It's time for comics to change forever, as we turn our attention to Grant Morrison and Steve Yeowell's The Invisibles #1, a comic which did something no other comic has ever done before or since. It's strange, it's intense, it's invested - and it's something which this week's special guest August Dawn has a lot of thoughts about!

Katsuhiro Otomo's seminal manga needs very little introduction, a post-apocalyptic series with fast bikes, quick wits, and high stakes. Special guest Rosie Knight joins the podcast to break down what made the comic so formative for her as a reader, and the importance it still holds today!

There's a giant collapsed robot in New York City. And, well, Spider-Man appears to be trapped inside it? That can only be a job for Damage Control - and for this week's guest Al Kennedy, who joins Matt to talk about the first issue of the classic series by Dwayne McDuffie and Ernie Colon!

Three animals go on the run in Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's powerful, emotional series We3, equipped with all the high-tech weaponry that their captors cruelly grafted onto them. Will the three find their way home? This week special guest Chloe Maveal joins the show to find out!

Bullets are flying, blood is spilling, and someone's ending up at the bottom of the river before this whole sorry mess is over. It's time for us to head into the shady part of town, as Matt is joined by special guest David Brothers to take a look at Dennis O'Neil and Denys Cowan's The Question!

What happens when an unstoppable universe meets a, uh, immovable universe? You get the first issue of Jonathan Hickman and Esad Ribic's Secret Wars! This week our special guest is Zachary Jenkins from XavierFiles and Battle of the Atom, who joins Matt to talk about the end of the world!

This week we look at the effortlessly wonderful Daytripper #1 by brothers Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá, which follows the life - and death - of an obituary writer in Brazil. Heavy stuff, but told in a wonderful and capitivating way - and The Beat's Alex Lu joins Matt to take a look back over the issue!

The smart and subversive Suicide Squad #1 by John Ostrander and Luke McDonnell sent a team of super-criminals to do what superheroes couldn't, and caused absolute chaos in the process. Comic Book dot com's Reviews Editor Chase Magnett joins Matt to talk about it!

The first issue of Frank Miller's mighty Dark Knight Returns only reached #48 in Shelfdust's poll to find the best #1 issues of all time! What's going on? Surely it should've placed higher. For our third episode of Shelfdust Presents we turn to The Beat's Kyle Pinion for answers, as we must in all things.

The first chapter of Sailor Moon landed at position #49 in Shelfdust's list of the top Fifty First Issues - and this week's guest Kayleigh Hearn (reviews editor for WomenWriteAboutComics and Shelfdust contributor) has some thoughts about that!
