This week's guest, Shaun (aka stay_puff_1983) enters the SOU with a bang! From his earliest memories of enjoying comics with his grandfather to hosting YouTube shows dedicated to comics and other fandoms, Shaun weaves a tale of passion and love.

Black Fridays are all about value, right? Getting the most bang for your buck? Well how about this, SO fans - a DOUBLE-LENGTH, TWO-INTERVIEW episode, just in time to listen to while you’re on line at (fill in monolithic retail corporation name here), why not pass the time with two great interviews with comic book fans? Samantha joins me to discuss her newfound love of comics in the time of COVID-19, and shares the hobby she enjoyed prior to that (it’s AWESOME); then guest-host Renee interviews CleverUserNameYayorNay, the mysterious IG user who will push you down to the ground to get the last copy of that comic with Kitty Pryde on the cover. She is NOT PLAYING.

This week, we are wrapped in the arms of Orion as he regales us with his comic book origin story - you're gonna be SO jealous. Like, seriously. Y'all wish you had this origin. We talk comics, ducks, duck comics, and large stone balls. All this plus my dollar bin find of the week!

Our first themed show! Renee joins the SOU with her terrifying tale of comic book discovery - and a discussion of her love for the horror genre and Halloween! Thrill to her exploits discovering Jim Lee's X-Men, her descent into horror films and novels, and how she found renewed interest in the hobby after years away. Also, she's literally the only person I know who actually buys back issues of V. Who knew she liked lizard people so much?

Tish joins the ranks of the SOU with her origin story! A legacy comic fan, she fell in love with the medium when she stole *er...borrowed* her dad’s comic collection. Learn about her path from super-heroes to indy titles, as well has her unwavering belief that Saga WILL be finished.
