The Titans try their best to figure out why a trio of cagey criminals are suddenly in cahoots, and we try our best to figure out what is in Danny's sandwich. We read New Teen Titans (Vol 2) #40. Topics include: Gardner Fox; Vic's questionable word choice; and seriously, what is in that sandwich?!

We read the divisive New Teen Titans (Vol 2) Annual #3, featuring the debut of Danny Chase. Is this the issue where the Titans series "jumps the shark," as in starts going downhill after introducing a new character? Or does it "jump the shark," as in it does something rad, like jumping over a shark on a motorcycle? Opinions vary.

It's our 227th episode! Unfortunately, Hub doesn't remember much about the show 227, so mostly we talk about New Teen Titans (Vol 2) #39. The Titans sit around and talk about their feelings...and you guys? It's great! I know! We're as surprised as you are! Enjoy! Enjoy!

Fzzzat! In the Defenders #96, our heroes team up with Ghost Rider for some rock & roll demon fighting, Detroit style! That's when the demon fighting is square and has a thicker crust. Topics include: scary posters, Robert Anton Wilson, and satanic pyramid schemes!

Splo-osh! The Titans conclude their team up with Infinity Inc as the two teams battle a giant swarm of pink space cereal that has congealed around the body of an albino mutant gorilla in the pages of Infinity Inc #45. We talk about sexy mummies, celery soda, and the fact that Beast Boy doesn't know what a dog is.

It's a Drac attack! We read Defenders #95. Everyone's favorite non-team has a non-team up with Dracula, so naturally we talk about the one time in a novel where Shaft ordered and ate 7 hot dogs without realizing it. Pretty good.

For the past 711 episodes, hosts Gary and Ed have alternated weeks talking about one of two seminal (calm down, Ed, it's a word) comic series: Youngblood, and Geriatric Gangrene Jujitsu Gerbils. As of last week, they wrapped up their coverage of Youngblood, so now they turn their attention to that most popular of superheroes, The Ferret! They discuss the characters meteoric rise to popularity in the Golden Age, and his evolution into a 90's antihero before delving into the debut issue of his eponymous 1993 solo title.
