended so Jimmy decided to review them all! Most of them solo but he does recruit his 2 regular reviewers Melissa (on double duty again) and Marta to lend a voice. Let us know your thoughts.

Jimmy is off to the IU concert and is super excited about it! So that means a quick little episode for you. Though he does try to stretch time at the end. He does 3 comic reviews on his own w/o any help from reviewer pals. He briefly chats about his upcoming plans for San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) next week. Said plans are still coming together so there is nothing set yet. Next week's episode should have a clearer idea of what he'll be covering. Did you read any of the things we covered?

Leaving a 5 star review
Nothing but LOVE!
Sweet X-mas! Great podcast, Guys!
I'm going to review my own show as if I'm just a listener from back in the beginning. Here goes:
"I've been listening to this one for awhile and it's good to see that they are getting things going again. Joe and Jimmy seem to have many a connection with A LOT of comic book pros resulting in great interviews w/ some comic book legends and up and comers! Always informative and often very funny. Keep it up, guys!"
Wow! I've convinced myself. I'm going to listen every week! :)
And for those whom dont like the sound quality...sorry kids! Really. But hey, it's free and I do it because I love it. If someone wants to provide professional equipment/editing/etc...please do and we'll be as awesome as those other podcasts!
I love CNI!
Jimmy is a truly amazing pop-culture journalist. Always entertaining, fun, and a blast to listen to. I never go out of my way to rate podcasts, but this is a truly exceptional show. If you dig comics, movies, and geeky TV, you will love CNI.
