We celebrate our 250th episode of Comic Timing with…an episode of the show! Makes sense, don’t it? Filling in for Murd this month while he practices his stagecraft is none other than Chris Eberle, along with Ian and Raph, to cover all the May Previews catalogs. This includes Image Catalog Issue 7, DC Connect issue 60, Marvel Previews Vol 6 issue 44, and Diamond Previews issue 440 and a little bit of Lunar’s Next Phase Issue 41, with books mainly set for July 2025 release. Highlights include Archie crossing over with both Minor Threats and Jay & Silent Bob, the relaunch of Fantastic Four, a weekly Gotham Sirens event, DC collecting someof the earliest Silver Age Hawkman appearances, Gail Simone taking on Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon: Nemesis for Titan, a new volume of Space Ghost, Criminal’s return just in time for its upcoming Amazon adaptation, and so much more.
