Super Steve isn’t fighting the Wendigo this time but we have three confused hosts (Phil, Kevin, and Andy) this time to weave a twisted web of tales about comic books and related brands.
Cancelled comments cavalcade or actually a news segment? U decide. We discuss Valiant comics through “Alien books”, Steve Ditko recognition, is Andy a total indie fraud? Love Rockets? I’ll buy Elric. (Andy has to get another reference to Black Hammer in).
