About the show
Every two weeks your host Greg and his co-hosts Leon and Rahul discuss comics in all their forms; monthly issues, collected volumes, graphic novels, newspaper strips, film tie-ins, TV tie-ins, flip-books, pictures scribbled on the backs of napkins...
If it tells a story in sequence through art and text, rest assured we'll have something to say about it.
Art and logos by the talented and extremely generous Anthony Smith

Oh, hi! I didn't see you there. It's Rahul here. I wasn't available for this week's podcast, but I decided to help out with the backend. The problem is, I have no idea what the lads talked about. Twin Peaks? Invincible? TMNT? I'm as excited to find out as you are!
