  <description>&lt;p&gt;In this episode, &lt;strong&gt;Greg&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Leon&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Rahul&lt;/strong&gt; discuss: &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Their favourite 2017 comics: those that spoke to them, and those that deserved special mention.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Buried treasure from years gone by that they first read in 2017.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The books that have them excited for 2018!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also a brief talk about comics-adjacent videogames, questions about comics and comics themed gifts that were exchanged over Christmas, and the books that they've always intended to read but have never gotten around to! &lt;/p&gt;
