#22 Comic Book Unions, Waititi & Jodorowsky, and Rocks
Another busy week! This week the gang gets to talk about the comic book union forming in Image Comics and how it might affect the rest of the industry. Later they have a discussion about Taika Waititi's upcoming adaptation of Jodorowsky's classic graphic novel, the Incal. During that discussion the group discusses some controversy in Jodorowsky's past. Rounding out the important news is the fact that publisher Bad Idea is giving rocks if you send in a limited collectors pin. Seems like a bad idea. Finally, Marcus recommends Klaus, the origins of Santa by Grant Morrison and Dan Mora.
