In addition to talking about the week's comic books there is a disagreement about word pronunciation and way too much about someone's personal health.

Thanks to our awesome Patrons, we're proud to present another Booksplode!What's a Booksplode? It's a bi-monthly special edition show in which we take a look at a single graphic novel or collected edition, something we really just don't have time to do on the regular show.This month, Josh Flanagan and Conor Kilpatrick take a look at Batman by Neal Adams, Book Three by Neal Adams, Dennis O'Neil, Dick Giordano, Len Wein, and Frank Robbins!Here's a color/art comparison of one of the pages that we talked about on the show as it is presented in this edition versus The Greatest Joker Stories Ever Told collection:Running Time: 00:42:04Music:"You've Got a Friend (2019 Remaster)"James Taylor  Learn more about your ad choices.

We talk and talk and talk and talk, which is good, because it's kind of the point, and you get this super-sized show, despite the month plus of weird comic weeks. It's possible Phil Noto stopped by (he didn't), and Josh's dog makes a cameo. And then we keep talking. Conor thought it was 5 years ago. Listen for any of that to make sense. My goodness, we talked a lot.Running Time: 01:27:07Pick of the Week:00:03:14 - The Butcher of Paris #3Comics:00:12:55 - Daredevil #1700:17:26 - Doctor Doom #500:22:19 - Lois Lane #800:26:19 - The Man Who Fucked Up Time #100:33:48 - Usagi Yojimbo #800:35:58 - Birthright #4100:38:33 - Justice League #40Star Wars Corner:00:42:10 - Star Wars: Darth Vader #1Patron Pick:00:51:06 - X-Men/Fantastic Four #1Patron Thanks:01:06:33 - John Morrison01:07:26 - Christopher K.

HELLO-EE-YO! Folks are feeling better. Not all better, but listening to the ragged voices isn't quite as grating this week, so... progress! This one starts out with a bit of a lament, before giggling about the many funny things in the Pick of the Week. It's a good discussion week for sure, and the cough quotient is way way down. Plus, is this the longest haranguing of a double page spread ever? Might could be.Running Time: 01:11:33Pick of the Week:00:05:18 - Wonder Twins #11Comics:00:13:17 - Superman #1900:22:17 - Guardians of the Galaxy #100:26:07 - Detective Comics #101900:30:20 - Fantastic Four #1800:36:48 - Middlewest #1400:39:40 - Shazam! #1000:41:11 - The Amazing Spider-Man #3800:44:04 - Marauders #6Patron Pick:00:48:39 - Wonder Woman #750Patron Thanks:00:57:47 - Terrell Tolliver00:59:39 - Kyle Rovagug01:00:47 - Karl Erikson01:03:00 - Andrew IzguerraNews:01:08:51 - Please consider voting for Bill Sienkiewicz: Revolution, Vol. 1 for Best Collection in the Tripwire Awards!Brought to You By:• Netflix Behind the Scenes Podcast - Season two looks at The Witcher!

Two jamokes took a couple weeks off from the weekly show, and have returned slightly less than when they left, but they fight through illness to deliver the expected comic book program to the patient multitudes.
