February 13, 2019 #103 - Comic Books: Rent or Own?
On this episode of Panelism, Taylor and Todd tackle one of those questions that comes up again and again during our comic book discussions: in a digital world, is it better to own or rent (via subscription) your comic books? That brings up a lot of other questions that we discuss as well.

February 06, 2019 #102 - Unnatural Vol 1
Well, Taylor asks the obvious question, "what does that even mean?" after Todd introduces the episode. This book, Unnatural by Mirka Andolfo, is really unusual. It's a story about a totalitarian government...and the pig people, mouse people, wolf people, and goat people who are oppressed by said government because they...can't legally get it on together. It's pervy and dark and scary and hilarious and wonderful.

January 30, 2019 #101 - Technopriests
In this episode, Taylor talks about Jodorowsky's Technopriests, published between 1998 and 2006 in eight issues (or chapters). It's another sci-fi nightmarish/dystopian/awesome vision from a singular visionary.

January 09, 2019 #99 - Crisis on Infinite Earths
Approaching episode 100, Todd and Taylor do an epic episode on the legendary cross-over event book: Crisis on Infinite Earths. TL;DL not worth having on your shelf. Join us as Todd rants about the racism, sexism, and bad writing of a book so impenetrable that DC continues to name books "Crisis" in an attempt to water-down the word and make it less crisis-y. We also talk about Aquaman and, inevitably, Kingsmen but also...Under the Cherry Moon?

December 26, 2018 #98 - Cannon God Exaxxion Stage 1
Todd talks about Kenichi Sonoda's Cannon God Exaxxion, the follow-up series to Sonoda's Gunsmith Cats which has always been a favorite. Re-reading Cannon God has Todd wondering if Gunsmith Cats is as problematic. It's an interesting episode as Todd has to re-examine a creator he's always thought highly of and arrives at the conclusion that you don't need this book on your shelf.

December 19, 2018 #97 - Before Watchmen: Ozymandias
Taylor talks about the prequel we were all waiting for (were we?): Before Watchmen. And specifically, Ozymandias. Written by legend Len Wein and illustrated by the brilliant Jae Lee, Ozymandias is the best of the Before Watchmen bunch. Fans of Watchmen or Batman: Year One might want to check this one out.

December 12, 2018 #96 - The Unstoppable Wasp
Todd got so into Volume 1 of The Unstoppable Wasp that he immediately read Volume 2. He talks about them both here. It's a cool pair of books for those who liked Mockingbird and Batgirl of Burnside. Todd also lets us know his feelings about the Civil War II crossover issue that appears at the end of Volume 1 to totally interrupt the flow of the book. He really isn't happy about that. Like 10 minutes of unhappy.

November 28, 2018 #94 - Just Imagine Stan Lee's Catwoman
Todd brings a real throwback oddity this week. It's called "Just Imagine...Stan Lee's Catwoman." Published by DC in 2002, it was part of a 13 issue Just Imagine series in which Stan Lee rewrote the origins and characters of classic DC characters. Todd and Taylor tell the story of Stan Lee's post-Marvel years and this weird comic.
