Chris and Reggie's Cosmic Treadmill episodes

  • Cosmic Treadmill, Episode 21 - Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane #106 (1970)
    By special request of Toby Hagen from 42shadesofgeek.co.uk, Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) read Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane #106 cover dated November, 1970, a story titled "I Am Curious (Black)!" In the comic book, Lois Lane turns African-American for 24 hours, and in the podcast, Chris and Reggie fumble through the issue and a partial history of black representation in comics. It's unclear as to which one is more cringe-worthy!

  • Cosmic Treadmill, Episode 36 - New Warriors #1 (1990)
    This week, Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) read the first issue of that team of teens with 'tude, The New Warriors from 1990, written by Fabian Nicieza and drawn by Mark Bagley! After the usual biographies, they go through every page of the issue, then continue the story with rough breakdowns of all five volumes with the same title. Then, after completing the creators' bios, the guys talk a little about the direct market and rampant comic books speculation prevalent when The New Warriors #1 was released. Plus: listener mail! You won't want to miss this episode, which should be immediately bagged and boarded with a minimum of handling.
