Sean, this made me laugh out loud at my desk for whatever reason. Fun podcast, guys! I like the ones that are just kinda free form. Great work.
Glad I can improve desk life a little bit!
I listened to it at work today too :thumb:

Just discovered the podcast. Diving in now at ep. 132. Just wanted to say thanks for doing it and keep up the good work!

My comics resolutions for 2014:
- Finish my X-Men reading marathon which started at X-Men Vol. 1 #1 a few years ago, and is up to Age of Apocalypse now. Gotta power through to Grant Morrison by end of 2014!
- Re-read the complete original Shadowman run.
- Read the freakin' Man-Thing Omnibus that's been sitting on my desk for the past 8 months!

We did an episode focused on the latter half of the original Shadowman run. There was a rap in one of the issues that we performed on the podcast.

Before the release of VEI books. It's worth the listen. Maybe not Grammy worthy, but Billboard for sure.

Great episode guys. Always like when you talk about older comics. One of you mentioned wanting to read the final issue of Lone Wolf & Cub. Issue #45 from First comics. FYI, while it is the final First comics issue, that run really only prints about half of the Lone Wolf & Cub story. Dark Horse would go on to reprint all the First comics issue as well as the rest of the story. And it does have a great epic ending.

DONE!!!!!

I am finally all caught up. It feels a bit weird to be honest, knowing I don't have anymore episodes to listen to. Also now I have to wait for new episodes ... hmmm ... maybe I didn't think this through well enough.

Before I was a regular part of OTV, I listened to each episode multiple times. I have not done much re-listening in a while..... but some of the shows I listened to like 5 or 6 times.

I did listen to some episodes multiple times as I went along. Maybe I will re-visit some episodes.
