BREAK: "The Store That Refused to Sell Oprah a Handbag" from the Oprah Winfrey Show https://youtu.be/IGbfJv1ia7c

Sniff, sniff... hey, this episode's got that "new season smell"!

That's right, folks... in the wake of Milk Wars, Young Animal finds itself with an unnecessary (and unearned) reboot!  All new number ones!  Don't worry, we don't play that game... this is still "episode 13" to us.

Today's discussions originally aired in segment form during the following episodes of the Weird Science DC Comics Podcast (they're all consecutive... makes ya feel pretty optimistic about the line when you omit Doom Patrol!):

Episode 166 (03.11.2018) - Shade the Changing Woman #1

Episode 167 (03.18.2018) - Eternity Girl #1

Episode 168 (03.25.2018) - Cave Carson Has an Interstellar Eye #1

Episode 169 (04.01.2018) - Mother Panic: Gotham A.D. #1

Bloodlines #1... from 2016?  Well if that seems like rather a random book to discuss here... you're not entirely off the mark.  Without this book, however, it's quite likely that this very podcasting "channel" would never have come to be!  You might consider this issue to be the gentle flapping of a butterflies wings, which ultimately led to over a hundred episodes (and counting) of the Cosmic Treadmill.

Join Chris (@acecomics) as he shares the genesis of his comics-podcasting "career", with many thanks to his friends over at Weird Science DC Comics.

What's up, ninjas! In this episode, Juggalos-in-training Chris (@AceComics) and Reggie (@reggiereggie) check out the world of the Wicked Clowns when they read Insane Clown Posse: Halls of Illusion #1, published by Chaos! Comics in 2002! After some biographies for creators Jesse McCann and Gerardo Sandoval, they provide a detailed history of Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope's often misunderstoof group. Then, they go through every page of the comic, with the usual throat-shredding panache. After a break, containing the song upon which the comic is based, the hatchet-swinging two close out their look at ICP, provide a brief history of clowns, and talk about other famous comic book clowns through history. Plus: a bunch of listener mail! It's better than catching a bottle of Faygo to the head, you don't want to miss it!

Thanks to Toby Hagen for the suggestion!
