- Cosmic Treadmill, Episode 44 - Gen13 #13a, 13b, and 13c (1996)
Greetings, mallrats and skate betties! This week, Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) dive into a trio of comic books from 1996, all with the same issue number. It's Gen13 issues #13a, #13b and #13c by Jim Lee, Brandon Choi and J. Scott Campbell! After the usual creator bios and background information, they delve into and provide voices for each of these issues, detailing the origins of all featured characters as well as other "valuable" information about their first appearances. After a break, the two wrap up the Gen13 series and other relevant creator info, then talk about some of their favorite gimmick covers from that period in comics history known as the Chromium Age! You're going to want two copies of this episode--one for listening to and the other for bagging and filing away!

1 hr 29 min - Cosmic Treadmill, Episode 43 - Daredevil #161 (1979)
In this episode, Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) delve into the seedy side of late 1970s New York City, when they read Daredevil #161 by Roger McKenzie and Frank Miller! After dispensing with the usual biographical information, the two discuss the history of two Daredevils, then set the stage before reading the issue in question. Then, after detailing the history of Daredevil after #161, they give some historical background for this issue's location, Coney Island, then wrap up by naming some more handicapped superheroes. It's almost as fun as an amusement park, so don't miss it!
