No dilly-dallying on the Comic Cast this week as we jump right into the deep end to review HO! The Morally Questionable Cartoons of Ivan Brunetti, Ed Brubaker and Matt Fraction’s Immortal Fist, Geoff Johns & Scott Kolins’ Final Crisis: Rogues’ Revenge, Mark Millar’s Ultimate Comics Avengers and Fantagraphics new release Sam’s Strip: The Comic about Comics by Mort Walker & Gerry Dumas. We also speak to Mindpuss creator Ronan Kennedy about the future of his comics and band Hoovers & Sledgehammers as he prepares to depart to Australia. We review Hayao Miyazaki‘s latest film Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea as well as spilling the beans on a whole host of upcoming events including the Irish 24 Hour Comics Day. Enjoy!
