Greg and Rahul team up in Leon's absence to discuss the amazing four issue mini series from 2004!

Superman: Secret Identity is the uplifting tale of a boy called Clark Kent in our real world, discovering that he has powers similar to those of his fictional namesake.
We follow him as he tries to do right, live an honest life, make sense of it all, and maintain his secret identity to protect his loved ones! Its a brilliant "what if" tale that explores what it might be like to live with superpowers in our world and the ramifications there of!

Ace Comicals Presents the David F. Walker and Sanford Greene Power Man and Iron Fist comics!

We thought we would read and review the first collected volume of this humour-charged run titled "The Boys Are Back In Town"

This volume collects #1-5 of the current run, where our favourite, street level "Heroes For Hire" are back together!

The original hero-buddies deal with some small, unfinished business that spirals out of control in a big way!

We talk about the light-hearted, buddy genre writing and the cartoon-styling on display in this book, and why we think it's just so much fun.

So join us, listen and please subscribe.
