Our love of comics doesn’t end with the books; it extends to the shops themselves. This week we discuss comic shops and the strange and wonderful creatures that frequent them. We talk about our appearance at New Dimension Comics this past Free Comic Book Day, being a collector, Star Wars and the awesome side effects of drinking chocolate milk.

Who would win in a fight? Han Solo or Captain Kirk? Find out the answer in this podcast. We also discuss the highs and lows of comic books throughout the 80’s, 90’s and today, the Death of Superman, the boom that was Image Comics and Ian’s lack of sleep results in a barrage of incorrect information.

Comic book movies are filled with amazing actors who can deliver performances so awe-inspiring that you would swear the heroes jumped from the pages to the silver screen. There are also those performances so awful that you end up puking in your popcorn.

We also review Shutterbug Follies, Voltron, and Teen Titans.

On the road back to Talkingaboutcomicsville the McSoss Podcast crew takes a detour to Dealerschoicetown. This week we get into our favorite video games and some of the strange things we would do to enhance the experience. We talk about old school action figures, briefly debate who would win in a fight between Thor and He-Man and provide the fans with more thrilling on-air arguments about definitions and grammar.

In this contentious episode, we discuss which superheroes make the grade from A-list to B-list or lower. We break down where heroes "on the bubble" stand, like Storm, Green Lantern, and Aquaman.
