What’s up with DC only really talking about Batman, Wonder Woman, and Superman? Let’s talk about this super trinity! Brian gamely joins DC nerds Paul and Kara for a borderline theological discussion about three of the oldest and most well-known superheroes in the biz. Also, Kara tries to convince the guys that Minions comics are genuinely great. Plus, the Star Wars announcement you’ve all been waiting for!

On this very important episode of the I Read Comic Books podcast, Brian, Kait, and Kara discuss They Called Us Enemy, our November Goodreads Book of the Month! Author George Takei (best known for his role as Hikaru Sulu on Star Trek: The Original Series) opens up about his childhood spent in the internment camps the United Stated government sent west coast Japanese Americans to following the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Equal parts touching and horrifying, this graphic novel memoir is high on our recommendation list for absolutely everyone. Seriously, if you first heard the term “Japanese internment camp” right now, please read this graphic novel immediately.
