We try and pick up the slack dropped by a missing Jason Wooode with willy-nilly wordplay on Hickman, Eaglesham, and Mounts triumphant Fantastic Four #570 (once again reclaiming its flagship status and tagline of the World’s Greatest Comic Magazine), Ian Churchill and Hulk #14, crime comics: The Hunter, Filthy Rich, and Dark Entries, Vertigo’s fantabulous Madame Xanadu by Matt Wagner, Amy Reeder Hadley, and Richard Friend, listener comments, leaving comics, Fanzine Flashback: Amazing Heroes #113, more than necessary on Solson, Sky Doll, Bongo Comics, The Simpsons, and the arrival of Sergio Aragones, Red Circle, Dark Reign, Norman Osborn, and Dark Reign: Mr. Negative, Daredevil #500, War Machine, and oodles more!

In our post-Wizard World Chicago…er…Chigago Comic-Con episode, Chris and Vince tell tales both long and short about their convention experience (including the D-bag in a Yellow Hat, Tex in an elevator, almost dousing Skottie Young with ginger ale, chaos at the X-Force panel, bin diving, Chris’ apology, con crud, and more), after which we attempt to answer the musical question of what exactly is a cartoonist, touch upon Ultimate Fantastic Four: Requiem, Gil Kane‘s Sword of the Atom, New Mutants #1-3, Archie Double Digest #200, Marvel’s Avengers books, a merry mess of Hotline messages, and…you know the drill. Next on the horizon: Windy City!
