You guys are shaping up to be my Go-To comics cast. This ep is a great example. Every time I had a thought “SHIELD #1 is like Planetary!” or “What, a whole population of mind-reading shapeshifting supermen on the planet next door? That couldn’t possibly go wrong!” you guys were right on top of it. To be perfectly honest, I don’t read any of the same books as you guys (I picked up SHIELD #1 because the Da Vinci stuff and the art looked cool- I will probably wait for the trade (and your guys’ recommendation)). But it’s nice to have a finger on the pulse of the mainstream universes without having to actually read any of them, and that’s where you come in.
I used to listen to Fistful of Comics, and I forget why I stopped, but you guys have pretty much filled my “podcasts about comics” niche, so congrats. Unless someone starts a cast that actually covers what I read, which would probably require me to clone myself, since my tastes are eclectic and bizarre.
Anyway, I guess my point is, good work, and keep ‘em comin’.
And, y’know, maybe start reading Invincible, so we have at least one book in common.
