This special mid-week bonus episode is an interview recorded in Challengers with Onrie Kompan and Dan Dougherty, creators of the new real life historical graphic novel MARX: A Tale of Neglect.

It was recorded just before Christmas, so forgive a few Holiday well-wishes that are merely a week old.

This graphic novel is the story of what Onrie’s grandfather went thru during World War II.

Find out how it came about, how Dan got involved and what the whole book means to them both.

And we talk about their other work in comics.

This week is a special episode recorded outside of the car (and without food). As 2017 was winding down, I caught up with Sunny (WWE Hall-of-Famer) backstage at a Berwyn Championship Wrestling event. Sunny was fighting the stomach flu that night (the first thing she said before recording was "I hope your mic is vomit-proof"), but she pulled it together for the conversation. In this Boost Mobile-sponsored episode, we talked about: After a tabloidish few years, Sunny says everything is awesome: "The past few months of my life have been perfect." 1+ years of sobriety: "I'm an alcoholic; not an addict." The mentorship of people like Jim Cornette and Sherri Martel Her work with the Road Warriors/Legion of Doom How she found out she was getting inducted into the WWE "I'm not a huge fan of women's wrestling." Sunny says she's on good terms with the WWE in the present day Sponsored by the fine folks at BOOST MOBILE

It finally feels like Christmas (in our cash register). (Contest of Challengers)

Christmas finally has a positive effect on sales, and it’s fun to go to work when people want to buy comics!

There is a brand new reason we’re excited to stay in our current location (if we can).

Marvel is stealth-cancelling a bunch of titles.

Some Marvel Legacy titles we really like.

Is Dan Slott leaving Amazing Spider-Man? Who can replace him?

“Surviving Creativity” is a great podcast.

We sure wish we could sell statues and more comic-themed merchandise.

Customer requests at the Holidays.
