2 noir books! Chip Zdarsky and Jacob Phillips rlease Newburn on Image - and it is a crime thriller full meal from start to finish. D.C. wasn't going to be the only Noir title in town so Tom King and Greg Smallwood created Human Target that has the best Lex Luther story ever to have been written.

Lots of first issues last week, we list them all! We also discuss the Image Comics news of workers attempting to unionize and how that's being handled.

Some say that the 5th Wednesday in a month is a slump, well it ain't! We got comix to hit!

Gun Honey from the crime imprint Hard Case (Stephen King likes it!). and Deathstroke Inc, Williamson is on this one and it's a D.C. adventure that probably means something.

We watched Hellraiser because we know it is going to be a show and we wanted to make sure we gave you the proper preview!

Podcast Q&A

Why did you start this show?

We wanted a reading group and a show that was welcoming and familiar to new and existing comic book fans. Sometimes this hobby can be very isolating and we wanted to open the door and give our listeners to go to share their love for comic books and hear about what's new in the community.

What do you hope listeners gain from listening to your show?

First and foremost we hope they get a laugh each episode. While we're all serious about our collections and how we organize our books we're not the type of fan who can't laugh at themselves or the silliness of comic books. Secondly we hope you get some valuable comic book recommendations! Our main goal is to highlight comics that readers would really enjoy!

Which episode should someone start with?

You can jump in at any time! Start from the beginning or with the most current episode. Each one is designed to be as inviting as the last one.

Which have been your favourite episodes so far?

While we love all our episode we'd have to say our holiday episodes are probably our favorite. We spend a lot of time on those and really explore the space creatively. We don't talk a lot about comic books on those episodes but we DO laugh a lot.

Which episode are you most proud of?

Every single one. If we're not proud of it we don't publish it.

What is your vision for your show?

To be a guiding light in the turbulent sea of NCBD.

What is your favourite other podcast that isn't yours?

Oblivion Bar Podcast. Comic Book Couples Counseling. Comic Book Keepers. Wednesday Pull List. Ten Cent Takes. None of My Friends Read Comics. The list goes on and on.

How did you come up with the name for your podcast?

That's a closely guarded club secret.

Tell us a bit about yourself

We love comic books and we want listeners to love them as much as we do.
