Continanity: Rebooted

Comics don't really need a reboot, they need commercials.

I have to ask, what's up with the accent?

Edit: I now know what's up. Everyone can now move on.

How is his voice changing from the usual voice to another... different American accent. I can't name it.

It's his natural accent. He usually tends to tone it down for these things, but aye, I was thinking the same thing >.>

Yeah I was thinking that, it seems much more pronounced then usual.

Really good episode, even more since one of my friends who watches comic based cartoons and movies and yet refuses to read the comics due to "continuity confusion." Then I explained you can just go out and get "Blackest Night" etc. as, pretty much, self contained stories.

I had to go back and watch some of an old episode to see if it was always there, it's not.

So one accent is fake, which one?

But the crazy thing is, once i noticed, i couldn't unotice and the rest of the episode went right over my head.... need to rewatch

Queens(ish) accent. It's probably something, Bob expects us to figure out or otherwise just know. Yet, here we are...

Bob's from Boston, so he has a Boston accent. You usually don't hear it because he rehearses what he has to say to make sure it doesn't show, but sometimes, when he's really angry or frustrated with something, it starts slipping.

See his Oscar Nominations/The Dark Knight rant for 2009 to see what I mean.

He sounds like a post-game commentator for the Yankees.

Wondered when he was going to start talking about the 52. Good episode.

BTW, for those of you are are interesting in DC comics a bunch of stuff is being release TOMORROW including Batgirl, Animal Man, Swamp Thing, Stormwatch and Grant Morrison's new Golden Age, champion of the oppressed take on Superman in Action Comics (among other things). Justice League came out last week and the best of the new #1s are going to be released over the next 3 weeks. And like said the whole thing is being release digitally, via Comixology.com mainly I think.

Moviebob said people always ask if they want to get into comics where do they start? Well folks, you start NOW!

I was planning to stop reading DC comics after I finish Brightest Day because of this reboot. Sorry DC comics executives.

Great episode/Boston accent Bob!

damn bob, really letting that bostonian accent out this week huh?

EDIT; for nay and all wondering in his very first video back in the escapist present archive, he talks says his boston accent really comes out when he's mad or emotional about something. It's a boston accent, thats where he lives, thats what it is.

CAPTCHA;

The voice changed threw me off abit.

But anyways, I never read comic books, but maybe ill give the reboot here a shot.

Oh, and the combination of Powergirls rack and the Simpson's comicbook guy smile caused me to fall over LMAO.
