It's time to celebrate milestones with bigtime superheroes! In New Titans 100 we get mullets, body hair, and a wedding! In King in Black: Black Panther, we (possibly) get a funeral! 

Thursday Mar 23, 2023

We're celebrating our second anniversary today! Hard to believe the show's come as far as it has in the last two years! We definitely wouldn't be here without the support of everyone we've met along the way, so we created a special episode that included a bunch of our friends.

We're traveling back to the Bronze Age for today's Dollar Bin Discoveries, as we're chatting with celebrated Bronze Age creator Paul Kupperberg! Not only do we talk about some wild comics from decades past, but we get to hear about what it was like working at DC comics in that era.

This week we're journeying to Earth-148611 (AKA Marvel's New Universe), taking a look at Psi-Force (AKA the teen superhero mash-up of New Mutants and Captain Planet), and talking about the comic with the man who wrote the majority of the series (AKA Fabian Nicieza). Get ready for an insider scoop on the New Universe, Marvel in the 1980s, and a lot of fun Jessika cackles!

Thursday Mar 02, 2023

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).

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. 

Thursday Feb 16, 2023

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!

Thursday Feb 09, 2023

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!

Thursday Feb 02, 2023

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.
