They can still sell the trades, though?

193869 Hey folks!

In case you missed it on our other social posts, we're hoping to raise some money to help some of the causes out there in support of the protests calling for racial justice. If you donate $25 or more to a cause, send us a screenshot and we'll record a ~25 minute minisode about a topic of your choice!

All of the details can be found in the Google Doc below:

193869 Read The Infinite Loop last night. It was pretty wild trippy ride with a serious message.

Hey Kris!

Welcome to the group. I've read some of Harrow County and really enjoyed it if you're looking for more Horror!

Speaking of Ice Cream Man, we've been doing an infrequent miniseries discussing that comic on the podcast if you're interested: Vol. 1 - Vol. 2 - Vol. 3 -- Spoilers: We really love this book.

Let us know what you think!

193869 Hey folks!

On our Discord we've been running a semi-regular mini-book club with voice/video. Each meeting we discuss a book, then rotate who gets to pick our next book to read. Our next read is going to be the comiXology Original book Drops of God (technically a republish, but who's checking? ;) ). We're planning to meet next on May 9th at 2pm EST.

If anyone is interested, click the Discord Invite below to auto-join the Discord and jump into our book club room!

Hope to see you all there!

I watched ep 1 which gave me the push to go and re-read the series. I LOVED all of it. I don't know why I stopped reading it before!

Such a satisfying ending, imo.
193869 Don't forget to get your comments in before we record next week's show on Sunday (April 26)!

193869 I sat down last night and got 2.5 vols into Locke & Key. Hoping to finish that series this week. I had read Volumes 1-5 years ago, but for some reason dropped off. I snagged the whole series on comiXology for pretty cheap a short while ago, so I'm ready to get through it all!

193869 Decided to split some time between chapters of One Piece with chapters of Haikyuu!! I stopped reading this in 2018 for no reason around volume 14, and I am KICKING myself for it. This series is so good!!!

Also, read the latest chapter of Dragon Ball Super... It's good.

This past weekend, I read the final issue of Black Stars Above. Creepy. Unsettling. Very good.
