For no particular reason other than we wanted to, the gang chats about 1991’s THE ROCKETEER (dir. by Joe Johnston) as well as a bunch of Rocketeer comics!!! The boys are joined by John Burkle and Aaron Amos to talk a ton of comics as well and pay tribute to comics legend Joe Sinnott.

Apologies for some technical difficulties this week—the internet did not agree with us and there were some drops and bumps along the way, but we were able to put together a show for you this week!
