About this episode

The episode discusses new comic book releases, a book club selection, and recent comic conventions attended by the hosts.

We have a lot to talk about this week. Get comfortable, loyal listeners! DC Comics announced last week that they are releasing a new Legion of Super-Heroes book just in time for John's birthday in September. Marvel Comics is clearing the deck for the release of the Midnight books on October 7. There's been a lot of discussion, angst, and drama around John Romita Jr's cover for Amazing Spider-Man #1000. John Byrne has a new X-Men book out this week. Heather Antos is recommending that you don't buy it. Cullen went to Washington State Comic Con over the weekend, while John and Jerry stopped in at Garage Con . Next week is our WCPE Book Club discussion on Spider-Man Blue from Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale . You still have time to read this and join in on our conversation. We have our weekly Pick 3 choices, sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics. Plus, we have a new trivia question. We would love to hear your comments on the show. Let us know what you've been reading or watching this week. Contact us on our website, Facebook, Instagram, or by email. We want to hear from you!
