Great show. Happy to hear the awesome foursome tickling our ears with their quips comments and (rare but nessary) criticisms. And did it happen? An event as rare as Marvel and DC cancelling crossovers. Did the impenetrable Mr Bob Ryer go over in his lightning round!!!!! Listen and prepare to be wowed!

Great show, as usual! Good to hear Bobby is enjoying Starve, that was definitely one of the highlights of 2015 for me.
Also agreeing with Stephanie - I only just got around to catching up with Kaptara with the first volume coming out. Great fun and I think I'll be reading it month to month from now on.
Just wanted to add my £0.02 to the subject of what I'm excited about for 2016. Nowhere Men is back! Just read #7 today and I just can't wait for the next issue to arrive.

Bob is Anarchy personified, nothing can stop him. Rules don't apply.

I think he cleverly stopped on the edge of time for dramatic effect...
...however if Bobby was right and he was going to continue the penalty must be a watching of the recent FF movie in a Mojo / Clockwork Orange style!

Carol, Huw, and Simon,
Thanks...I think?
(Seriously though, I really appreciate the kind thoughts!)
Here's the inside dope; up until air-time, I wasn't sure if we would be instituting any of our new segments, so I hadn't planned things out in the usual way. Added to that, I somehow had the notion that Bobby would want to do a "Secret Wars R.I.P" sort-of-thing, and so I was scrambling at the last minute to cobble together a Lightning Round. As to the finale, I knew that time was running short, and I do always want to stick the landing, but not so much this time! Bobby was right, in that I did have more to say, but it would have only been an extra sentence designed to open a group discussion, so I used the Orson Welles-ian dead-air approach to the best effect I could. Having been caught out, what could I do but continue to rant!

Enjoyed the show. On a personal note to Steve, I say biopic the same way. Don't change. Keep fighting the system.
