Download (right-click on link)
This is the long one… with almost two hours of talking Shawn & Tom attempt to make sense of the recent rush of controversies (including the Batgirl cover, Erik Larson, poor costume design, speech, and Chris Sims’s re-surfaced history of internet bullying) before moving on to the more natural ground of upcoming comic-book movies and the June solicitations.
There’s hardely any time left for the reviews which include the first issues of Invisible Republic, Frankenstein Underground, and Giant Days, along with the now-complete run of Felipe Smith’s All New Ghost Rider.
