100 | Sandman Vol. 1

This is it!  We made it to 100 episodes!  And to celebrate, we take a pretty deep dive into one of the most critically-acclaimed comics ever written, The Sandman by Neil Gaiman, Sam Keith, and Mike Dringenberg!  We cover Volume 1, issues 1-8, plus I talk about Green Lantern #154 from 1982!  Come celebrate 100 mediocre to pretty okay episodes about funny books!

99 | The Authority...of Burps...Vol. 1

If you love four friends burpin', opening nerdy presents, & talkin' comics, this episode is for you. We cover the titanically influential The Authority Vol. 1, originally from Wildstorm Comics, now from DC Comics, written by Warren Ellis, pencils by Bryan Hitch & inks by Paul Neary. We also open our presents we got for each other on air, & we talk about the other books we enjoyed this week. They were- The new Dr. Strange series by Jason Aaron & Chris Bachalo, The 'Nam #s 1, 3, & 4 by Doug Murray & Michael Golden, Excalibur #42 by Alan Davis, & Totally Awesome Hulk #1 by Greg Pak & Frank Cho. This episode was a bit more laid back, especially in the "burping on-air" aspects, if you're not into that other episodes are more structured. Thanks for listening!
