After a week off Shawn and Tom are back at comics-talk game, starting with the huge news backlog — including the possibility of Spider-Man hopping to the Marvel Cinematic universe (and why it’s a bad idea), the end of Hickman’s run on The Avengers (and who should come next), IDW acquiring Top Shelf (and the expected response from Alan Moore), and a long look at the recent Image Expo.
On the reviews side, we go over the first issues of long-awaited All-New Miracleman Annual, the even longer-awaited (by us at least) Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, and Lady Killer. Our book choice for this episode is the collection of Faith Erin Hicks’s The Adventures of Superhero Girl.
