Comic Timing Episode 212 – Reading Some Balzac

Ian reconvenes the Comic Timing crew, this time consisting of Brent, Kris, Donovan and Brandon, to catch up on the last few months of comics, while also discussing some more recent goings-on. This includes the shocking death Marvel decided to reveal two weeks ahead of schedule in Amazing Spider-Man #26 (spoilers abound from 5:58-46:17), the discourse behind Frank Miller’s most recent  variant covers for Wolverine and other Marvel titles, our collective thoughts on James Gunn’s slate of DC movies and Shazam: Fury of the Gods (also spoilers from 1:31:31-1:47:27), Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (slight spoilers as we start at about 1:47:28), and a very in-depth and spoilery convo about Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 (1:57:06-2:48:30). Then some recent reads to wrap us up! Also the title of this episode will make more sense once you listen, we swear.
