Brian B Sheehan Is Dead ,

Like finding a gem in the $1 bin!!

Cannot overstate how great this show is! If you are a longtime fan of comics or someone just discovering how awesome this hobby is, do yourself a genuine favor & follow these gents! They not only interview some of the legends of past & present, but they ask GREAT questions & establish the sort of chemistry that makes it like listening to your best buds at a con! Huge fan fellas, keep coming with the goods!!

Great guests, fun hosts

It’s always a good time on DBB! They get the comic book legends and go in-depth on the interviews. Don’t sleep on this one.

Klaus' cousin ,

Now this is a podcast I can get behind!

Very happy to have discovered this great podcast. Much like Word Balloon, these are great one on one interviews w/ industry professionsal's. So much more entertaining & interesting than a mojority of podcast's where it's just basically some fans sitting around giving their trivial two cent opinion's. This is great stuff. Please keep it going! Highly recommended for any true comic book fan.
