Customer Reviews
A great look into DC’s reboot
This show is fascinating and insightful. The idea of breaking the titles up into pods with a rotating panel of guests for each pods is a way to keep the show feeling fresh. My only complaint is that I wish I would have started listening to the show sooner.
Still trying to understand the shrek jokes
Incredibly fun for anyone with any level of comic book knowledge. Alex and his cohosts that range from comic newbie to that comic book guy from the simpsons talk about the new 52. informative without making you feel like an idiot.
The New 52 and You!
This show has been great for easy listening, with a rotating group of friends, with Alex Faciane as the constant. It’s enjoyable listening to them move through this iteration of comics, as it’s a daunting task to take up on your own. It’s refreshing hearing them be critical of these comics as well, there’s substance to the show and they do a real deep dive.
It’s all around a great discussion podcast if you enjoy comics in general, definitely something to check out. Doing great Alex, it feels natural, funny, and informative!
