🎒This Week In Comics John and DJ give their opinion on the Marvel/Sony/Spider-Man fiasco. Before that there is plenty to chat about in this weeks news.  Then after all that they get to talk about this weeks comic books.  One of the books they read is so appropriate for today.  And one of the books they read, not so much...  They can’t agree on everything.
