  • I can get a pod about comics from cis-het dudes until the cows come home. I come to BOC for the angle I didn't think of and the titles that weren't on my radar. Bzoncomz brings the fresh panels every time

  • One of my favorite podcasts!

    From uncanny conversations about the X-Men to tubular conversations about Ninja Turtles, the best Christmas episodes to even better Halloween episodes, this podcast has something for everyone.

    What I appreciate the most is hearing voices from people I should be hearing more from.

    The entire team is amazing : Sara, SE, Monika, and Kate.
