Under the Comic Covers

This week, Under the Comic Covers revels in a cornucopia of great books. We begin by talking about Wayward #10, the spectacular end to its second arc, move on to Copperhead #9, and wrap everything up with the long awaited Sex Criminals #11.

Unfortunately, we don't have any books to discuss on Top of the Stack. We do, however, answer your emails and bring up a few news items.

Although this was a slow week for new comic releases, Under the Comic Covers still carries on. We continue our way through Brian K. Vaughan's acclaimed completed series, Y: The Last Man with Volume 2: Cycles.

Mr. Blahg brings a beloved reboot to Top of the Stack with Archie #1 by Mark Waid and Fiona Staples; and Grace, unbeknownst to her, finds herself recommending Sunstone by Stjepan Sejic from Top Cow Productions, a beautiful BDSM love story.

And of course, we answer some mail... all for the low low price of nothing but an hour plus of your time. Thanks for listening... and enjoy the show.

Under the Comic Covers goes on the road this week and Grace and Mr. Blahg talk about their first two days at San Diego Comic Con, and as luck would have it, the three books we discuss this week were all huge issues, each closing out their respective arcs.

The Walking Dead #144: ... , delivers a dramatic kick in the gut, Saga #30 brings closure to some, horror to others, and Black Science #16 doesn't hold back on the adventure from the first page to the last.

The comic gods were good to us this week, and Under the Comic Covers is back with two fantastic issues. First, we go over Nailbiter #14, where we think we are getting answers, but it really feels like we're getting more questions. Finally, we delve into the shocking fiftieth issue of CHEW. In the end, who will still be standing?

Mr Blahg discusses the latest Image Comics' release from Brian K.Vauaghan, as he and artist Steve Skroce bring us a story about war between the U.S. and Canada in We Stand on Guard in our Top of the Stack segment.

Under the Comic Covers is back this week with two favorites... one rather old, the other quite new. The Walking Dead #143: A Union was a fantastic issue with a few surprises and some unadulterated joy (not much, but what do you expect). Wayward #9 uncovers more threads, more spinners, and a potential new stressor in our young heroes' supergroup.

Grace brings a new title from Image Comics to Top of the Stack, Brian Buccellato and Toni Infante's Sons of the Devil. And as always, we answer your mail and talk about a some comic news of the week.

Under the Comic Covers spends some time in Buckaroo, Oregon this week as we delve into Joshua Williamson and Mike Henderson's Nailbiter #13 from Image Comics. With a mix of flashbacks and horrific new revelations, this month's entry is one you can't miss.

After a week off, Under the Comic Covers returns to discuss three of our favorite titles (as if they weren't all our favorite titles). We begin with the first arc ending issue of They're Not Like Us #6, move on to the gorgeous Japanese tale of Wayward #8, and conclude with an always welcome dose of hilarity with CHEW #49.

This week's Top of the Stack features Harrow County by Cullen Bunn and Tyler Crook from Dark Horse Comics. Mr. Blahg also brings up a few other titles... Lady Killer from Dark Horse, and two comics from Image, Nonplayer and Injection. All highly recommended.
