Around Comics Ep. 257 - We're not afraid of Sadness

Sal returns to the panel and is joined by Chris, Tom and Patrick Brower at Challengers Comics. Lots of comics talk gets started with The Great Ten, Tony Bedard, Stumptown, Criminal: The Deluxe Edition, Superman: Secret Origin, Wondermark, Iron Man, Cinderella: From Fabletown With Love, and the awesome Blackest Night rings. What's the connection between librarians who hate The League of Extraordinary Gentleman and getting bums to buy your comics?
