Episode 50! No renumbering, no relaunching, no rebirthing. Instead Shawn and Tom break out of their habit and sit with a panel of experts to discuss the state of the industry. Guests include Hagai Palevski (former Smorgasbord co-host), Aviv Leo Zippin (creator of The Adventures of Quentin Alpha) and Rakefet Barak (co-host of Legend of Fangirls). We talk publishers large and small, crossover fatigue, price hikes and reboots, bad comics, ugly comics, and even some good comics.
