The lads ease into the new year with another free-form discussion. Just because the gift-giving season has passed doesn't mean that all the present opening is over. Mike opens a swag-filled envelope from an Image creative team live on air (or our closest equivalent) and then leads the discussion into the pros and pros of partaking in Fantagraphics's recent "Fanta Bucks" promotion, with stops along the way to talk some Peanuts, Donald Duck, Nancy, and Fukitor. Greg wonders about nature versus nurture in artist families like the Romitas, Kuberts, Buscemas, Hernandez, and the Zaffinos family. They both dissect the first volume of "SAM" from Cinebook, and compare notes on recent TV viewing: The Flash, Gotham, and The Wire. All that and more in this week’s episode!
