Can’t wait for more episodes
These guys are great.
Great podcast
I love this show. It's such a nice, deep dive focus on a single book by two people with great insight and a love for the medium. It's exactly what I want in a podcast and each episode adds a new book to my 'to buy' list
Dig it!
Great show. These guys had great insight on the creators, dove deep on the books, and had some good commentary on the comics industry. I’ll be back for more!
