Let us know what you think of the winners and of our Books of the Week etc. right here. |

So where's "Bob's Thread" ? :-) I second this motion. Can I attach some kind of "Crazy Cat Person" thread (in Stephanie's honour) to that motion? |

Bob's corner would be awesome, that needs to happen. Would love to talk All New Invaders with Bob!

Now was it me or was there more than a few "wow that's great" through gritted teeth when the crews winners were read out. I especially think Stephanie was fighting back some responses to winners or was that just me?
Also love how excited bobby was when Locke and key won its second award! Could imagine him storming the stage and excepting the award for joe hill crazy Kanye style "in yo face other comics!!!" (It was my pick too though :-). )

You spoke about the donate option which is cool but would you consider a Kickstarter?

I enjoyed the show. Comparing the show winner results with the listener/reader results was interesting. I really like how each person on the show champions their personal favorite books -- the passion can be felt. I really need to check out Rachel Rising, I just need to find a book to drop first!

You spoke about the donate option which is cool but would you consider a Kickstarter? We have discussed it a few times, but is honestly struggle with coming up with the appropriate rewards. Maybe I'll start a thread and see what all of you would be interested in as backer rewards. Thanks for listening! |

I get Saga not being on any lists. It mostly doesn't show up on my personal lists either. It's one of those titles that's SO GOOD, I don't even notice how good it is. I was impressed with titles like Sex Criminals and Rat Queens, but not Saga. When Saga has a stellar issue, well, that's just another issue of Saga. They're all that good. So no hate from me for the omission.
Also, do we need to start a forum petition to get Bob in here? Because I will gladly start that thread.

According to the Podcast all we have to do is blackmail him with presents. EDIT: Wait, we should all just send him selfies of us enjoying the shit out of the forum. Spam works sometimes. |
