I'm very sorry about the audio problems with the recent Hilary Barta episode starting around the 41min mark. Thank you so much to all of our listeners who bear with us throughout sonar pings, mysterious echos and loud bursts. Every download is deeply appreciated and I welcome input from all of you. 

And thank you for all the assistance and advice from fellow podcasters. I don't know what I'd ever do without the commiseration of the Earth 2 podcast, Mostly Mellow, 11 O'Clock, Scotch and Comics and the inimitable John WordBalloon and Aw Yeah. Comic podcasting has been a warm and friendly community I'm grateful to be a part of. 

It seems from the Aw Yeah and Caramagna episodes I have my Skype tweaks mostly worked out, but I will reoutfit my mic and mixing setup very soon. And I'll reedit our fun chat with Hilary Barta within the week. 

Thank you and may you all have happy holidays and a wonderful new year! I hope you all get that blow up Power Girl doll you wanted!

In this week's ep all the girls are together with Josh Emmons, Sean Dove and Mike Norton of "4 Star Studios"! They talk about digital comics and developing apps...and were 80s cartoons nearly as good as we remember them?

In the most recent episode of Comics Slumber Party (up this afternoon! 12/13 I promise!) we talk to 3/4 of Four Star Studios and naturally the topic turned to the many characters of Masters of the Universe. So naturally I want to hear from our listeners- who do you think is the lamest inhabitant of Eternia? 

It would be easy to go with Orko, right? Or Skeletor because he has that girly voice? How many crazy prosthetic limbs could they throw on guys? Remember Clawful? Was Fisto made by Mattel or a sex toy company?

By the power of Greyskull, chime on in. We love hearing from our listeners or even just 80s toy fanatics! 

If you've read any Marvel titles from the past 10 years you are probably well acquainted with the prolific lettering styles of Joe Caramagna. He talks with Wendi about preordering, obsessing over sales figures, what goes on in the Starbucks bathroom and Dark Pet Avengers!

In this bonus Slumber Party, Wendi hangs out with John Siuntres (Word Balloon) and Art Baltazar and Franco Aureliani from "Tiny Titans" and the "Aw Yeah!" podcast! They talk Kirby legal drama, event fatigue syndrome and bizarre plastic surgeries!

Tonight the girls discuss all things spooky with Jill Thompson (Scary Godmother, Beasts of Burden, Sandman, Invisibles)! She shares her love of cooking and professional wrestling and proves why she is the Martha Stewart of comics. 

The girls celebrate a whole new universe with DC/IDW cover artist, Jenny Frison! She discusses being one of the women on the new 52, why she's always drawing vampires and Jesus' surfing skills. Now with excellent sound quality!

In which the ladies wrap up their con weekend and dish on Captain America and movie Spidermen. Fully audible!

In which the ladies get an eyeful of Jason Todd and eat a number of movie tie ins. Now audible from beginning to end!

The night before the "Rapture" the girls brought the party over to Raf Nieves and Dan Dougherty at Evil Squirrel Comics. They discuss their books, "Bob Howard: Plumber of the Unknown" and "Apocalypse Plan" and weigh in on humor in comics.
