Recorded LIVE on Saturday, October 26th, 2013 during Comic Book City Con in Greensboro, NC!

Join Gregg Schigiel as he invites comic industry friends (old and new) to talk about how awesome superheroes are and play some superhero-centric games where YOU may have a chance to play along and win prizes! It’s like Hollywood Game Night meets Doug Loves Movies meets Comic Book City. Who will score the most points in games like “Alphabet Superheroes”, “Name that Story Arc”, and “Super Suit Celebrity”? And will YOU be the lucky winner?! Guests include Jacob Chabot, Chris Giarrusso, Brian “Smitty” Smith, Erica Henderson and Chris Sims!

Show Notes:

Jermaine and Stephen pop in to catch you up on their favorite books of the week and let you know what they really thought of Thor the Dark World before turning it over to a pre-recorded session with Jermaine and Ryan Rubio in which they discuss how Wolverine is one of the few Big Two characters to truly transcend the old adage that what comic readers truly want is merely the illusion of change!

Show Notes:

Jermaine, Stephen and Jody try and remember how to do this whole podcasting thing by getting a jump on Free Comic Book Day 2014, discussing new (and some not-so-new) characters hitting the shelves in February, flip-floping on Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and picking up where they left off with Comics at the Table!

Show Notes:

Recorded during Comic Book City Con 2013 at the Elm St. Center in Greensboro, NC!

The Doubleclicks, a nerd-folk sister duo, write songs that are snarky, geeky and sweet and perform them on cello and ukulele. In this all-ages-friendly concert-panel, the band will sing about topics including love, Dungeons and Dragons, Mr. Darcy and Velociraptors and talk about being geek girl musicians.

Jermaine, Stephen and Jody get you caught up on the latest pre-commissions and panel scheduling for Comic Book City Con, look back on the successes and failures of DC's Villains Month, tip-toe around the content of Sex Criminals, and ponder the future of the Marvel cinematic Universe on the big and small screen based on the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. pilot!
