It’s been a few weeks, so we have tons of stuff to discuss on this episode! The full team of Ian, Brent, Kris, Donovan, Brandon, Raph and Jamal Igle join us for this one, as now that we’ve fully digested our Thanksgivings, we can open our mouths to talk once again. First, we delve into IDW’s new digital comics app, and how the industry is changing their stance on digital over time. Brent then discusses the behemoth known only as the DC Versus Marvel Omnibus, in all its glory. We also go into recent purchases in and around the holiday season, different form factors and how the new manga-sized collections are selling for DC, and we finish things up with a farewell to The Arrowverse and Superman & Lois, and a full review and overview of Max’s The Penguin.
