It all started with a seemingly very simple question.
What would you (or we) do if suddenly confronted by __insert comic book character here__?
Coming out of asking that question is what I am, for the moment, referring to as Apparently Awesome. This will be a video podcast (done by way of Google+’s Hangouts) featuring myself and some friends, one of which is the writer of the Ridiculously Awesome blog. He knows more about comics than I probably ever will and it will be fantastic to watch and listen to him run circles around me while we talk about what exactly our lives would be like if someone like Plastic Man was spotted at the local grocers picking up some fruit or something.
Preliminary scheduling has the first episode being done the evening of June 3rd, where we will wax poetic about all things Bruce Banner and his gamma-infused alter-ego the Incredible Hulk. Expect me to be made to look like a fool for not really understanding why I should be ashamed with myself for not giving Al Milgrom’s* run proper respect and lots of references to the TV Tropes website as I try to not become buried by my own co-hosts. I would mention that this thing will actually involve three people, but I am not sure if the other fellow has anything for me to mindlessly promote and I am not one to just throw names around willy-nilly unless they specifically tell me to do so**.
Hopefully we can pull this off and I will update this post (or create a new one) with a link to the lovely Youtube video that Google+ thankfully creates if you so chose to record your Hangout sessions.
Until then, class dismissed.
*Thanks, Wikipedia!
**Al Milgrom did not ask me to mention him.
