EP: 148 Comic Chaos Unleashed with the Return of the Kids
It's time for another wild episode of Talkin' Comics!
In Episode 148, AJ, Annakhan, Paige Matthews, and Victoria Reimann get together for a fun-filled conversation about comic books, collecting, conventions, favorite characters, and one seriously competitive game of Comic Book This or That!
We talk about this week's comic book pulls, including Daredevil #6, Rascal Randy #2, Batgirl, and a Batman/Poison Ivy cover. We also dive into some major reads, including The Mighty Thor, the Walt Simonson Thor run, Immortal Thor, and Sailor Moon.
Then things get personal with Question Time! Everyone reveals their favorite comic books, favorite characters, most overrated characters, dream comic-book roommates, favorite villains, best costumes, and the comics they'd recommend to someone who says they don't like comics.
And then it's time for THIS OR THAT!
Marvel or DC?
Single issues or trade paperbacks?
Variant covers or main covers?
Superhero comics or indie comics?
Comic shop or comic convention?
Reading or collecting?
Writer or artist?
Physical or digital comics?
Old-school or modern comics?
Funny or serious comics?
First appearance or latest appearance?
Plus, we talk about the recent CCS show, comic collecting, Harley Quinn, Thor, The Chronicles of Panel Pete, and plenty of family chaos along the way!
Who wins the Talkin' Comics This or That challenge?
Watch to find out!
