Its another Wednesday and another show. This time, we take a break from the games and look at a movie, a new title from DC and we follow up on our conversation a few weeks ago about Dollhouse to see how its progressed after a few episodes.

This week we look at:

• the Punisher Warzone DVD
• a follow up on Dollhouse
• Flash Rebirth # 1

As always leave any feedback in the comments section or drop us an email at podcast at verbal brew dot com.
