“Serving Up Comics” Gene Aversa joins the show to chat about one of Hal Jordan’s most important stories, Green Lantern: Rebirth!

Josh, BComp, and Gene are here to settle it in an over-sized episode of We Got Issues!
The Fatal Attractions crossover is a celebration of the 30th Anniversary of the X-Men and ties in all of the X-Books of the era with some shocking twists and turns! And while a certain 90’s comic loving host (BComp) may be all about it… is it actually good? Luckily, Josh is here to keep Brian in line as they break down how this is actually a non-crossover crossover... and how it shaped the X-Men and Marvel universe for years to come!
The Boys, Punisher, Preacher, John Constantine… all books that have made Garth Ennis a legend in the world of Comic Books… But is it his best work? BComp and Josh are here to make the case that Hitman - the DC Assassin - might top that list. Plus a brief discussion about the Avengers: Doomsday trailers.

Wait?!? The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles aren’t just for kids? Nope! The original comics were surprisingly violent and adult… and their final story is no different. Josh & BComp break down their brutal and heartbreaking last adventure.

“Superman” has finally hit theaters and it's got its lovers and haters, but where do Josh and BComp stand on it? It's a special edition of We Got Issues that breaks down the comics and stories surrounding the film.
The Punisher is one of Marvel’s most controversial characters, but before Frank Castle went all Death Wish on the Marvel Universe, he was a young lieutenant just trying to keep his platoon alive. Josh and BComp are here to break down the man before he became the Punisher.

It’s been nearly 40 years since the first issue of Batman: Year One hit shelves and for many, this is the definitive origin of the Dark Knight.

And we answer a fan’s question about the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie!
Whether you’re a fan of the comic book or the Prime show, there’s something special about the story of Mark Grayson. Is it the superhero angst? Is it the hyper-violence?
