Another great show and another lot of books to buy.

The Cullen Bunn & Brian Hurtt interview was great I am really interested in The Damned I thought the style and backdrop seemed very interesting I am totally going to dive into that.

Also props to Josh for that Joe Casey interview, even though I haven't read any of his books yet that was brilliant.

Pick up The Damned as soon as possible. I enjoyed the heck out of the first series. I still have to pick up the newest set, but the original was pretty snazzy.

Hm. Seems I shall be buying The Damned soon.

Looks and sounds very cool.

Just wanted to say the Joe Casey bit was so funny I shat my pants. Hilarious, hilarious stuff....

Amazing episode. Next year can you shoot for a three-parter?

[esophagus]

I think a three parter might kill them.

Seeing the iFanboy crew actually at the con makes me want to tell them to do a one parter. Or just a write-up. Just get out and enjoy some of it without working!

Thats not to say I don't love the video shows. Awesome stuff.
