On IRCB this week, Paul and Nick chat with Mike about the depiction of War in comics, a brief history on the topic, and some of the comics they believe depict was in a real, non-celebratory way. Mike also has a minor breakdown in the first half of the show regarding Age of X-Men.

Comments closedThis week’s episode was recorded on September 25th, 2016. Our show this week is longer than usual, but it’s definitely incredible. Nick and Paul join Mike to talk a whole bunch about comics and what they read recently. However, the main, and very long, topic for this week is all about the legacy of Jack Kirby. And if you have a moment, please take the I Read Comic Books Listener survey!

Comments closedThis week’s episode was recorded on December 13th, 2015. This week, Mike, Nick, and Paul chat about what they read last week (which was purposefully limited this time!) as well as their comic picks for the week (Ivar, Timewalker #12, Judge Dredd #1, and Invincible #126). The focus of this week’s episode was on each of the hosts “Great White Whale” of comics. And the metaphor doesn’t stop there (Harry Potter? Actually discussing Moby Dick?).
