What makes a good comic shop. Location, customer service, selection and discounts are some of the topics we discuss with a super-sized panel. Join Chris, Sal and Tom as they welcome the creative team of Ape Entertainment's new book White Picket Fences. We also call Ron and Conor from iFanboy to see what they think.
