Today Tony is joined by the voice that launched a thousand podcasts, the Storyteller himself, Seth Singleton to talk about the stand-alone graphic novel Decelerate Blue.  The future waits for no one. In this new world, speed and efficiency are everything, and the populace zooms along in a perpetually stimulated haze. Angela thinks she's the only person in her family—maybe the only person on the planet—who sees anything wrong with this picture. But the truth is she's not alone. Angela finds herself recruited into a resistance movement where the key to rebellion is taking things slow. In their secret underground hideout, they create a life unplugged from the rapid-fire culture outside. Can they free the rest of the world before the powers that be shut down their utopian experiment? From revolutionary and award-winning playwright Adam Rapp and veteran cartoonist and animator Mike Cavallaro comes a dark, breath-taking new vision of an all-too-plausible future for America.  Listen to Seth's Blue Playlist here.   https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0rF86HL1fXcVhnf870xBxO

The Book Tour A page-turning,  Kafkaesque dark comedy in brilliant retro style, this graphic novel  watches one man try to keep it together while everything falls apart. Upon  the publication of his latest novel, G. H. Fretwell, a minor English  writer, embarks on a book tour to promote it. Nothing is going according  to plan, and his trip gradually turns into a nightmare. But now the  police want to ask him some questions about a mysterious disappearance,  and it seems that Fretwell's troubles are only just beginning... In  his first book for adults in many years, acclaimed cartoonist Andi  Watson evokes all the anxieties felt by every writer and compresses them  into a comedic gem of a book. Witty, surreal, and sharply observant, The Book Tour offers a captivating lesson in letting go. If you want to talk with Tony about comics or to suggest any future   shows, please connect with him online and send him an email at https://www.arfarina.com/.

One by One Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine One by One is the most accomplished album Foo Fighters have made, which isn't necessarily the same as the best. Picking up the clean, focused sound and attitude of There Is Nothing Left to Lose, One by One is gleaming hard rock: it may have a shiny production, but hits hard in its rhythm and its impeccably distorted guitars. Dave Grohl's songs often express (or at least suggest) tortured emotions in their lyrics, but the album doesn't hit at a gut-level; it's too polished for that. It's not a bad thing, since the band is damn good and the production is more focused than any of the Foos' previous albums. The problem is, Grohl's songwriting has slipped slightly. It's still sturdy and melodic, yet not as immediate or memorable. Nothing is as majestic as "Learn To Fly," haunting as "Everlong," gut-crunching as "Monkey Wrench," or even as boneheadedly irresistible as their contribution to the Orange County soundtrack, "The One". Instead, it all fits together and sounds good as a piece, without offering individual moments to savor. Not the worst tradeoff, of course, but it's hard not to wish that the songs stuck in your head the way they used to, even if the album is still enjoyable as a whole. Please follow the show on Twitter. If you want to email the show we can be reached at [email protected]. If it is the best album you've ever heard, it goes to Paradise City If it is really good, but not perfect, it spends time with Dr. Feelgood If it is solid, but not perfect, it goes to the Crossroads If it is mostly crap with a hidden gem or two, it goes to Skid Row If it is the worst album ever, it goes directly to Hotel California for all eternity where you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. #mandatorymusicandcd

Fringe follows the exploits of Olivia Dunham, Walter Bishop, and his son Peter as they investigate aspects of Fringe Science (reanimation, teletransportation, etc). All over the world, a series of apparent experiments collectively referred to as "the Pattern"  (e.g., a newborn baby who rapidly ages and dies within a few hours, a  bus full of passengers trapped in a strange substance like mosquitoes in amber) are occurring for reasons unknown. Olivia, Peter, and Walter are in charge of investigating these strange events to determine their source. Connected to the Pattern is a company called Massive Dynamic,  which is a leading global research company that holds patents for a  number of new and important technologies. Throughout the first half of the first season, Mitchell Loeb, a rogue FBI agent, orchestrates some of these events as part of a larger plan to break a man out of prison and kidnap Olivia.

Asterix or The Adventures of Asterix (French: Astérix or Astérix le Gaulois, IPA: [aste?iks  l? ?olwa]) is a series of French comic books written by René Goscinny  and illustrated by Albert Uderzo (Uderzo also took over the job of  writing the series after the death of  Goscinny in 1977). The series  first appeared in French in the magazine Pilote on 29 October 1959. As of 2009, 34 comic books in the series have been released. The series follows the exploits of a village of ancient Gauls as they  resist Roman occupation. They do so by means of a magic potion, brewed  by their druid, which gives the recipient superhuman strength. The  protagonist, the titular character, Asterix, along with his friend  Obelix have various adventures. The “ix” suffix of both names echoes the  name of Vercingetorix,  a historical Gaul chieftain. In many cases, the  stories have them  travel to various countries around the world, though  other books are set  in and around their village. For much of the  history of the series  (Volumes 4 through 29), settings in Gaul and  abroad alternated, with  even-numbered volumes set abroad and  odd-numbered volumes set in Gaul,  mostly in the village. The Asterix series is one of the most popular Franco-Belgian comics  in the world, with the series being translated into over 100 languages,  and it is popular in most European countries. Asterix is less well known  in the United States and Japan. The success of the series has led to the adaptation of several books  into 11 films; eight animated, and three with live actors. There have  also been a number of games based on the characters, and a theme park  near Paris, Parc Astérix,  is themed around the series. To date, 325  million copies of 34 Asterix  books have been sold worldwide, making  co-creators René Goscinny and  Albert Uderzo France’s bestselling  authors abroad You can read them online from Hoopla Digital or at the Read Asterix Comics online page.  Check out Jac’s brilliant new series Back to the Filmography.

Get Origamic!  Following in the irreverent spirit of Deadpool, The Tick, and Squirrel Girl, it’s Origamiac—the shape-shifting superhero who’s a piece of sheet! The compilation issue of this five-part “ungraphic novel” series* recounts the complete adventures of Orson “Orry” Thitchafer, from relative anonymity to reluctant celebrity. Starting with his origin story of transforming into loose-leaf paper, the action transitions to Orry’s recruitment by Dr. Seethesome’s evil enterprise known as MALefactory. When Orry discovers MALefactory’s nefarious bent, he seeks out a group of do-gooders, only to become frustrated and disillusioned by the limited scope of their goals (think apprehending jaywalkers). Returning to MALefactory in the hope of changing its mission to goodness, Orry joins an idealistic presidential campaign supported by the company—or so he thinks. Dr. Seethesome eventually spins the election toward the opposing candidate, a politician he can manipulate to bring his master plan for malevolence to life. But an unforeseen failure causes Dr. Seethesome to resort to his fail-safe, an initiative designed to wipe humanity from the planet. Will Orry save the day? And if he does, can Orry survive a final showdown with a nemesis he never saw coming? Special note: The content of this series is satirical and not for kids nor those who are easy to offend—and maybe not even for those who are hard to offend. *An ungraphic novel proceeds panel by panel like a classic comic book, except the imagery traditionally portrayed via penciling, inking, and coloring is instead expressed through words. If a picture is worth a thousand words, this story proves it (actually, per panel, just tens of words)! (less) If you want to talk with Tony about comics or to suggest any future  shows, please connect with him online and send him an email at https://www.arfarina.com/.

Review by Steve Huey from All Music: Extreme came into its own on the concept album Pornograffitti, with the  band's strongest set of songs and an intellectual theme revolving around  the struggle for genuine love and romance in a sleazy, decadent society  full of greed and corruption. The band shows a strong desire to  experiment and push the boundaries of the pop-metal format, adding a  funky horn section on "Get the Funk Out" and displaying progressive  compositional leanings throughout, and virtuoso Nuno Bettencourt puts down his guitar for the enjoyable pseudo-lounge piano ballad of  "When I First Kissed You." But of course, the album is best known for  its two acoustic-guitar-only hits, the number one ballad "More Than  Words" and the equally fine full-band rocker "Hole Hearted." Other  highlights include "Decadence Dance" and "Song for Love. Please follow the show on Twitter. If you want to email the show we can be reached at [email protected]. Let us know how you rate Physical Graffiti If it is the best album you've ever heard, it goes to Paradise City If it is really good, but not perfect, it spends time with Dr. Feelgood If it is solid, but not perfect, it goes to the Crossroads If it is mostly crap with a hidden gem or two, it goes to Skid Row If it is the worst album ever, it goes directly to Hotel California for all eternity where you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. #mandatorymusicandcd

Tony and Ria are joined by Alyson Shelton, Writer of Reburn. Click here to get a copy and see the whole team.  In the future, Catastrophic floods hit our planet which leave behind massive destruction and a woman they name, May. Super-powered and ready to fight, she joins forces with a woman who calls herself Hope. Hope longs to create a place where differences no longer exist, where all people band together to become one, The Unity. Our story picks up years later. After fighting to help establish The Unity, people aren’t certain if May is dead or alive. Hope is well-established as the “servant and leader.” What was once a glorious ideal now controls all in the pursuit of power. Prism Industries and its CEO, Grey, provide Hope with the “protocols" -- a tranquilizer drug -- as well as a young army of soldiers bred from May’s super-powered DNA and any other tech necessary to keep the majority of its citizens peaceful and uncurious. Issue #1, THE HIDEAWAY, sets off a series of events that gives the followers of the folk hero known as “Our Lady May” hope that the oppressive Unity can finally be destroyed. REBURN Issue #2, THE PLAINS, follows our heroine, MAY, as she steps forward to reclaim her life, find her daughters and begin to understand the scope of her legacy and powers. After being liberated by the Resistance, by Skye, Mercy and Forest, they take off on horseback to The Plains and into the lives of a whole new cast of allies, including the first appearance of POPPY, a character inspired by actress and filmmaker, Laura Vandervoort (THE HANDMAIDS TALE, BITTEN). Issue #3 “THE CITADEL” follows Skye in the days before his life-changing reunion with May. We learn about his relationship with Hope, meet Reverence and see what makes The Citadel tick. Have you wondered if there’s more to Mercy’s story? There is and Issue #3 will reveal a key part of her background. Issue #4 “FAMILY” digs deep in what it’s like being a part of May’s family. We learn more about the inner workings of Prism Labs and there are some truly awesome fight scenes, twists and reveals. The end of the first arc answers many of your questions while asking new ones, setting up the second arc.

Humanoids, the Los Angeles-based publisher of some of the world’s most iconic and groundbreaking science fiction and fantasy graphic novels, will publish Eisner-nominated writer/artist Ibrahim Moustafa’s graphic novel RETROACTIVE, a sci-fi tale about an agent working for the U.S. Bureau of Temporal Affairs who sets out to discover the source of several anomalies in the timeline—only to become imprisoned in an inescapable time loop. The book is being published on April 26, 2022 as part of a three-book deal between Moustafa and Humanoids, the first of which was the critically acclaimed graphic novel COUNT, which re-imagined the story of The Count of Monte Cristo. In RETROACTIVE, the discovery of time travel is unknown to the general public, but a new Cold War rages between global intelligence agencies as they attempt to alter historical events in favor of their respective futures. When new intel points the U.S. Bureau of Temporal Affairs (BTA) toward a hostile anomaly in the past, veteran field agent Tarik Abdelnasser and his new partner, Lucia Olmos, are dispatched to investigate. They discover a radical adversary wielding a new technology that could unravel everything the BTA fights to maintain. As Tarik gets closer to the truth, he finds himself trapped in a time loop where an imminent terrorist attack, and his own death, trigger the day to restart. He must keep his sanity intact and find a way to prevent the attack, escape the loop, and return to his own timeline to thwart the destruction of the BTA and everyone inside of it. "I'm so thrilled to bring another book to life with Humanoids,” said Ibrahim Moustafa. “They've given me the creative autonomy to tell the kinds of stories that I'm most passionate about, and I'm very excited to share this work that the rest of the creative team and I are so proud of. Brad Simpson (colors) and Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou (letters) are at their very best on RETROACTIVE, and I can't wait for people to see what we made together under the stewardship of Rob Levin, one of the best editors in the industry." Ibrahim Moustafa is an illustrator and comic book writer/artist from Portland, Oregon. Best known for his Eisner-nominated comics Jaeger and High Crimes as well as his work on titles such as James Bond and DC’s Mother Panic, he has been published by DC Entertainment, Marvel Comics, Image Comics, Dynamite Entertainment, Dark Horse Comics, BOOM! Studios, Valiant Entertainment, and IDW Publishing. Get RETROACTIVE HERE REVIEW ON GOODREADS

 Physical Graffiti Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine Led Zeppelin returned from a nearly two-year hiatus in 1975 with the double-album Physical Graffiti, their most sprawling and ambitious work. Where Led Zeppelin IV and Houses of the Holy integrated influences on each song, the majority of the tracks on Physical Graffiti are individual stylistic workouts. The highlights are when Zeppelin incorporate influences and stretch out into new stylistic territory, most notably on the tense, Eastern-influenced "Kashmir." "Trampled Underfoot," with John Paul Jones' galloping keyboard, is their best funk-metal workout, while "Houses of the Holy" is their best attempt at pop, and "Down by the Seaside" is the closest they've come to country. Even the heavier blues -- the 11-minute "In My Time of Dying," the tightly wound "Custard Pie," and the monstrous epic "The Rover" -- are louder and more extended and textured than their previous work. Also, all of the heavy songs are on the first record, leaving the rest of the album to explore more adventurous territory, whether it's acoustic tracks or grandiose but quiet epics like the affecting "Ten Years Gone." The second half of Physical Graffiti feels like the group is cleaning the vaults out, issuing every little scrap of music they set to tape in the past few years. That means that the album is filled with songs that aren't quite filler, but don't quite match the peaks of the album, either. Still, even these songs have their merits -- "Sick Again" is the meanest, most decadent rocker they ever recorded, and the folky acoustic rock & roll of "Boogie with Stu" and "Black Country Woman" may be tossed off, but they have a relaxed, off-hand charm that Zeppelin never matched. It takes a while to sort out all of the music on the album, but Physical Graffiti captures the whole experience of Led Zeppelin at the top of their game better than any of their other albums. If you missed our first show on Skid Row, you can listen to it here. Please follow the show on Twitter. If you want to email the show we can be reached at [email protected]. Let us know how you rate Physical Graffiti If it is the best album you've ever heard, it goes to Paradise City If it is really good, but not perfect, it spends time with Dr. Feelgood If it is solid, but not perfect, it goes to the Crossroads If it is mostly crap with a hidden gem or two, it goes to Skid Row If it is the worst album ever, it goes directly to Hotel California for all eternity where you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. #mandatorymusicandcd
