  • Too many interviews

    The podcast started out strong, but has since devolved into just an interview show. Some have been interesting, but most seem to be with B and C list background figures that a vaguely remember seeing listed in random credit boxes.

  • Fantastic Podcast

    These guys know EVERYTHING. Super informative show, but they keep it entertaining and fun. When they have an interview they ask great questions and often surprise the guest with their knowledge. Great stuff!

  • Comprehensive American comic history

    A fantastic comics podcast, very comprehensive listening to the history of creators and the publishers they work for, straight from the creators themselves. Recent enjoyable highlights include the three part episode with Tom DeFalco. A great deep dive back through the archives reveals more gems such as Tim Sale, Mark Chiarello, Mike Royer, Jim Steranko, Howard Chaykin and Trina Robbins. Highly recommended. Keep up the great work.
