  • Acmecast #107 - We Are Legion!

    Jermaine puts on his best clip-on tie and used car salesman persona and finds out what it's gonna take to put Griffin, Jody and YOU, the Listener, into a copy of X-Men Legacy #1 during this week's edition of Comics at the Table!

    Show Notes:

    • What's Fiona Staples going to draw next? Apparently, Gus from Sweet Tooth!
    • The guys forgot to point out that Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez both appear as minor characters in Locke & Key Omega #1, neat as an Easter egg on its own, but doubly cool because of Joe Hill's father Stephen King's propensity to appear in adaptations of his own work.
    • Chillin', very much akin to villains!
    • Comics at the Table! - Saga #7, Conan the Barbarian #10, Locke & Key Omega #1, Batgirl #14, Avengers Assemble #9, Fantastic Four #1, Thor God of Thunder #1, X-Men Legacy #1!

    • Acmecast #106 - Good Ol' Children of the Atom!

      In anticipation of Wednesday's All New X-men #1, Jermaine sat down with mutant maniacs Ryan Rubio and John Bethel, who long time listeners will recognize from the Avengers Assemble saga and Thanos Quest parts 1 and 2, and Acme Wave Projector rookie Matt Parrell to go over what has brought the students of Xavier to this point, for better or for worse!
