Ep. 191 - Book of the Month
(1 vote, average: 5.00 out of 5)
Monday, 07 July 2008 09:21

Around Comics is back with our first Book of the Month episode. Join Chris and Tom as they welcome Sean Whelan of Raging Bullets and Matt Kramer of The Shade's Journal aboard to discuss the first 17 issues of Starman. If you were like many of us that consider the 90s as a down time for comics, you may want to reconsider and dive into Starman, one of the hidden gems of the decade. We'll be back again next week with an all new Around Comics, but in the meantime you can also check out Tom Vs. JLA at tomvsjla.libsyn.com Chris on 11 O'Clock Comics at bullpenbulletins.libsyn.com and Skottie is back with The Devil and Me at http://devilandme.com
