Issue 71: Witch for Hire

Spooky Season™ continues! This week we're talking about the *ahem* charming graphic novel, Witch For Hire! We also go on tangents about solid horror movies and fantasy comics, as well as what high school was like for us and why you couldn't pay us to go back as teens today. 

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Saturday Morning Cartoon Edition (w/David Booher!)

Let's go back. Back to a simpler time. A time when brand-name sugary cereals were required for quality sleepovers. A time... of Saturday Morning Cartoons. 
Joining us this week is amazing comics scribe David M. Booher! Not only is he a connoisseur of quality kids' comics, but he also has a new book of his own out! And he's telling us all about it!

Issue 70: Jason Goes to Hell

This week we're getting Friday, October 13th! Which is also Mike's wedding day! So we're talking about the comic adaptation of Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday and even got writer Andy Mangels to share some behind-the-scenes stories about what it was like working on that book!

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Teen Drama Edition

We're getting in touch with our inner teenagers this week for a very DRAMATIC edition of Dollar Bin Discoveries. Mike brought Avengers Arena #1 into the mix, while Jessika is coming to the table with Turtles in Time #3. That's right, it's an episode all about 2010s teen drama!

Issue 69: Six From Sirius

Who else is ready to MIND PRIME? That’s right, we’re looking at Six From Sirius, the 1980s mystical sci-fi miniseries (originally) from Marvel. This comic has everything: Robot men disguised as people, magical space elders, and even some mild nudity.

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Playful Parody Edition

We're getting strange and silly for this week's Dollar Bin Discoveries episode and looking at parody comics! Jessika read Marvel's self-satire Power Pachyderms, while Mike checked out The Adventures of Rick Raygun and Quasi-Nodoze. 

Issue 68: Baldur’s Gate

In honor of National Video Games Day and the recent PS5 release of Baldur's Gate 3, we're looking at Baldur's Gate in comics! We're primarily focusing on the original comic (which wasn't ever sold in stores) and also checking out more recent tie-ins. 

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Queer Content Edition

It's been a while since we focused on queer comics, so we're taking a look at LGBTQIA+ comics in this week's episode of Dollar Bin Discoveries! Jessika came across an issue of Strangers in Paradise #1, while Mike's discussing Quantum Teens Are Go #1. 

Dollar Bin Discoveries: Black & White Weirdness

Weirdness. The category is “Black and White Weirdness.” Indy comics from bygone publishers, these are some of the most unique comics we’ve picked up from the dollar bins: Meet Comix 1 and ThunderMace 1!
