WCPEver Episode 340 - #My500ComicGoal with Mike Nickells
On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!, 2020 is quickly coming to an end, so we have one last check-in on the #My500ComicGoal challenge! We even invited friend-of-the-show Mike Nickells into the studio to discuss this movement he helped start last January. Who would have thought back then that we would have time this year to reach 500 comics read? And we're sure that some of you are wondering if we reached 500 books? Collectively, we sure did! We also take the opportunity to point out some of the 2020 highlights (not an oxymoron!) of our reading and viewing from the last 366 days, give or take. There really was a lot of great stuff out there in 2020, and we'll run down some of those for you. We thought we might discuss WW84 this week, but we talked about so many comics this week, we need to push the movie discussion back seven days. Tune in next week for our thoughts on Diana in the 1980s. Of course, we have our Pick 3 choices for new books hitting the stores today. As of the posting of this podcast, there are just two shopping days remaining in 2020, so use them wisely! We would love to hear your comments on the show.

WCPEver Episode 338 - Marvel Spotlight with Don Leibold
On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!, we are joined by Don Leibold to discuss the Marvel 616 series on Disney +. This show debuted in November 2019, but in all fairness, we were focusing on season 1 of The Mandalorian then. While we are still focusing on Mandalorian, we have all had a little more free time over the last few months to watch some additional programming. Marvel 616 takes a look at the impact of the comics and characters in the real world. Episodes focus on how a monthly comic is made, international artists, cosplay, school plays with Marvel characters, toys and so much more. These episodes usually clock in around one hour and can be watched in any order. Of course, we have to cover the many announcements Disney made last week at their investors' meeting, with all of the new projects due to role out in theaters or on Disney + in the next two years. That could have been an entire podcast just with those announcements. We have our Pick 3 choices for new books hitting the shelves today, or yesterday with Cullen's pick from DC Comics. Whether you are visiting Clint's Comics or your local comic shop, be responsible and wear a mask and gloves. We would love to hear your comments on the show.

WCPEver Episode 336 - Holiday Comics with Jim McClain
On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!, the holiday season is finally here. After a year like 2020, we find ourselves thinking back to past holiday seasons with positive memories. Obviously, with a show like WCPEver, our holiday memories focus on the holiday comics of our youth, which is a good reason to bring friend-of-the-show Jim McClain back to hang out with us! Now, if you've listened to us for any length of time, you know that sometimes we get off track, as a comment will bring up a side conversation followed by another side conversation. So, that said, we ramble all over the place this episode. We also catch up on some Star Wars viewing, discussing The Mandalorian and the LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special. So, who's getting a Grogu for Christmas this year? As always, we have our Pick 3 selections for this week, sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics.

WCPEver Episode 335 - Ranking Movies with Vince Vaughan
EOn this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!, we have made it to Thanksgiving Eve! For many people, we have a long four-day weekend ahead of us with our immediate family... the same family you have been quarantining with since mid-March. But have no fear, as the guys at WCPEver have you covered. This week, you get: One of our longer episodes, as we know you will have plenty of time to listen to it. A fun conversation with friend-of-the-show Vince Vaughan of the Technically Drinking Podcast. Vince and his crew (Eddie, Eden, and Taylor) have been knocking it out of the park for the last two years as the premier podcast for nerds who like to argue and drink. Vince brought along a list that he is working on to rank/categorize all of the many movies derived from comic book origins. Will we spend a lot of time discussing the Fantastic Four films? Not likely. Is Black Panther one of the all-time greatest comic book movies? We may be swaying Vince's opinion. Should Superman: The Movie and Superman II be viewed as separate films or one long film? One of the many questions that are raised during our discussion. As always, we have our Pick 3 selections for this week, sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics. Please remember to support your local comic shops, especially as we head into the holiday season. Shops will be closed on Thursday, so be sure to pick up your new stack of books today! We would love to hear your comments on the show. Let us know what you've been reading or watching this week.

WCPEver Episode 334 - DC Changes and Comic Talk
On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!, it's been a while since we have had a chance to just talk about comics. Sure, we put out a podcast last week and talked comics then. But this is a week when we could just get into our reading piles and review some reads. We also spend some time discussing changes and speculation regarding DC Comics. Staffing changes were made last week, and not in a good way as many editors were let go. Add in the rumor mills that hint that DC may be looking at a digital-only approach to the monthly titles. And what does this mean for Wonder Woman 84? Of course, we are going to have things to say about all of this! As always, we have our Pick 3 selections for this week, sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics. Please remember to support your local comic shops, especially as we head into the holiday season. Don't let those pull books pile up, loyal listeners! Buy those comics, read them, then send us a note and tell us about them.

WCPE Episode 333 - The 27 Run Crush with Justin Zimmerman
On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!, Cullen and Jerry sit down with writer Justin Zimmerman to talk about his upcoming book, The 27 Run: Crush. The original book, The 27 Run, came out in 2018 and is still available via Amazon, Comixology, or the publisher A Wave Blue World's website. The book can be summed up as Mechs vs Monsters with a black-comedy twist. If you are a fan of Godzilla or the Pacific Rim movies, this is the title for you! Now the sequel, The 27 Run: Crush, is set to hit comic book store shelves in January. You can place your order now with your LCS, as it is in the current Previews catalog. In addition, the hardcover collection of the entire The 27 Run: Crush series will be available in March 2021. With a background in film, Justin brings a distinct approach to his storytelling, helping to transform a cinematic concept into a printed collection. Joining Justin on the Run is artist Russ Brown and colorist Fran Gamboa, whose combined output reminds one of George Perez and looks outstanding on the printed page and the digital screen. In addition, we have our Pick 3 selections for this week, sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics. Please remember to support your local comic shops, especially as we head into the holiday season. Don't let those pull books pile up, loyal listeners! Buy those comics, read them, then send us a note and tell us about them.

WCPEver Episode 332 - Wherever I Go, He Goes
With all of the craziness in our world right now, a little bit of calmness returned to our lives last Friday with the release of episode 1 of The Mandalorian Season 2 on Disney +. This is the way. With a return to Tatooine, and appearances by Tusken Raiders, Jawas, and the Boba Fett armor, all is well with Cullen and Jerry as they gush over the first episode. In addition, we each got the chance to read the concluding issue of Batman: Three Jokers from DC Comics. We share our wrap-up thoughts and how this impacts the world of the Dark Knight going forward. It's been a while since we checked in on our #My500ComicGoal challenge. Jerry reached the 1500-book mark on Halloween, which means it's time for another Darwyn Cooke Parker book.

WCPEver Episode 331 - Nerd Mental Health with Angie Pedersen
OK, let's get real this week. There is a lot going on in the world right now. I mean, we always have to deal with whatever life gives us, right? But right now life seems to be giving all of us more than we can handle. Whether it's the pandemic, staying at home, concerns about finances or health, the contentious election cycle, or any other number of high-stress issues in our lives, it's pushing a lot of people right now to their breaking point. We see it from you. Heck, we see it in ourselves. And sometimes, you have to be willing and able to say, "Help!". On this week's show, we brought in friend-of-the-show Angie Pedersen, who runs the KC Geeks blog. In fact, her most recent post on the blog is Coping with Depression and Anxiety. Angie has also helped run mental health panels at our local cons - check out her recap of her panel at the 2018 Planet Comicon. Angie sat down with Cullen and Jerry for a free-form conversation about identifying issues, tricks to help cope with life, and ways to seek out assistance. We share based on our own collective experiences and hope that something we said in this episode can be of help to you.

WCPEver Episode 330 - La MANO del DESTINO Kickstarter with J. Gonzo
On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!, we are joined in the studio by comic creator J. Gonzo, who has a new Kickstarter for La MANO del Destino, a Lucha Libre tale set in Mexico in the 1960s. Think wrestling with a Mad Men vibe, and you are on board for this project. What makes this project so unique is that the project is a flipbook. On one side, you can read the six-issue series in English. Flip the book over and you can read the six-issue series in Spanish. In between the two collections are pages of bonus material and pin-ups, giving you a 400-page book for your support. Now I know you're thinking, what about the rewards? Seriously, you want more than just the book? Well, there's art prints, doodles, the original comics... oh, and a LUCHA MASK! Name one other comic Kickstarter offering you a kick-butt Lucha mask to wear while reading this book. We'll wait here while you compile your list. You owe it to yourself to check out the campaign video on the Kickstarter page. We swear on the spirit of sweet baby Jack Kirby that this is the best promotional video ever put together for a Kickstarter campaign. Gonzo was answering our questions before we could even think of them. The video alone should get you to back the project, and the finished book is just bonus comic goodness. Now, the campaign is in the final two weeks, so we really need you to review this project today and show your support! Books will be in your hands for the holidays, so keep it for yourself or give it away as a gift. (Or buy two books, one for yourself and one to give away!) Sadly John couldn't join us this week, but he still gave us his choice for our Pick 3 selections, sponsored by Clint's Comics.

On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!, we are joined in the studio by friend-of-the-show Brent Kincade. After all, if we are going to be discussing Batman: Three Jokers, we need a third Joker for the conversation, right? With the release of the second issue, more questions are raised with few answers provided. What are Batman's true feelings about Red Hood? What's going on between Batgirl and Red Hood? And why was Joe Chill in Crime Alley that night? This story has us all shades of confused, but we want more. Give us the third issue now, DC! Cullen shares the details of a recent Kickstarter project that he supported, and Jerry got in a reward from a Kickstarter last spring. We also run down what we have been reading lately, with Jerry pushing to reach 2,000 books read by the end of the year. Even though John couldn't join us this week, he still gave us his choice for our Pick 3 selections, sponsored by Clint's Comics.

WCPEver Episode 323 - Remembering Chadwick Boseman
On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!: Like many others in our fandom, we are saddened over the passing of actor Chadwick Boseman, known to many as the face of the Black Panther of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Boseman was 43. Since coming to the big screen in Captain America: Civil War, Boseman has inspired fans, young and old, with his portrayal of T'Challa which seemed to leap straight from the pages of a comic book. We look back at Boseman's impact in his too-short career and wonder what can be done going forward with the Marvel films. As always, we have our Pick 3 choices, sponsored by our good friends at Clint's Comics. Be sure to support your local comic shop, and wear your gloves and masks when shopping.

Tim gives us the history of the title and how this opportunity came together for OmahaBound. As if that wasn't enough to talk about this week, DC Comics hosted their FanDome online convention last Saturday, announcing new film projects, debuting new trailers, and getting us all excited about the future of the Distinguished Competition.

If you grew up reading comics like we have, then you certainly have read a Paul Kupperberg story or two along the way. Closely associated with DC Comics, Paul has also written for Charlton, Marvel, and Archie Comics (And yes, Paul did kill Archie Andrews, so you know he means business!) Kirk has been involved in the comics community for many years, working for Jim Steranko and creating his own comic fanzines in the 1980s and 1990s. Kirk is diving back into the comic industry with the launch of his website, ComicsCareer, and has a Kickstarter coming up soon with some books from both Paul and Kirk being offered.

On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast.

The guys discuss the oft-wondered question of what it takes to start your own podcast. The path you take can vary from person to person, but you're going to encounter a lot of the same decisions each time. We share our experiences in bringing our respective shows to life. (And yes, we are a podcaster short this week, as John needed some time off for a quick summer road trip. Expect to hear John back on the show very soon!)

On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!: First off, we are joined in the studio by friend-of-the-show Brent Kincade, who we have been trying to get on the show for like five years. Brent designed our logos and wrote the lyrics to WCPE in Kansas City. We are delighted to finally get him on the line for a podcast recording. This week, we were inspired to talk about the comics that inspired us. A week or so ago, this was a trending topic in social media, but we wanted to take our time with making our picks. Fair warning, we love to talk about our favorite comics, so this is going to be a long discussion. Make yourself comfortable as we dive into the books that impacted our lives. We take a minute to honor the late Representative John Lewis, a civil rights leader, a long-time Congressman, and the writer of the award-winning March graphic novel series. Of course, we have updated on our #My500ComicGoal, including some recent reads from Brent. We're going to remind you that it's not too late to join in on the fun. Want to get started?

On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!: Following John's read of some old Thunderbolts issues from Marvel, we dive into the concept of Heroes and Villains.

On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!: We take a look at our recent reads over the last week for the #My500ComicGoal. Lots of great books in our queues, which makes for some fun discussions. We discuss the story of former Batgirl writer Mairghread Scott, who revealed on Twitter this past week that she quit working for DC Comics over their failure to include her in the Bat-summits. This led to a flurry of other creators sharing similar experiences. John has started watching the new season of Doom Patrol, while catching up on Harley Quinn, too.

WCPEver Episode 313 - #MeToo Time Again For Comics
OK, people, listen up. We have some trouble AGAIN (STILL?) within the comic book industry. Some people have not been playing nice with others like your mothers taught you. And while we're trying to offer some humor with this introduction, this is a serious discussion about people being groomed, targeted, and assaulted, never mind the damage done to everyone's careers. In the last week, we have seen the #MeToo tag resurface in the comic Twitterverse. Male creators have targeted younger female creators, offering up a friendship/mentorship that turns ugly. Our position is that comics do not need this, nor should we accept or tolerate this. We should treat each other as equals with respect. In addition, we offer up our tables at cons as a safe space. Now, besides that, we do have our standard comic talk, with our reads from the last week and our Pick 3 selections for new books out today.

WCPEver Episode 312 - Remembering Denny O'Neil
Since we were last together to talk comics, we lost an important part of our comic book community, as the legendary writer/editor Denny O'Neil passed away on Friday. Starting with DC in the late 1960s, Denny quickly made his presence felt on Batman, Wonder Woman, Justice League of America, Superman, and his important run on Green Lantern/Green Arrow with Neal Adams. In the late 1970s, he moved over to Marvel and added his take to the tales of Iron Man and Daredevil. In the mid-1980s, Denny returned to DC to serve as the group editor of the Batman books, which he held for 15 years. During that time, Batman exploded everywhere, with movies, the animated series, and new monthly books on the comic shelves. Most importantly, Denny served as a board member for the Hero Initiative, a cause near and dear to our hearts. We lost a true hero this week, and we spend some time recognizing his contributions to the industry. We have our Pick 3 selections, sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics. We also run down a list of free Marvel books this month spotlighting black creators, which are available to read on the Marvel app and on Comixology. We would love to hear your comments on the show.

On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!: We sit down with creator Phil Hester to talk about The Wretch Omnibus from our friends at OmahaBound. The omnibus is now available on Comixology, so we thought this would be a good time to visit with Phil about the origins of Glass City's hero. With three decades in the business, Phil is a familiar face for comic fans in the midwest, often seen with his long-time collaborator Ande Parks at cons. Phil is also currently working on Family Tree with Jeff Lemire for Image Comics. Jerry recounts the perils of home-ownership, as a water line break turned his world upside-down over the holiday weekend. We discuss the second episode of Stargirl, which has the guys excited to follow this summer. Plus the return of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D has the team traveling to the past to save Hydra!

WCPEver Episode 308 - There's a Stargirl Waiting in the Sky
Last night as news was breaking of one CW star leaving Gotham City, a new shining star took her place on the CW stage of heroes. A new shining Stargirl! Stargirl is based on the 2000 DC series Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E., about teenager Courtney Whitmore, who moves with her family to Blue Valley, Nebraska, where she becomes a superhero after finding a cosmic rod in her step-father's garage. Once she overcomes the learning curve for becoming a hero, like managing a secret identity and getting to class on time, Stargirl earns her spot as a valued member of the Justice Society of America. We take a look at the 2000 series, which can be found on the DC Universe app or in a new Stargirl trade paperback available today. Wait, did we just say it's available today? Yes, that's right, the stores are back open as new books resume shipping this week. With the return of new books, we go back to our regular habit of choosing new books each week with our Pick 3 selections. This week we choose between one DC book, one Image book, and one independent book. Can you match up the publisher with the podcaster before you listen? Speaking of new books, as the shipping schedule resumes, it turns out some books will not be returning to bookshelves. DC and Marvel have announced plans to finish up some series as digital-only books. We discuss the pros and cons of the decision. We also have updates on our #My500ComicGoal challenge. Jerry is getting closer to the goalline, but John is speeding ahead towards 1000 books. We would love to hear your comments on the show. Let us know what you've been reading or watching this week.

WCPEver Episode 307 - John has Questions about the Avengers
On this week's episode of the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER!: We look at the career of Amanda Conner for our Pick 3 choice this week. With three decades drawing the funny books for a living, Amanda Conner is at the top of her game with Harley Quinn. But would we get a Harley book signed by Amanda? Tune in to find out! Comic stores are getting ready to re-open in the next few weeks as new books begin shipping. We discuss what that might look like for stores and for customers. Are you making plans to buy books next week? We provide updates on our #My500ComicGoal challenge.

WCPEver Episode 306 - From Ciudad to Extraction with Ande Parks
Listen up, friends. Despite the movie theaters being closed, there is still a #1 movie around the world right now - Extraction on Netflix. And if you pay attention to the credits, you will see that this film is based on the Ciudad graphic novel done by friend-of-the-show Ande Parks. For the long-time listeners, you are well aware of Ande Parks by now. As a fixture in the Kansas City comic book scene and a wearer of hats, Ande joined us back on Episode 37 when Ciudad was first published. In the five years since that recording, Ciudad was optioned, went through a few script revisions and title changes, and debuted at the end of April as Extraction starring one of those Chris guys from the Marvel movies. Ande has a print for sale of Extraction's main character Tyler Rake for sale over at his website. Be sure to pick up one (or two or three...) Also, we turn our attention to creator Neal Adams for our Pick 3 choices. With a career starting in the early 1960s, we have a lot of books to choose from Adams' credit list. Finally, we check in on our reading progress for the #My500ComicGoal challenge. We would love to hear your comments on the show. Let us know what you've been reading or watching this week.

WCPEver Episode 305 - Interview with ZLONK! ZOK! ZOWIE! Editor Jim Beard
Atomic batteries to power! Turbines to speed. Roger. Ready to move out. Buckle up your Bat-Safety Belts, WCPE citizens, as we have a treat lined up for you this week. Coming to us from approximately 14 miles outside of Gotham City, we are interviewing editor Jim Beard for his new book, ZLONK! ZOK! ZOWIE! The Subterranean Blue Grotto Guide to Batman '66 - Season One. ZLONK! ZOK! ZOWIE! is an essay collection looking at the episodes from the first season of Batman. Every essay covers the two parts of each week's episode, plus a bonus essay on the first Batman theatrical release. Some familiar names in the collection include Dayton Ward & Kevin Dilmore, Paul Kupperberg, Chuck Dixon, Dan Greenfield, Chris Franklin, Peter Sanderson, Bob Greenberger, and many more. We discuss with Jim our introductions to the Batman series, bringing this book to life, our favorite Catwoman, and when we might see the season 2 and 3 collections. You can find ZLONK! ZOK! ZOWIE! on Amazon, both as a print edition and a Kindle edition. We focus our attention on creator Bill Sienkiewicz for our Pick 3 choices. In the spirit of the show, we all bring up Bill's cover to Batman #400, but we each have a different book (or poster!) that we would want him to sign.

WCPEver Episode 304 - The Return of DC Comics?
On this week's episode of the Worst.Comic. Podcast. EVER! Jerry sat in on a Q&A session with writer/artist Jeff Lemire. This was a fund-raiser for the Hero Initiative, allowing fans to chat with some of their favorite creators. Jerry asked about Jeff's work on The Terrifics at DC, which seemed to mirror the Fantastic Four just a little bit. We focus our attention on creator Walt Simonson for our Pick 3 choices. The man with the dinosaur signature has a long career filled with desirable books to get autographed! How are we going to pick just one book each? DC Comics made a big announcement at the end of last week, making plans to start shipping books by the end of April, albeit with someone other than Diamond.

We focus on creator George Perez for our Pick 3 choices. Man, it is so hard to keep this to just one book from each of us this week. We try to look into the future and imagine what the comic industry in the future - will we still have comic books, and will we still have comic book shops?

Welcome back to the Worst.Comic. Podcast. EVER! The great thing about doing this podcast with your friends is that we have something to look forward to each week with our recording sessions.

Anyway, we hope that our podcast is something that you look forward to each week. Whether you listen to it on Wednesday when it is released, or you wait until later on to give us a listen. We appreciate everyone who takes the time to give our show a try each week. For our Pick 3 choices, which is sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics, we once again are spotlighting a classic comic creator, as we choose one book that we would want that creator to autograph.

WCPEver Episode 301 - Forging Ahead While Staying At Home
We're back! Not that we weren't going to come back, but the conversation had to be held - what do we do after episode 300? How do we top that or improve on that or even just do another show ever again? But we looked at the news of the week - NO NEW COMICS ON WEDNESDAY - and we rose to the challenge. Can we talk about comics for an hour without any new product? The answer is YES! Of course, with no new comics, we had to do something different with our Pick 3 choices, which is sponsored by our friends at Clint's Comics. But inspiration struck through an email, and a new concept was developed. Each week until this comic crisis ends, we will take a look at a classic comic creator, and we will each pick one book that we want that creator to autograph. For this first week, we look at writer/artist Frank Miller, and his legendary career. From Wolverine to Daredevil to Batman to Sin City to Martha Washington, there is no one correct answer.

WCPEver Episode 300 - A Podemic of Podcasts LIVE
LIVE from Kansas City and Portland, It's the WORST. COMIC. PODCAST. EVER! Episode 300 show! Seriously, when we started this show back in 2014, the thought that we would do this for at least 300 episodes had not crossed our minds. We'll do it for a little bit until we got bored, or it became too much like work. Along the way, some of you started listening. Then more of you started listening. And we realized this could be our ticket to stardom. (Still waiting on that to finally happen....) So instead of recording this panel live at Planet Comicon in front of friends and family, we opted to record it live over the Internet. We got together, talked about some comics, played a game (see the slides here: Slideshow! ), and then took participants' questions about comics, movies, tv, and the other nerdy things in our lives. We want to thank everyone who has been part of our journey to episode 300, and we hope you stick around for even more fun stuff! We would love to hear your comments on the show.

WCPEver Episode 299 - Social Distancing Since 1982
So, since we were last gathered together, the world as we know it turned upside down and inside out. Planet Comicon this weekend? Nope, scratch that, let's push that out to August 14-16. Kids going back to school next week? Nope, scratch that, let's push that out to August, too. We got a lot of thoughts bouncing around in our heads right now, and we spend most of the time working through them. We would love to hear your thoughts on our various topics, so please write in and let us know. (We would offer for an in-person discussion, but that has been pushed out to August as well.) As a side note, we still have episode 300 coming up next week. We can't get together for a panel, so who wants to join us online for the recording of the episode? Details should be posting shortly. We still do have our Pick 3 choices for books coming out today in shops all over. We do want to remind you that your local comic shops still need your support, so contact your store and find out what their policies are going to be for the next few weeks as we figure out what the new normal looks like.

WCPEver Episode 298 - PDX Pop Up Con Preview
We are counting down the days when we can see our friends at Planet Comicon in Kansas City, but before that, we have another con to tell you about. With the postponement of Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle, originally scheduled for March 12-15, the comic community in the Pacific Northwest was left wondering what to do next? For many creators and vendors, they were counting on ECCC as a source of income. For fans, this was an event that they had been planning on attending for some time. So the brilliant team at PDXComicsArts.com decided to put on a comic convention in Portland, hosted at different comic book stores around the city. Within hours of the ECCC announcement, PDX Pop Up Con was up and running. We sat down with Indigo Kelleigh from PDXComicsArts.com and Katie Proctor with Books With Pictures to discuss what it takes to put together a city-wide con in just one week. While we cover a lot of content on the show, this is a fast-moving con, so please click the link above to get the most up-to-date info for the PDX Pop Up Con. As a reminder, make plans to attend the Worst. Comic. Podcast. EVER! panel at Planet Comicon on March 20 at 7:30 PM. We will be in 2505A talking comics, playing games, and giving away great prizes.

WCPEver Episode 297 - Banana Tail Kickstarter with Mark McKenna
Welcome to the Jungle! As in the Checkerboard Jungle! We've got a special show lined up this week, as John and Jerry sit down to talk with comic creator Mark McKenna about his new Kickstarter project, Banana Tail and the Checkerboard Jungle. If you came of age reading comics in the 1980s or 1990s, the odds are extremely high that you read a book that McKenna worked on. Marvel, DC, Dark Horse and many more, if you name a character, it's a safe bet that Mark has multiple credits with said character to his name. In 2003, Mark created Banana Tail, inspired by characters created by his father. Over the last 17 years, Banana Tail has been featured in multiple formats and venues. This week, Mark launched a Kickstarter to help fund the latest adventures of Banana Tail. We think this is a great project and have already supported the Kickstarter, which runs through March 31. Click the link above to review the project, and check out the rewards - specifically the portfolio with Banana Tail prints from the likes of Greg Horn and Walt Simonson. You definitely need more Banana Tail in your life, people! But before we get lost in the jungle, we have our weekly segments, like our Pick 3 choices sponsored by Clint's Comics, and our updated reading list as we work towards our respective #My500ComicGoal.
