Dollar Bin Discoveries: The Last Session & Hellcop

Welcome back to Dollar Bin Discoveries! We had a ton of fun reading this week's selections: Jessika brought a DND-inspired series called The Last Session (ahem) to the table and Mike discovered a late 90s dark fantasy series called... wait for it... Hellcop. 

Issue 45: The Gargoyle

No, it doesn't have anything to do with the incredible 1994 animated series. Yes, we wish we'd focused on those comics instead. 

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Captain Nauticus and Animal Castle

Welcome back to Dollar Bin Discoveries! We had a ton of fun reading this week's selections: Jessika found the recent series Animal Castle and Mike discovered... a superhero created by the National Maritime Center. Strap in, everyone. 

Issue 44: The Saga of Crystar

Did you know that Marvel created a comic in the 1980s with the express purpose of licensing it into a line of action figures? Or that some of its art became a central piece of a musician's iconography? Buckle up, everyone. It's time to talk about The Saga of Crystar: Crystal Warrior. 

Dollar Bin Discoveries with Special Guest Sarah Cooke

Welcome back to Dollar Bin Discoveries, the sub-series where we talk about interesting comics we've come across while digging through dollar bins. This week, we're joined by comics writer Sarah Cooke to talk about her first comic Kickstarter and discuss Mercury Heat, Batman: Shadow of the Bat 28, and the first issue of the strange 90s series Poe!

Issue 43: Clive Barker’s Hellraiser (w/D.G. Chichester!)

What's your pleasure, sir?
Today we're talking about Clive Barker's Hellraiser, the first comic to... embrace... the iconic horror franchise. We were incredibly lucky to talk about this Epic Comics series with none other than D.G. Chichester, who Clive Barker described as the "Godfather" of Hellraiser and served as both an editor and writer on the book!

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Action Comics & Instruction for Making a Proper Offering to Forgotten Gods

Issue 42: Bats, Cats & Cadillacs

Hello, all you ghouls and goblins! We're kicking off Spooky Season (as is our godless-given right) and talking about the short-lived 1990 series Bats, Cats & Cadillacs. It might not have lasted long, but it certainly made an impression on us!

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Wild Thing and Lola XOXO

Welcome back to Dollar Bin Discoveries, the sub-series where we talk about interesting comics we've come across while digging through dollar bins. This week, we're talking about Marvel UK's WildThing (or Nikki Doyle: WildThing, it's a little unclear) and Lola XOXO.

Issue 41: The Star Trek/X-Men Crossovers

In honor of Star Trek Day 2022, we're taking a look at the Star Trek/X-Men crossovers of the 1990s. 
BUT! Because we're discussing two socially progressive properties crossing over, we've invited the amazing hosts from the SJW Comic Book Club onto our show! So sit back, relax, and make it so.
