A Pal-erful Look At The World Of Comics!

This week, the gang gets together to experiment with AI (and make fun of it), before diving into the usual comic book reviews. With their trademark humor and insight, we dissect last week's releases, offering up our latest opinions on everything from the latest superhero epic to the newest indie darling. Along the way, we also call up Will, who is sure to provide some entertaining banter and maybe even a surprise or two! Whether you're a die-hard fan of the comic book medium or just looking for some lively conversation, this episode is a great place to jump in and deliver the laughs and enjoyment you crave.

New Year Same Buddies

We're back at it again! Hopping into the new year fresh and rejuvenated, but with a smaller week of comic books than normal. Due to the small week, we've got a small group of just Jeff and Django - so prepare for some good friends poking fun at each other, while also discussing the books that actually came in last week (while shaking our collective fists at Marvel). Jump in and see what's in store!

2 Comic Buddies and a Bit

Django has returned, but it happened so abruptly that he scared Roman and Colette away for the week. That means we've got a solid two-man group - we may be few, and we may be blue, but at least we're true! Also, Jeff is real excited to talk with Django again, so it's a little longer of an episode!

Wallowing in our Will-less-ness

With a lack of Will-power to get us started this week, Jeff and Django try to fill in with their own questions. It goes about as well as you'd expect! But hey - don't stop listening after that! We have a full super-expanded slate of this week's comics coming at you from the wonderful Colette, Roman, Jeff, and Django. Cuddle close and clasp a cold cup of comfort, friends!

A Djourney Into Roman's Mysteries

Well, we've made it folks. This week is a terrifying excursion deep into the psyche of one Roman Stadtler. It took a while to get here, but I tell you, it was completely worth the wait. Fermenting through the holiday last week, Roman has twice as much inside of him to share. So why don't you join us?
