It's a real history lesson this week as John Freeman of Down the Tubes, Crucible and many more joins Vince, Dan and Tony to talk about all things comics. Theres talk about the latest webcomic site Tapastic and its benefits for comic book creators, Johns own creations over the years and everyone has a reminiscing session about the books they had access to and read when they were kids. If you're in the mood for some history about the UK comic scene then this is the episode for you. Also theres some proper talk about the Lakes International Comics Fest, Vince attempts to say the name Alan Moore in the sexiest way possible, Tony tells us whether he is allowed out of the country for NYCC and Dan reveals he's been watching more violent 80s action films.
It's an episode which is also a time paradox by itself - so get ready for timey wimey nonsense galore!
PLUS don't miss our competition where you can win goodies signed by Alan Moore himself!! Listen now and find out more!
