That's Not My Batman

Django and Jeff decide to take us in a slightly new direction this week, opening up with a new segment before diving into our typical Willful Wonderings... and of course, last week's comic books! We check in on some on-going books, argue a bit about Hickman, and scout out some new #1s. Come one, come all, to this comic book hall!
