Dollar Bin Discoveries: Image Comics Edition

Welcome back to Dollar Bin Discoveries! Today, Mike and Jessika managed to both bring a couple of books published by Image Comics to the Table. Mike is talking about one of the company's earliest comics (Shadowhawk II #2), while Jessika has one of its most recent (Starhenge). 

Issue 53: The Stainless Steel Rat

This week, we're launching towards the stars so we can see brave new worlds and commit all sorts of cosmic crimes alongside James Bolivar diGriz, AKA "The Stainless Steel Rat." This collection of British comics from the same writer who gave us Soylent Green was a shockingly fun read. 

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Busty Babes Edition

In a weird coincidence, Jessika and Mike both picked comics featuring... um... women with huge tracts of land. Anyway, tune in if you want to hear about Redfox and Cavewoman: Castaway!

Issue 52: Sachs & Violens

This week, we're looking at Marvel's "adult" thriller from the early 1990s, Sachs & Violens. Since one of the titular characters is a photographer from New York, we brought in an expert: Casey Fatchett, New York photographer and host of The Nerdy Photographer podcast!

Dollar Bin Discoveries: 80s Cartoon Edition!

Just because they're beloved brands from the 1980s doesn't mean they're not in the dollar bins! Today we're talking about Transformers/Back to the Future and TMNT: The Armageddon Game. 

Issue 51: Spanner’s Galaxy

Pull on your pirate boots and ready your sheks, because it's time to talk about one of DC's strangest, least-known comic series from the 1980s: Spanner's Galaxy! 

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Orphan and the Five Beasts & Terminator vs Transformers

Mike and Jessika's latest discoveries show the dollar bins continue to bear fruit! This week, we're talking about Orphan and the Five Beasts from Dark Horse, as well as IDW's recent Terminator vs Transformers comic. 

Issue 50: DC’s Super Powers

We're revisiting Mike's childhood to take a long look at DC's Super Powers Collection, the action figures that inspired all sorts of tie-in products like puffy stickers, Play-Doh sets, and multiple comic book series from Jack Kirby. 

Dollar Bin Discoveries: The Heathens & St. Swithin’s Day

Welcome back to another episode of Dollar Bin Discoveries! This time, Mike and Jessika found some cool finds from legendary writers Grant Morrison and Cullen Bunn: St. Swithin's Day and The Heathens. 

Issue 49: Firestar

Another dollar bin find pays off! Jessika's discovery of the complete 1980s Firestar miniseries sent us down a rabbit hole complete with the realization that we're going to need to return to the character at some point in order to talk about another series.
