Sit back and enjoy an extended special guest episode. Featuring the super talented David Petersen of Mouseguard fame. David, Kelly Jeff and Paul hardly miss Andrew at all

The gang plan to discuss web comics, get distracted by the awesome stupidity of Mark Millar and Todd McFarlane and Kelly goes off the deep end!

In which Famine, pestilence Plague and My Little Pony discuss the funny strips. Is Calvin and Hobbes the best strip ever or does Peanuts retain that crown? We pick four more talented artists, have a pop at the unfunniest fat cat in comics and love Bloom County, Hergé and The Moomins newspaper strip.

In which Kelly, Jeff Paul and Andrew catch up on the comics show G+ action, briefly discuss Calvin and Hobbes (and Andrew's criminal past), talk a LOT about how comics and social media are a match made in heaven, and get all excited about more picks including the wholly excellent Mouseguard by Dave Peteresen

Jeff, Kelly, Andrew and Paul invent a whole new genre of comic, although Jeff is late to the party (With Audio), Andrew cheats at "better than Gave Dibbons", Alex G Fox gets some comic advice and the America's Army comic makes us all just a little bit sick.

Enjoy!

The one in which the team try to discover what happened to issue 5, discuss why the X-Men are such a big deal, and have a chat about the depiction of women in comics. We also find four artists who are better than unknown comic artist Grave Dibbons and hate on Skype

Jeff, Kelly Paul and Andrew talk comic readers. Do you do it digitally or with paper and why. Kelly reveals her comics safe place while Andrew discovers that even Brian Bolland makes mistakes. We also discuss the importance of the Comic Store and comics community. Dave Gibbons remains unimpressed.

Kelly has a squee moment regarding her last weeks pic. We discuss Denver Comic Con, which Jeff attended, and comic/genre culture. We reveal who is better than Dave Gibbons this week

Kelly and Paul decide they had something to say about Watchmen by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, but we also talk about the movie. And Dredd, we promise to do comic dread again later. Kelly has love for Stumptown, Jeff loves Andrew loves Metalzoic like and Paul goes for Chew.

THIS IS IT! The first Issue of The Comic Show from BTN.

So teething-trouble is what the 'T' stands for in BTN and we have some issues getting the whole thing started this week and the quality of Audio BUT...dont judge on this episode alone
