What happens when a comic-loving dad and daughter hit the road for a comic convention? A LOT of comics! Welcome to Talkin' Comics Episode 142! After a crazy road trip that took us to Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and Terrificon, we're back with a massive comic haul, creator encounters, signed comics, collectibles, new books and plenty of comic-book conversation. One of the biggest highlights was getting to meet Walt Simonson and having him sign the massive Mighty Thor omnibus! We also met Stephanie Phillips, talked with other creators, got to meet in person for the first time and hang out with Mike from Dork Arts Comics, and picked up some amazing comics and convention exclusives. Annakhan also has some great convention finds of her own, including Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Uncle Scrooge, Kingdom Hearts, and more. Then we jump into our weekly comic pulls, mail time, blind bags, and our featured GRIM segment! We talk about Grim by Stephanie Phillips, answer GRIM trivia questions, and play a special GRIM This or That game. Plus, AJ celebrates a pretty big personal milestone in his journey of learning to draw: selling his first piece of artwork! If you're a fan of comic books, indie comics, comic conventions, Marvel, DC, Thor, Stephanie Phillips, GRIM, Walt Simonson, comic collecting, or just love talking comics with your family, this episode is for you!
