  • Best comic book show

    I have been looking for a good comic book podcast for a long time now and finally found this through my LCS. The thing I love the most about this show is the cover all things related to comics in all its forms. LOVE THIS SHOW.

  • World Class Podcast

    If you're like me (and I know I am), you need a better-than-average comic book-related podcast in your feed. Well, you are in luck, because Hold 322 is not just better-than-average, it is EXTREMELY better-than-average! In fact, it may be...the World's Greatest Better-Than-Average Comic Book-related podcast.

    Seriously, this is one of my favorite podcasts. Informative and entertaining. The only criticism I can make is that sometimes the Question of the Week is a little lame....

  • I love this show so much!

    I really enjoy this show so much. I've actually started listening to it before a certain other geeky podcast (that which shall not be named) because I enjoy the cast so much. Each new podcast brightens my day. I've had the pleasure of meeting Ultimate Bob and he's a joy. I saw J.C. Carter but he ran away before I could talk with him. I look foward to meeting them all one day, at least the ones who are here locally. They have great knowledge and suggestions. I can't recommend this podcast more h... more

  • Hysterical all things nerd

    This show is so funny. Jeff, Bob and J.C. get on some riffs that have me laughing out loud on the train home. I'm only an irregular comic book reader but I really enjoy their take on comics and related tv and movies.

    Keep listening till the end, some of the best stuff comes at sign off.
