Description

A motley band of amateur bartenders, avid comic book readers, and critics. Join us each week we ramble and discuss a different Graphic Novel, Trade Paper Back, or Comicbook and attempt a cocktail pairing (cause pairing chocolates and wine doesn’t have enough superheroes involved).

Our last Mai Tai book was intended to focus on the beach aspect of this tiki drink.  We don't have a lot of beaches, but we have some fun spy action. 
Were pairing one of the first tiki cocktails with one of the first families.  This week we are reading the Flinstones.

It's our last book for pride month. A romantic story of love and baking.

It's week two of Pride, and we are reading the book that puts the sass in Assassin. This week we are reading Killer Queens. 
We're back after a more extended break than we intended. It's pride month and we are starting with a follow-up to a book we read last year.  Join us as we read Volume 2 of Heartstopper. 
It's that time of year to read goofy books about men who make an entire town love them in order to spite the dude who stole his girlfriend.  Nothing says holidays like next-level-passive-aggression.
We have come to the end of our grand experiment.  It's the last of our Aquaman books.  Will Alaina ever learn to love the fish-talking aquatic lover boy? Listen in to find out!
Our second to last Aquaman book.  Will Laina every survive? If she does, will she every forgive us?
Laina is a woman on the edge. She may not be the biggest Aquaman fan. But we liked the book ok.   
Week two of our look into Aquaman.  Will Laina learn to love the underwater hero? Probably not, but it makes for a fun conversation. 
This month we are doing a grand experiment.  We are reading five different creative teams take on a  character we know very little about - Aquaman.  We start with the new 52 relaunch written by Geoff Johns.
