After a few updates and announcements for the 20th Anniversary gathering, Patreon, and Youtube, Bryan, Peter, Shane, Pants and Adam return to Off the Rack to discuss Ghost Machine, the first fully shared creator-owned comic book universe! By the creative team of Geoff Johns, Brad Anderson and Rob Leigh, we give our thoughts on the first issues of Geiger with art by Gary Frank; Redcoat with art by Bryan Hitch; and Rook: Exodus with art by Jason Fabok. We then get into some convention talk with a recent visit to the Lehigh Valley Comic Con, do some Year Two CGS Trivia, and more! (1:34:13)

1937 - Off the Rack: Ghost Machine

It's hard to believe it's been so long since the last time the Geeks had Katie Cook on the show, so now it's time to rectify that! Shane, Murd and Ian discuss Katie's first physical edition of Nothing Special, as well as the online Webtoon version that started it all. We talk what it took to transition from one format to the other, how Webtoon initially approached her for the project, and learning how to do art digitally. We also delve into the fandom that comes with a webcomic, the joy that is Radish, some Gronk, flasks and bowling balls named Eula, avoiding children's band practice, the uniqueness of Hot Topic, some Super Show memories, and lots more! (1:35:45)

1936 - Catching Up with Katie Cook
