  • I tried

    I tried but you are too often offended by what you call “diversity” characters. You seem to think only certain types of people are interesting and that’s more of a you problem. Diversity = reality. Take it how you like but really look at yourself without bias and do better.

  • Great comic book podcast

    What a great comics podcast! These guys are geeks for superheroes, like me, and they’ve carried their love for the medium and genre into podcasting. I especially like the Mayo Report and the detailed and insightful discussion in those episodes.
