Graphic Book Club: Welcome To The Madness

Posted on by Leave a comment
Superman/Batman DC Compact Comics

Matthew Klein joins Alex K Cossa to kick off the newest audio offering from Graphic Policy, the Graphic Book Club!

Join us for the premiere episode where we decide on the spot to create a new show dedicated to read-a-longs, pick the show name, and the very first book; the DC Compact Comics Adventure Superman/Batman! If you don’t want to pick this specific version of the story up then there are other collected editions available, as well as the single issues available at your local comic shop or online via DC Comics Infinite (you’ll be looking for the first twelve issues of Jeph Loeb’s run).

This episode’s bonus recommendations come in the form of the Travelling Cat Chronicles by Hiro Arikawa and Prjoect Hail Mary by Andy Weir.

Join the conversation!

Exclusive Preview: Crashing #3

Posted on by

We have an exclusive first look at Crashing #3, out this week, November 16th, from IDW Publishing. If you haven’t been reading this series, you’ve been missing out. Writer and creator Matthew Klein had this to say about the issue:

We reach the turning point in the series and Rose drives right through a crossroads! Up until now Rose has convinced herself that every risk she’s taken to save lives has been justified…including relapsing after being seven years sober. Now, we take away every pretense she has used, every coping mechanism she thought would shield her, and force her to confront an unspeakable secret. There’s nothing quite like pushing your protagonist to the limit and by the last page of issue three, readers will see just how far Rose can be pushed.

Check out the full details of the issue and get a look below!
