Welcome back, everybody! This episode kicks things off with the guys dishing out some love for their local comic shops. From Philadelphia, to Baltimore, to DC, the discussion focuses on how shops cater to their customers with different events and recommendations. Over in comic reviews, Harry talks some Bat family, Mike covers The Silver Darlings from Will Morris and Blank Slate, and Greg discusses Young Avengers and Revival. Then the focus turns towards Judge Dredd and his various incarnations. From the recently released film Dredd to the pages of 2000AD, this character has some serious history. So where should you start reading? Did the movie capture the black humor of the comic series? Listen and find out! To close things out, there’s a brief discussion of Star Wars and the recent J.J. Abrams announcement.
