This week's recording went sideways on us, so we reached into the archives and pulled out this Bonus episode Cory and Hub recorded for Patreon a depressing number of years ago. They talk about Wonder Woman issues #265-266, and probably a bunch of other stuff as well. Who can remember? It was 2016, a year most of us have tried to blot out of our respective memories. We'll have the show back on track with a real episode next week, but in the meantime, do your best to Enjoy! Enjoy!
