Joe and Mike break down Mike Mignola's first, incredibly successful, creator-owned comic.

What's the answer to The Question? We take a break to address some of our listener questions on the air, allowing for a wide range of topics. Joe and Mike address their feelings on social commentary in media, changing the books to be like the movies, and even what kind of t-shirts they prefer!

Listen in while Mike and Joe discuss Tom King and Mitch Gerads' 2019 Mr. Miracle maxiseries in our second full comic review.

But can Mr. Miracle, the greatest escape artist of all time, even escape death itself?

In our first full comic book review, Joe and Mike tackle the event that broke the Avengers circa 2004.
