It's finally here! In celebration of the 20th Anniversary of DC's weekly event, 52, we're kicking off a new weekly Patreon video series titled Breaking Down 52! 52 started May 10th, 2006. So every week - starting today! - we’ll release a new video dissecting this pivotal series in a way no other podcast can: by using Keith Giffen’s breakdowns & pages and pages of original series art all from Pants’ personal collection! The first episode is free to watch for all with no sign ups required! And then come back each week for more by signing up for one of our Patreon tiers! We already have three months in the can & we’ll be recording month four soon so hopefully we’ll have feedback to read for these early eps.

Are you ready?
