Welcome back to our morbid curiosity theme where we look at comics that are supposedly the worst, but we need to find out just how bad these are.

On today's episode Cody, Tailon, Jake and Chawienta discuss All Star Batman and Robin, The Boy Wonder volume 1 by Frank Miller (Sin City) and Jim Lee (Batman: Hush) with help from Scott Williams (WildC.A.T.S.); which might be the true pinnacle of this theme. Not the worst comic ever but certainly bad.
