    Pick of the Week #1010 - Assorted Crisis Events #8

    It's the second show in a row that almost didn't happen. Following the bout of flu, Josh Flanagan doubles down, and hobbles in broken, but not defeated. However, we were blessed with a damn fine group of comics, and a couple that were not so much. Anyway, watch out for that step. It's a doozy.
